Those who are celebrated by the Left today for hating Trump more vociferously and obnoxiously than the next Leftist don’t have clean hands themselves.
“Virginia Lawmaker Connected to Anti-Semitic Groups,” by Mikhael Smits, Washington Free Beacon, May 21, 2019:
A member of the Virginia legislature and former volunteer for Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D., Mich.) is connected to multiple anti-Semitic organizations and is the son of a Hamas fundraiser.
Del. Ibraheem Samirah (D.)—who received sympathetic national coverage this week after alleging harassment for his Muslim faith at a town hall—has supported multiple virulently anti-Semitic and anti-Israel organizations, once speaking at a Hamas-affiliated conference.
Samirah is a vocal supporter of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement, which seeks to use economic and political pressure against Israel. In a 2014 Facebook post, Samirah urged friends to support the BDS movement while Israel was “most exposed.”
As a student at American University and then Boston University, Samirah was an active member of Students for Justice in Palestine. He credits the organization with helping convince students that “Israel REALLY sucks.”
SJP relies heavily on American Muslims for Palestine, of which Samirah is also a part, for funds and logistics. According to 2016 testimony from Jonathan Schanzer of the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, “AMP is arguably the most important sponsor and organizer for Students for Justice in Palestine.”…
“Ibraheem Samirah’s Donors Are Named In Israeli Government’s Report ‘Terrorists In Suits’ For Hamas Financing,” by Patrick Howley, Big League Politics, February 12, 2019:
RICHMOND — Democrat Virginia 86th district delegate candidate Ibraheem Samirah accepted campaign contributions from Osama Abuirshaid and Rafeeq Jaber.
Osama Abuirshaid and Rafeeq Jaber are listed as donors to Samirah’s delegate campaign, according to the Virginia Department of Elections. Samirah is up for delegate on February 19th, running against Republican Air Force veteran Gregg Nelson. Samirah erased his state senator Jennifer Boysko’s endorsement after his anti-Semitic posts came to light.
Both of these men — Abuirshaid and Jaber — were named by the Israeli government in a February 3 report on the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement’s links to terrorism. Both of these men, Osama Abuirshad and Rafael Jaber, are top-ranking officials of the American Muslims for Palestine (AMP).
The AMP is spun off from a group that was found guilty by a federal court of providing financial aid to Hamas. Abuirshaid and Jaber were also part of that parent group.
Samirah was the featured speaker at this past November 22-24 conference for the American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), which is named in the Israeli government’s report “Terrorists In Suits.” The AMP is alternately based in Falls Church, Virginia or Illinois, according to differing official addresses. Linda Sarsour was also a featured speaker at this conference….
“Muslim lawmaker protests at Trump event: ‘You can’t send us back!,'” by Erick Ortiz, NBC News, July 30, 2019:
A Virginia lawmaker, who is Muslim, shouted “you can’t send us back!” briefly interrupting President Donald Trump during an event Tuesday commemorating the 400th anniversary of Virginia’s first legislative assembly.
Ibraheem Samirah, a Democrat elected this year to the state House of Delegates, halted Trump’s speech with a one-man demonstration as he held a sign that read “deport hate,” “reunite my family” and “go back to your corrupted home.”
Video from the Jamestown event showed Samirah being led out as some in the audience clapped at his removal while chanting Trump’s name.
In a statement later posted to Twitter, Samirah defended his actions, writing that “nobody’s racism and bigotry should be excused for the sake of being polite.” He added that while he was born in Chicago, his family came to the United States as Palestinian refugees and that his father in 2002 was “forced to literally ‘go back'” after he was denied re-entry following a visit to Jordan….

