FOX NEWS' BILL O'REILLY PRAISES ANTI-SEMITIC REPRESENTATIVE OF HAMAS-RELATED GROUP

CALLS CAIR'S AHMED REHAB A "STAND UP GUY"

(New York, NY) On Monday night, October 25th, popular Fox News television host Bill O'Reilly praised CAIR spokesman Ahmed Rehab, calling him a "stand up guy."

O'Reilly had Rehab on the show to discuss the subject of Muslims.

Not once did O'Reilly challenge Rehab about the Hamas ties of his organization or about Rehab's anti-Semitism.

CAIR or the Council on American-Islamic Relations was founded by Hamas operatives in 1994, under the leadership of then-global head of Hamas, Mousa Abu Marzook. The U.S. Justice Department has linked CAIR to the financing of Hamas.

Rehab, O'Reilly's guest, has refused to condemn Hamas and Hezbollah as terrorist organizations. Rehab has also exhibited anti-Semitic tendencies, claiming that there is a "Jewish control over the media" and that "Jewish film producers… predate on weak minorities by default."

Last Thursday, Megyn Kelly also had a CAIR rep on her Fox show as a guest. That guest, Ibrahim Hooper, has as well refused to condemn Hamas and Hezbollah as terrorist organizations.

Americans Against Hate (AAH) calls on everyone concerned to tell Bill O'Reilly and Fox News to quit promoting Hamas on their station.
