On Friday, the DC based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) just had a gala event honouring their 30th anniversary. There, the org handed out the "Gaza Solidarity Award" to a number of journalists.
Among the awardees, someone infamous (not pictured) for years of mocking Syrian regime atrocity victims, denying/downplaying Russian atrocities in Syria & elsewhere, platforming Tigray genocide denial & a lot more.
Absolutely tone deaf from CAIR. At an event labeled "standing for justice."
