Sorry who is this - I’ve missed the memo. Though I don’t think he’s mine. |
You Ds need to watch it though - I used to be true blue and I’m worried about anti-semitism in the D party that’s it’s becoming a real issue for me. |
| Not to worry... the leftist antisemites aren’t dangerous (or so I’ve heard). |
Ibraheem Samirah. He won in February in a Special Election to replace Jennifer Boysko in House District 86. Boysko replaced Jennifer Wexton in the State Senate special election. One more--Samirah also said that Israel is worse than the KKK. |
| I think there is a difference between criticism of the Israeli gov’t and being an anti-Semite. Not sure how I feel about the BDS movement, but there are certainly reasons for the world to pressure them re:human rights violations. |
This is still the best article I’ve read on the topic IMO: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/honest-voice-israel/amp |
| Also, while the people of Egypt did not make a great choice post dictator, they have a right to pick their own leaders. |
| I don’t care about Samireh’s views on Israel. I worry about the slew of folks seeking Democratic endorsements who want to raise taxes through the roof and pursue a radically socialist agenda - McElveen and Plerhoples, for example. And some of the School Board candidates are just awful, too. |
Well, Samirah wants to raise the minimum wage. He wants to pass a Green New Deal. He wants to pour more money into public transportation. Why? because it will get rid of Islamaphobia........... |
| Really hope McKay is elected Chair of the Board of Supervisors. He’s a reasonable person and having a Chair from the southern part of the county would be good for the Springfield and Route 1 areas. |
Agree. |
Agreed. And he has actually served on the Board before. |
Is he Anti-Semite or Anti-Zionist? |
In some instances it can be splitting hairs but I don’t think saying Israel is worse than the KKK is one of those. I’m almost sorry I stomped for Wexton if this is where it ended up. I think the Ds really need to step up against antisemitism. |
| I’m here and I’m a republican. |
