Translation of excerpts:
The Investigative Project on Terrorism has learned that the FBI has cut all contact with the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) because of growing concerns about the links of the defense of Muslims with network support Hamas.
The decision to end contact with CAIR has quietly made last summer when federal prosecutors were preparing the second trial of the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development (HLF), an Islamic charity accused of providing money and political support to the terrorist organization Hamas, according to people briefed on the question.
The decision to end contact with CAIR is an important policy change for the FBI. For years the FBI has worked with the national organization and its chapters in different states with respect to concerns of the Muslim community about potential hate crimes and other violations of civil liberties in the wake of the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001.
But critics say the FBI has conferred legitimacy inappropriate CAIR official's meeting even though its own investigation files contained evidence of links between the leaders of CAIR and Hamas.
Last fall, the offices of the FBI began to notify the CAIR chapters in the various statements that the FBI would not be able to meet until the national leadership of CAIR in Washington has responded to questions raised by the HLF trial, according to people with knowledge of this opinion.
