A battle has erupted between CNN’s Jake Tapper and left-wing Muslim activist Linda Sarsour, after Tapper called out the Women’s March group co-chaired by Sarsour after tweeting their support for convicted cop-killing domestic terrorist Assata Shakur, who has been ducking American justice in Cuba since 1984.
Shakur – aunt of deceased rapper Tupac Shakur, is a member of the far-left Black Liberation Army (BLA) and was convicted of the 1977 murder of New Jersey State Trooper Werner Foster during a shootout on the NJ Turnpike. Shakur escaped prison in 1979, and after five years on the run fled to Cuba where she currently lives under political asylum.
In light of Women’s March tweet in support of Shakur, Tapper responded:
Shakur is a cop-killer fugitive in Cuba. This, ugly sentiments from @lsarsour & @dykemarchchi …Any progressives out there condemning this? https://t.co/rXnHLgE2hR

In response, Sarsour responded that the very liberal Tapper had joined ‘the ranks of the alt-right to target me online.’
.@jaketapper joins the ranks of the alt-right to target me online. Welcome to the party.
— Linda Sarsour (@lsarsour) July 18, 2017
Sarsour then slipped into the well worn reactionary identity politics of those with no argument – suggesting that Tapper was perhaps referring to her being a Palestinian, pro-immigrant Muslim.
.@jaketapper please share my "ugly" sentiments? Unapologetically Muslim? Unapologetically Palestinian? Pro-immigrant? Pro-justice? Shame.

Nope! Tapper responded by calling Sarsour out for attacking actual feminist – Somali-born Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a former Muslim turned atheist and a victim of female genital mutilation (FGM).
Your comment about @Ayaan for one.

Ali (@Ayaan) – a fellow at Harvard Kennedy School of Government and founder of a women’s rights organization, has been a vocal critic of Islam.

Jake Tapper’s tweet referring to Sarsour’s comments on Ali was in reference to a 2011 tweet in which Sarsour said Ali and was “asking 4 an a$$ whippin,’
Kurt Eichenwald Seizes the Moment
After Sarsour’s alt-right comment Newsweek writer Kurt Eichenwald could no longer bite his tongue – letting Sarsour know that her attack on Tapper was a bad idea…
I've paid little attention to controversies involving you. But if ur calling @jaketapper alt-right? Not a big credibility boost for u.

Real feminists don't advocate destroying their opponent's vaginas while defending regimes that regularly mutilate women's clitorises.

I'm just happy that at least somebody in the media with an influential platform has sounded off on this. Thank you, Jake Tapper.

Are the lefties finally coming to their senses? Sarsour is the gift that doesn’t give.

That ad sums it all up beautifully. Ppl just dont get it. They refuse to acknowledge that is all in the Quran: the permission to kill Jews and Christians (Surah 9:29), to terrorize non-Muslims (8:12), to rape young girls (65:4), to enslave people for sex (4:3), to lie about one’s true goals (3:54), and the command to make war on the infidels (9:123) and subjugate the entire world to Allah (9:33)….Allah is our objective; the Prophet is our Leader; the Quran is our law; Jihad is our way; dying in the path of Allah is our highest hope.
#ShariaForAmerica ~ There is no Islam without Sharia Law. There is no Sharia without the Caliphate. There is no Caliphate without Jihad.

As psychotic and deranged as you are, you will find little argument from me when it comes to the “religion of peace”.
Muslims don’t belong in civilized countries as their faith is the antithesis of civilization. Those that want to stay should denounce their faith thereby ensuring they are “all in” on their new home as they will be killed as apostates by fellow Muslims.
Or alternatively there needs to be an Islamic reformation where the religion moves closer to some of their sects. Ismaili Muslims are a great example of a reformed, peaceful sect of Islam.
That evil cunt could probably kick his ass.
Those Tweets are like the echoes of an asylum of the incurably insane.
ZeroPointNow: Cop-killer civilians are no more “terrorists” than the civilian-killing cops.
It’s dishonest to lump Assata Shakur in with the terrorists & religious affiliations of the turban-headded Jihadists monkeys in the ME. Thousands of innocent civilians are killed, brutalized, framed, extorted, raped, lives destroyed, families destroyed by the US Police state.
She was a product of her environment motivated freedom vs religious mania.
I have 0 sympathy the what happens to those deranged psychopaths in Blue.
I have the upmost respect for the REAL patriots of the country, the Military.
fuck the police. fuck stupid ass religions, especially Islam. fuck fake-news-CNN
+ It’s quite possible that Assata Shakur is innocent and wrongly convicted…. something that’s was standard back then, and still highly prevalent today.
+ I forgot to say fuck Linda Sarsour.
Perhaps he is not deranged at all?
Cognitive dissidence is a powerful thing.
