  April 20, 2026 12:59 pm The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, called on the Trump administration and Congress to stop ignoring and enabling Israel’s longstanding “war on Christians” after  Israeli occupation forces were shown smashing a statue depicting Jesus in Lebanon .
