Excerpt:
A senior official of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Nezar Hamze, repeatedly denied the existence of Department of Justice documents tying CAIR to the Muslim Brotherhood. Hamze made the remarks during a televised debate with Clarion Project National Security Analyst Ryan Mauro on NewsmaxTV's "MidPoint with Ed Berliner."
The topic of the debate was the designation of CAIR as a terrorist organization by the Muslim government of the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Hamze, Regional Operations Director of CAIR-Florida, argued that there's no evidence that CAIR is linked to the Muslim Brotherhood or Hamas and is a moderate organization.
