CAIR Paid Students To Vandalize College Campuses

Colleges and universities have used an extremely light touch when punishing students who vandalized, occupied, or even assaulted fellow students on campus. The pro-Hamas protests upended colleges and universities because these entitled brats hated Jews and loved destruction. 

For that, few received any punishment at all. 

But when violations of campus rules or laws were so egregious that students lost grants or scholarships or were kicked off campus, CAIR apparently decided to step in and help out.

You can’t make this up. But you can subsidize it with your tax dollars, since CAIR is a tax-deductible charity. Even if you disapprove of everything CAIR stands for, you are paying taxes, so they and their donors don’t have to. 

Anti-Israel agitators who spread disruption at US colleges and were punished by authorities were awarded checks for $1,000 by a Muslim nonprofit, The Post has learned.

The money was given to students who faced penalties for leading pro-Palestinian protests before and after the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7 2023, according to a bombshell report by the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI) and the Intelligent Advocacy Network (IAN).

The cash was awarded from a “Champions of Justice Fund,” set up by the California chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations’ (CAIR) as “institutional endorsement,” the report claims.

Nonprofits are the preferred vehicle for anti-American groups to collect funds, spread propaganda, and organize their followers. You and I tend to think of nonprofits as “charities,” but the category is far broader and is intended to encompass groups working for the public benefit. 

Benefits such as funding violence, apparently. 

“These programs support students after acts of criminality and violence, creating a reward structure for building the most militant face of the movement. This is how ideologies metastasize,” NCRI founder Joel Finkelstein warned to The Post.  

Ibrahim Bharmal accosted a Jewish student during a “die-in” to protest the bombing of a hospital in Gaza in October, 2023. He later received funding from CAIR.

One testimonial published by CAIR in literature about their fund read: “The consequences of my pro-Palestine advocacy have been swift and severe. As a safety Marshal at a protest against the bombing of the Al-Shifa hospital, I was doxxed by Zionist students, leading to my information being spread to the far-right media.

“I have endured relentless death threats, lost my summer law firm offer and its accompanying diversity scholarship. This ordeal has set me back at least $115,000 in lost income and legal fees, an overwhelming burden for my working class family.”

Although the quote is anonymous, the details match those of Ibrahim Bharmal. He was arrested on Oct. 18 at Harvard Business School campus after participating in a “die in,” the night after Al-Shifa hospital was bombed in Gaza. At the time he was volunteering as a safety marshal.

“Diversity scholarship.” Gag me with a spoon, as they said in my youth. 

Most people have no idea how organized and coordinated these “protests” are, or how often the people involved have gone through extensive training by protest professionals. There are massive quantities of money that flow through left-wing nonprofits and affiliated groups, and it is no surprise that there is an equivalent to the Palestinian “Pay to Slay” program here in the US. 

CAIR leaders backed many of the anti-Israel encampments. On the second day of a student encampment at University of California Riverside in the spring of 2024, Hussam Ayloush, executive director of the Greater Los Angeles Area office of CAIR led a teach-in and gave a talk to the anti-Israel protestors, according a report.

CAIR doled out funds to students who had been arrested after participating in anti-Israel protests at college campuses across the US.

CAIR says it is the largest Muslim charity in the US, receiving hundreds of thousands in donations from progressive nonprofits, including Tides Foundation and the California-based Weingart Foundation.

It claims that less than 1% of its funding comes from outside of the US. However, when an ex-employee, Lori Saroya, filed a lawsuit against CAIR for defamation, which asked for details on who their foreign sources of funding were, and a judge ruled they had to disclose them, the charity abruptly settled the case out of court.

The charity had previously been awarded $500,000 from Saudi Prince Alwaleed ibn Talal, according to a 2002 report in Arabnews.com

CAIR’s claim to get almost all its funding from within the US is, to say the least, questionable. Even if checks are not cut outside the United States, money can be laundered in any number of ways. I can think of a bunch off the top of my head, none of which would be illegal or take more than a few minutes to accomplish. 

Where the money comes from, though, is much less important than exposing the networks that fund and promote these “protests” that undermine US institutions. What you see in the streets and on college campuses is organized, well-funded, and has the goal of destabilizing the United States. 

It’s not just the anti-Israel protests. It’s No Kings, anti-ICE protests, BLM…the works. 

That’s how we have arrived to this, in the heartland of our country.

Americans have been forced to fund our own destruction as a country. NGOs have been a key component of the infrastructure that has led us to this perilous moment. How many nonprofits aided the migration of anti-American zealots? How much goes to funding anti-Western propaganda? How many nonprofits fund lawsuits aimed at weakening our culture? How much flows to academic institutions to pervert our academy?

CAIR is a bit player compared to the whole complex of anti-Western NGOs. And NGOs are now a very big business in the United States, making up about 7% of our GDP and 10% of our workforce. Some are anti-American in purpose, others are scams to rip off taxpayers, and far too few are genuine charities that do good works. 

If you think tax loopholes only benefit the wealthy and big corporations, you are sorely mistaken. You and I are funding our own destruction.
