ANSWER Coalition (“Act Now to Stop War and End Racism”) is a U.S. anti-war movement that began following the September 11 terrorist attack in 2001 and in opposition to the U.S. invasion of Iraq. It has grown into a massive movement. On January 18, 2003, over 500,000 people attended a rally organized by the ANSWER coalition according to the group’s website. Since their founding, the ANSWER Coalition has participated in numerous protests including the 2014 March on the White House for Gaza and 2016 National March to Support Palestine.

Protesters stormed Union Station, burned an effigy of Netanyahu, and sprayed pro-Hamas graffiti on a statue of Christopher Columbus. Three of the protesters were arrested for “assaulting a police officer” in Columbus Circle according to reports.

CAIR’s antisemitic statements abuses are vast and well-documented. While claiming to fight intolerance and bigotry, CAIR produces a great deal of both in their way. CAIR’s national leader Nihad Awad said he was “happy to see” the Hamas terrorist attack that took the lives of Israeli civilians. CAIR’s CEO and Executive Director for the Greater Los Angeles area Hussam Ayloush said in a Facebook post that Israel should not be “surprised and appalled” that they’ve been attacked. Ayloush also said in December of 2023 that “Israel does not have a right to defend itself” and that Hamas had a “legitimate right” to attack Israel. Zahra Billoo, Executive Director of CAIR San Francisco, said in a Facebook post about the October 7, 2023 Hamas terrorist attack that killed more than 1,200 Israeli civilians that the world was witnessing “decolonization.” Billoo also said in a Facebook post that anyone who is pro-Israel is “pro-genocide.” CAIR also has a documented history of bringing antisemitic speakers to headline their galas and events. CAIR also has a history of ties to terrorism. In July of 2003, Rabih Haddad of CAIR-Ann Arbor was deported by the U.S. government on charges of links with the terrorist group Al-Qaeda. That same year in June, CAIR communications associate Randall “Ismail” Royer was arrested in Virginia on terror charges that were linked to a Pakistani jihadi group. He then plead guilty in 2004. In September of 2003, CAIR’s former Community Affairs Director, Bassem Khafagi, pled guilty to three federal counts of bank and visa fraud and agreed to be deported to Egypt. The Khafagi-founded Islamic Assembly of North America had funneled money to terror activities and had published material advocating suicide attacks against US. These illegal activities took place while Khafagi was employed by CAIR. In July of 2004, CAIR Northern Virginia board director Abdurahaman Alamoudi plead guilty to terrorism. In November of 2008, Ghassan Elashi, director of CAIR-Dallas, and Mohammad El-Mezain, a CAIR fundraiser in New York, were both convicted in the Holy Land Foundation trial for providing material support for Hamas. In 2008, the former Executive Director of CAIR Michigan Muthanna Al-Hanooti was charged with spying for the Iraqi government. In 2010, CAIR board member Nabil Saadoun was deported amid allegations of ties to terrorist organizations.

In 2017, he posted an image on social media in support of the Muslim Brotherhood. He has denied that Hamas uses civilians for human shields, taken the side of terrorist the Hamas terrorist organization repeatedly and said gays and lesbians were akin to people who engage in bestiality. During a 2012 lecture, Suleiman prayed for the “humiliation” of Israel and Jews who support it, stating “We ask Allah to humiliate this Israel, the way that Allah humiliated Beni Israel…We ask Allah to humiliate those who occupy the ‘land of Filastin [‘Palestine’].” In a speech that took place after the October 7 terror attack on Israeli civilians in 2023, Suleiman equated the phrase “I stand with Israel” with “a blank check for genocide.”

Executive Director of CAIR Los Angeles, Ayloush has made incendiary comments about Israel, such as stating that Israel does not have the right to defend itself.

Speaking of Israel during a sermon on December 1, 2023 at a CAIR Los Angeles meeting, Ayloush stated “Imagine we tell Nazi Germany: ‘You have the right to defend yourself against French resistance, or Polish resistance, or Jewish resistance in the Warsaw Ghetto.’ People would laugh at you if you said that.”
