A $1.35 million libel suit filed by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR)
against Andrew Whitehead of Anti-CAIR (ACAIR), who called CAIR a “terrorist front
organization,” that was “founded by Hamas supporters,” and was working to
“make radical Islam the dominant religion in the United States,” has been
dismissed with prejudice. According to ACAIR’s Mr. Whitehead, who posts at
www.anti-cair-net.org, “I am pleased to report the CAIR lawsuit has been dismissed
after the parties reached a mutually agreeable settlement.”
Terms of the settlement are confidential. However, no apology was issued, no retraction or
corrections made, and
the statements that triggered CAIR’s suit remain on the ACAIR website.
CAIR’s suit was filed on March 31, 2004 after Mr. Whitehead posted the following
statements:
“Let there be no doubt that CAIR is a terrorist supporting front organization that is
partially funded by terrorists, and that CAIR wishes nothing more than the implementation
of Sharia law in America.”
CAIR is an “organization founded by Hamas supporters which seeks to overthrow
Constitutional government in the United States and replace it with an Islamist theocracy
using our own Constitution as protection.”
“ACAIR reminds our readers that CAIR was started by Hamas members and is supported by
terrorist supporting individuals, groups and countries.”
“Why oppose CAIR? CAIR has proven links to, and was founded by, Islamic terrorists.
CAIR is not in the United States to promote the civil rights of Muslims. CAIR is here to
make radical Islam the dominant religion in the United States and convert our country into
an Islamic theocracy along the lines of Iran. In addition, CAIR has managed, through the
adroit manipulation of the popular media, to present itself as the ‘moderate' face of
Islam in the United States. CAIR succeeded to the point that the majority of its members
are not aware that CAIR actively supports terrorists and terrorist supporting groups and
nations. In addition, CAIR receives direct funding from Islamic terrorists supporting
countries.”
“CAIR is a fundamentalist organization dedicated to the overthrow of the United
States Constitution and the installation of an Islamic theocracy in America.”
CAIR claimed these statements were false, that Mr. Whitehead made them “with
knowledge of their falsity,” and that the statements were actionable because
“they impute the commission of a criminal offense.” CAIR claimed injury to its
“standing and reputation throughout the United States and elsewhere,” and sought
$1 million in compensatory damages, $350,000 in punitive damages, plus legal fees and
interest.
On June 20, 2005, and following submission of discovery requests by Mr. Whitehead’s
counsel, Reed D. Rubinstein of Greenberg Traurig LLP’s Washington, D.C. office,
seeking information regarding CAIR’s finances, its relationship to Hamas, and its
ties to Saudi Arabia and other Islamic radicals, CAIR dropped nearly all of its original
claims. The revised complaint alleged only the following statements to be false and
defamatory:
“Let there be no doubt that CAIR is a terrorist supporting front
organization….”
“[CAIR] seeks to overthrow constitutional government in the United
States….”
Subsequently, Mr. Whitehead’s counsel filed papers demonstrating the extensive links
between, and actions taken by, CAIR and its principal leaders with and on behalf of Hamas
terrorists, foreign Islamic radicals, and domestic Islamic extremists. Among other things,
the pleadings showed how CAIR had used its website to exploit the 9/11 atrocities,
funneling money to the notorious Hamas front group the “Holy Land Foundation”
(HLF). HLF, organized and operated by a CAIR-Austin, Texas board member who was a close
and long-time associate of CAIR’s executive officers, financed Hamas, and was shut
down by the United States government in December, 2001. HLF was also shown to have
provided funds to CAIR.
Shortly after Mr. Whitehead’s counsel filed these papers, and shortly before a court
hearing on Mr. Whitehead’s request for access to CAIR’s financial data and
relationship with Hamas and Islamic radicals was to be held, the case was settled and
dismissed with prejudice.
