WFB: Marc Lamont Hill, a professor at Temple University and prominent left-wing commentator, appears to accuse Israel of poisoning Palestinian water in a newly surfaced video.
The video is from the U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights (USCPR) conference held on Sept. 28, according to the Jewish Journal.
“I can’t just think about political prisoners here in the states; I have to think about political prisoners in Palestine,” Hill said. “And I have to ask questions about what the face of those prisoners look like, and what legitimate resistance looks like.”
Hill also said that people who struggle tend to favor a “civil rights tradition” that “romanticizes nonviolence.”
“How can you romanticize nonviolence when you have a state that is at all moments waging war against you, against your bodies, poisoning your water, limiting your access to water, locking up your children, killing them?” Hill asked. “We can’t romanticize resistance.”
The Jewish Journal noted that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas previously accused “certain rabbis in Israel” of telling “their government that our water should be poisoned in order to have Palestinians killed,” although he later walked back his remarks.
“So for me,” Hill added, “part of the challenge is when we start saying we should overcome and holding hands and sit-ins, which is an important and indispensable strategy, I would never disrespect that strategy. We just can’t fetishize that strategy. We can’t fetishize that here in the states.”
Hill said the “hands up, don’t shoot” protest against the 2014 shooting of Michael Brown was “problematic.”
“This ain’t the posture I want to have against a violent state,” continued Hill, who said he would rather go “Leila Khaled-style.”
Leila Khaled, a Palestinian, was convicted of terrorism for her involvement in an airplane hijacking and an attempted hijacking. Khaled was part of a group that hijacked a flight from Rome to Athens in 1969. The plane was blown up after passengers were evacuated. One year later, she participated in the simultaneous hijacking of four planes and was arrested before being released in an exchange for hostages held by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. more here
I remember when this prick came on Bill O’Reilly show, years and years ago. He was a prick then. And he was never invited back……….. just like Juan Williams would host for Bill on rare occasions, until he made a major slip-up, and was never invited back. I for one miss Bill O’Reilly.
Hill has never been more than a traitorous, fast-talking used car salesman posing as a journalist in order to provide cover for the sedition the left loves to use so much.
His comments give comfort to the enemy.
Call him out as an enemy combatant.
Marc Lamont Hill, like many of his militant bros and sisters, is just itching for a violent confrontation as a response to what he views as an imbalance of power.
Ga’head black and brown peoples. Hill will be watching from the comfort of his Manhattan penthouse.
I notice that he and the repulsive Joy Reid have the same beady eyes. They give the same look you’ll get from an attacking animal.
Hill presents that rare combination of deranged thought combined with inarticulate speech. A pure winner for CNN!
Of course he”s a psycho. Why else would the left made him famous?
Smack this shit down now my friends, or fight a civil war later.
