Nihad Awad, the radical founding member and current president of the controversial Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), delivered a chilling speech at the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) conference. CAIR, an organization with well-documented ties to Hamas, has long pushed a dangerous anti-American Islamic agenda under the guise of civil rights. Speaking in front of ISNA, Awad laid out a subversive vision for the future of America. His rhetoric revealed a long-term strategy to entrench Islamic influence in American institutions, politics, and media.
ISNA and CAIR: A Dangerous Brotherhood Nexus
ISNA, much like CAIR, has a deeply troubling history. Both organizations were named unindicted co-conspirators in the largest terror financing trial in U.S. history—the Holy Land Foundation case, where millions of dollars were funneled to Hamas. In Canada, ISNA lost its charitable status in 2018 for financing terrorism. ISNA’s founding mission was “to advance the cause of Islam and serve Muslims in North America so as to enable them to adopt Islam as a complete way of life.”
Despite this well-documented extremist pedigree, ISNA continues to operate freely, serving as a platform for radical voices like Awad, who uses the organization’s reach to push a narrative of victimhood, resistance, and, ultimately, the Islamization of America.
Awad’s Speech: A Call for Islamic Domination
Awad wasted no time laying out his strategy, praising young Muslims for embracing Palestinian nationalism, which he framed as a universal struggle for “justice, equality, and freedom.” While superficially advocating for “civil rights,” his speech quickly took a more ominous turn, invoking Islamic history to justify dismantling the current “system of injustice” in America.
Awad likened modern America to the pre-Islamic tribal system in Mecca, portraying it as a society in moral decay that must be confronted and transformed. He explicitly urged Muslims in America to view their struggle as a continuation of the Prophet Muhammad’s mission—one that involved tearing down the existing social and political order to establish an Islamic alternative.
