Bassem Eid, a longtime Palestinian Human Rights activist, responded to a tweet by AOC, which claimed that “A broad consensus of UN experts, @amnestyusa @hrw & Israeli human rights orgs have all formally recognized Israel’s treatment of Palestinians as apartheid.”

In response Eid tweeted, “I’m a Palestinian peace activist, @AOC, and you’re wrong. The only people calling Israel an apartheid state are trying to promote antisemitism around the world.”

He tweeted a video of himself in which he made the same observation.

AOC and other divisive BDS supporting Democrats stoked hatred this week by claiming that Israel is an apartheid and racist state.

This week, the House voted on a pro-Israel resolution, which passed 412-9-1. All members of the radical squad voted against it.

Eid, a Palestinian, is a former senior field researcher for B’Tselem, the Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the (so-called) ‘Occupied’ Territories. In 1996, he founded the Jerusalem-based Palestinian Human Rights Monitoring Group. In 2016, Eid became chairman of the Center for Near East Policy Research.

AOC is a brainless twit. The fact that her constituents overwhelmingly vote for her time and again, just goes to show how dumb and stupid the minorities in her community are.

There were a number of Black residents of South Africa, who actually lived under apartheid, and who visited Israel. They stated that any allegations of Israel being an apartheid state, were factually wrong, and were lies, since they personally experienced apartheid in South Africa. They further stated that no such situation exists in Israel, and they felt that such comparisons were outrageous.
