BREAKING: Liberal Congress To Host Forum AGAINST American Ally, Israel…

This is just repugnant to me.[1] Congress is about to hold an anti-Semitic event… its first-ever forum in favor of boycotting our strongest ally… Israel. They won’t disclose the lawmaker sponsoring the event, but they should. He or she is a coward for not being open about it. Let’s see who the Israel-hater really is. We have a right to know and it will come out. Wonder if it is the same Dem who referred to Israeli settlers as ‘termites’. It wouldn’t surprise me in the least.

The pro-BDS hearing is being held as Congress considers several pieces of legislation aimed at defunding the BDS movement and isolating its supporters in the United States. I pray that they succeed, but the rise of Jewish hatred within the US troubles me a great deal. We seem to be heading into very dark times as a nation.

Israel is the only other country to have a 9/11 monument. They have stood by us no matter what. Under the current leadership, I wish the same could be said about the US. But it can’t. Obama and Hillary are enemies to the Jewish state.

From The Washington Free Beacon[3]:

Congress is scheduled to host what insiders described as the first-ever forum in favor of boycotting Israel, according to congressional sources and an invitation for the event being circulated by an anti-Israel organization.

The briefing is scheduled to take place Friday on Capitol Hill and will feature several speakers known for their criticism of Israel and support for the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement, or BDS, which has been cited by Jewish organizations as an anti-Semitic movement.

The event is being sponsored by the U.S. Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation, a pro-BDS organization that recently came under fire[4] when it hosted a Democratic member of Congress who referred to Israeli settlers as “termites.”

Senior congressional sources with knowledge of the event told the Washington Free Beacon that the Capitol Hill office in charge of reserving the event room would not disclose the name of the lawmaker sponsoring the event.

The event is being billed by BDS supporters as the “First Pro-BDS Capitol Hill Briefing” in history, according to an invitation to the event[5] obtained by the Free Beacon.

“This briefing will offer Capitol Hill its first opportunity to hear directly from Americans who support BDS and organize BDS campaigns,” the invitation states.

The pro-BDS hearing is being held as Congress considers several pieces of legislation aimed at defunding the BDS movement and isolating its supporters in the United States.

One senior congressional aide familiar with the forum and its supporters told the Free Beacon that the member or members of Congress who sponsored the event should publicly admit it. “The member of Congress who sponsored this offensive event should step forward and claim credit,” the source said. “Who is responsible for using taxpayer dollars to fund such virulently anti-Semitic propaganda? Maybe they should host a briefing on how Hamas spends $40 million annually on building tunnels to carry out terrorist attacks on innocent Israelis.” Right there with him on that… have the balls to come out and admit your hatred of Israel, so we know who you are.

The Anti-Defamation League, which fights against anti-Semitism, has described the event sponsor, the U.S. Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation, as “a coalition of anti-Israel groups that promotes divestment from Israeli companies, organizes anti-Israel events, and lobbies the U.S.” George Soros anyone?
