…The fool, or the fool who follows him?
Ibrahim Hooper is the spokesman for the Council for American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). In other words, he publicly represents an organization that serves as a front to the Muslim Brotherhood and was an unindicted co-conspirator in the covert funding of Hamas in the Holy Land Foundation trial in 2008.
Yet the American media consider Mr. Hooper a talking head for “moderate Islam”, the go-to guy for all their questions on burning issues involving Islam. He is always ready to tell them exactly what they want to hear, reassuring them that Muslims are average, normal, regular people, just like other Americans, except for a few thousand terrorist incidents, but, hey, these aren’t the droids you’re looking for.
Needless to say, Ibrahim Hooper has been much in demand since last Monday’s events on Boylston Street in Boston. Vlad Tepes has augmented a video clip of one of his appearances with some “compare and contrast” material concerning Islam.
It’s time to provide some of that much-needed context:
“We spend our entire lives trying to build mutual understanding…”
Islam isn’t interested in mutual understanding, it’s interested only in everyone doing its bidding.
