Biden team disavows anti-Israel activist Linda Sarsour after she
speaks at DNC delegate meeting
--- Quote ---

says
--- End Quote ---
--- Quote ---
> The Biden camp moved to distance itself from
Palestinian-American activist Linda Sarsour after she spoke at a
Tuesday meeting of Democratic National Convention delegates,
saying she had “no role in the campaign whatsoever.”
>
> Ms. Sarsour spoke at a meeting advertised on the DNC website
as “Muslim Delegates Assembly/Caucus and Council Meeting,” but a
Democrat official said the gathering was not run by the DNC or
Biden campaign.
>
> A former co-leader of the Women’s March, Ms. Sarsour is known
for her advocacy of the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment and
Sanctions movement, as well as her support for convicted
Palestinian terrorist Rasmea Odeh and appearance at a 2015 rally
organized by Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
>
> Biden spokesman Andrew Bates emphasized that the former vice
president opposes the BDS movement, which urges consumers and
companies to stop doing business with Israel.
>
> “Joe Biden has been a strong supporter of Israel and a
vehement opponent of anti-Semitism his entire life, and he
obviously condemns her views and opposes BDS, as does the
Democratic platform,” said Mr. Bates in an email. “She has no
role in the Biden campaign whatsoever.”
> Ms. Sarsour swung back by tweeting, “just came here to remind
you that you need a coalition to defeat Donald Trump and that
Muslim Americans are an important voter bloc in key states like
Michigan, Wisconsin, Virginia, Texas, Pennsylvania & I know a
little something about how to organize them.”

"You Dont Have To Be Jewish To Be A Zionist"

Thing's are just looking so promising. I realize a good strategy
for this election is to wait until after a Biden and Harris win
before we begin criticizing them considering Trump is the worst
of two evils and that Demographic-Blueshift is so much more
important than just the election alone, but I gotta say
personally I am glad I cannot vote in the election. On the
subject of Israel Biden may as well be a Republican rightist.

'Today Feels Like a Betrayal': Sunrise Movement Blasts Biden
Pick of Big Oil-Backed Cedric Richmond for Key Post
--- Quote ---
> "President-elect Biden assured our movement he understands the
urgency of this crisis; now, it's time for him to act like it."
--- End Quote ---
--- Quote ---
> Climate campaigners who rallied behind President-elect Joe
Biden because President Donald Trump spent his first term
serving corporate polluters were outraged Tuesday by reporting
that Democratic Louisiana Congressman Cedric Richmond—who has
raked in vast campaign contributions from the fossil fuel
industry—is joining the incoming administration.
--- End Quote ---
--- Quote ---
> "President-elect Biden ran on a promise to act decisively to
combat the climate crisis, signed a pledge not to let his
campaign be unduly influenced by fossil fuel corporations or
their money, and said leaders of fossil fuel companies would not
be involved in his transition," Prakash said. "Young people
helped deliver him a landslide victory powered by historic youth
turnout all across the country, with the hopes that those
promises would extend to keeping fossil fuel corruption out of
his administration."

This is actually not a problem in principle. The arms industry
merely wants its products to be purchased. It does not care whom
its products are used against after they have been purchased. We
who want military invasion of countries such as Israel, Myanmar,
Hungary, etc. would do well to gain the support of the arms
industry through entryism etc.. The arms industry must be made
to realize ASAP that it could potentially thrive better by
supporting hawkish True Leftist governments (whose enemies are
Western countries) than by supporting equivalently hawkish
rightist governments (whose enemies are non-Western countries).
For example, think about how much more weaponry we would need to
purchase in order to successfully invade Israel (which has an
Iron Dome FFS):

compared to invading Afghanistan!
Do I think Biden will invade Israel? Of course not. But the
point is that leftists must learn to stop thinking of the arms
industry as something to be avoided (and hence abandoned to
rightists). Military weapons are just larger-scale firearms:

For the record, I wish modern weapons had never been invented.
But given the unfortunate reality that they have already been
invented, it is poetic justice to use modern weapons on those
who want to preserve the civilization which invented them.

"But the point is that leftists must learn to stop thinking of

These same "leftists" will claim that the arms industry, not
Israel, runs U.S. foreign policy.
