Former Congresswoman, police officer assailant, Cornell scholar, and generally psychotic raving , Cynthia McKinney:
From news article: “I want to say categorically and very clearly that these policies of war … are not what the people of the United States stand for, and it’s not what African-Americans stand for,” McKinney said. “To all of the people of Libya, who are suffering, as a result of the conflict that has broken out between the NATO countries and Libya, I come here with a heavy heart. . . . The government of the United States fails to represent the interests of the American people now.” McKinney claimed that some of the criticism of the Qaddafi regime was simply “propaganda,” and that the U.S. regularly uses these tactics to mislead black Americans. “When we initially heard the assertion or the allegation that the Libyan government had employed black mercenaries, it sounded exactly like the propaganda that we blacks in the United States are so accustomed to,” McKinney said. The former congresswoman was also on the Iranian state-owned Press TV yesterday, where she claimed that U.S. lawmakers are forced to support Israel, because if they do not then they won’t be given money to run a campaign. “Every candidate for Congress at that time had a pledge. They were given a pledge to sign … that had Jerusalem as the capital city,” McKinney said in an interview with Press TV on Sunday. “You make a commitment that you would vote to support the military superiority of Israel that the economic assistant that Israel wants that you would vote to provide that.” If the candidate refuses to sign the pledge, “then you do not get money to run your campaign,” she added McKinney. |
