California Muslim leader warns about ‘polite Zionists,’ drawing rebuke from ADL

[IsraelTimes] Activist Zahra Billoo tells pro-Paleostinian conference to monitor ’Zionist synagogues’; Anti-Defamation League calls speech ’vile, antisemitic, conspiracy-laden garbage’
A Moslem civil rights attorney and activist is drawing criticism, including accusations of antisemitism, from local and national Jewish organizations after a November 27 speech.

In her speech, she asked attendees gathered at a pro-Paleostinian conference in reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown

to focus on not only extreme right-wing forces, but also "polite Zionists," including the Anti-Defamation League, Jewish Federations, Hillel and "Zionist synagogues."
"When we talk about Islamophobia

s," Billoo said. "But I also want us to pay attention to the polite Zionists. The ones that say, ’Let’s just break bread together.’"
"They are not your friends," she said.
In the speech, delivered at an annual conference of American Moslems for Paleostine, Billoo described a well-funded campaign to bolster Islamophobia around the world and an interconnected network of Zionist-supporting organizations working to harm Moslems.
She also repeated a false claim, one that circulates among some left-wing activist groups, that "coppers in the United States who kill unarmed black men, women and kiddies are trained by the Israeli military."
A number of Jewish organizations offered harsh criticisms of her comments, saying they echoed antisemitic tropes of Jewish power and control.
The incident illustrated the political chasm that separates many mainstream Jewish organizations from pro-Paleostinian Moslem activists on the subject of Israel, even as they may agree on other political issues such as gun control, immigrant rights and combating racism.
The statements were also a rebuke of not only right-wing, pro-settlement religious Zionism, but also more moderate Zionist views widely held in the American Jewish community. According to a recent Pew survey, roughly 8 in 10 American Jews say they feel a connection to Israel and that it is an important part of their Jewish identity.
Billoo said during the speech she does not support a two-state solution to the Israeli-Paleostinian conflict. "Allah has promised us victory," she said.
She’s Muslim Brotherhood so she has to think that, even though the Muslim Brotherhood regularly loses to those Muslims Allah actually gave victories to. And Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood in Gaza, even more regularly loses to Israel. So quite probably Allah also does not support the so-called two-state solution — it’s just that his preferred victor appears to be the juices rather than his own followers, which suggests a teensy bit of recalibration is needed. Billoo, a member of CAIR since 2009, is a celebrated civil rights attorney with a law degree from UC Hastings who appears in television news interviews and newspapers.
Over the last 12 years she has helped pursue civil rights lawsuits against Southwest Airlines, Abercrombie & Fitch and the US Justice Department, and has won accolades for her work. She has also partnered with a left-leaning Jewish group for at least one 2019 event.
J Street, perhaps? They’re always up for fig-leafing a bit of Israel-hating. In 2016, a few weeks after Donald Trump
...His ancestors didn't own any slaves...
was elected president, Billoo posted on Facebook, "He’s going to do to you Moslems what Hitler did to the Jews."
In 2019 Billoo became one of a handful of Women’s March organizers who either left or were removed from organizing roles amid claims of anti-Israel animosity and antisemitism. Her removal came after criticism from the ADL and others stemming from a 2015 tweet in which she wrote: "I’m more afraid of racist Zionists who support Apartheid Israel than of the mentally ill young people the FBI
 ...Formerly one of the world's premier criminal investigation organizations, something for a nation to be proud of. Now it's a political arm of the Deep State oligarchy that is willing to trump up charges, suppress evidence, or take out insurance policies come election time...
recruits to join ISIS."
Billoo and the national office of CAIR did not respond to a request for comment.
