Appearing on a “hip-hop” radio show in New York, Ebro In the Morning, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez agreed with the interviewer, Ebro Darden, in his claim that there were “white supremacist Jews” who aligned with “racism.”
According to Fox News, Darden remarked, “How do you have white supremacist Jews?”
“How do you have these individuals who are legit aligning with racism and white supremacy, but they’re Jewish?” he asked. “It’s something that most people can’t wrap their brains around. But it’s a real thing.”
“He then asserted, “What’s going on with Israel and Palestine, while it’s very, very, deep, it is very, very, criminal, and it is very, very unjust.”
Ocasio-Cortez appeared to agree wholeheartedly with these claims, saying, “Absolutely.”
No evidence asked for, and none provided. Israel is “very, very criminal, and it [the situation it has created] is very, very unjust.”
So much for the Hamas Charter, that calls for Israel’s destruction. So much for the Hamas tunnels dug from Gaza into Israel, and the Hezbollah tunnels dug from southern Lebanon into northern Israel, both intended to allow Palestinian fighters to sneak into Israel to kill or kidnap Israelis. So much for the Palestinian children’s shows where sweet-voiced children describe their hope to someday “kill Jews.” So much for the PA schoolbooks in which hatred of Jews is inculcated across the curriculum. So much for the terrorists who murder Jews on buses, in pizza parlors, at Passover ceremonies, hiking in the hills, photographing birds, walking on the streets of Jerusalem. So much for the Pay-For-Slay program, where the families of killed or imprisoned terrorists receive generous lifetime support from the PA. So much for the squares and buildings that are named after terrorist “martyrs.” So much for the three major and three minor wars that have been thrust on the Jews of Israel by their Arab enemies since 1948. So much for the thousands of acts of Islamic terror that Israeli Jews have endured. None of this appears to have made an impression on Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
AOC also seemed to dismiss Jewish claims of antisemitism against some of those attacking Israel, saying, “Criticizing the occupation doesn’t make you anti-Israel, frankly.” But who has ever claimed that such criticism did? It is only when the criticism of Israel becomes so one-sided, so oblivious to history and the truth, so venomous in tone, that we have a perfect right to call that beyond-the-pale criticism an expression of antisemitism. Surely AOC should be willing to admit that there must be some kinds of criticism of Israel that are so over the top that they can only be explained by reference to antisemitism. When Israelis are accused of “treating Palestinians worse than Hitler treated the Jews,” or when Israeli soldiers are accused of deliberately murdering Palestinian children, we have a right to call such monstrous claims examples of antisemitism. When Israel is described as an “apartheid state” even though Arabs live, work, shop, are treated in hospitals, and study in universities side-by-side with Jews, that description is an example of antisemitism. When Israel-bashers ignore the fact that Arabs sit in the Knesset, serve on the Supreme Court, and serve as ambassadors in Israel’s diplomatic corps, which would spoil their charge of an “apartheid state,” such a deliberate omission reflects antisemitism.
“It doesn’t mean that you are against the existence of a nation,” she continued. “It means that you believe in human rights, and it’s about making sure that Palestinian human rights are equal to Israeli human rights, and there are a lot of troubling things happening there.”
Do the Arab citizens of Israel not have the same rights as Jewish citizens? They can vote, run for office, serve in the government. They have the right to practice their religion freely and openly. They have access to the same hospitals and the same universities. The only difference is that they are not required to serve in the military, though they may volunteer if they wish.
The Arabs with the least rights in “Palestine” are those who are ruled by Hamas in Gaza, and by the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank. In neither case is there real democracy. Hamas keeps itself in power by terrorizing potential opponents in Gaza. Mahmoud Abbas was elected to a four-year term as President of the Palestinian Authority in 2005; he has not held an election since. In both Gaza and the West Bank, the political corruption is massive. Two of Hamas’ top leaders, Mousa Abu Marzouk and Khaled Meshal, have each accumulated fortunes of at least 2.5 billion dollars, stolen from foreign aid meant for the Gazan Arabs. Mahmoud Abbas and two of his sons, meanwhile, are no slouches either, for they have amassed a family fortune of between $400 and $600 million.
She [AOC] then endorsed Palestinian mob violence, stating, “I believe that injustice is a threat to the safety of all people, because once you have a group that is marginalized and marginalized and marginalized — once someone doesn’t have access to clean water, they have no choice but to riot, right?”
AOC seems to think the Palestinian mobs rioting on the Gazan border with Israel are fully justified. “They have no choice.” Is she aware that they are not merely rioting, but throwing Molotov cocktails, grenades, and other explosives, sometimes even shooting, at Israeli soldiers? Does she know that they have been trying for sixteen months to breach the security fence, not to discuss water management, but in order to enter Israel in order to kill or kidnap Israelis, both military and civilian? Does she know about the incendiary kites that the Palestinians in Gaza have let loose to set Israeli farmland on fire? These are more than mere rioters; they are Jihadis, fighting against the Infidel Israelis, and hoping to subdue them.
The Israelis have not “marginalized” the Palestinians; it is the Palestinians who, by their relentless attempts to kill Israelis, have marginalized themselves. They are told, in the Qur’an, not to take Jews and Christians as friends, for “they are friends only with each other.” (5:51) They are told that Infidels are “the most vile of created beings.” (98:6) How exactly should Israelis behave toward people who want no part of them, but instead despise them, and wish to destroy them? These Palestinians have been taught in dozens of Qur’anic verses to despise and hate the Jews, and in 109 Qur’anic verses have also been taught to “fight” and to “kill” and to “smite at the necks of” and to “strike terror in the hearts of” the Infidels, which includes the Jews? AOC says the “Palestinians… have no choice but to riot.” Of course they have a choice. They could choose to make peace with Israel. They could have chosen, when the Israelis withdrew from Gaza, to accept and make use of those greenhouses the Israelis had built, and handed over to the Palestinians intact, hoping that they would carry on, and even expand, the profitable business the Israelis had created. Instead the Arabs, in a spiteful fit, destroyed those greenhouses. The Israelis would still be happy to help the Gazan Arabs prosper, if only they would stop trying to kill Israelis.
Israel has provided employment for Palestinians from both Gaza and the West Bank, but the threat of terrorism has now forced them to severely limit the workers from Gaza. Today, nearly 50,000 Palestinians have legal permits to work in Israel, and another 30,000 are believed, even without permits, to have been provided employment by Jews in Israel, including the West Bank. Some Israeli manufacturers, such as the Sodastream Company, deliberately placed their factories in the West Bank to encourage Arabs to work for them. In the case of Sodastream, because of a BDS boycott of their product (for being made in the West Bank), the company was forced to move its operations to pre-1967 Israel, and as a consequence, some Arab workers lost their jobs. AOC clearly has no idea how often Israel has tried to help economically, in ways not always understood, the Palestinians in both the West Bank and Gaza,
AOC agreed with her interviewer that some Jews are “white supremacists.” She offered no examples of such; not a single comment from a single Jew has been offered as evidence of “white supremacism,” not by AOC, or Ilhan Omar, or Rashida Tlaib. not by Human Rights Watch or the Southern Poverty Law Center. Perhaps what she and others who have been making this charge really mean is this: many Jews are glad that President Trump moved the American embassy to Jerusalem, ended the American contribution to the corrupt and bloated UNRWA, and cut all American aid to the Palestinian Authority. And that must mean, in the peculiar logic of AOC and others, that these Jews endorse everything about Trump, including those of his comments — on Charlottesville (“there were good people on both sides”), on Baltimore (“rat-infested”) and on Congressman Elijah Cummings — that have been endlessly described as “racist.” This makes no sense. Russians attacked Islamic State targets in Syria. If we praise them for that, are we also endorsing everything else Vladimir Putin has done? If we are glad that Saudi Arabia is sharing intelligence with Israel, does that mean we approve of the murder of Jamal Khashoggi?

