Title: Alan Dershowitz: Why I Will Leave Democratic Party If Keith Ellison Is Elected DNC Chairman

Tomorrow the Democratic National Committee (DNC) will have to choose the direction of the Democratic Party, as well as its likely composition. It will be among the most important choices the DNC has ever had to make.

There has been powerful push from the hard-left of the Democratic Party, led by senator Bernie Sanders, to elect Keith Ellison chairman. If he is elected, I will quit the party after 60 years of loyal association and voting.

I will become an independent, continuing to vote for the best candidates, most of whom, I assume, will still be Democrats.

But I will not contribute to the DNC or support it as an institution. My loyalty to my country and my principles and my heritage exceeds any loyalty to my party. I will urge other like-minded people – centrist liberals – to follow my lead and quit the Democratic Party if Ellison is elected chairman. We will not be leaving the Democratic Party we have long supported. The Democratic Party will be leaving us!

Let me explain the reasons for this difficult decision on my part. Ellison has a long history of sordid association with anti-Semitism. He worked closely and supported one of a handful of the most notorious and public anti-Semites in our country: The Reverend Louis Farrakhan. And he worked with Farrakhan at the very time this anti-Semite was publicly describing Judaism as a "gutter religion" and insisting that the Jews were a primary force in the African slave trade.

Ellison has publicly stated that he was unaware of Farrakhan's anti-Semitism. That is not a credible statement. Everyone was aware of Farrakhan's anti-Semitism. Farrakhan did not try to hide it. Indeed he proclaimed it on every occasion. Ellison is either lying or he willfully blinded himself to what was obvious to everyone else. Neither of these qualities makes him suitable to be the next Chairman of the DNC.

Moreover, Ellison himself has made anti-Semitic statements. A prominent lawyer, with significant credibility, told me that while he was a law student, Ellison approached her and said he could not respect her, because she was a Jew and because she was a woman who should not be at a law school. This woman immediately disclosed that anti-Semitic and anti-feminists statement to her husband and friends, and I believe she is telling the truth.

Ellison's anti-Semitism is confirmed by his support for another anti-Semite, Stokely Carmichael. When there were protests about Carmichael's speaking at the University of Minnesota, Ellison responded that "Political Zionism is off-limits no matter what dubious circumstances Israel was founded under; no matter what the Zionists do to the Palestinians; and no matter what wicked regimes Israel allies itself with — like South Africa. This position is untenable."

At a fundraiser for his re-election in 2010, hosted by Esam Omeish, who had told Palestinians that "Jihad way is the way to liberate your land," he complained that Jews had too much influence in American politics.

With regard to Israel, Ellison was one of only a small number of Congress people who recently voted against funding the Iron Dome, a missile system used by Israel to protect its civilians against rocket attacks by Hamas and Hezbollah. His voting record with regard to the Nation State of the Jewish people is among the very worst in Congress.

Ellison is now on an apology tour, but his apologies and renunciations of his past association with anti-Semitism have been tactical and timed to his political aspirations. He first claimed to realize that Farrakhan was an anti-Semite was when he ran for office seeking Jewish support. His claim to be a supporter of Israel was timed to coincide with his run for the chairmanship of DNC. I do not trust him. I do not believe him. And neither should centrist liberal supporters of Israel and opponents of anti-Semitism.

The DNC has a momentous choice this weekend. It can move the party in the direction of Jeremy Corbyn's labor party in England, in the hope of attracting Jill Stein Green Party voters and millennials who stayed home. In doing so they would be giving up on any attempt to recapture the working class and Rust Belt voters in the mid-western states that turned the Electoral College over to Donald Trump. Jeremy Corbyn today could not get elected dog catcher in Great Britain.

I do not want to see the Democratic Party relegated to permanent minority status as a hard-left fringe. Remember what happened when the Democrats moved left by nominating George McGovern, Walter Mondale and Michael Dukakis – all good men. The total combined electoral votes for these candidates would not have won a single election. There is no reason to think the country has moved so far to the left since those days that the Democrats can win by pushing even further in the direction of the hard left. The self-destructive election of Keith Ellison will be hard to undue for many years.

So tomorrow, the Democrats must choose between electing Ellison or keeping centrist liberals, who support Israel, like me and many others in their party. I hope they choose wisely. But if they do not, I have made my choice.


Poster Comment:

The younger Dems have no loyalty to Israel or hate Israel. The older moneyed generation is still very loyal to Israel. Schumer has to try to appease both. He chose to toss the older Israel supporters since he assumes, probably correctly, that they will still continue to vote for Dems even after they become indy voters.

Does Ellison support sex perverts using the wrong restroom because Mohammed molested little girls. Or is it because he likes goats?

Well, the demoncrat party went over the cliff when they supported nigger obutthole. That did a lot of damage to their party. Now, they want to nose dive into the bottom of the toilet with this muzzie?

