CAIR’s Next Generation Radical
The Investigative Project on Terrorism
Zahra Billoo may be one of the more refreshing new faces among Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) officials.
Rather than following her organization’s habit of engaging in doublespeak, she speaks in plain, and often hyperbolic and conspiracy-minded language.
For that, she is the subject of the Investigative Project on Terrorism’s latest profile.Billoo, executive director of CAIR’s San Francisco office, recently describing herself on Twitter as an “American, Pakistani, litigious, feminist, hippie, anarchist, outspoken, rebellious, socially conscious Muslimah.”
She’s a prolific poster on Twitter, appearing to revel in being provocative:
“What do Saddam Hussein, Osama Bin Laden and Muammar Gaddafi all have in common? They were funded by the US,” she wrote in June. She didn’t mention that her bosses at CAIR solicited money from Gaddafi in 2009.
