On February 26, 2025, TV stations in the Atlanta, Georgia area reported on the latest Title VI complaint filed against a school by the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
This time it is the Fulton County Public School System that CAIR is accusing of “a pattern of harassment and discrimination faced by students at the District.”
One of the examples of this pattern of “harassment and discrimination” mentioned in news reports is that of a kindergartener receiving a death threat. What the news failed to report is that this contract hit was coming from a fellow elementary school student.[pg. 6]
CAIR is trying to counter the Title VI complaints filed by the Brandeis Center.
CAIR sent the February 25, 2025 complaint to Catherine E. Lhamon, Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights, U.S. Department of Education in Washington, D.C. This was done after the Brandeis Center filed their complaint against Fulton County School System on August 13, 2024.
And before that, on February 28, 2024, the Brandeis Center filed a Title VI complaint against Berkeley School system. This was followed by the May 9, 2024 CAIR suit against Berkeley, alleging “anti-Palestinian, anti-Arab, and Islamophobic discrimination within the district.”
Indeed, the Brandeis complaints are part of what CAIR is worrying about:
We also urge you to reject the requests for relief sought in the August 6, 2024, complaint (“the Complaint”) filed by the Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights, Jewish Americans for Fairness in Education, and the National Jewish Advocacy Center (collectively referred to as the “Brandeis Center” hereinafter). The Complaint asks for remedies that would suppress Palestinian identity, history, and experiences within the District, violating Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. [pg. 1]
Specifically, CAIR is objecting to the Brandeis Center using the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance examples of anti-Semitism as a standard, saying:
Would a campus discussion be grounds for a federal investigation if it examined Israel’s “Nation State” law (enacted in July 2018, to enshrine the right of national self-determination for Jews only6) or other race-based regulations (such as roads connecting illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank which Palestinians are effectively barred from using)?
There is no evidence that a discussion of Israel’s “Nation State” law has resulted in a federal investigation. And it is unlikely that CAIR would ever test this hypothesis, because it would get embarrassed by the fact that the Israeli Declaration of Independence mandates “complete equality of social and political rights to all [of the country’s] inhabitants irrespective of religion, race or sex.”
While this is not the same as “the right of national self-determination,” it is also not what CAIR is insinuating, namely that Israel is some kind of racist, bigoted, supremacist ethnostate.
It is hard to imagine in a sane world that this complaint from CAIR would ever get off the ground.
For example, CAIR is complaining that:
- The school system did not show enough sympathy for Hamas. [pg. 7]
- CAIR uses supposed statements by the Israeli finance minister as an example of double standards, even though the finance minister has nothing to do with Fulton County Schools System. [pg. 10]
- Students were supposedly traumatized by an IDF T-shirt [pg. 7]
CAIR’s complaint is full of biased pro-Hamas statements, such as this:
Israel began military attacks in Gaza a mere two hours after Hamas infiltrated Israel, displacing and killing hundreds of innocent Palestinians.” [pg. 9]
The citation for this claim is an Al Jazeera article that says right in the first line of its timeline of events that Hamas was firing rockets at Israel in the early morning hours. This was a tactic to divert attention away from the breach of the security fence.
CAIR’s complaint also says that the keffiyeh symbolizes Palestinian national identity, recognized in a unanimous 2024 U.S. Senate resolution.
The citation for this is S.Res. 847 (118th), a resolution honoring Wadee Alfayoumi, a six-year-old Palestinian-American boy who was murdered in a hate crime for his Palestinian-Muslim identity in Illinois. This says nothing about the keffiyeh symbolizing Palestinian national identity.
CAIR’s Title VI complaint against Fulton County schools is the latest in more than a dozen such complaints it has made against various universities, and schools in the past year. They all look the same, featuring Jews trying to use the university and learn, while “pro-Palestine “students want to support Hamas and disrupt the university.
The complaints always end the same way, with the university entering into a resolution agreement with the Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights, which consists of an investigation conducted by the school along the guidelines given by the OCR.
And that’s it. There are no sanctions are declared, or fines levied. No one is sent to Leavenworth. Nothing that would justify the sensational impression the news coverage give with details about kindergarteners trying to kill each other.

Islam’s Muslims seek to impose Sharia, Islamic Law, into every society including Western Laws to make Islam supreme and preferential against Non-Muslims as taught in Islam’s Quran(Quran 9:5,29,111; 98:6-7 and more). Moreover, Muslims seek to silence criticism of Islam by eliminating freedom of speech and expression like in Britain. As a result, Islam, its Schools, its Mosques, etc. should be banned for their funding and their teaching of terrorism, discrimination, and violence against Non-Muslims. Allah in Qur’an 8:39 says, “And engage in war with them[Non-Muslims] until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah…”
Islam, a Terrorist-Criminal Enterprise, and its murderous Muslims continually fund, promote, and practice ideological subversion, propaganda, bigotry, discrimination, deceit, supremacy, segregation, hatred, violence, and terrorism as taught in Islamic Law and in Islam’s Quran, and Muslim actions should be legally challenged with a multi-faceted force of Western Laws like Muslims wield against Americans and Westerners(Quran 9:5,29 and more). Like a Foreign Terrorist Organization(FTO) designated by the USA Secretary of State, Islam is a MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATION(MTO) fighting against Non-Muslims and NOT A PEACEFUL religion under Western Law because Islam funds, teaches, and promotes a Terrorist Criminal Organization with Muslims as Terrorists for Allah(Quran 9:5,29; 49:15 and more). Under Islam and Islamic Law, Muslims have the legal right to terrorize Non-Muslims because neglecting this DIVINE DUTY is a Crime against Allah; Jihad means warfare against Non-Muslims to ESTABLISH ISLAM’S RELIGION(Quran 3:151; 9:29; Muslim Law Manual: “Reliance of the Traveller”, o9.0 and more).
More specifically, Islam, a terroristic, destructive way of life, is a Muslim Terrorist Ideology and Murderous, Criminal Enterprise of intolerance, continuous war, discrimination, segregation, supremacy, genocide, polygamy, propaganda, deceit, hatred, incitement, sedition, rape, terrorism, and violence against all Non-Muslims as taught in the Quran(Quran 2:216; 4:65,89,95; 5:14,64; 8:12,39,74; 9:5,21,29,36, 41,49,88,111,123; 21:92; 49:15 and more).

Filing frivolous lawsuits is a crime. cair should be investigated by the new guy at the FBI and the agents he says are the ‘good’ guys.
Lying on official papers is also a crime. all documents filed with a court are “official papers.”
cair should be investigated by the new lady at the DOJ.
Brenrod says
CAIR should have long been declared a terrorist entity because it supports Hamas. Please rid our nation of this depraved element.
OLD GUY says
I wonder if CAIR receives federal funding? If so DOGE should have a look.