Well [shrugs shoulders], what can you really say, but that it seems quite obvious these loonies, like Cortez (and her stablemates, like Omar), that you have infesting the benches of your US Congress (not to mention this idiot ex pat of your’s from Ohio, Sen. Kristina Keneally, we presently have ‘gracing’ our Australian Federal Senate – and who, thank God, has just been unsuccessful in her strenuous bid to have Raheem Kassam banned from entering Australia and speaking to great number of us who are interested in hearing what he has to say) all desperately require a few long analysis sessions with somebody the calibre of Sigmund Freud.
elee says
If she REALLY doesn’t know that the Nazis nurtured and launched Islam”ism,” she should shut up and learn.
James Lincoln says
AOC “doesn’t know when she doesn’t know”.
She feels that she doesn’t need to learn anything basic about important United States foreign policy towards Israel because:
She feels that she already knows more than the true factual evidence-based experts – who have studied this issue for years.
Absolutely disgusting. She should go back to bartending…

carolyne says
I, too, am concerned about the recent resurgence of anti-semitism around the world and especially in the US. I detest Islam because I have logical, sensible reasons to. The Jewish religious have never harmed me or other non-Jews as far as I am aware but Islam wants us all dead. I am proud to support Israel against the barbarians and am proud of our President’s doing the same. We must never again allow a holocaust.
carolyne says
That woman could give one a nasty bite with those enormous teeth.
Westman says
Her communist ideas are looking for a bite of your income and if you’re wealthy, only 70%. Of course this actually means the average American will pay that 70% in increased prices for products as business passes it on.
AOC looks remarkably like Frida Kahlo; same communist ideas, but an extrovert instead of introvert. She’s now attacking her former handler, Chakrabarti, in a display of “loyalty” and “appreciation”.

Apparently, if you are “racist”, you are white. Like Zimmerman became a “white hispanic” when Trayvon was beating his head against the concrete and got shot as a result. Next Candace Owens will be a “white negro” or some such. The lunacy of it all.
CRUSADER says
Jamal Khashoggi was Muslim Brotherhood — correct?
tgusa says
Whites are a minority among the peoples of the world and yet we see hordes of non whites flooding in to white countries and not the other way around. It appears that non whites seem to believe that white countries are superior to the non white countries they are fleeing. Explain that to me Ms. Cortez.
Angemon says
The woman is a disgraceful jackass, and shame on the Democrats for propping her up.
Rufolino says
She looks like the crazed Joan Crawford in “Trog” ! Those mad popping eyes, and the scarlet lips like a pair of varnished bananas on a vampire !
Ole Pederson says
Denying that Jewish supremacism exists does not help when arguing about Islamic supremacism.
Fortunately, redical Jewish extremists are a minority outside Mea Shearim (Jerusalem), and Williamsburg (NY) and in history and present, do not have much political say.

