The Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), aided by a sympathetic establishment media, has never been known for its transparency. For years, this Muslim Brotherhood-linked organization has successfully maintained near-total silence about its inner workings. A few years ago, when a non-Muslim posed as a convert to Islam, got a job as a CAIR intern, and revealed some of this sinister and unsavory organization’s private goings on, CAIR went to court to silence him. But now, this notoriously sealed-off organization is being sued by one of its own former employees, and in the course of a bitter, protracted dispute, its toxic institutional subculture has been revealed.
The Star Tribune reported Friday that CAIR and Lori Saroya (pictured above), who was the head of its Minnesota chapter for nine years and is now a city council member in Blaine, Minnesota, are “locked in an ongoing, bitter legal dispute that has seen accusations lobbed ranging from defamation to cyberstalking and Islamophobic extremism.”
Saroya “sued CAIR in federal court in Minnesota earlier this week — nearly two years after CAIR dismissed its own federal defamation suit against her.” This is because the hot-blooded folks at the Hamas-linked org issued a press release in Jan. 2022 in which they “accused Saroya of using anonymous email and social media accounts to harass CAIR employees and spread ‘Islamophobic tropes and conspiracy theories’ about the organization.”
This is dubious on its face, as Saroya is a Sharia-observant, hijab-wearing Muslim. And so in her civil complaint, she says CAIR’s accusations are “outrageously false.” Saroya said that CAIR had an “unfortunate record of sanctioning and indulging serious allegations of sexual harassment and discrimination within its organization, retaliating against women who raise these issues and engaging in profoundly dishonest conduct vis a vis the public, the Muslim-American Community and even its own Board.” She added: “CAIR’s defamatory statements about me were intended to intimidate not just me but others like me.”
This follows Saroya earlier allegations that CAIR “maintains a culture of misogyny,” and “has been dishonest and misleading with its donors, whose contributions it has frequently misused for the purpose of silencing critics.” She also stated that CAIR’s “leadership has been dishonest with and breached its fiduciary duties to the CAIR Board, that it has violated basic rules of good governance and mismanaged the enterprise, all to the detriment of the causes about which it professes to care.”
According to IPT News, Saroya accused CAIR of “discriminating against women in pay and other workplace issues, and of ignoring allegations of sexual harassment.” Saroya has “documented a pattern of discrimination and abuse inside CAIR,” which includes “sexual harassment, abuse, and exploitation,” as well as discrimination against non-Sunni Muslims.
CAIR denies all this, but is it really unbelievable that people who believe that Sharia is divine law would obey its often misogynistic precepts? Saroya also charged that CAIR’s national Executive Director Nihad Awad engaged in “a pattern of unwelcome and highly inappropriate conduct” toward her. Even after she rejected him, “Days later he continued this conduct, following her around the site of a conference, insisting on sitting next to her every time she moved to a different seat, and pursuing her at the conference.” For Saroya, this was part of a “toxic culture at the highest levels of the organization and at certain CAIR chapters overseen by CAIR, a culture which was exacerbated by a culture of impunity.”
Saroya said that all this hadn’t come out before because CAIR “spends substantial amounts of donors’ money in order to threaten, intimidate and sue those who have the courage to speak about CAIR’s culture of discrimination and misogyny.” This culture was so deeply embedded that in 2018, when CAIR was considering hiring an attorney named Karen Hernandez as executive director of its Dallas-Fort Worth chapter, Awad was furious, claiming that Hernandez, a survivor of domestic violence, had written a “vulgar and disgusting” article about the issue. Awad declared that if Hernandez were hired, he would “dis-affiliate CAIR-National from CAIR-DFW.” Hernandez’s employment offer was withdrawn.
There is a great deal more in Saroya’s legal filing to worry Awad and company. At last, this sinister gang that traffics so freely in intimidation appears to have encountered someone who refuses to be intimidated. It could mean, at long last, their downfall.
Darren says
CAIR is misogynist??! Who would have ever thought this? 😂🤣
Steve says
Certainly not The Women’s March, the National Organization for Women, or any other mainstream feminist organizations.
Domenic Pepe says
Everybody, including females, knows that Islam itself is very very very misogynistic.
Islamic misogyny is an oxymoron.
And all Islamic women know this and comply with this misogyny and promote it themselves.
Depraved psychopaths …. all of them.
Domenic Pepe says
Islam is the most evil insidious brainwashing scheme every devised.
And it works very successfully with women.
Alkflaeda says
It doesn’t need to work with men, because it is so obviously to their advantage.
TruthLaser says
Don’t you mean Islamic misogyny is a redundancy?
Paul says
Do you remember the “good old days” when there was hardly a Muslim in our country, much less having to deal with the Council on American-Islamic Relations? Please, go back where you came from, our society doesn’t meet your needs and we aren’t changing for you.
