Dem. Pres. Candidates Sanders, Klobuchar, Castro, Bennet and Buttigieg plan to attend anti-semitic J Street conference in DC
“It is astonishing that J Street, an organization that claims to be pro-Israel and pro-peace, could imply that it is ‘unhelpful’ to label those who oppose Israel’s existence as ‘antisemitic’ or that this is a ‘complicated political debate’ with some ‘nuance.’ There is no complication or nuance here whatsoever.” Arsen Ostrovsky, an international human rights lawyer and pro-Israel advocate.
Antisemitic attacks have reached record levels in the United States, due to the ascension of the anti-Israel Left. Sadly, that will not prevent the Democrat Party’s presidential candidates (along with leading Congressional Democrats) from addressing this anti-Israel (and pro-jihad) hate group.r

Earlier this year the Democrat Party’s presidential candidates refused to attend the AIPAC conference. However, they will enthusiastically attend the J-Street conference, to appease the rapidly growing anti-Israel wing of the Democrat Party.
The Democrat Party’s embrace of anti-Israel hate groups is just another example of how far the Democrat Party has sunk. No rational American should support the Democrat Party in any way. #Jexodus!