Joe says
The extremism of these groups mostly manifests itself in isolating themselves, much like the Amish, although they do lash out at less religious or secular Jews. They have little impact on the non-Jewish world.

Stop the word “White supremacist” already, since I’ve never heard of Asian supremacist despite how arrogance Asian especially Chineses are. If the Leftists want to use this word, I guess we could use the term of Islamic suremacist Asian supremacist or African supremacist too. I’m not even white, but I just admire whie people and their cultures, and dismiss the cultures around me. Does this make me a white supremacist when I’m not even white? Some people call me a racist for not appreciate the beauty of dark skin tone people. which is incorrect, as I think all human are equal intelligence, and I don’t believe in sub race human are human. Being just only into light skin tone people doesn’t mean I’m a racist, but Liberal will still call me that anyway. The only thing I despite is The followers of Muhammad’s death cult called Islam, because this cult is totally savagery.
CRUSADER says
World is just coming to terms with the success of Guns, Germs, Steel and…God!
Westman says
I’m amused at the idea that AOC thinks (white skin) = (superior attitude) when anyone visiting a beach will see all those “white” people trying to get darker. She runs down the nation and “white” citizens while being catapulted into fame, fortune, and discovering garbage disposals. Her handler resigns and she immediately dumps on him. She seems the perfect candidate for conversion to Islam, where hating unbelieving ethnic groups is de rigueur. Omar and Tlaib should be dragging AOC to a mosque.
AOC is a reminder of cotton candy. It looks large and important but there isn’t much of substance when pressure is applied.
It would be so good for the DNC if AOC, Omar, and Tlaib would take over “The View” and change the name to, “Our View of Jews and White Supremists”. (sarc)
Rhonda says
Isn’t the height of stupid to label someone by the amount of a biological substance or lack of it in their skin? I would say so,
Example I am a low degree albino. So am I even more supremist then the average person?
You are quite right melanin isn’t the cause of any supremacy. Your character and beliefs about fellow humans A CHOICE makes you a supremacist or not.
This color thing is only to divide a nation who has already gone down that road.

Madeleine Dunn says
I endorse Pres. Trump’s comment “there were good people on both sides” because he went into specific detail as to who he meant specifically and within less than a minute he denounced the nazis who were there. His remarks about Elijah Cummings and Baltimore were not racist in any way shape of form. Nothing AOC says makes any sense whatsoever. It is just a kind of pop hate feel good bad talking points she does.
Venkat says
Iam a fan of Cortez don’t know she was a Islam sympathiser what I do know is Americans deserve free health care and social benefits most rich countries have it and unfortunately it’s termed as socialism and discarded. Iam from India and I lived for 2 yrs in Louisiana for my masters and I had some seen my colleagues boring big injuries yet wont go to hospital fearing for the bill. I loved them all. Even though we r a poor nation we do have free treatment and the quality off late is even getting better. If Cortez can get u free medical care Pls vote for her she cud stand for presidency nez
Venkat says
One issue I do have with jihad watch is it supports trump believe me he is good for my country and his policies are good for my country but the problem he does sides with Saudi too much even though all these hateful ideas emanates from there which I have a problem with. It’s almost like jihadwatch side steps it’s true principle of exposing Islam and just targeting specific elements which trump doesn’t like
Leslie Fish says
Venkat, you’re overlooking the fact that there are three major Muslim powers in the middle-east: Turkey, Arabia, and Persia (Iran) — and have been for a thousand years. The western countries have survived by playing them off against each other, and we’re doing the same thing now. The trick today is to get Turkey and Arabia to gang up on Iran, which is trying to get nukes to make itself the biggest bully on the block. That’s why Trump isn’t saying anything against Arabia or Turkey at the moment.
Venkat says
I have been messaging here for the past so many months never got any response for anything what’s ever. I started watching jihD watch primarily becos it alerts us about the perills of Islam but now I hav I realised its only white man’s Club evangelizing flirt Fuck trump. Good luck u all I’m outta here

Leaving so soon? Don’t go away mad.

gravenimage says
Jihad Watch reports on Jihad terror all over the world–in Nigeria, China, Iraq, Somalia, Indonesia, Pakistan, Libya, Egypt, Iran, and, yes, India. How does that make it “only white man’s Club”? In fact, one of the frequent contributors to Jihad Watch is Indian–Anjuli Pandavar. Another frequent contributor is Christine Douglass-Williams, who is Black. Other contributors include Copts and ex-Muslims.
Also, I generally read every thread here, and have not seen Venkat posting here before that I can recall. A search brings up just this one thread. So the idea that other posters have been ignoring him for months is suspect.
