CAIR Slanders Robert Spencer...Again

After recently making false claims about Robert Spencer on Fox News the other week, the Council on American-Islamic relations is at it again...attempting to defame him. This time they have posted a PDF document on their website which claims to expose Spencer's "lies" and reveal that he is in fact a conniving hatemonger.

As Spencer himself says at Jihad Watch:

"There's just one problem: as Mary McCarthy famously said about Lillian Hellman, "Every word she writes is a lie, including and and the." This windy hit piece even gets my name wrong, and if there is even one true statement in it, I haven't found it yet.

By posting this ludicrous piece, CAIR has signed on to the contention that Hugh Fitzgerald and I are one and the same -- which will come as quite a surprise to all the people who met us both at the David Horowitz Freedom Center's Restoration Weekend last year. CAIR has likewise signed on to the pdf's most glaring leap of logic: it contends both that I secretly support Osama bin Laden and the global jihad, and at the same time that I think all Muslims are terrorists who want to kill Americans. Can't have your cake and eat it too, Ibrahim."
