The ANSWER Coalition of America’s Enemies

The left-wing "activist" group ANSWER picks sides in conflicts around the world, protesting the actions of the western side, and justifying the actions of all the others.

The large protest against Israel and in support of the Hamas terrorists on November 4 in Washington, D.C. was primarily organized by the ANSWER Coalition (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism). It has called for a wave of disruption across the country on November 9 to “Shut It Down for Palestine.”

This group was founded just three days after the September 11, 2001 Al-Qaeda terrorist attack on New York City and the Pentagon that killed some 3,000 people. ANSWER’s declared aim was to create “a massive antiwar movement” that would block U.S. retaliation against the attacks. So now ANSWER wants to block Israeli retaliation against the October 7, 2023 terrorist attacks which killed over 1,400 people. They are not “antiwar” and certainly have no interest in “peace.” ANSWER picks sides in conflicts around the world, protesting the actions of one side, and justifying the actions of the other. They want victory for their chosen side which is invariably the side acting against the United States, its friends, and its allies. That is the core nature of the Left.

ANSWER chose against Israel long ago, holding a rally in April 2002 in Washington calling for the “liberation” of Palestine, which means wiping Israel off the map. The chants heard today of “from the river to the sea” do not express any new objective. The only plan for genocide, the style of which was demonstrated in the torture and murder of babies on 10/7, has come from the Palestinian terrorists, their backers in Iran (who have threatened to use nuclear weapons to obliterate Israel), and their left-wing supporters on college campuses...

The tactic that ANSWER uses is called “Critical Theory” which is a marxist movement and strategy originally associated with the work of the Frankfurt School. Critical Race Theory is one of the arms of this monster.

I recall them being very active around the time of the Iraq War - early 2000s. IIRC, they have a connection somehow to North Korea?

Remember how every FReeper laughed and laughed at obama because he was a “community organizer”?

Lol! Still laughing??
