Linda Sarsour Endorses Bernie Sanders for President

Breitbart:

Linda Sarsour, an anti-Israel leader of the Women’s March whom critics have accused of antisemitism, has endorsed socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) for president in 2020.

On Saturday, Sep. 7, Sarsour retweeted a Sanders tweet of a clip in which she endorsed him, saying, “”I would be so proud to win, but also to make history and elect the first Jewish American president this country has ever seen and for his name to be Bernard Sanders.”

Sarsour’s embrace of Sanders’s Jewishness is particularly ironic. She has worked with the notorious antisemite and racist Louis Farrakhan, speaking at a Nation of Islam event and defending his organization. Under her leadership, the Women’s March developed ties with Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam, including the alleged use of members of the movement to provide security at Women’s March events. Saraour and other leaders later apologized for having been slow to criticize antisemitism, but did not condemn Farrakhan or his long record of antisemitic hatred.

In addition, the Palestinian-American Sarsour has said left-wing women who support Israel cannot be feminists. She supports the “boycott, divestment, and sanctions” (BDS) movement, which singles out Israel, and defended Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) using the antisemitic “dual loyalty” theme, saying Omar’s critics on the left “masquerade as progressives but always choose their allegiance to Israel over their commitment to democracy and free speech.”

In 2017, Sarsour called for “jihad” against the Trump administration. One of her mentors, Imam Siraj Wahhaj, was  “said to be an ‘unindicted co-conspirator’ of the 1993 World Trade Center bombings,” Breitbart News reported last year. His son, Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, was arrested last year for allegedly training children to carry out school shootings. read more

  1. …well, now we know which one the Islamizers think is the worst for the Country, anyway…

    …Muslims don’t vote in Islamic lands, because the Koran says a!!ah picks their leaders. They only vote in kufir elections for candidates that will either advance Shari’a or damage them the MOST so Shari’a can be advanced, so you can count on the Muslim vote being a bellwether of what’s WORST in American politics…

  2. Well thank goodness David Duke isn’t supporting his candidacy. That’s the kiss of death.

    It’s perfectly acceptable to the dems if a pro terrorism, Jew hating activist who’ll lobby for legislation against Israel gets behind their candidate, but a former KKK member, rarely seen in public, who no one seems to know much about other than he was affiliated with the KKK decades ago….see the difference?
