Zead Ramadan, head of the New York branch of Hamas-affiliated CAIR, to run against Jew for seat on New York City Council.

...

Ramadan is a Palestinian Authority Arab who was born in Kuwait and immigrated to Washington Heights with his family, including seven siblings, as a kid and quickly assimilated, the report said.

He is, among other things, the president of the board of directors of the New York Chapter of the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), which has a long history of anti-Israel rhetoric, accusing the Jewish state of perpetrating genocide and of being a terrorist state.

1) He didn’t “assimilate” at all if he is part of that islamic terrorist group

2) We have a Anti-American muslim as POTUS — this should be easy pickin’s for our enemies

If Ramadan was born in Kuwait, he is NOT a Palestinian Authority Arab. He is a Kuwaiti of Arab/Israeli heritage (many Israelis are Arabs. There was no Palestine to be from. Never, in modern history and only as a Roman province 2000 years ago or a League of Nations mandated territory known as British Palestine, which included a lot more land than just Israel and the West Bank, parts of Syria, Jordan, etc.).

His parents might claim to be from what is now called the Palestinian Arab Authority but since they lived in Kuwait and at least Ramadan (if not his parents) are US citizens, they are not under any kind of Palestinian Authority authority or citizenship.

Have to watch how words are mistakenly used, even by the good guys.

CAIR is an islamist enemy organization.

It’s going to be us or them eventually.

Thanks george76. Plans to run against a Jew. I’m sure that the same Partisan Media Shills who go around the country grilling people about how old they think the Earth is will be grilling this Kuwaiti jihadist wannabee about his views on 9/11.
