(Algemeiner) A senior official of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) recently shared a post on social media that read in part, “Hamas deserves a Nobel Peace Prize.”
Zahra Billoo, the executive director of CAIR’s San Francisco chapter, last week on X/Twitter reposted writer and podcast host CJ Werleman, who wrote, “Hamas deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for keeping Israeli prisoners safe from indiscriminate Israeli carpet bombing, which destroyed +90% of all buildings and slaughtered +100,000 people.”
Notably, the post referred to the Israelis kidnapped by Hamas on Oct. 7, 2023, as “prisoners” rather than “hostages” — using the preferred language of the Palestinian terrorist group — and promoted unsubstantiated data points that are even larger than the figures published by Hamas.
