Courting Muslim vote, NYC mayoral hopeful Andrew Yang walks back criticism of BDS movement
CAIR-linked Islamic supremacist Dean Obeidallah is enraged that Yang “would equate BDS with pre-Nazi Germany fascism,” and being well aware of how victimhood is currency these days, whines that Yang’s position “caused a lot of pain in our community.” What doesn’t, Dino?
