The Bigotry Of Linda Sarsour: You Cannot Be A Zionist And A Feminist

In case it wasn’t already obvious, Women’s March organizer and faux feminist Linda Sarsour is a bigot. And if that wasn’t already obvious, this interview with The Nation – in which she posits you cannot be a Zionist and a feminist – makes that clear.

Can You Be a Zionist Feminist? Linda Sarsour Says No

In her op-ed, Emily Shire asks, “why should criticism of Israel be key to feminism in 2017?” I think she was being a bit flip there, but I’d love if you can answer her question in earnest.

I was quite surprised and disturbed by her piece. When you talk about feminism you’re talking about the rights of all women and their families to live in dignity, peace, and security. It’s about giving women access to health care and other basic rights. And Israel is a country that continues to occupy territories in Palestine, has people under siege at checkpoints—we have women who have babies on checkpoints because they’re not able to get to hospitals [in time]. It just doesn’t make any sense for someone to say, “Is there room for people who support the state of Israel and do not criticize it in the movement?” There can’t be in feminism. You either stand up for the rights of all women, including Palestinians, or none. There’s just no way around it.

Zionism is the aspiration of the Jewish people to return to their historical homeland. Sarsour would deny Jews that aspiration, and discount any Jew who holds that desire from being a feminist.

Meanwhile, the hypocritical Sarsour, who just said “You either stand up for the rights of all women, including Palestinians, or none” does not seem to include Saudi Arabian women in that blanket rule.

  1. The veil – or rather, the hijab – has finally been pulled from the “feminist” movement. The dynamic young leadership of feminism now comes from the least woman-friendly culture on this earth; not the brave rebels against it, but its proud proponents and spokeswomen. That feminism is becoming a tool of the jihad in the West is the final proof that it has literally nothing to do with the status of women, or with anyone’s rights, but is just another column advancing against the modern civilization of free minds and free markets, in the ancient and perennial attempt to bring about the complete and final tyranny.

  2. I’ve seen cases before where feminism has been defined as a laundry list of leftist causes/viewpoints, many having nothing to do with feminism.

    So, it doesn’t surprise me that someone is defining feminism as “you agree with my anti Israel views or you’re not a feminist”.

  3. this is why the money she raised should be returned (never shouldve been accepted in the first place)
    it was a pr stunt to allow her to say that she loves jews…just hates zionists
    she loves dead jews
    she is a filthy, jew hating jihadist and i show the bottoms of my shoes to her

    1. Yes. With no right of return for Jews Israel as a place of refuge for Jews is meaningless.

      Why do Jews need a place refuge? Learn about the Evian Conference. Read about what happened to the St. Louis ship.

      More recently see what living in France and Sweden is like for Jews.

      History repeats itself.

  4. So women who stand up for the right of Jews including the rights of Jewish women and children can’t be feminists.

    However Arab women who try murder Jews including defenseless women and children are true feminists.

    Got it!
