And that they're fine with "guilty until proven innocent" if the person is on the left and accused of antisemitism.

It's not just that he is on the Left, but his whole history. From co-founding chapter of the extremist SJP while a college student to his present obsession with wanting to arrest Bibi.

Whenever you claim an organization is "extremist" I take it with a grain of salt.

Whenever Derec says an organization is extremist I look it up and find out that he’s wrong.

Have you really looked into them and think that supporting Islamic terrorism is does not make them extremist?

How a pro-Palestinian campus group became a national lightning rod

In the days after the Oct. 7 terror attack, the national wing of SJP came under fierce scrutiny for a five-page “toolkit” document distributed to campus chapters. The document referred to the deadly assault as a “historic win for the Palestinian resistance.” The “toolkit” also suggested talking points for SJP chapters, such as: “We as Palestinian students in exile are PART of this movement, not in solidarity with this movement.”

This is related to how you and your Ilk on here refuse to condemn even the most toxic DSA politicians like Adam Hamawy and Avila Chevalier. They are part of your tribe, so they must be defended no matter what, right?

Thanks for the link.

That article proves my point:

Sophie Levitt, a Jewish student at Arizona State University in Tempe, joined the campus chapter of Students for Justice for Palestine when she was a freshman, eager to broaden her worldview after what she describes as a sheltered upbringing in suburban Illinois.


“I learned more about Palestine and how the movement for Palestinian freedom goes along with my own values,” said Levitt, 21, who is now a junior majoring in justice studies and one of the chapter’s key organizers.


In recent weeks, Levitt watched as people across the country — advocacy groups and politicians and fellow student activists — excoriated Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), a network of campus groups that are affiliated with a national wing but operate autonomously. In a court filing, the American Civil Liberties Union described the national wing as a “coalition and networking group for SJPs and other like-minded groups on college campuses across the nation.”

Free speech advocates and civil liberties organizations argue that the crackdowns on SJP chapters in Florida amount to unconstitutional infringements on the First Amendment. Meanwhile, some rank-and-file SJP members say their activism has been wrongly punished and incorrectly conflated with the national committee’s rhetoric.

“We don’t meet with them, we don’t really communicate with them, we don’t get funds from them,” said Malak Abuhashim, 21, a senior at Cornell University who has family in Gaza and is active in the campus SJP. “It’s not really that close of a relationship.”

The students in the article are not extremists. They don't support terrorism. They want justice and peace in the Middle East and are willing to say so in public.

Of course I refuse to condemn Adam Hamawy and Avila Chevalier. I don't know who they are and I don't condemn people for no reason.

A quick Google search yielded this about them:

Dr. Adam Hamawy and Darializa Avila Chevalier are prominent progressive political figures who won key Democratic congressional primary races in mid-2026. Backed by progressive movements, both ran campaigns heavily centered on universal healthcare, economic affordability, and shifting U.S. foreign policy regarding the Middle East. [1, 2, 3]

Backgrounds and 2026 Primary Wins

• • Dr. Adam Hamawy: A reconstructive trauma surgeon and former U.S. Army combat physician from New Jersey who volunteered in Gaza, winning a crowded primary in New Jersey's 12th Congressional District. [1, 2, 3]
  • Darializa Avila Chevalier: A 32-year-old doctoral student, community organizer, and political newcomer who defeated a long-term incumbent in New York's 13th Congressional District, focusing on renter protections, abolishing ICE, and progressive social safety nets. [1, 2, 3]

Why do you think I should condemn them?

Even if someone is "part of my tribe", why would I know every single member of "my tribe"? That's a lot of people to keep track of.
