Amad, Terms like CAIR, ISNA or ICNA are alien to me :) But I am slowly getting acquainted with American Muslim society. I got your point regarding CAIR. Assalamu Alaikum Br. Amad,

Sharique, I didn't mean that you were prejudiced or even Abu Sinan was prejudiced at all :) Sorry if I came across like that. What I meant is that we should be careful when talking about Muslims, whether its CAIR, ISNA, ICNA, or personalities, etc. unless we have strong evidence. I am especially concerned about CAIR (note I have zero official affiliations with them, except being a general member) because of the witch-hunt that is taking place in the media quarters at the behest of the Israeli lobby. We cannot allow ourselves, even inadvertently, to become partners in crime. For Muslims Americans, CAIR is really our only REAL civil-rights organization. waslaam. Br.

I have update the post. I understand that the Abu Sinan's post we linked to gave an impression that we too are against CAIR but let me assure you that we are not biased or prejudiced against any.

We should think ten times before we hit back on our own... in any case, I have a piece on this in defense of CAIR... to be fair, you should consider cross-posting this back to back in order to be balanced inshallah: http://muslimmatters.org/2007/03/28/is-cair-suing-passengers-the-imams-case/ Brothers, I am a bit disappointed by this post.
