Ten Palestinian families are claiming they have lost a collective total of 1,000 family members in a press conference hosted by the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
However, there is no way the various news outlets such as WABC or Scripps could verify this.
Additionally, the families do not want to revel their full names, making it impossible for anyone else to verify the claims.
Ola and the other Palestinian American families Scripps News spoke with for this story asked us not to use their full names out of fear for their safety.
In a manner similar to a previous CAIR-sponsored claim of a Minnesota family losing 30 members in Gaza, they do not tell us where the bombing supposedly happened.
Since October 7, CAIR has been on television 335 times, working overtime to push the October 7 atrocities out of the news cycle and replace it with calls for a ceasefire.
And as is always the case, there is never any discussion of who CAIR is, or where they came from, what they were doing before they formed CAIR, where their money comes from, or what court cases they have been involved in.
TV stations never report anything critical about the Council on American-Islamic Relations. In fact, newscasters do not even try to verify CAIR’s claims. Local network affiliates do not care if CAIR’s claims are true, or even qualify as news.
They just love putting CAIR on TV that much.
“10 Palestinian American families say 1,000 relatives have died in Gaza,” by Axel Turcios, Scripps News, December 20, 2023:
Palestinian American families who say they have collectively lost 1,000 family members in Gaza are speaking out about the pain the war has brought.
Palestinian American families who have lost relatives in Gaza are demanding President Biden push for a cease-fire in the territory.
The 10 families — hailing from New Jersey, New York and other states in the Northeast — say they have collectively lost over 1,000 family members in total in the recent fighting between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
Those remaining are pleading for the U.S. to help them save the few family members they have left.
“Our whole block, all our cousins, our family, my grandparents, all of them are gone,” said Ola, a young Palestinian American from New Jersey.
Ola says 93 members of her family were killed within a matter of minutes during Israel’s current military offensive against Hamas in Gaza.
“President Biden [is] supporting this genocide, and it is not okay, so we demand a cease-fire,” Ola said. “Not just me, all of America, all Palestinian families are demanding a cease-fire.”
Ola and the other Palestinian American families Scripps News spoke with for this story asked us not to use their full names out of fear for their safety.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) brought the families together Tuesday to speak to the media about the loss of their loved ones in Gaza.
Ola’s father, Nasser, calls it an unbearable pain.
“Innocent people sleeping in the house, and they just got bombed,” he said.
The families showed pictures of some of their relatives killed in Gaza. Organizers say the pictures shown are some of the faces of tragedy: children, women, men and elderly — hundreds of Palestinian civilians killed during Israeli attacks in Gaza….
“Biden can easily pick up the phone and call Israel to stop the killing,” said Adam, a Palestinian American who also lost relatives in Gaza.
These calls on President Biden to intervene appear to be growing: A new poll released by the New York Times and Siena College found that 57% of registered voters broadly disapprove of the way the President is handling the conflict in the Middle East….

All those extra wives and the kids they have with the one sack of filthy, evil, sleaze.
Of course, who can trust a liar and mozlums lie because they are psychopaths.
Alex taubinger says
So true. CAIR should be designated as a Terrorist Organization.
somehistory says
Thank you, Alex, and I agree. They probably would have been had bo not stopped trials from proceeding against them.
They support hamas….and funded it during their “holy-land foundation’ days.

“Authorities discovered anti-Israel graffiti on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial early Wednesday morning.”
“Free Gaza,” read the graffiti in red paint on the steps of the monument, accompanied by more splattered red paint. Vandals also painted slogans including “Free Palestine” and “Give land back,” according to DC News Now.”

Ray Jarman says
Both of your opines, Somehistory, are spot on target and I would like to know why laws concerning the desecration of public property such as the Lincoln Monument are not enforced. These thugs should be forced to clean everything that they have soiled with a toothbrush.
James Lincoln says
Yes, Ray.
Arrested, convicted, forced to clean everything, fined, jail time.
Ray Jarman says
James, better than jail time, they should simply be taken to Pakistan or Afghanistan where they can learn the true virtues of Islam.
gravenimage says
Ray–with all respect–the idea that Muslims should be exempt from Infidel courts is I belive a bad idea. They should not be allowed to evade justice in non-Muslim countries.
These Jihadists should be deported *after* serving their terms.
somehistory says
Thank you, Ray. Under different *leadership,* they would be punished.
BTeboe says
Islamists lie when there is no reason to lie because it’s just what they do. They can’t help it. I would not be surprised if these people lost no relatives and if they did lose relatives it’s because Hamas used them as human shields.
abu taleb says
Islamists lie for the sake of Allah. Even though their lies sometimes are so obvious, they will keep lying and are very proud of their success of making lies. They may not achieve anything in their lives, so creating lies is considered as an achievement beside getting rewarded by their evil god.
That was my experience when I encountered muslims in internet forum.

Hamas-Linked CAIR Claims 10 Gazan Families Have Lost 1,000 Family Members, Offers No Details to Allow Verification
…………………………………………..
So each of these families has lost *a hundred* members? Let’s just say I consider this pretty iffy…
How many people can even name a hundred relatives?
KuhnKat says
Is this a result of Muslims marrying cousins?
