Clinton turning a blind eye to her anti-Semitic, anti-Israel backers

Posted

Democratic Party Presidential nominee Hillary Clinton said last week that Republican nominee Donald Trump turned a blind eye to his anti-Semitic supporters. But as the saying goes, people who live in anti-Semitic glass houses should not throw stones. A look at Hillary Clinton’s supporters shows an extensive list of Jew-haters and Israel-haters. Here is a sample of 11 Hillary supporters whose bigotry is ignored by Clinton and by mainstream media.

Rev. William Barber II: Tried to delegitimize Israel during the Democratic convention by claiming that Jesus was a Palestinian Jew. Barber’s claim about Jesus was a repetition of Palestinian propaganda. It’s one of the things they use to disassociate Judaism from its roots in the holy land. There were no Palestinians during Jesus’ time only Judeans. The name Syria Palaestina was forced upon the Jewish state by the Romans as a punishment for the Bar Kochba revolt a century after Jesus.

Black Lives Matter: In her stump speeches, Hillary has demonstrated her support of the Black Lives Matter moment. Black Lives Matter supports the anti-Semitic BDS movement with this false rhetoric: “[Support to Israel] not only diverts much-needed funding from domestic education and social programs, but it makes U.S. citizens complicit in the abuses committed by the Israeli government. Israel is an apartheid state with over 50 laws on the books that sanction discrimination against the Palestinian people. Palestinian homes and land are routinely bulldozed to make way for illegal Israeli settlements. Israeli soldiers also regularly arrest and detain Palestinians as young as 4 years old without due process. Everyday, Palestinians are forced to walk through military checkpoints along the U.S.-funded apartheid wall. … [We must] build invest/divestment campaigns that ends U.S. Aid to Israel’s military industrial complex and any government with human rights violations.”
