The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, said President Trump’s Threat to bomb Iran “Back to the stone ages” is “anti-Muslim, racist, and dehumanizing.”
In a statement posted on X, CAIR said:
“The Trump administration allowed Israel to drag our nation into an illegal war of aggression, against the will of the American people. Saying tonight that Iranians should be bombed ‘back to the Stone Ages where they belong’ is anti-Muslim, racist, and dehumanizing, and targeting civilian infrastructure is a war crime. When Congress returns next week, CAIR urges leaders to pass a War Powers Resolution, cut off funding for escalation, and investigate Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for war crimes immediately.”
