Neocon-backed pro-war lobby group the Syrian American Council @SA_Council, which hosted a man who called for genocide of Alawites, pressured the independent DC bookstore @PoliticsProse to “postpone” an event with anti-intervention journalist @MaxBlumenthal thegrayzone.com/2019/04/04/syr…
In addition to censoring journalists and giving a platform to genocidal fanatics who call for the mass murder of Alawites in Syria, pro-war lobby @SA_Council also worked closely with neocons like John McCain, while echoing pro-Israel and pro-Saudi rhetoric

Pro-war lobby @SA_Council called for NATO to "wrestle the Russian bear" and advanced the dehumanizing conspiracy that “Russia was ‘weaponizing refugees’ by utilizing refugees flows to destabilize Europe”—blaming the victims of imperialism for the far-right