Always so rich when any Muslim brings up human rights of any kind since Islam and its deluded followers have, from the get-go, been destroyers of human rights.
As an example, think the Muslim world on its own could have ever created documents like the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation, the Northwest Ordinance, the Constitution, Amendments to the Constitution such as the First, Second, Thirteenth and Fourteenth?
Not a chance. Not a snowball’s chance in Hell. And thus we see again both Islam’s hypocrisy and its use of freedom pioneered by others with the overall intent to eventually destroy liberty while in full hypocritical mode.
Islam, thy names are both hypocrisy and parasitism. Repulsive double standards as well. Quite the legacy, but a fitting and accurate legacy for the worst religion of all time.

or The UN declaration of Human Rights-was no good for muslims–they came up with their own Cairo human rights

Hey Wellington….Think the muslim world could have created…….????
No of course not and taking a look at history the only thing they have created is CHAOS…not only in their world but in the whole world…..Today the world’s problems lies at the feet of the muslim world …On there are a couple of other areas out there who are rattling things but looking closely one can see the Islamic trail all over the world and I am do tired of hearing that….. the few are making the whole look bad…. if that’s the case then why is the “Whole” not doing something to thwart the. “Few”.They are silent still following their leader with his murderous so called “perfect man” image with all the aches and pains it causes persecution and persecution without Islam and just look at what’s happening in the west….Are Muslims the only voters who are putting Muslims in office? I don’t think so .
IF A MUSLIM BELIEVES IN AND PRACTICES WHAT IS TAUGHT FROM THE KORAN, HADATH ETC. THEN HOW CAN THAT SAME MUSLIM, IF ELECTED TO ANY OFFICE, UPHOLD OUR CONSTITUTION AND THE AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE.???

I commented on this article before, on a different site. The editor of that site referred to Sanirah as a “Palestinian-Amerian” legislator.
I told him that he was doing the same amount of harm as the one who interrupted PRESIDENT TRUMP by callin this goon “palestinian” There ain’t no palestine ! They , palestinians, were created by Yasser Arafat to raise money, which he promptly stole a big hunk of.
That’s as calling someone a muslim-American. No way ! That so called, 6th century religion can coexist with the freedoms given by our constitution
My comment was deleted. Evidently, there was a muslim next to the snake in the stove wood.

The Islamic movement is attractive to leftists, because it gives them a way to make anti-Semitism and anti-Democracy and anti-Americanism socially acceptable, “salon-fähig” as they say in Germany. They remind me of pitcher plants, a flower that looks beautiful but the leaves are actually traps for small insects. They arouse sympathy for their alleged victimhood and victim status, all the time plotting to victimize the very people that feel sorry and sympathetic for them.

Your post made me think of the movie “Little Shop of Horrors “. With Islam being the plant.
Angemon says
Can’t you just feel the thankfulness emanating from him?…
Probably related to him being a Hamas fundraiser…
Georg says
Interesting Islam’s been around for 1,400 years but leftists didn’t champion it until after 9/11/2001.
gravenimage says
Well, except for “Palestinian” terrorists…
Georg says
True, but they were more glorified as “freedom fighters” while after 9/11 leftists decided to really get on board with the movement.
gravenimage says
Grimly true, Georg.

Virginia: Muslim lawmaker who disrupted Trump speech had Hamas financiers as donors, wrote anti-Semitic posts
……………………….
Given the fact that Ibraheem Samirah was protesting a rally celebrating 400 years of democracy in America, this should not surprise.

“The suspect, who has also not been named, is reportedly of Eritrean origin.”
Not Sudden Jihad Syndrome, is it? Naw. Can’t be.
Georg says
Curious to know how “racist” the powers that be would appraise it were these instances indigenous Europeans hucking Muslim children and women in front of trains when they so felt like it.

Morant and an associate were in 1901 charged with the cold blooded murders of civilian prisoners, court-martialled, found guilty, and executed by firing squad.
Their brutality was similar to that of various notorious Nazi murderers, which aroused similar revulsion during and after WW2.
Hardly appropriate role models, wouldn’t you agree?
Anton Savarese says
This Islamist is on a terrorist watch list..
He has a long history of providing material support for anti-Semite organizations, and so on, and so on, and so on..
He over stayed his Visa, and then secured a fake Visa..
Why is he still here?
