A disturbing trend is developing that nobody in the media has seemingly picked up on yet.
CAIR, a militant organization that supports radical Islamic thought and terror groups is increasingly inserting itself into the recent debate over border enforcement.
Item 1 - CAIR supporter demonstrating against the Minutemen in Chicago, with the local CAIR chapter actively pressuring officials there.
Item 2 - A member of KFI's news department informed me that members from the Los Angeles chapter of CAIR were notably seen at the march in downtown Los Angeles in favor of (illegal) immigrant rights (which also necessarily implies less border enforcement). [The KFI news staff was easily able to to spot a CAIR spokeswoman since the station has dealt with them extensively in the past.]
Question: Given the fact that the recent immigration protests have been overwhelmingly Latino in nature and have not developed into a broader coalition of immigrants (Asians, Africans, Canadians, Europeans, and Middle Easterers in this country), why is an "Islamic Civil Rights" group so interested in what our policy is in enforcing our southern border?....
It could be reading too much into things, but its still something to keep an eye on.
