32 HOUSE DEMS SIGN ANTI-ISRAEL LETTER FROM PRO-HAMAS, PRO-BDS GROUPS
frontpagemag ^ | June 30, 2017 | Daniel Greenfield

There are few surprises here. Just the inevitable descent of the Democrats into the fever swamps of hatred and extremism.

According to the anti-Israel group behind the Congressional letter, “The effort to gather signatories to the letter was supported by a coalition of human rights organizations including U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights, CODEPINK, Jewish Voice for Peace, and American Muslims for Palestine.”

American Muslims for Palestine has been linked to Hamas. Jewish Voice for Peace, which is neither Jewish nor peaceful, is a BDS group. This is what the Dems are mainstreaming.

32 Democrats in Congress signed on to a letter circulated by a group that even the ADL had described as having its "organizational roots in the now-defunct Islamic Association of Palestine (IAP), an anti-Semitic group that served as the main propaganda arm for Hamas in the United States."

It won't surprise you to learn that Keith Ellison tops this list. Or that Betty McCollum, Earl Blumenauer and Mark Pocan are also there. Pocan recently got caught sponsoring an anti-Israel forum. And is turning into a reliable anti-Israel hack on the Hill.

Then there's Hank Johnson, who called Jews termites, Barbara Lee, James McGovern, Andre Carson, Anna Eshoo, John Conyers, Luis Gutierrez, Peter DeFazio, Marcy Kaptur, Eleanor Holmes Norton, Karen Bass, Eddie Bernice Johnson, Roy Khanna, Zoe Lofgren, Bobby Rush, Peter Welsh, David Price, Alan Lowenthal, Donald Beyer, Chellie Pingree, Salud Carbajal, Gwen S. Moore, Danny Davis, Jackie Speyer, Jared Huffman, Tulsi Gabbard and Pramiya Jayapal.

So there's the usual Prog caucus gang. And a sizable heaping of Congressional Black Caucus people. Anyone with a leftover crush on Tulsi Gabbard as the one good Dem would do well to drop it.

A particular note of disgrace here has been struck by Alan Lowenthal. The leftist won his last race by a limited margin. It remains to be seen what the voters will think of his role in this.

And Jews will continue to pull the Dem handle election after election. I have to wonder how many secretly hope for the destruction of Israel.

I’ll bet most are members of the Trump Derangement Syndrome Caucus who are trying to get their shrink pals to say PRESIDENT Trump is crazy. Definitely a bunch of insane, commie loons.

That is because American Jews unfortunately don’t give a rats behind about Israel’s existence..their #1 priority is Abortion..trust me I know this for a fact. I go to Temple, its near my house so I sometimes attend, the Rabbi’s are ALL for allowing refugees into America, they dont care the consequences

Not surprised to see the Black Communist Caucus on the list. When blacks were feared and loathed in this country, the Jews were the only ones standing up for them and this is how they’re thanked. And the above poster is correct - the Jews will still largely pull the lever for Democrats.

Shame on Gabbard, I had hope, but ultimately Hawaii is all you need to know. The Military crowd should stop giving her a pass.

It's safe to assume that they are JINOs.
