Cory Booker claims he didn't read anti-Israel sign he allowed himself to be photographed holding
American Thinker ^ | 08/04/2018 | Thomas Lifson

Senator Cory Booker, who is one of the Democrats contending for his party's 2020 nomination for president, is pleading political negligence, claiming that he didn't bother to read a sign that he allowed himself to be photographed holding.  Booker, who has raised considerable money from pro-Israel Jewish groups, apparently got carried away with intersectional enthusiasm at the Netroots Nation confab and was unable to get a clue from the t-shirt on the woman standing next to him that proclaimed Palestine's virtue in the realm of "feminist/queer refugee racial justice" that he might be endorsing a radical point of view.

The professionally printed sign reads, "From Palestine to Mexico all the walls have got to go."

As Aaron Bandler points out at Jewish Journal, that slogan was crafted by the US Campaign for Palestinian Rights, and "standing next to Booker on his left is Leah Muskin-Pirret, the U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights' government associate."

The U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights, according to a Tablet exposé, is the "American umbrella group of the BDS [Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions] movement" and has funneled its money toward Islamic terror groups like Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).

The U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights has also celebrated convicted terrorist Rasmea Odeh[.]

Booker says he "didnt read" the sign he was holding.

Frankly, I'm surprised he can read at all.

The Democrat field is very crowded, this will give him a large block of voters to start out with. It was a smart move, considering the competition he has.

Looks like he means business for 2020.

“...What do you want to bet the chick in black has never been to Palestinian held territory?....”
Agreed. You’d likely win that bet.
I have been to Palestinian held territory and it ain’t pretty. Squalor, graffiti, trash everywhere, low-life hanging around by the dozens on every street corner making obscene gestures to anybody that don’t look like them.....just plain NASTY. Crossing back over into Israel was literally a breath of “fresh air”.
To those that support these nasty-azz turds, they need to go take a visit.

MAN! You need to go get a stronger cup of coffee!

Politicians ALWAYS have to pay attention to what is going on around them. Situational awareness is a crucial life skill!! Do you think Trump got to where he is by not paying attention to the idiots around him? Do you think The Cankle just didnt pay attention and lost the presidential election?

Are you really supporting the notion that the girl with the PRO-Palestine message and the sign he is holding promoting no borders between Palestine/Israel and Mexico/US depicts something else besides ANTI ISRAEL and ANTI U.S. rhetoric?

He didnt read it but he held it up to be photographed with it?

Its not like we have unchecked illegal immigration from Israel into Syria or Egypt. Or Mexicans and every other ethnicity paying thousands of dollars to be smuggled into Guatamala.

Booker is an imbicel that proves his worth to support the liberals that elected him every chance he gets, and it sounds like you are defending his stupidity.

“People wanted a picture” — Have you watched either of Trumps rallies the last week. The song he ends the rally with is “You Cant Always Get What You Want” by The Rolling Stones

I was going to say “WHAT AN IDIOT!”, but that would be too kind (and not fair to idiots).

Does this even matter, any more? I thought the Left had become as publicly and blatantly anti-Israel as American liberal Jews are. :)

= = = = = = = = = = =
You are 100% correct in your ‘entire’ response.

I did say that he should pay attention and yes, no telling who is ‘hanging out’ at these things.
I was merely pointing out that if in a ‘rush’ he looks down, sees no fences ‘Mexico’ and says ‘nothing wrong with that’ ...

As to ‘people’ wanted pictures, couldn’t you agree that PDT is in a (somewhat) pickle now because he ‘agreed’ to have his picture taken with anyone who claimed to be anyone and just wanted a ‘souvenier’.

PDT and his pictures with Mimosa, Stormy, the Playboy Model’, his ‘off the cuff interviews’ would destroy the ‘average’ bear as well as the donations to HRC, Schumer, Sharpton etc etc etc.
((Then again as a billionaire, big TV ‘star’, Star on Hollywood Walk of Fame, did he think he wanted to take on the chore of President while basking in his ‘glory’)

PDT ‘survives’ because in his mind he ‘knew’ they were harmless and in ‘big business’ covers all the bases so you donate equally to each party and if it looks like ‘hosting’ a ‘celebrity’ wedding or such, still a mild form of ‘bribery’ unless one is willing to say they were PERSONAL friends with the taker..

As to what happened XX years ago, look at the $hiite $torm being raised with athletes for crap they may have said in HS. These guys are being made by their teams to grovel in front of the cameras for a tweet (whatever) they did when they were 17.

Of course, when it is ‘aired’ out now it should never come up again when they are being inducted into HOF or they decide to go in politics....
