Code Pink leader and anti-Israel activist Ariel Elyse Gold was on i24News yesterday defending Ilhan Omar’s antisemitism.
But why does anyone take this idiot hypocrite seriously enough to even put her on the news?
Yesterday she proudly disrupted a press conference by former Muslim women who are now pro-Israel. Obviously those women must be silenced. Only some women have the right to free speech, according to this idiot.
She published an article yesterday entitled “Enjoy Your High, But Not at the Expense of Palestinian Human Rights” which is breathtaking in how little it makes sense. She claims that Israel’s booming medical cannabis industry is a cover to whitewash Israeli crimes because …some of the people involved were probably in the IDF. Like nearly very Jew in Israel.
Here’s a section:
The company Together Pharma lists Guy Atia, an “expert in the security field,” as co-director and controlling shareholder, and retired Brigadier General Meir Ben Yishai as being in charge of “defense and security.” While it isn’t clear exactly what roles these two men play in the company, usually in Israel, the terms “defense” and “security” have some link to Israel’s military occupation and settlement economy.
Something bad is going on – she just knows it!
Is there any indication that buying Israeli medical marijuana products helps Israel’s “occupation?” Not the slightest. And Gold doesn’t bring any. She just reports “links” between people and their IDF activities because that is prima facie evidence that every Israeli industry is evil.
But links only go one way. Here she is at Representative Rashida Tlaib’s office supporting Ilhan Omar:
Behind her we can see members of Neturei Karta, the fringe anti-Israel Jewish group.
Who are also anti-gay.
Gold is in solidarity with the most anti-liberal group one can imagine. She has links with an anti-gay organization – and by her logic in the cannabis article, that makes her anti-gay!
If she was “progressive” she would never agree to be linked to NK. But since NK is anti-Israel, then she is proud to be associated with them, no matter their own politics. (Miko Peled was also there.)
To Gold, wanting the destruction of the Jewish state is more important than any other so-called “progressive” principle. That is the basis of her intersectionality.
Which proves that she is not progressive at all – just a publicity hungry airhead.
We have lots of ideas, but we need more resources to be even more effective. Please donate today to help get the message out and to help defend Israel.
