Women’s March Leader Slams U.S. Government For Providing Aid To Israel

Women’s March leader Tamika Mallory on Friday slammed the United States government for providing aid to Israel.

While speaking at an event hosted by the progressive Center for Constitutional Rights, Mallory claimed that Israel’s founding in 1948 amounted to a “human rights crime.”

“My soul would not rest, standing by and doing nothing about it, to know that the U.S. government – my taxpayer’s money, $10 million a day – is going to a government, a military, that takes the lives of people who were there first,” Mallory said at the event, where she appeared via video. Her comments were first reported by Jewish website Forward.

“There are a lot of people who will say, ‘Do you believe that Israel has the right to exist? I believe we all have a right to exist. I want to see all of us live in a free society where we are all able to raise our families and to be fruitful and have opportunities,” Mallory said. “This is not about stopping one side. This is about ensuring that the native people are able to enjoy the land. They shouldn’t ask anybody for their land! This is their land!”

It is simply political suicide to speak out against Zionism.
Zionism is the most dangerous force in the world and has the financial backing of the richest families to ever live.

Israel is an apartheid government and society.
The single most racist and hate-filled government to ever exist.

Apparently some people need to learn how to fact check. Governments kick people off their land all the time from failure to pay taxes to eminent domain. Plus conquered people have to take the hand they're dealt. And the West bank and Gaza were won in the six day war.
