Democrats’ welcome to the anti-Israel left has grown so bad that they’ve now tapped the next worst thing to al Qaeda associate for a safe House seat in New Jersey: The crazies are edging ever-closer to being the party establishment.
Primary voters in Jersey’s 12th district on Tuesday tapped radical Dr. Adam Hamawy; he’s a shoe-in in November.
Even though he’s a longtime associate of terrorist mastermind Omar Abdel-Rahman, the “Blind Sheik” — and also volunteered with an al Qaeda-linked group in Bosnia and at a Hamas-friendly hospital in Gaza.
Helping him over the top were endorsements from Squad Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), and Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), plus lefty Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) and socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).
Yes, it was a large field; Hamawy won with only 28% of the vote — but since nearly all the other candidates were also anti-Israel, his terror-friendliness may have been an asset.
This follows the win last month by radical Chris Rabb (who campaigned with antisemitic podcaster Hasan Piker) for a safe-Dem Philadelphia seat in the House, as well as Analilia Meija in another Jersey primary, again as the most rabidly anti-Israel choices.
Here in New York City — whose mayor boycotted the Israel Day parade — Claire Valdez and Brad Lander are working anti-Israel obsessions to quite possibly capture other safe Dem seats.
In Michigan, Abdul El-Sayed leads in Democrats’ Senate primary after appearing with Piker and publicly struggling not to condemn the killing of Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Meanwhile, long-Nazi-tatted Graham Platner is trying to restore his mojo in Maine’s Senate race by pretending incumbent Sen. Susan Collins is owned by Israel.
What will it take for Sen. Chuck Schumer and other sane Democrats to stand up to the haters?
If they don’t move fast, the antisemites will soon be purging them.
