Sparks have begun to fly in California after a campaign that informs students of the facts about Islam was condemned by the Council on American-Islamic Relations.
Now the outreach by DefendStudents.org, a division of the DefendChristians.org organization, is challenging CAIR to repudiate the "bullying" by Muhammad, too.
It was Edgar Hopida, a local CAIR leader, who told Channel 10 News in San Diego he worries that the campaign by Defend Students will prompt abuse of Muslim students.

"We're also concerned about the bullying that's going on in public schools. So this is only going to spark the fire of 'Islamaphobia,' possible bullying of Muslim students," Hopida told the station.
Gary Cass, chief of DefendStudents, said it was good that the issue was raised.
"Why do Muslims bully and kill Christians, Jews and all other non-Muslims?" the organization asked on its website. "Why do Muslims enslave blacks even to this day?
"The answer seems irrefutable. Muslims are following the example of Muhammad, the 'perfect' bully and racist," the organization said.
DefendStudents' most recent effort was to distribute information to students at Lincoln High in San Diego, not far from where Muslims are building a multi-million dollar mosque.
The material presents a history of Muhammad's actions:
- Muhammad is Islam's "perfect man." His actions are Muslims' perfect moral guide. (Quran 33:21; 68:4)
- Muhammad killed non-Muslims and ordered 65 battles against non-Muslims. (Sira by Ibn Hisham v.2, p.241; Ibn Ishaq 659-660)
- Muslims are commanded to obey Muhammad. (Quran 3:32,132; 4:13,59,69; 5:92; 8:1,20,46; 9:71; 24:47,51,52,56; 33:33; 47:33; 49:14; 58:13; 64:12).
- Muhammad taught bullying/beheading non-Muslims. (Quran 8:12; 9:5,29; 47:4)
- Muhammad was a white man with black slaves. Hadith # 63, vol. 1 ; Volume 2, Book 17, Number 141; Volume 1, Book 8, Number 367; Volume 9, Book 91, Number 368
- Muhammad said that blacks have hearts "grosser than a donkey." Ishaq p.243.
- Muhammad called blacks raisin heads. (Hadith vol.1:662, vol.9:256).
- Muhammad taught that injured blacks should be left to die and be denied entrance to heaven. (Bukhari: Volume 4, Book 52, Number 137).
The statement on the organization's brochure asks Hopida, "Do you renounce Muhammad and his bullying and beheading? Do you reject violence being taught in mosques? Do you condemn the Muslim Brotherhood and repudiate al-Qaida?"
Cass explained that the information is being provided to students because a study indicated that 51 percent of America's mosques had texts that either advocated the use of violence in pursuit of a Shariah-based political system or advocated violent jihad as a duty that should be of paramount importance to a Muslim. Another 30 percent had texts that were "moderately" supportive of violence.
Further, Cass noted that the latest wave of terror attacks in the U.S. have been by "America-born Muslims or converts."
His goal, then, is to give the message to Americans who may be approached by or subject to the influence of mosque leaders.
The information, which contains graphic and disturbing images of violence, is available online. (Extreme caution advised before viewing.)
Cass told WND that the information is critical for Americans to know. And high school students apparently have a desire for it. At a recent distribution to a school with 800 students, not a single brochure had been thrown onto the ground when Cass and his team left.
Islam is not just another life perspective or religious denomination, he warned.
"There's no reason to try to having an interfaith dialogue with people who are conspiring to overturn your country and subjugate you," he told WND.
"Everyone is concerned about Islam. We believe that this tactic is going to frustrate them [in their attempts] to recruit and radicalize our young people," he said.
While schools in California have been the ministry's operating field to date, Cass said he is ready to go nationwide.
But he noted it's an uphill struggle to spread accurate information about a subject that traditional media virtually ignores.
"I think the media is self-censoring now … because they don't want the kind of animosity directed toward them that these hotels [have been getting]," he said, citing recent instances in which hotels have canceled meetings on the the encroachment of Islamic religious law in the U.S. The cancellations came after "threats" and "intimidation," according to reports.
"This is the question," Cass said. "Are we going to stand up as the home of the brave or are we going to be intimidated into dhimmitude?"
