CAIR, NY Times smear campaign

Visit our News page CAIR, NY Times smear campaign New York Police Department Commissioner Ray Kelly has been under fire from CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations), and one of America’s top media enablers of radical Islam—the New York Times. Kelly has been attacked for using the documentary film “The Third Jihad” in counterterrorism training. Rep. Peter King accepts award at 2011 National Conference. Have you registered yet? Many of you have seen this film. We promoted it heavily when it was first released. Now “The Third Jihad” is fighting back. This short video is a powerful rebuttal to the smear campaign CAIR and the New York Times have waged against Commissioner Kelly. As you will see in the video, the New York Times ran an editorial that clearly alters a quote from the film to fit its story line and discredit Commissioner Kelly. We’re not surprised by this. The newspaper did this to us with a story it ran in 2010, where it: Misquoted our mission statement to create an erroneous, negative perception of who ACT! for America is. Refused to correct the misquote when we caught them red-handed. And then, amazingly, claimed—without any evidence—that what they quoted was accurate and that we must have changed our website. We’re not surprised by CAIR’s actions either. Its representatives have viciously and dishonestly attacked legislation we have been pushing in state legislatures, “American Laws for American Courts.” You can send a short email here to Mayor Bloomberg’s office expressing support for Commissioner Kelly and outrage at the smear campaign that has been leveled against him. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ACT for America P.O.
