That is a very bad thought to even consider having CAIR in control of important phone calls with priority status, especially during critical times. In the meantime, they obviously do have a lot of pull with our enemies. The hate and blame America first crowd has also obviously not considered having the communist Russians or communist Chinese or the world wannabe domination Islamists in political and religious control of your life, telling you what kind of music we can listen to and being intrusive in all of our freedoms and every way of life.
You only need to take their word for what they say they would like to do and achieve. Most of the left and academia, much to their shame, have either sold out and or are found to be lacking in the tenth degree, at least where it really matters. Some of them seem to compete to race to become dhimmis before the others. Any idea that they ever had about human rights would just be a fantasy. People who enjoy their freedoms need to wake up! Many are called but few are chosen.
