On Friday’s O’Reilly Factor, Juan was sitting in for Bill, and one of his guests was Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, founder of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy. Dr. Jasser is to CAIR like Thomas Sowell is to Al Sharpton and his National Action Network. In other words, Dr. Jasser knows how destructive and discredited CAIR is, and how bad they are for the legitimate discussions and debate that NEED to be had in America about the roots of Muslim theo-political ideology.

The story of NPR’s firing of Juan is well known, as is Megyn Kelly’s take-down of CAIR’s Ibrahim Hooper. CAIR and Ibrahim Hooper are just the same kind of race-pimps that we see in Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, NAACP and the like. The more they can keep their people down and dependent, the more they stand to profit. Dr. Jasser and men like Thomas Sowell are so far past the victimhood that is so pervasive in groups like the NAACP and CAIR. It’s refreshing to hear this discourse.

Only good things can come of this now-open dialogue. We cannot assuage our fears of Muslims in traditional garb on airplanes until Muslims themselves begin to admit it’s a Muslim problem and it has to be addressed in their community – fighting the extremists and destroying the Islamic theo-political ideology.
