CAIR to Condi: Please Help the Children!

The unindicted terror co-conspirators at CAIR continue to churn our their propagandist bilge via the PRNewswire. Apparently fewer media outlets are buying their anti-Israeli drivel.

A prominent national Islamic civil rights and advocacy group today called on Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to help evacuate two American children trapped under Israeli bombardment in the Gaza Strip.

The Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is seeking State Department help for the two American children, ages six and three, whose father gradated from George Washington University in Washington, D.C. The children were born in the District. Friends of the family contacted CAIR seeking help. (Photos of the family are available from CAIR.)

Reached by phone in Gaza, the father said Israeli bombs had fallen as close as 100 feet from the family's house in Beit Hanoun. He said he has been in touch with the U.S. Consulate in Jerusalem, but that no evacuation of American citizens was offered.

An unknown number of other American citizens are similarly vulnerable to Israeli attacks in Gaza. CAIR has attempted to contact American officials in the area.

In a letter to Secretary Rice, CAIR Executive Director Nihad Awad wrote: "We ask that you intervene personally to ensure that these American children, and all other U.S. citizens and their accompanying family members, are safely evacuated from areas under Israeli bombardment."

Curious how CAIR fails to name the children or their father. What have they got to hide?

The rest of their release is chock full of slanted media accounts and other alarmist verbiage.

More than 650 Palestinians have already been killed in recent Israeli attacks. Israeli bombs have also targeted mosques, schools, universities, medical personnel, homes, and a Baptist church.

If indeed they have targeted those places, it's simply because that's where the Hamas terrorists are hiding.

If you would like to be of assistance, the hotlines are now open!
