(Jewish Onliner) Senator Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) this week petitioned the Department of Education to investigate the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) for running what he termed “possibly illegal” anti-Israel educational initiatives in public schools, following investigative reports that exposed controversial lesson plans sanitizing the September 11th attacks and promoting antisemitic content.
But Cotton’s concerns about CAIR Philadelphia’s partnership with Pennsylvania and Delaware schools may represent just the tip of the iceberg. New evidence uncovered by Jewish Onliner reveals CAIR chapters in New Jersey, Oklahoma, Florida, and Illinois are all actively promoting similar 9/11 educational materials, suggesting a coordinated nationwide effort to influence how American students learn about terrorism and Islamic extremism.
