[NY Post] Anti-Israel agitators who spread disruption at US colleges and were punished by authorities were awarded checks for $1,000 by a Muslim nonprofit, The Post has learned.The money was given to students who faced penalties for leading pro-Palestinian protests before and after the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7 2023, according to a bombshell report by the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI) and the Intelligent Advocacy Network (IAN).
The cash was awarded from a "Champions of Justice Fund," set up by the California chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations’ (CAIR) as "institutional endorsement," the report claims.
In California, the largest arm of the CAIR web of nonprofits, affiliates in San Francisco and Los Angeles raised more than $100,000 in donations for campus radicals, while the main group solicited $64,000 in donations, records show.
The money was then offered as interest free loans in grants of $1,000 to students who lost "scholarships, housing or other support because of their advocacy," according to CAIR’s website.
In October 2024, CAIR-CA awarded $20,000 in loans and scholarships to 20 student protestors from the "Champions of Justice Fund."
The identities of the student recipients have never been revealed, but the institutions they attend were in CAIR’s literature, and included Columbia University, University of Pennsylvania and Harvard.
