Alleged Hamas-linked group… bruh, can’t name this group right in the title so people will call your BS and move on?
It’s CAIR. They are Hamas linked in a “we celebrate them pushing Israel out though we’ve historically denounced Hamas terrorism” kind of way.
My God, they’re practically ISIS
Alleged by the fascists.
Net and Yahoo’s Hamas and friends bridge club
“From members of”
Not discriminating muslim people is antisemitic
Oh shoot, I’ve been a naughty Jew…
They’re talking about CAIR, the Coucil on American-Islamic relations. It’s a civil rights organisation that tries to fight the unbelievable amount of islam hate in the US.

fuck you
meanwhile taking millions from AIPAC, money directly linked to apartheid and genocide, is just business as usual.
What is aipac
American Israel Public Affairs Committee
What the hell is the America Israel public affairs committee?
It’s a lobby organization in favor of the state of Israel. They spend significant amounts of money on elections, to favor the side that best represents Israels interest.
Edit: thanks for asking the question. So Wikipedia said they were founded after the backlash against Israel for their Qibya massacre. Which is when Israel decided to massacre a small village to make a statement (“kill any Jew and we will kill 20 of yours”, I guess). And the world was actually outraged. Also the guy who led the operation would later become the prime minister of Israel. And the government of Israel communicated the obvious lie that they had nothing to with this heinous crime…
I fully support Hamas
“alleged hamas-linked”
Scumbag: BLM donates to Hamas! BLM donates to El-Sayed! El-Sayed is Hamas! I am do muchy logicing with my smarts brian.
Every employee at the New York Post suspected to have alleged confirmed ties to Jeffrey Epstein organization.
They say “alleged” because it’s of course bullshit. What’s not bullshit is that Hayley Stevens, his opponent in the primary, is funded by Zionist money.
Just wait, I’m sure he also had a whole caravan of illegal immigrants shipped in to give him extra votes too 🙄
Took money from Hamas? That’s awful.
Everyone should be giving money to these brave freedom fighters.deleted by creator
I don’t understand why his tweets keep getting posted here, Fuck this guy he had a friendly debate with Eylon Levy

I would 100% post Piers Morgan.
90% of Piers the last 3 years is Piers putting on a clown hat and giving Palestine activists an open goal to score. Then he posts a short of it and everyone in the comments dunks on him. I’m quite certain Piers is doing it on purpose. Over the past 3 years Piers Morgan has been a much better ally to the Palestinian cause than Mehdi Hasnake.
That said Mehdi is on the Chomsky tier of calling out propaganda. As long as you don’t subscribe to his ideology of voting Democrat for the 9000th time as the solution to all your problems he has a lot of valid takes.
I can find issues with every online content creator. I’ve even got this person in my inbox who has large issues with people who aren’t even Democrat plants like Mehdi Hasnake https://lemmy.ml/post/51050025/27110323

What’s been reduced to a talking point here? Do you only post takes of people you 100% ideologically align with and who would those be?
Recently we even had Ali Abumanah, Rania Khalek and others celebrating the wins of milquetoast Liberal Zionists I wouldn’t call allies to the Palestinians cause but I’m not going to stop posting their content either.
Mehdi is an opportunist Liberal who isn’t pushing the overton window for sure but he does occasionally say some valid stuff. Takes like these calling out Jewish Exceptionalism in media reporting are still quite rare these days

Ali Abumanah and Rania Khalek aren’t random Twitter users.
My view is that posting a Mehdi Hasnake quote is no different than posting a BBC article if that makes any sense. Coincidentally Mehdi used to work for the BBC as well.
You don’t have to like the person to agree with one thing they say.
I don’t know anything about this guy, are those allegations false?
Kind of false kind of true, 100% overblown smear campaign. The donations came from people who are members of CAIR (center for American and Islamic relations). A group pegged as a terrorist organization in Florida, Texas, and the United Arab Emirates (which to me is a green flag in CAIR’s favor, lol)
They’ve vocally opposed Israel’s invasion and supported Hamas in defending Palestinians but have historically denounced Hamas terrorist actions.
So, yeah, they’re Hamas linked, but in a “they’re the people fighting Israeli occupation” kind of way.
Edit to add: as far as I can tell the donations were personal donations by people who happen to be members of CAIR, not from CAIR itself even. Making it even more overblown smear when compared to, say, 60 million straight from AIPAC that others had received
Hamas-linked suggests ties to Hamas, not mere support. I don’t think there’s anything to this. Moreover, who cares when Haley Stevens, Abdul’s opponent in the primary, is funded by an extraordinary amount of Zionist money? Surely the Zionist occupation that’s currently committing genocide is worse than a group violently resisting it.
Like I said, kinda false, kinda true, 100% smear.
I’d 100% have picked him in the primary and would vote for him in general election if I could
It’s not “kinda true”. It’s just outright false. If I support Hamas in the struggle against genocide that doesn’t mean I have links with Hamas. That’s not how this works.
Except it is kinda true, they do have documented links with Hamas. There’s a fair bit of evidence for it. It’s just they’d be crazy not to have links to at least discuss with or influence a major power in the area they’re from
It’s wild how Palestinians living in the West are somehow expected to have had absolutely zero contact in their life with the government of Gaza.
It’s also wild how Hamas is expected to disarm while the entity committing genocide isn’t. Blatant hypocrisy.
Alright, I stand corrected then. Not that I particularly care about electoralism anyway, but it’s always interesting to see how nakedly corrupt US elections are.
Net and Yahoo funded Hamas.
Has the NYP ever been trustworthy?
The burden of proof is on those making the claim.
I don’t know anything about you! Are YOU taking money from Hamas?!
