Sarsour

During the Obama era, his administration decided to quash a DEA program to interdict and eliminate narcoterrorism by Iranian client, Hezballah, in the Americas—all of this because they needed to salvage the "Iran deal" in a pathetic attempt to bolster Obama's atrocious foreign policy legacy.

Rather than investigating this scandalous behavior after the story broke, the trained hamsters in the mainstream media have decided there no there, there. Yet another major Obama scandal, like many others, has been ignored. After all, there's no room for an actual scandal when the evidence-free Russian "collusion" fantasy has become the hamster's 24-hour-a-day obsession. An actual scandal involving hard evidence, real testimony, a Islamic terror group, the socialist leaders of Venezuela, and drug smuggling just isn't news worthy, is it?

So ... if, as Obama's spokespeople said at the time, Hezballah is just a moderate Islamic organization, it should come as no surprise that an apologist for yet another Islamic terror group, Hamas, should become the media's most recent darling.

Linda Sarsour, Executive Director of the Arab American Association of New York, has been trotted out in recent weeks following Donald Trump's announcement that the U.S. would, at long last build an embassy in Israel's capital of Jerusalem. Sarsour uses tired leftist memes to tell us that the Palestinans are "oppressed" and that their fantasy country has been "occupied" by the Israelis. I have commented on the idiocy of these claims in a recent blog post entitled "Days of Rage."

Recently, Sarsour used her Facebook account to justify Palestinian terrorism. She wrote:
In context of what’s happening in Palestine in response to the announcement about Jerusalem and in general living under the longest and most brutal military occupation – we have to get a few things straight.

Nobody gets to tell an occupied people how to respond to their own oppression and the continued stripping of their humanity, agency and land whether they are Palestinians or not. Nobody. Oppressed people determine how, when and where to resist. They set the parameters. You don’t have to agree. Unless you have lived in their condition under the boot of a racist, supremacist, violent regime that sees them as less than human – you have no say in this conversation…
Okay, then. Looks like the conversation is settled. Uhhh, no.

Daniel Greenfield comments:
Good to know that the laws of warfare don't apply to "oppressed peoples under the boot of a racist, supremacist, violent regime."

Considering that the indigenous Jewish population of Israel freed itself from the rule of the Islamic colonial racist and supremacist regime, no one has the right to tell the IDF how to defend against the "Palestinian" settlers who are the proxy armies of the Islamic Supremacist occupation.

Islamic terrorists would like immunity from any accountability. They want to smash in the skulls of little girls, fire rockets at schools from kindergartens and then accuse Israel of violating human rights. But standards work both ways, despite Sarsour's "punching up terrorism" nonsense. If you opt out of the laws of war, so do your enemies. Everyone is oppressed in their own minds anyway.

But the Democrats continue to stand by Linda Sarsour, despite a blatant defense of anti-Semitic Islamic terrorism and accusations of complicity in sexual harassment against a fellow Muslim woman.

Because there's nothing the left won't excuse from Islamic Supremacists.
It is exactly this "immunity from any accountability" that all self-professed "victims" demand. Human rights violations? Terrorism? An Anti-gay, anti-Semitic, misogynistic culture? Widespread corruption? A Totalitarian leadership? None of it matters, because—"victimization and oppression."

It's garbage, and every thinking person knows it. Maybe the reason Linda Sarsour and her leftist fans don't know it is because ... well, you draw your own conclusions.