Brian Ozzy says
“We aren’t changing for you.” That’s very optimistic but unfortunately also false. America and most other countries have allowed in hoards of the pernicious islamic faith to their great detriment. Muslims have changed most countries, including the US, drastically.
Mo de Profit says
They may be all of these things but mosques are thriving in the uk while churches are dying.
World@70 says
Muslims are trashing your country Mo and it’s a travesty. But from what I’ve read law enforcement doesn’t charge Muslims when they aare backed and urged by Mosque with crimes committed against Christians. Other mistreatment of non-Muslims also seem to go unpunished or are passed off with a slap on the wrist.
Where is that British spirit that shined so brightly during the Blitz, and the evacuation at Dunkirk, the victory at El Alamein and the courage thru all of WWII?
These invaders need to be run out of Great Britain before they change it into the cesspool they came from.
World@70 says
Good Luck Mo, My prayers for the UK.
Mo de Profit says
Thank you for your thoughts, much appreciated. Always remember that not all muslims are horrible, but they have all been taught bad things.
Paul says
I’m more worried about running them out of the U.S.A. than I am about running them out of Britain.
Alkflaeda says
This could have something to do with the fact that, if you leave the church, the worst that will happen to you is that you might be part of a denomination that is good at making people feel guilty. If you leave Islam, it becomes the duty of your erstwhile co-religionists to make sure that you appear before the Judgement Seat in very short order.
Noah Andeark says
I understand that the terrorists at the terror organization CAIR worship the made-up moon-god invented by mohammed, the pig-faced dog, and false prophet of the gutter cult of (p)islam. The way I heard it, this mohammed had enjoyed relations then a meal of his favorite pig, or “dad” as he called it. But mohammed didn’t know how to properly cook pork, and was hit with some “intestinal distress” that he relieved by squirting for terror guide, the koran, into the arabian sands.
This is islam.
Sword of The Spirit says
Well salami lick em. Bout time someone began to slap down that evil snake pit. They’ll probably pay some snaggle tooth goon to fly in from Chechnya or Afghanistan and whack her head off, then carry on with their rape, pilege, plunder, and murder.
Owie says
CAIR supports a culture of misogyny the way the Satmars support a culture of Kashruth, which is to say that that’s the point of it all
David Levine says
Misogyny leads to misery and sometimes death for women- certainly it is a form of enslavement for Muslim women.
Kashrut has been one of the several laws which have kept the Jews as a nation through 2,000 years spread around the world in the diaspora. That we still exist after centuries of oppression, slander, murders, and expulsions, is in itself a miracle as prophesied and predicted in our God-given writings.
Alkflaeda says
Just upvoted you because though I’m not Jewish, I definitely don’t see dietary restrictions as equivalent to misogyny.
internalexile says
A culture of misogyny? Read Nonie Darwish’s “Now They Call Me Infidel.”
staffsgt7 says
I wish I knew how to do what I am going to write – I wish people would infiltrate these islamic institutions as they have done to our institutions and then turn around and sue them, bring their traitorous deeds to light, etc
Luz Maria Rodriguez says
As if the likes of the fool Ilhan Omar could hold a position in politics in her native country, she works to destroy that that gave her privilege.
Spurwing Plover says
CAIR is getting Eaten by one of their own
Alix Brit says
I wish she would leave Islam and tell others to do the same.
Chaya says
The interplay of muslim women’s beliefs in their culture/faith (which let’s face it includes feeling superior to others) with American Oprah TV pop feminism is interesting. While being part of the angry cry bully take over of America many women are educated professionals. They may be are married to a 1st cousin husband in a marriage their father arranged and walk steps behind their husband in public but I’ve heard them they spouting trendy lefty feminist phrases about autonomy and agency. It is such a weird juxtaposition to American sensibilities.
I wonder if the muslim women like the one above want equality with muslim men so they can hate Jews and Christians better together. It is all a very strange brew.
CharlieSeattle says
Deport all Muslims, citizens or not, from the West. Islam is antithetical to everything America and the west stands for.
Islam continues to attack the Christian world for over 1400 years after Christianity was established peacefully in the middle east 600 years before militant and political islam was spawned from hell.
Jeff Bargholz says
I notice that muslima is wearing her wedding ring on her left hand like a kuffar strumpet. An Obvious phony. Somebody should punch that hijab off her face.
henry gondalf says
> It could mean, at long last, their downfall.
Or it could mean her assassination (excuse me, “accidental death” from drug overdose, heart attack, traffic accident, etc.).
Alkflaeda says
It occurs to me that there could be a vacancy coming up for an able, principled Muslim lady as Mayor of Gaza City….if she challenges corruption, she’d have to be better than Hamas.
