Two Democratic lawmakers told a liberal Jewish conference on Monday they support the inclusion in the 2020 party platform of language on Israeli occupation of territories claimed by the Palestinians.
One of them also argued that their party has not shifted on the Israeli-Palestinian issue; rather the Republicans have veered away from what he suggested used to be the mainstream position.
Speaking at the J Street national conference gala dinner in Washington, Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) expressed strong support for the idea now being actively championed by J Street of inserting opposition to occupation in the platform.
I think its essential, she said to cheers. I think we have to take it on. We have to take it on strongly.

Ms. Paypal is a Marxist nut so I figured that she would say something really stupid like this.
However, Chris Von Hollen (D-Md) is supposed to be a little bit smarter (as a Steny Hoyer clone and ahole twin).
However, this Paypal/Von Hollen statement is a major blunder as the Jewish population of Baltimore (what ever remains in NW sector (Park Heights Ave) and bordering Baltimore County WILL NOT TAKE LIGHTLY TO THIS BETRAYAL of ISRAEL.
I’ll tell you why. I used to write an occasional piece for the Balto. Jewish Times but more importantly for the Pikesville-based Baltimore City/County publication “The Northwest Star” that had a very heavy Jewish presence/readership. I was its DC correspondent for many years. Back then, Jewish voters were more moderate as were the Democrats in general (the Dems betrayal of the Jewish voters began after 1968 with the election of black Communist Rep. Parren Mitchell (D-Md) over centrist Dem. Sam Freidel.
Today Jewish Dems are rabid liberals for the most part (i.e. Depression survivors and their indoctrinated pro-FDR children/grandchildren). Trying to talk some “common sense” to them is almost impossible so what Jayapal, Van Hollen, Corey Booker, Tlaib the Insane, Omar the Traitor, and Comrade Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vt)etc. are saying about cutting off aid to Israel, is very important> It should result in a serious drop in liberal/somewhat sane Jewish liberal support/money for the Democrat Party.
Many years ago, during the 1984 and 1988 presidential campaigns for the Democrats, anti-Israel, pro-PLO position papers were submitted to the Democratic Party Central Committee/Campaign Platform committees for approval.
Needless to say that neither Mondale or Dukakis would touch them (because they were actually gentlemen). However, in 1988, the Marxist-Palestinian contingent of the DP tried to insert very anti-Israel resolutions into the Party platform. It was even written up in the Washington Post, which, back then, wasn’t a rabid Marxist shit-sheet despite its very left leanings.
One of the driving forces behind this effort was Jack O’Dell (aka Hunter Pitts O’Dell, aka John Vesey) the southern organizer for the Communist Party USA and a suspected KGB asset (I think he may have recently died of old age - may he rot in Hell). (HCUA hearings, “Communism in the South”, 1956, major section on O’Dell).
Due to a stroke of luck, I was part of a small pro-Israel publication (CAMERA) delegation that met with one of the top Democrat Party leaders, an honest man named Robert Nathan, who was well known and respected for his being a member of the Govt’s “braintrust” who planned how to fight WW2. Nathan was the author of the “Total War” mobilization concept that finally won acceptance despite some isolationist Democrats strong opposition.
Bob was also very pro-Israel and when I mentioned to him that I had prepared a paper on O’Dell’s background as a Communist Party organizer and key leader of pro-PLO organizations (including the Palestine Human Rights Campaign), his ears perked up and he said, “Let me look at your paper”. He did and then said, “I’ll take care of this”.
I can only speculate, with a smile, that he did “take care of this” and tell the Democrat Party to squash the Communist/Pro-PLO faction like a roach on the floor, because their anti-Israel platform positions NEVER made it into the final Platform.
Lesson learned: Reds and pro-PLO/Hamas/Fatah/Islamic Jihad elements are deeply embedded in the Democrat Party (and Congress) like Lyme Disease ticks. J Street and its members, the far-left, anti- Israel organization, are the new KAPOS on the block for Israel Jews and American Jews and friends who support a free and safe Israel.
Add in KAPO (pro-Nazi helper during WW2 in Hungary) Soros’s money and meddling into Democrat politics (J Street was reportedly partially funded by Soros during its early years), as well as possibly Israeli politics via Obama surrogates, and you have quite a group of traitors who are both anti-America and anti-Israel.
The Democrat Party of today is “THE EXISTENTIAL THREAT” to both America and Israel’s freedom. PERIOD.
I’ve been around for 74 years, 50 as a journalist/writer/research (on two national best sellers about Vietnam, plus a major Senate study on communist terrorism in Vietnam). I’ve known some of the greatest journalists and politicians and military leaders in American and even world history, as well as a few honest Democrats.
Today, I view the Democrats and their leftist rabble (Antifa, Refuse Fascism, Black Lives Matter, etc) as “our domestic enemies” who must be destroyed in order for America to survive. This includes destroying J Street, Sanders and the “Red-Green” (Marxist-Islamic) alliance led by Omar, Tlaib, Payapal, Sarsour, and the black congresswoman from Massachusetts, plus Crazy Uncle Bernie and his evil sister clone, Liz “She who squats with buffalos” Warren.
This is war. Take no prisoners. To my fellow Jewish brethren, if you haven’t learned the lessons of appeasement and the Holocaust, you’d better catch up on your reading, Fast. I say this a member of a family wiped out in Europe by the Nazi Holocaust. Listen to our enemies because they will include you if you do not join in lock-step with them.
O’Dell was helping Andrew Young and Jesse Jackson cozy up to the PLO in the 70s and 80s.
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
Yes, Van Hollen is a real name. He has been not representing me for a long time, here in Maryland.
