Who Is Hady Amr?

While everyone is up in arms about the moronic statements of Marjorie Taylor Greene, the Biden State Department just hired another anti-Semite-- to be in charge of the Israel-Palestine policy.

As noted before, if the Republican Party fails to disassociate itself from Greene it will wear the taint. True enough, it ought to oblige the Democratic Party to rein in its own anti-Semites, from Ilhan Omar to Rashida Tlaib, but still, Republicans should clean their own house first. In that way they would be setting a glorious example by dealing with the crazies in its midst.


In the meantime, Secretary of State Antony Blinken has just handed Israel-Palestine policy to a Palestinian activist who wants to destroy Israel. A long time advocate for Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood, long on the payroll of the pro-Iranian, pro-Hamas regime in Qatar, Hady Amr will surely do his best to undermine the Abraham Accords and to empower Hamas-- all to the detriment of Israel.


Those liberal American Jews who imagined that Joe Biden would be a friend of Israel should hang their heads in abject shame.


Daniel Greenfield makes the case against Hady Amr:


“I was inspired by the Palestinian intifada,” Hady Amr wrote a year after September 11, discussing his work as the national coordinator of the anti-Israel Middle East Justice Network.


Biden has now chosen Amr as a Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Israel-Palestine.


"I have news for every Israeli," Amr ranted in one column written after Sheikh Salah Shahada, the head of Hamas' Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, was taken out by an Israeli air strike.


Amr warned that Arabs "now have televisions, and they will never, never forget what the Israeli people, the Israeli military and Israeli democracy have done to Palestinian children. And there will be thousands who will seek to avenge these brutal murders of innocents."


He also threatened Americans that "we too shouldn't be shocked when our military assistance to Israel and our security council vetoes that keep on protecting Israel come back to haunt us"


The future State Department official was making these threats less than a year after 9/11.


But, that’s not all folks. Besides, Amr joins one Maher Bitar, another anti-Semitic anti-Israel activist Maher Bitar, who is now the director for intelligence on the National Security Council. If you think that these people are fair-minded you should go back on your meds:


Hady Amr had accused Israel of “ethnic cleansing” and coordinated an organization that had accused Israel of “apartheid” making his appointment, like that of Maher Bitar, an anti-Israel activist appointed as the Senior Director for Intelligence on the NSC, a statement about the Biden administration’s hostile relationship to the Jewish State.


As for Amr, he had been with the Brookings Foundation, working at and running a center that was funded by the government of Qatar. As you might know, Qatar is a state sponsor of terrorism:


Qatar not only provided $14.8 million in funding for the Brookings Doha Center, but its advisory board was co-chaired by Qatar's foreign prime minister and a member of its royal dynasty while its director had formerly worked for the second of the Qatari Emir's three wives (and the only wife who also wasn't a cousin) making it obvious that the organization was under Qatari control.


“The center will assume its role in reflecting the bright image of Qatar," the Qatari Foreign Ministry had boasted.


Qatar is a major state sponsor of the Islamic terrorist group Hamas. It has been accused by US government officials of being utilized by Al Qaeda and the Taliban for fundraising purposes. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the mastermind of September 11, operated out of Qatar. He fled after being warned by a member of the Qatari royal family that the Americans were on to him.


Greenfield concludes:


The troubling connections between Qatar, an Islamic terrorist state that is allied with Iran, is a major sponsor of the Muslim Brotherhood and its terrorist arm, Hamas, and the influential Brookings Institute think-tank makes Amr’s appointment all the more problematic.

"[B]ut still, Republicans should clean their own house first. In that way they would be setting a glorious example by dealing with the crazies in its midst.

Why? I'm sick of GOP groveling over this sort of thing. The Dems have MUCH more to apologize for, and it's time we made them start doing it.

"Those liberal American Jews who imagined that Joe Biden would be a friend of Israel should hang their heads in abject shame."

Once again, if Hitler were non-white . . .

With the Republican cleaning their house and Democrats building their House, America will have one “pure” party and one ruling party.
