Austin, TX Just Launched a 'Muslim Heritage Month' Backed by CAIR
[Townhall] The City Council of Austin, Texas has declared January their city’s "Moslem Heritage Month" after adopting a new resolution.



The resolution was sponsored by a slate of far-left advocates on the council, including the city’s first Moslem representative Zohaib Qadri and Democratic Socialist Mike Siegel, the RAIR Foundation reported.

The initiative was largely pushed by the Council of American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), which was designated as a Foreign Terrorist Organization by Texas Governor Greg Abbott
... governor of Texas. Abbott is a Republican. His 2014 Dem opponent, state senatrix Wendy Davis, thought the absolute, most pressing, most important issue facing the state was abortion. Abbott beat the pantyhose off her. His 2018 opponent, Lupe Valdez didn't dwell too heavily on abortion, but she lost too...
in November. Abbott alleges that the group holds connections with Hamas
..one of the armed feet of the Moslem Brüderbund millipede,...
and is working to "impose Sharia law and establish Islam’s ’mastership of the world.’"

As if to formally cement a partnership between CAIR and the City of Austin, the two announced that the city would establish a "CAIR-Austin Day" to be celebrated annually on Jan. 22.

"What transpired in Austin City Hall today should infuriate every Texan who expects their local government to focus on fixing potholes, funding police, and protecting communities—not serving as a megaphone for bully boy-linked groups pushing foreign Islamic agendas," the RAIR Foundation said in a statement.

The city's decision comes as Islam has taken center stage in the Republican primaries of Texas. Political ads ahead of contentious March elections have largely focused on combating the growth of Islam in the state, like this recently-released ad from key Trump ally Aaron Reitz.

"Moslem Heritage Month" is now a permanent installment to be observed on the city’s calendar every January. # id) ?>

3 They going to cover the Muslim Conquests? The same useful idiots who promote this usually are the same ones that cry about the taking of indigenous lands in the Americas.

8 Austin will implode itself at some point. That's a big college they have. But if everything else they do is stupid, the consequences will eventually catch up. This is one of those "consequences". They're no reason to celebrate goat fuckers.
