CAIR

In May 2007, the United States filed an action against the Holy Land Foundation for providing funds to Hamas, and federal prosecutors filed pleadings naming CAIR as an unindicted co-conspirator, a legal designation that does not charge a party typically due to a lack of evidence.[38] In 2008, the long standing relationship between the FBI and CAIR discontinued in light of the technical legal designation.[39]

Daniel Pipes and the Anti-Defamation League also criticize CAIR for historical ties to the Islamic Association for Palestine and opposition to Israeli policies.[40][41] Investigative reporter Steven Emerson and author and blogger Robert Spencer also question the financial and personal roots of the organization.[42][43][44][45]
