CNN commentator and Morehouse College professor Marc Lamont Hill, who recently tweeted that he supports the demographic destruction of the State of Israel, has arrived safely in “occupied Jerusalem.”
وصلت بأمان في القدس المحتلة

His purpose, it would seem from his instagram account, is to report on Palestinian “humiliation.”

As far as I can tell, he hasn’t expressed any concern about the fact that, as reported by the Jewish Press, there have been over one thousand attacks on Jews in Israel between September 18 and October 18. Over one thousand. Here’s the breakdown from JP:
- Petrol Bomb Attacks: 154
- Stone Throwings: 626
- Shooting Attacks: 31
- Stun Grenade Attacks: 1
- Stabbing: 48
- IED Attacks: 42
- Riots Near Jewish Towns: 132
- Assaults: 10
- Arsons: 37
- Tear Gas Attacks: 1
- Firecracker Attacks: 15
- Rocket Barrages: 11
- Sabotage: 6
- Car Bombs: 1
Those attacks resulted in nine killed and hundreds wounded.
As I’ve said before, the Arab-Israeli conflict is a conflict of Arabs putting Israel in a position from which it must defend itself, so that Arabs and their gullible supporters like Hill can complain about the way that Israel defends itself.
One of the most striking, and sad, things I've noticed is the increased amount of checkpoints since I was in Jerusalem a few months ago.

Hill seems not to understand that the checkpoints don’t exist for fun and games, they exist to save lives. Jewish lives. Or don’t those matter?
But don’t forget,
Also a critique of the State of Israel does not, as such, make one anti-Semitic. Are there anti-Semitic critics & critiques? ABSOLUTELY.

Update: Hill also took time out from his busy schedule for a selfie with his “dear friend” Rula Jebreal, who recently accused Saudi General Anwar Eshki of “selling out the Arab cause, the Palestinian cause,” because of his meeting with Dore Gold and his attempts to advance the Arab peace initiative.
