Republican Jewish Coalition demands resignation of Democratic leaders with ties to Farrakhan

Did Farrakhan ever run for office on the Democratic ticket? Those ties are that seven Democrats have at some point attended meetings at which Farrakhan was also present.

What about Republicans with ties to David Duke who was an elected Republican Louisiana State Representative or Arthur Jones who is set to set to win a Chicago area GOP Congressional District primary. https://worldisraelnews.com/holocaust-denier-anti-semite-set-claim-gop-nomination-congressional-race/ or even Pat Buchanan? https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2015/04/29/pat-buchanan-pens-exclusive-anti-semitic-publication

Both parties have affiliations with a host unsavory individuals, the Republican Jewish Coalition should focus on pulling the log out of their own eye before they try to pull a mote from the eyes of Democrats. I suspect that if every Republican who ever attended a meeting with an anti-Semite were forced to resign, the number would be far larger than 7.

How can he be anti-Semitic when he is a Muslim - most Muslims speak a Semitic language - to be anti-Semitic would mean that he would have to be against all Semitic speaking people.

Semitic languages, languages that form a branch of the Afro-Asiatic language phylum. Members of the Semitic group are spread throughout North Africa and Southwest Asia and have played preeminent roles in the linguistic and cultural landscape of the Middle East for more than 4,000 years. In the early 21st century the most important Semitic language, in terms of the number of speakers, was ARABIC. (Encyclopedia Britannica)

Most of Northern Africa speak a Semitic language: The most widely spoken Semitic languages today are Arabic, Amharic, Tigrinya, Hebrew, Tigre, Aramaic and Maltese. So in actuality he would have to be against all of these people to be truly considered anti-Semitic.

Now, you can say he is anti-Jew and possibly be correct.

Anti-Semitism, hostility toward or discrimination against Jews as a religious or racial group. The term anti-Semitism was coined in 1879 by the German agitator Wilhelm Marr to designate the anti-Jewish campaigns under way in central Europe at that time. (Encyclopedia Britannica)

So even though the Jewish religion had been around for thousands of years and probably was discriminated against just like every other religion on the planet at one time or another it wasn't until 1879 that someone coined the phase anti-Semitism and decided to associate it with the Jewish religion - never mind all the other Semitic speaking people that have been around for thousands of years.

Make no mistake Judaism (being a Jew) is a Religion just like Christianity and Islam and Buddhism, etc..

Challenge accepted. He has the right to free speech as anyone else. He has never been linked, accused, or sentenced for anything he said where others who were got away Scott free. When he commits a crime, then we can talk. Where are the resignations of those republicans who support openly or covertly white nationalism, NEO Nazis, or other groups who have said equally bad or worse about Jews? I only said Republicans because the article makes it political. Dems are no better. Don’t see Faux beating the drums to have the WH resign over comments made that are racist at worst, ignorant at best.
