Response to comment by Sami Ahmed

This is in regards to comments by Sami Ahmed. It is fine to say "discrimination, misinformation, and hatred that people are spreading", and it would have been nice to back that up.

Since your comments are in response to Daniel's article, can you tell us where is the misinformation and hatred in there for the Muslims? Or any attempt to talk about CAIR and its biases are automatically misinformation by your standards?

I think CAIR is damaging American Muslim interests incredibly by taking the biased view it does, and Daniel is doing a service by pointing that out. It is up to the Muslim community at large to fix the tilted world of CAIR. Perhaps if the Muslims themselves would criticise CAIR more often and openly there would be no need for Daniel and others to shine a light on the obvious tilt in CAIR's responses to events.
