Revealed: Joe Sestak’s Anti-Israeli History

by Stephan Tawney on May 26, 2010

Congressman Joe Sestak (D-PA) is running for United States Senate from Pennsylvania. In fact, he recently defeated Senator Arlen Specter for the Democratic nomination. But what do we know of Sestak’s stance on Israel? Apparently very little. Until now.

In 2007, Joe Sestak hosted a fundraiser for the anti-Israeli group Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). CAIR compares Israel to Nazi Germany and broadly refuses to condemn Islamic-inspired terrorism. The organization has been alleged by members of Congress to have ties to terror group Hamas.

Sestak has also been endorsed by J Street, which purports to be an advocacy group pushing for a peaceful resolution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. In reality, the organization has a history of opposing Israel’s right to defend itself from terrorism, and it supports a biased UN report accusing Israel of committing war crimes.

More recently, a letter was passed around Congress “rebuking the Obama Administration for its confrontational stance toward Israel”. The letter was signed by Democrats and Republicans alike. In fact, 333 members put their names on the rebuke. Joe Sestak refused to sign the letter supporting Israel.

Call Congressman Sestak. Ask him why he supports groups, and is supported by groups, that oppose Israel. And maybe ask him why he refuses to stand by the Jewish State against attacks from the Obama Administration. (202) 225-2011.

    I thought that he was an antisemite, but now I have evidence that he is

    Log live Sestak. Keep fighting the Israeli influence on America. Israeli values are just the opposite of American values. The pro-Isreali elements in America are traitors who sacrifice the American interest over Israel. For example, the Iraq War was a proxy war for Israel which killed 5,000 Americans and took $1 trillion.
