Former six-term US Congresswoman and once-Green Party presidential candidate Cynthia McKinney has blamed “Zionists” for the 9/11 terrorist attacks. McKinney is such a rabid antisemite that earlier this year she agreed to appear on a white supremacist show simply to bash Jews.
Social media users were quick to point out that Al Jazeera anchor Marc Lamont Hill advocated on behalf of McKinney when she ran for president, although he subsequently downplayed his enthusiasm. However, McKinney was clearly an antisemite before her presidential run. For example, in 2001, she posed with a Holocaust denier at the infamous Durban Conference.
Lamont Hill previously was fired from his job as a CNN commentator after effectively calling for the elimination of Israel during a speech at the United Nations. Perhaps Lamont Hill is accustomed to lying, especially when considering he now works at Al Jazeera, Qatar’s state-funded mouthpiece that is widely considered one of the most anti-Israel outlets in the world.
