Can Kamala Harris win?

[Notch7]

Walz’s ties to Zaman could serve as problematic baggage for the Minnesota governor as he campaigns with Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee. News of the ties also comes after a Washington Free Beacon report this week found Walz spoke at a 2019 event with an antisemitic scholar who has defended terrorism against Israel.

Zaman, who is from Bangladesh, said on Oct. 7 of last year that he “stands in solidarity with Palestinians against Israeli attacks.” That day, which saw 1,200 Israelis murdered by Hamas terrorists, he also shared an image of a Palestinian flag on Facebook in response to a post by Yusuf Abdi Abdulle, director of the Islamic Association of North America, declaring that “Palestine has the right to defend itself.” The Biden-Harris administration, Abdulle wrote in the post, was “on the wrong side of history” in “supporting the extremist Zionist regime and its illegal settlements.”

Zaman, meanwhile, has used his Facebook page over the years to share official Hamas press releases, blog posts on antisemitic websites slamming Jews, and, in one 2015 instance, a link to a piece on a website for a pro-Hitler film called The Greatest Story Never Told. The propaganda movie was released in 2013 and is a favorite among antisemites and QAnon conspiracy influencers, according to the Anti-Defamation League.

“Imam Zaman has a troubling history of playing into classic anti-Jewish themes and justifying violence against Israel,” an Anti-Defamation League spokesperson told the Washington Examiner.

“He also has justified violence against Israel, including from terror groups,” the ADL spokesperson said. “Given his hurtful remarks post-Oct. 7, and absent any recognition of the pain he has caused the Jewish community, we urge all public officials and leaders to avoid meeting with him in the future. Those who have met with Imam Zaman should clarify that they don’t agree with his toxic views about Jews and the Jewish state.”

Washington Free Beacon….another Republican propaganda outlet.

You can post this tripe all you like……it won’t change Trumps ever growing meltdown

Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz, on at least five occasions as governor of Minnesota, hosted a Muslim cleric who celebrated Hamas‘s Oct. 7 attack last year on Israel and promoted a film popular among Neo-Nazis that glorifies Adolf Hitler, the Washington Examiner found.

The story seems to have been going for a few days without gaining any traction. I've no idea how serious it is. What's happened to gas112, I used to rely on him for anti-Democrat/pro-Trump stories to look into!

The battalion commander who oversaw Tim Walz's former unit has criticized the vice presidential nominee for allegations of "stolen valor".

Kamala Harris' running mate has already had to retract claims of having "carried" weapons of war in combat during his 24-year tenure in the Army National Guard and has faced accusations of being a "coward" from relatives of soldiers.

Harris has also been forced to address claims that Walz misrepresented his rank upon retiring from the National Guard.

Lieutenant Colonel John Kolb, who took over Walz's unit after the governor resigned in 2005, has lambasted the Democrat for claiming the rank of Command Sergeant Major and for retiring prior to deployment to Iraq.

In a Facebook post, Kolb stated that Walz "did not earn the rank" and added that "it is an affront to the Non-commissioned Officer Corps that he continues to glom onto the title."

It's interesting to reflect that the strong pro-Israel lobby in USA, leading their governments to overlook Israel's racism, apartheid and genocide, is being challenged more these days.

It will be awkward if they have to face up to the facts of racism, apartheid and genicide, not to mention military colonisation. These do not play well in the land of the free. It's been easier to sweep them under the carpet in the past.

Thanks to filly for keeping these awkward truths in the public eye.

This doesn't really seem to be going anywhere either. They've been banging this drum for almost a week now.

( "according to to the Times of Israel." Says Filly's link.)

It's always good to see Israeli propaganda planted by Mossad with an accurate byline.

Filly should do it more often.

But it's not really turned into a big story. Yet anyway, and they've really been trying for almost a week now. He basically had a slip of the tongue. He's never claimed to have been in combat. In fact there are plenty of instances of him saying specifically that he was never in combat. And anyway, he did serve in the army and was posted overseas in Europe during the Afghan war and he did carry weapons. So he did actually carry weapons during a war. If he had said he had carried them in combat that would be different. This story really doesn't seem to be going anywhere. Most people see a 24 year veteran who had already retired once but rejoined after 9/11, who had severe hearing damage from the artillery and was offered a medical discharge but refused. It sounds a bit desperate.

Draft dodger Trump avoided military service.

1 excuse he gave was an ingrowing toenail

Donald Trump avoided the military draft 5 times, but it wasn't uncommon for young men from influential families​

Trump is having an interview with Elon Musk late tonight on twitter. His advisers desperately want him to dial down the crazy. Is a love in with Musk really the best way to do this?

It might be really good, or, very very very bad.

Elmo is just using Trump to bolster his fading relevance and to grab some expensive ad revenue.
