As has often been noted, today’s Democratic Party has cornered the market in anti-Semitism. From Louis Farrakhan to Al Sharpton to Jeremiah Wright to the Squad, today’s Democrats have opened their arms and their hearts to anti-Semitism.
And today’s Democrats have also espoused the virtue of weakness in foreign affairs. They are all rough and tough when it comes to fighting Republicans, especially President Trump, but when it comes to fighting American enemies or supporting America’s allies they run for cover.
So, the perfect meshing of anti-Semitism and weakness was on display in New Hampshire this week. Elizabeth Warren, scrawny twig of a woman, loudmouthed ranter who is not going to be the Democratic Party nominee for president, was asked whether she would attend the annual conference of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.
An audience member stood up and declared AIPAC to be infested with bigots. The worst part, it’s full up with Islamophobes. He declared himself to be Jewish so apparently he had the right to trash Jews. He did not quite understand that he was trying out for membership on the local Jewish Council, but we will let that pass for the moment.
After slandering the pro-Israeli lobbying group, the aspiring Jewish Council member asked Lizzie whether or not she would boycott the AIPAC conference. She firmly and cravenly responded: Yes, she would.
The Federalist has the story:
During a campaign event in New Hampshire, Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts vowed to skip the annual AIPAC policy conference. Warren said she considers herself an ally of Israel, but not an ally of AIPAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.
An audience member slandered the organization as an “unholy alliance” of Islamaphobes, anti-Semites, and white nationalists.
“I’m an American Jew and I’m terrified by the unholy alliance that AIPAC is forming with Islamaphobes and anti-Semites and white nationalists. And no Democrat should legitimize that kind of bigotry by attending their annual policy conference. I’m really grateful you skipped the AIPAC conference last year, so my question is if you’ll join me in committing to skip the AIPAC conference this march?” the audience member asked.
Warren immediately responded yes.
Warren claims to be an American ally of Israel, specifically stating, “Israel has the right to defend itself.” However, her actions speak louder than her words. She refuses to applaud the work of President Trump on a two-state peace proposal, refuses to attend a policy conference with one of the most influential Israeli policy groups in America, and has yet to condemn the open antisemites in her party such as Reps. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Ilhan Omar of Minnesota.
Even Bernie Sanders, the favored candidate of the Squad, a man who hired notable anti-Semite Linda Sarsour to work on his campaign, was not quite so definitive:
On the other hand, Sen. Bernie Sanders said he was open to attending the 2020 AIPAC policy conference. According to the Jewish News Syndicate, Sanders told a Jewish student in Derry, New Hampshire he didn’t think it was on his agenda, but would consider going.
“I don’t think I am [going]. I don’t think it’s going to be on my schedule, but you know, I have no objection to going,” Sanders said during a town hall.

That boy's crazy.

Bernie, The EQUIVOCATOR! Why, he can speak out of both sides of his mouth at the same time!
Elizabeth Warren Judaism?
