I wonder if it will include all the hate towards Christianity, as well as the constant assaults by Democrat voters on Republicans?
Report: Democrats to Condemn ‘All Hate,’ Not Anti-Semitism Specifically, in Resolution
According to a report, House Democrats will not condemn anti-Semitism specifically following the controversy over Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), but will instead condemn “all hate†in general.
Last month, Ilhan Omar created fresh controversy by making an anti-Semitic comment implying that pro-Israel Americans had an “allegiance to a foreign country.â€
Omar suggested earlier in February that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) was bribing politicians into supporting Israel and as a result was widely criticized as anti-Semitic.
However, Democrats reportedly do not see the need to pass a resolution condemning anti-Semitism specifically.
The Daily Beast reports:
House Democrats spent Wednesday scrambling to put to bed a debate about anti-Semitism that no one wants after advancing a symbolic resolution condemning it that pleased no one.
The resolution, as it was initially conceived in the hours after Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) made a second round of anti-Israel comments last week, would condemn anti-Semitism—a second public rebuke of the freshman lawmaker who has been in office less than 60 days.
But by midweek, faced with a backlash inside the Democratic Caucus, leaders appeared to change course, asking the House Foreign Affairs Committee to draft a resolution that rebuked “all hate.â€
Unsurprisingly, a whole host of Democrats are attempting to now defenddefend Jew/Israel hater Omar from criticism, from Bernie Sanders to Liz Warren to Dem activists and opinion writers.
Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) wrote in a statement obtained by HuffPost that continued attention directed at Omar, one of the first two Muslim women to serve in Congress, puts her at risk of possible violence.
“We all have a responsibility to speak out against anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, homophobia, transphobia, racism, and all forms of hatred and bigotry,†Harris said in a statement.
But, they aren’t speaking out against anti-Semitism specifically from one of their members. It’s been specifically rampant among young Democrats, especially on college campuses, and, be honest, it is rampant throughout Muslim communities such as Omar’s. The hatred of Israel in the Democratic Party has morphed into hatred of Jews.
