CAIR: Fire Jeanine Pirro for Remarks About Rep. Omar’s Hijab and Shari’a

By Patrick Goodenough | March 11, 2019

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is calling on Fox News to fire host Jeanine Pirro – and wants her show’s advertisers boycotted until it does – after Pirro linked Rep. Ilhan Omar’s wearing of a hijab to shari’a (Islamic law), and said that shari’a was “antithetical to the U.S. Constitution.”

CAIR, which calls itself the nation’s biggest Muslim civil rights and advocacy group, claimed Sunday that Pirro in her program the previous night “falsely claimed Omar’s decision to wear hijab is ‘antithetical to the U.S. Constitution.’”

(Pirro in fact said that shari’a, not Omar’s head covering, was “antithetical to the U.S. Constitution.”)

“Such an open and un-American expression of religious bigotry should be rejected by any media outlet seeking even a modicum of credibility,” said CAIR national executive director Nihad Awad. “Jeanine Pirro should be fired, and Fox News should apologize to its viewing audience.”

“Awad also called for an advertiser boycott of the program until Pirro is fired,” CAIR added........

Fox News in a brief statement on Sunday said, “We strongly condemn Judge Jeanine Pirro’s comments about Rep. Ilhan Omar. They do not reflect those of the network and we have addressed the matter with her directly.”............Critics observe that in countries where shari’a is enforced – for example Pakistan, Somalia, Sudan and Saudi Arabia – so-called hudud punishments (literally “limitations imposed by Allah”) include stoning, limb amputation and flogging for adultery and theft, and the death penalty for apostasy..............To Read More.....

My Take - This is the problem when bean counters take control from the visionaries who created something. Let's try and get this right .... One More Time ....... Islam is not a religion.  It's a medieval political criminal movement masquerading as a religion, and I have some questions:

• What comments made by Pirro is Fox News condemning?
• Were her statements untruthful? 
• What are the views that reflect the networks views?  
• What are they going to discuss with Pirro except how to be politically correct in the face of massive evidence Muslims living in America really do want to destroy America? 

Perhaps they will let me question them and discuss their views for publication?  Even better yet, let's have Pirro do a show about this 'discussion' Fox wants to have with her.  I hope she tells them to shove it and dare to fire her.
