The Black Lives Matter movement is now aligning with Palestine

Aug 9, 2016, 9:43 AM | Updated: 9:44 am

The new political platform for the Black Lives Matter movement calls out Israel. They officially call Israel an apartheid state.

Leaders of the Black Lives Matter movement have gone to Palestine and received training from the government arm of Hamas. Now Palestine is in the platform and literature of the Black Lives Matter movement.

And all of this leads to pointing a rhetorical gun at anything traditional in American or capitalistic values because the BLM platform is also Marxist.

They say the struggle is for freedom but the struggle is really for government power. They are trying to convince African Americans that they are living in an occupied territory.

The bridge that is being built is a bridge to global Marxism. They are building a bridge that involves Hamas. And what does Hamas do to gay people? They throw them off rooftops. What does Hamas do to further its goals? They shoot rockets into Israel.

Is that part of the Black Lives Matter movement, too? Or are they only about “peaceful” Marxism?
