They are all the same. Do you really think Sheere will be any different?

Do you think Palestinians would like to be called Semite? It is most attributed to Jewish people isn't it?

In the racialist classifications of Carleton S. Coon, the Semitic peoples were considered to be members of the Caucasian race, not dissimilar in appearance to the neighbouring Indo-European, Northwest Caucasian, and Kartvelian-speaking peoples of the region.[10] As language studies are interwoven with cultural studies, the term also came to describe the religions (ancient Semitic and Abrahamic) and Semitic-speaking ethnicities as well as the history of these varied cultures as associated by close geographic and linguistic distribution.[11]
Some recent genetic studies have found (by analysis of the DNA of Semitic-speaking peoples) that they have some common ancestry. Although no significant common mitochondrial results have been found, Y-chromosomal links between Semitic-speaking peoples of the Middle East like Arabs, Jews, Mandaeans, Samaritans, and Assyrians/Syriacs have shown links, despite differences contributed from other groups (see Y-chromosomal Aaron).
A DNA study of "six Middle Eastern populations (Ashkenazi, Sephardic, and Kurdish Jews from Israel; Muslim Kurds; Muslim Arabs from Israel and the Palestinian Authority Area; and Bedouin from the Negev)" found that Jews were more closely related to groups in the north of the Fertile Crescent (Kurds, Turks, and Armenians) than to their Arab neighbors.[12][13]
Genetic studies indicate that modern Jews (Ashkenazi, Sephardic and Mizrahi specifically), Levantine Arabs, Assyrians/Syriacs, Samaritans, Maronites, Druze, Mandaeans, and Mhallami, all have a common Near Eastern heritage which can be genetically mapped back to the ancient Fertile Crescent, but often also display genetic profiles distinct from one another, indicating the different histories of these peoples.[14]

The terms "anti-Semite" or "antisemitism" came by a circuitous route to refer more narrowly to anyone who was hostile or discriminatory towards Jews in particular.

https://www.britannica.com/topic/anti-Semitism

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. Although the term now has wide currency, it is a misnomer, since it implies a discrimination against all Semites. Arabs and other peoples are also Semites, and yet they are not the targets of anti-Semitism as it is usually understood. The term is especially inappropriate as a label for the anti-Jewish prejudices, statements, or actions of Arabs or other Semites. Nazi anti-Semitism, which culminated in the Holocaust, had a racist dimension in that it targeted Jews because of their supposed biological characteristics—even those who had themselves converted to other religions or whose parents were converts. This variety of anti-Jewish racism dates only to the emergence of so-called “scientific racism” in the 19th century and is different in nature from earlier anti-Jewish prejudices.

Democrats Ready to Throw Ilhan Omar Under the Bus, Again




Omar has been under sustained attack for saying recently that it is worth talking about, in her words, “the political influence in this country that says it is okay for people to push for allegiance to a foreign country.”

“I want to ask, Why is it OK for me to talk about the influence of the [National Rifle Association], or fossil fuel industries or Big Pharma, and not talk about a powerful lobbying group that is influencing policy?” she continued—a clear reference to AIPAC, which is a powerful lobbying group that influences policy on Israel all the time.
It is, again, a very obvious truth that the mainstream political establishment in the United States demands support and loyalty with regard to Israel, and that is all Omar was saying. Did we all forget that, just a few weeks ago, the Senate, in a 77-23 vote, passed a bill that included a highly constitutionally dubious provision allowing local governments to punish companies that back a boycott of Israel? Or that states are indeed demanding that people literally pledge not to boycott Israel if they want contracts? What more evidence do you need?
Wait, you need more evidence? Here’s a tweet from Democratic Rep. Juan Vargas today:



It is disturbing that Rep. Omar continues to perpetuate hurtful anti-Semitic stereotypes that misrepresent our Jewish community. Additionally, questioning support for the U.S.-Israel relationship is unacceptable. (1/2)
— Rep. Juan Vargas (@RepJuanVargas) March 4, 2019

​
“Questioning support for the U.S.-Israel relationship is unacceptable.” It’s there in black and white. Pointing out that this is the prevailing view in Washington is not anti-Semitic. (Though, speaking as a Jew, I can certainly say that assuming that all Jews feel the same way about Israel, or that Israel is automatically the representative for all Jews, is definitely anti-Semitic.)

Massachusetts Is The Most Intolerant State In U.S., Study Says


http://patch.com/massachusetts/boston/ma-most-politically-intolerant-state-u-s-study-says






Not Georgia... Not Mississippi... Not Alabama... Massachusetts.


I am not surprised. When Boston was voted the most racist city in America I wasn't surprised either.


Massachusetts is run by the Liberals and Democrats top to bottom. Democrat White Liberals from Massachusetts have been sent to jail for Gerrymandering. Not Gerrymandering Republican areas... Gerrymandering Minority Communities to protect White Liberal Politicians. The whole city of Boston is being gentrified. Wealthy White Liberals are pushing out all middle class and poor families into the run down Mill Cities that surround Boston.


That is why the Boston City Councilwoman stated... "The Democrat Party is straight up racist."

In Open Letter, Jewish Americans Come Out in Support of Ilhan Omar




American Jews, including prominent figures like Naomi Klein, have signed an open letter in support of Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar.
The letter states that she has been “falsely accused of antisemitism” and that there was nothing anti-Semitic about calling out the “noxious” role of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) in American politics.
It went on to say that “The pro-Israel lobby has played an outsized role in producing nearly unanimous congressional support for Israel”, and slammed AIPAC and other lobby groups including the National Rifle Association (NRA) and the fossil fuel lobby for its “anti-democratic” legislative influence on US politics.

The letter finished by saying “We thank Ilhan Omar for having the bravery to shake up the congressional taboo against criticizing Israel. As Jews with a long tradition of social justice and anti-racism, AIPAC does not represent us.” and called on other Jews to sign the letter.
Omar has faced huge backlash after calling out AIPAC, including facing accusations of anti-Semitism from both Democrats and Republicans, floor action against her by Nancy Pelosi, and disturbing posters at a Republican event, linking her to the 9/11 attacks.
The charge of anti-Semitism comes after Omar said that the Republican Party’s threats against her and Palestinian-American congresswoman Rashida Tlaib for criticising Israel was “all about the Benjamins, baby!” in reference to money allegedly paid to the party and its members to support Tel Aviv.
When she was asked to clarify who is paying members, she cited AIPAC, which has previously boasted about its financial influence in US politics.

Maryland delegate says she won't resign after House censures her for 'racist and hateful slur'

Of course she won't resign. She is a Democrat and racism is what being a Democrat is all about.

Well considering that the top 3 Democrats in Maryland have been caught in black face, KKK attire, and have been accused of rape and still haven't resigned one can only see why yet another Democrat would also refuse to give up her seat.
