CAIR Forces Chicago Police To Scrap Counter-Terror Training
Amid protests from a Muslim civil liberties group, local police training officials have called off an anti-terrorism course for officers scheduled for Monday in Lombard that was to have been taught by an instructor the group regards as anti-Muslim.
The class was canceled this morning after the head of the agency in charge of police training statewide asked the local training agency, North East Multi-Regional Training, not to use the instructor until the state agency investigates his curriculum, said Phil Brankin, director of the local organization. Brankin said Kevin McClain, executive director of the Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board, said the trainer and course would not be used statewide until the investigation concludes.
The Chicago chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations had called for the cancellation of the class, “Islamic Awareness as a Counter-Terrorist Strategy,” arguing instructor Sam Kharoba is unqualified to teach about Islam and has depicted the religion as inherently violent.
“Counter-terrorism training is too important to be left to those who promote a bigoted political or religious agenda,” CAIR-Chicago Executive Director Ahmed Rehab said in a news release. “Our state’s law enforcement agencies should work with credible leaders of the Muslim community to address any issues related to Islam.”
Wild Thing’s comment…………
Obama must be thrilled. This is his America and it sure feels like we are just here to pay for his agenda and for him to have someone to attack and threaten. POS Obama!
That makes sense. Why would CAIR want an instructor who understands who and what the enemy are? What’s astounding is that police officials called off the training to accommodate CAIR. That’s like the wolf protesting the sheep dog guarding the sheep because the dog doesn’t understand and like wolves.
Why is everyone so afraid of CAIR? I guess thr NAACP and other radical racist groups have conditioned people to fear being called some type of —–phobes.
