The Ohio chapter of CAIR fired their Executive and Legal Director, Romin Iqbal, when they found out he’s been leaking like a faucet for years. The Muslim advocacy group, notorious for skating close to the edge of funding terror in the Mid-East, really hates rats. Especially when they rat to terrorism investigators.
Deplorable leaking rats
The Council on American-Islamic Relations Muslim advocacy group has their tentacles reaching all around the planet, so it’s no surprise they have an Ohio branch.
What is amazing is that CAIR-Ohio fired its executive director. He got canned for “allegedly” leaking “information regarding the organization’s work to a known anti-Muslim hate group.” That “hate” group is “the Investigative Project on Terrorism.”
CAIR issued a press release to announce the termination of the leaking snitch. An independent forensic expert did an investigation which found “ethical and professional violations committed over a period of years.”
Iqbal secretly recorded CAIR network meetings and passed the recordings along to his own independent expert terror investigators. They can’t have him beheaded or stoned, so settled for termination.
They very carefully avoided naming which “anti-Muslim group” Iqbal had been leaking to in their press release.
Instead, they make a big deal that “after being confronted with the evidence of misconduct, Iqbal admitted that he had been secretly working with the hate group.”
A suspicious package
In the ultimate of irony, according to the official press release, CAIR officials are going totally spastic that “Iqbal was using a CAIR-Ohio credit card administered to him to make purchases from gun and ammunition retailers in recent weeks.” That’s not what they consider “good optics.”
The leaking rat was found responsible after “CAIR-Ohio staff allegedly found a suspicious package mailed to the CAIR-Ohio Columbus office containing parts for an AR-15 rifle.” The only thing which could have been worse was if those parts had been wrapped in bacon and padded with shredded Koran pages.
They instantly dialed 911 and the leaking Second Amendment supporter was told to clear out his desk. “We were shocked and saddened to learn about this betrayal and incredible violation of trust,” Nabeel Raazi declared.
Columbus-Cincinnati’s Board Chair for CAIR-Ohio notes their “first priority is the safety and security of our community. We are now even more committed to defending and protecting Ohio Muslims from the anti-Muslim extremists who will clearly stop at nothing to try to harm us.”
They urge the Muslim community to take the law into their own hands with extra vigilance. Mosques and community centers in particular should “exercise vigilance and review their security protocols out of an abundance of caution.”
Now that a group of terror investigators is known to have tapes of all their meetings, courtesy of a leaking well placed inside source, they’re frantically trying to control the damage. “We recognize the difficulty of receiving this information and the unease it brings. We all feel betrayed by a once-trusted leader and advocate whom we relied upon.”
