Zahra Billoo's definition of "Islamophobia" seems based on the idea that being Muslim entitles you to vile antisemitic outbursts &support for terrorism
Good on the Women's March that they got rid of her
(h/t @CrazyNormie)
@CrazyNormie Since Billoo says she stands by her words (), here's a reminder (long thread) of the words she stands by:
@CrazyNormie Billoo's ousting from the Women's March Board is surely bad news for Linda Sarsour, who adores her 👇
@CrazyNormie And a bit more on Sarsour's enthusiasm for Billoo
@CrazyNormie As was to be expected, Sarsour's fuming about Billoo's ousting from the Women's March board...
@CrazyNormie We should all remember that Linda Sarsour has relentlessly promoted the bigoted Zahra Billoo as a role model when her book is published early March 2020 by @simonschuster

@CrazyNormie @simonschuster Let everyone know that Zahra Billoo's bigotry &hate get unreserved support from CAIR
@CrazyNormie @simonschuster Naturally, the vile JVP crowd is also eager to declare their support for Billoo
(via @Abc11Ab)
@CrazyNormie @simonschuster @Abc11Ab Once again, when faced with solid evidence of her own &her friends' support for bigotry &terrorism, Linda Sarsour makes do with shouting about "Islamophobic smear campaigns" and "targeted campaigns to silence Muslim leaders who advocate for Palestinians and BDS"
So here's a reminder of the evidence:
1) for Sarsour herself, her hatred for Israel &antisemitism, support for convicted terrorist Rasmea Odeh, incitement at Farrakhan event see e.g.: brandeiscenter.com/linda-sarsours… & algemeiner.com/2017/05/24/how…
2) for the hate-filled views of Sarsour's dear friend Omar Suleiman, see algemeiner.com/2017/07/31/bes… & algemeiner.com/2017/08/16/the…
3) For the vile propaganda of American Muslims for Palestine, a group both Sarsour &Suleiman have long associated with, see e.g.: warped-mirror.com/2019/05/20/oma…
Of course it's much more convenient to just complain about 'Islamophobia' and 'smear campaigns' than to actually deal with all the evidence -- particularly if you're actually not prepared to repudiate any of the views you've expressed