That will be good for the nation, as that will, in political terms, put a shotgun to their head, and permanently destroy the demonturd party.

Now, if the Republicans will be smart enough to take advantage of it.

Unfortunately, they came to their senses and picked Perez over Ellison, 235-200.

Too bad. Ellison was a total disaster in motion.

So the Dersh got his way. No Ellison.

Very true,but in MY opinion NOT what we should focus on or talk to our fellow Americans about.

What we need to do is copy and paste this Dershowitz declaration of loyalty to Israel and NOT to the United States far and wide,and to ask everyone who reads it,"Dershowitz writes this and other screeds,thousands and thousands of word screaming about dangers to Israel,but WHERE IS EVEN ONE WORD MENTIONING THAT AMERICA AND AMERICANS ARE EVERY BIT AS MUCH AT RISK FROM FUNDIE MUSLIMS AS ISRAEL IS?

WHY all the concern for Israel and no concern at all expressed for America?

The obvious answer is because he,and people like him CARE ABOUT ISRAEL,AND DON'T GIVE A DAMN IF AMERICA SURVIVES OR NOT. IF they think about America at all,it is on how to weaken us and make us a part of a leftist global borg,but primarily as a source of military and political might to use to protect Israel.

To sum it up,"Yes,Ellison and Islam IS a threat to America,but so is Dershowitz and the pro-Israel lobby."

AFAIAC,pull BOTH of their citizenship's and run their asses out of America.

Dershowitz is not entirely passive about the Islamic threat. He does see Israel as the frontline state, surrounded on all sides by hostile populations, even if America does buy off the Egyptians and Jordanians and pay welfare to the Pali animals.

To sum it up,"Yes,Ellison and Islam IS a threat to America,but so is Dershowitz and the pro-Israel lobby."

They're really not comparable, IMO.

I disagree completely. BOTH put other nations ahead of America in importance,yet both are parasites sucking the blood and soul of America.

If Ellison had a choice of saving America or saving Saudi Arabia,but not both,he would save Saudi Arabia.

If Dershowitz had to choose between saving America or Israel,he would save Israel.

That makes them both traitors.

This is like saying that Christians in America and Christians in the Mideast are both threatened by Islam. And they are. Yet we know that in the Mideast, Christians are brutally persecuted by a majority of locals in those countries and the governments offer little protection. You can't say the same about American Christians.

If Ellison had a choice of saving America or saving Saudi Arabia,but not both,he would save Saudi Arabia.

Mecca/Medina and all of Saudi Arabia are a holy land to Muslims. The black meteorite is there as are many irreplaceable shrines. It would not be hard to imagine that there are, for instance, American Catholics who would rather see New York leveled by an H-bomb than Rome simply because they consider the Vatican to be irreplaceable to (their flavor of) Christianity.

If Dershowitz had to choose between saving America or Israel,he would save Israel.

Maybe, maybe not. In any event, a nuclear strike on just America or just on Israel is fairly unlikely. It is more likely that both would be struck at once or in close sequence, particularly given the rise of the Iranian Bomb.

That makes them both traitors.

Treason under our laws may be succinctly summarized as actively colluding with an armed and menacing enemy of this country. Like Benedict Arnold. Neither Dershowitz nor Ellison rise to that level IMO. Dershowitz doesn't even come close, Ellison more so.

I'm not that interested in knocking you off your soapbox. There's no payoff.

So if you want to be a dumbass, roar on. Ellison still won't be chairman of the DNC. Unfortunately for us. He would have been a beautiful disaster, comparable to Dingy Harry's weakening of the Senate filibuster. Ted Cruz can't stop toasting Reid for it.

BullBush! Treason is aiding another country at the expense,and possible danger of America. Whether that country is armed and hostile at that time is irrelevant.

So if you want to be a dumbass, roar on.

I'm not the one committing treason by supporting a foreign country (Israel),you are. That also makes you the dumbass.

I'm not supporting Israel, I'm just saying you are making a lot of assumptions and making no effort to consider what Dershowitz actually believes, based on what he has said over the years.

You go too far to say he is a traitor. I don't think you could make even a case that he is un-American. I would, for instance, take a dozen Dershowitz's if I could get rid of Soros and his tentacled organizations in this country.

We've probably disagreed enough for one thread. Ellison wasn't elected DNC chair and so Dersh won't leave the Dem party. We're beating a dead horse here.

No big deal. That's why they are called "opinions".

Well,KINDA true. He was appointed as the second in command,so it's not like he's selling pencils on street corners. I see it as being more of a "bait and switch" than anything else.

and so Dersh won't leave the Dem party.

She has no where to go. It's a little late in her personal "Game" to be declaring herself to be a Her-Panic.
