I can't get over how grossly hypocritical this is. He's concerned @AIPAC provides a platform for bigotry, but will literally share a stage at @ISNAHQ con w some of the worst Islamist bigots in the US, almost all of whom publicly state that the Jewish state should be eliminated.
@AIPAC @ISNAHQ Let's review @ISNAHQ's bigotry, @People4Bernie @SenSanders, shall we?

At 2018 ISNA con, your buddy @lsarsour gave a speech in which she warned the audience not to "humanize" Israelis. Who are, in fact (in case you didn't know) actual humans.

investigativeproject.org/7598/isna-conv…
@AIPAC @ISNAHQ @People4Bernie @SenSanders @lsarsour The 2014 #ISNA con featured three Turkish regime-linked speakers, including Erdogan's senior advisor, Ibrahim Kalin.
FYI: Erdogan/ his regime routinely imprison journos, deny Turkish crimes against Armenians, & spread blood-libel-esque anti-Jewish conspiracy theories. Image
@AIPAC @ISNAHQ @People4Bernie @SenSanders @lsarsour At the 2017 #ISNA con, @mpvusa & @HRC were *kicked out* specifically bc of their LGBTQ- & women- focused advocacy. ISNA officials forced them to leave the con on the grounds that they "don't fit in" at the "religious, private, and family-oriented event."

mpvusa.org/new-page-35 Image
@AIPAC @ISNAHQ @People4Bernie @SenSanders @lsarsour @mpvusa @HRC #ISNA's 2018 'West Coast Ed Forum' honored overtly anti-Semitic Yahia Abdul-Rahman, who posts “The Ugly Truth” content (a website that describes itself as “intelligent ‘anti-Semitism’ for thinking Gentiles”) & Muslim Brotherhood conspiracies saying Egyptian prez Sisi is Jewish. ImageImageImageImage
@AIPAC @ISNAHQ @People4Bernie @SenSanders @lsarsour @mpvusa @HRC The 2017 #ISNAcon hosted @muzammilsiddiqi, its former president, who, in an interview published on the ISNA site, called being gay a "moral corruption," & explicitly stated that he supports laws in countries that execute #LGBTQ.

Are these examples not "bigotry", @BernieSanders? ImageImage
@AIPAC @ISNAHQ @People4Bernie @SenSanders @lsarsour @mpvusa @HRC @muzammilsiddiqi @BernieSanders Let's also remember that one of ISNA's high-level officials, Pervez Nasim, approvingly posted the Holocaust denier Ken OKeefe's rants claiming that Israel created ISIS to help it take over the Middle East.

Researching @ADL @JGreenblattADL. Found some troubling trends: less focus on Jews/ fighting Judeophobia & more focus on general "anti-bias". Even whitewashing some who've *contributed* to anti-Israel coffers. Why? Do we really need yet another generic social justice org?
Ofc we Jews should do what's right & oppose *all* "ism"s, but we also need to 'put on our own oxygen masks before helping others'. Is @ADL more focused on gaining social justice street cred than confronting *all* anti-Semitism? CC: @LegInsurrection @DrCharlesJacobs

Examples:
Fawning @ADL lesson re @Malala ignores that she gave $50k to "rebuild a UN school" in Gaza (she essentially gave $ to Hamas) destroyed bc Hamas used it as weapon storage!
Plenty of brave women ADL could teach instead who *haven't* (inadvertently or no) helped enable Jew-killers.

So @AOC won't meet w mainstream Jewish community, incl @ZionessMovement, but will meet w/ anti-Jewish conspiracy theorists from @AMPalestine & Neturei Karta (you know, just those "rabbis" who attend Iran's Holocaust denial conference). WTF. jewishinsider.com/2020/10/new-yo…
This is grotesque. Here she is meeting w/ NK in 2019.
Image
The pic @HenMazzig tweeted features @AOC w NK's Yisroel Dovid Weiss (on the right), who spoke at Iran's Holocaust denial con, met repeatedly w homophobe & anti-Semite Ahmadinejad, & was a guest of Hezbollah murderers in Beirut in 2018.

AOC will meet w him, but not @JCRCNY. ImageImageImage

Researching @Dreamdefenders trips to "Palestine". @NGOmonitor @JerusalemCenter & others correctly noted how 2016 #DDPalestine trips met PFLP terrorists.

But the 1st trip, in 2015 (w @OsopePatrisse @msladyjustice1 @marclamonthill) did too:

Ali Jiddah, 1968 PFLP bomber. 1/ ImageImageImageImage
Following the 2015 trip, #BLM co-founder @OsopePatrisse took this pic in Northern Ireland & posted on her website, in which she wears a Yasser Arafat keffiyeh. Pic was there as recently as May 2020. It's now gone, as is any mention of #DDPalestine. 2/ ImageImageImageImage
When ppl wonder how @Blklivesmatter platforms & protesters (supposedly for "justice") show overt Jew-hate, bigotry, or violence towards Jews, it's partially this^

Co-founders & prominent activists of BLM approve of Pal terrorism/ blame Jews & Israel for U.S. racism. 3/ ImageImageImageImage

.@Rav_Mike @jdforward criticizes @simonwiesenthal for condemning "Black leaders/clergy" silence on "Black anti-semitism"; claims we don't similarly ask for White leaders/clergy to condemn "White anti-Semitism." But imho, this misses some crucial points. 1/
forward.com/opinion/450951…
1. Blacks & Jews = both minorities in the USA, both face discrimination (often from the same ppl). So, it can be doubly hurtful to either community if one feels the other has turned on it.

2. The "connection" is that they repeated same Farrakhanist tropes, distinctive to...2/ Image
...Black Separatist movements, whereas "White anti-Semitism" is often rooted in more 'universal'/'broad' anti-Jewish tropes (horns, Holocaust denial, $$$) in which almost all anti-Semites indulge.

3. Many Jews played a big part in the fight for Black civil rights... 3/

Under guise of "#humanrights", protesters scream "Allahu akbar" & "the Jews are our dogs" at anti-Israel rally. Apparently, "no one is free when others are oppressed" applies to all but Jews--"dogs" to be subjugated. But y'all #notantisemitic tho, right? 🙄 ImageImage
Here's the video, in case you can't see it in my previous tweet (possible if on desktop):

A pic at the rally. Protesters screamed "Jews are our dogs" while appropriating #BlackLivesMatter & #ICantBreath slogan to justify overt anti-Semitism. Will @OsopePatrisse @opalayo @aliciagarza condemn the use of #BLM mvmt to legitimize literal declarations of Jews' inferiority? Image

Thread: In today's episode of Academics Say the Darndest Things, (former?) @UTAustin prof @spwells says that he "despise[s]" the "Apartheid oppressor" Israelis, who thus all "deserve to die."

What a paragon of moral fortitude & human rights advocacy!

H/t UTA law's @JordanCope12 ImageImage
Meanwhile @UTAustin's response to this grotesque display of hate = almost non-existent; its @Twitter statement is a dismissive, weak-kneed, boilerplate claim that @spwells' contract ended at the end of spring semester.

Yet Wells' @LinkedIn lists his 5-yr job there as 'present'. ImageImage
I looked all over @UTAustin's website & other social media. Not a single statement addressing @spwells' literal call for a second genocide of Jews.

I also looked thru his @Twitter account. He seems to have deleted those tweets & removed his UTA position from his Twitter bio. ImageImage
