The terrorism-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations recently suffered a rare defeat in its long-running push to mainstream Muslim values in U.S. schools, when a federal lawsuit was settled. The group agreed to end its program in San Diego schools, which critics say pressured students to accept Islam or risk being labeled “Islamophobic.”
CAIR was named an unindicted co-conspirator in 2007 in an alleged criminal conspiracy to support both Hamas and the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development. In 2014, the United Arab Emirates designated CAIR a terrorist organization.
CAIR, which touts itself as a Muslim civil-rights organization, claimed with scant proof that President Donald Trump’s election caused a wave of attacks on Muslim students in San Diego schools and throughout the country. The radical Southern Poverty Law Center, which made similar assertions, dubbed it “The Trump Effect.”
In May 2017, the Rancho Santa Fe, California-based Freedom of Conscience Defense Fund (FCDF) sued on behalf of five families. The legal complaint asserted that the San Diego Unified School District’s “anti-Islamophobia initiative,” launched to fight purported anti-Muslim bullying, was unconstitutional.
Attorney Charles LiMandri of FCDF said that, in reality, it was non-Muslims who ended up being the victims of discrimination in the school district.
“CAIR’s insinuation that there are hordes of MAGA hat-wearing students prowling the schools and terrorizing Muslim students is a study in mass deception,” LiMandri said.
“Under the guise of promoting inclusivity, CAIR had unfettered power to target conservative Christian students and smear them as ‘Islamophobic’ if they don’t accept Islam. More broadly, the liberal school board ran roughshod over the First Amendment by empowering CAIR to indoctrinate impressionable children. We applaud our clients for standing up and fighting back.”
The school district’s own data, presented at a court hearing in July 2018, showed only two incidents in 2016 in which Muslim students were bullied, compared to 11 incidents for Jewish students, KPBS reported at the time.
Despite the paucity of evidence, district lawyer Michael Sullivan said the schools nonetheless needed to take precautions to safeguard students.
“They don’t have to wait until a kid is run over by a bus to address issues with the crosswalk,” he said, adding problems could ensue if the district were to sever ties with CAIR. “It would be inappropriate for the district to exclude CAIR, or any other organization, based on its religious beliefs.”
CAIR and its allies have been remarkably successful in promoting Islam in schools.
In the overwhelmingly Christian state of Tennessee, CAIR has demanded that public school students be taught that the Islamic prophet Muhammad is the one and only true messenger of God. CAIR and similar groups are pushing public school systems across the United States to promote pro-Islamic messages in their lesson plans.
Much of the nation’s education establishment has already adopted the agenda of CAIR, providing resources to combat “Islamophobia.”
Examples of programs include the Bridge Initiative at the Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding at Georgetown University; the Islamophobia Research and Documentation Project at the University of California–Berkeley; and the University of Pittsburgh-based three-state Consortium for Educational Resources on Islamic Studies (CERIS). A teacher’s guide, “Islam in Asia: People, Practices, Tradition,” was put out jointly by the University of Washington and the Seattle Times.
CAIR remains very active in the Golden State, with its California branch sponsoring “Muslim Day at the Capitol” in Sacramento on April 22, which the organization describes as “the nation’s largest Muslim civic engagement event.” Participants are encouraged to urge state lawmakers to pass Assembly Bill 331, a bill that would require high schools, including charter schools, to be instructed in so-called ethnic studies, a radical discipline that looks at America through the eyes of supposedly oppressed minorities.

Father God, please open the eyes of the school boards across America to see the demonic scheme’s to undermine our government’s premise regarding freedom of Religion. Let them see that to not allow Christian teaching while encouraging teaching of Islam is basically anti-America. Please expose the deception presented in a pretty package of fairness when it is anything but right according to our Constitution. God have mercy on impressionable children being taught that Islam is peaceful and Christianity is hateful. Have mercy on us oh LORD, Help!
Agreement
Lord, we bind every demonic spirit that rises up against our schools and our nation in the name Jesus. Satan you are defeated, the Father is exalted and Jesus is coming soon. So Father we praise you and thank you in Jesus name Amen!
Amen
Let God’s truths reign supreme, now and evermore, through Christ our Lord.
Amen. in Yeshua’s Name.
Lord, I proclaim your sovereignty and majesty over the forces of deception, manipulation, and lies in our schools, and that you lift up courageous and brave people to counter the forces of anti-Christ voices in schools and those systems that allow this falsehood in schools to operate. In your powerful name, Jesus, amen.
Amen.
Father, I ask that the eyes of the school board members and school administrations through out the USA will have their eyes opened to the truth and they will not cave in to the pressuring to teach Islam in our public schools. I pray You will give them wisdom and clear eyes and minds to see through the veil of deception from Islam. Father, open blind eyes, deaf ears and loose bound tongues, to see, hear and speak against the lies of the enemy who wants to infiltrate our school systems with false religion.
Father, protect our innocent vulnerable from pre-kindergarten to college age children. Protect their minds from deceit. Open doors of truth for them and encourage them to embrace it and not be deceived by the enemies alluring ways.
Father, send teachers who love and follow Your Son Jesus Christ to stand in the gap as well as all Christian leaders who are employed by the schools systems in America. Give them wisdom, tact, and love to stand against the enemy’s assault upon the children.
I ask this in the Name of Jesus Christ Your Son Amen.
I lived 35 years in the middle east and saw first hand the destructiveness of Islam. It is the only anti-Christian religion, it is full of violence, opression and hatred. It should not be taught in our schools except for exposing what it is really like. “Kill the infidels wherever you find them” Koran, Sura 9
Lord, I have seen it with my own eyes, how the Muslim religion is being promoted in the school curriculum. I pray that You protect our children from indoctrination and that You wake up the parents who are blind to what is going on in the schools, not only in the area of religion, but sexuality and the suppression of the right to think for oneself. I pray for more pushback against the forces that have snuck into our educational system, taking advantage of our Constitution to undermine it from the inside. Grant us the ability to accept the Muslim’s right to worship a false god if they so choose, just as we allow others to worship no god at all. Bless Muslims and others who don’t yet know You with a personal encounter with Your Grace. We know You are a God Who chooses, ever seeking the hearts hungry for You. Defeat the forces that block us from You, break down their attacks and expose their agenda for all to see. Strengthen and increase the wisdom of those who combat this infiltration of our schools and give them a victory as clear as Elijah over the prophets over Baal. Let Your light, power and glory shine so powerfully it cannot be denied. Amen.
Amen!
Amen!
I stand in agreement with your prayer, Laura. I prayed it out loud and will continue to do so. Our Father God Almighty is waiting for His people to stand up and valiantly take back territory from the enemy! Especially as Jesus Christ has already won!!
I have not thought about praying out loud! I will start doing that! Hallelujah!
Amen to Laura’s anointed prayer! We pray for Betsy Devos to meet with state leaders and legislators to implement elective studies in the Wisdom of Solomon and other Biblical options at all levels of public education to bring healing to our youth. May our children in a nation under God have the opportunity to be exposed to the love, light, life and comfort emanating from the Father of all creation. Then they shall know the truth with discernment and thereby not be deceived or indoctrinated…but rather stand and walk in the Father’s righteousness, peace and a joy …we pray and call forth equal time for the hearts and minds of all children! Amen!
Dear Lord, hear my prayers. I have read enough about the Muslim religion to be false, and very destructive to our young children. There is only one God and that is you. I pray for the students throughout our country that they don’t fall into the abyss and false teachings. These children are our future. Please with them now and forever.
