Linda Sarsour’s Resistance Movement
Accuracy in Academia ^ | June 7, 2017 | Brendan Cassell

One week after the terrorist attack in London that claimed 22 lives, Palestinian-American activist Linda Sarsour, a favorite on the campus lecture circuit, spoke at the March for Truth rally here about another attack that concerned her. "You have to continue to be outraged when on your watch and the watch of the American people we drop the mother of all bombs on Afghanistan," she said, in reference to the Trump Administration’s bombing of alleged ISIS training camps in that country.

Nevertheless, Sarsour is more concerned about the growth of the "resistance" movement in this country. "I also ask we all have some means, we all came here today in some form of transportation we probably picked up a bottle of water or we probably bought a coffee as we got here," Sarsour told the crowd. "This organizing is not free and in this country freedom is not free so we need your support for the organizers of the Women's March, of the Town Hall project, of the ACLU, of Moveon.org, of BMO, of Color of Change, all those who are on the frontlines of the resistance need your support whatever you can give 5$ 10$ we need to fund the resistance."

She made clear, that despite the theme of the rally, her own "resistance" went beyond the White House to the very system of government it represented. "I'm not a loyal Democrat," she said. "One of the reasons why I even vote as part of a two-party system is because that's what’s available to me at the moment."

"Knowing our country, we'll have to resist regardless whether number 45 is president or not," she said.

Guess what upsets the Left more, the MOAB dropped on ISIS caves in Afghanistan or the spate of terrorist attacks mostly committed by ISIS?

I’d expect a pigastinian to have renounced any identification with America.
