Investing in Apartheid: 6.8 MILLION U.S. TAX DOLLARS A DAY with Cynthia McKinney Part 1

About the Speaker:

Cynthia McKinney is a former US Representative, and was the 2008 Green Party nominee for President of the United States. In 2004, McKinney was awarded the 5th annual Backbone Award for her willingness to openly criticize and question the Bush administration and call for an investigation into the 9/11 attacks. On December 30, 2008, McKinney was on a humanitarian mission by the Free Gaza Movement aboard the Dignity ship, when the ship was rammed by the Israeli Navy. Barred from reaching Gaza and forced to dock in Lebanon, the ship, sailing in international waters, carried physicians, medical supplies and activists.

About the Event:

We as Americans directly contribute to the blood thats shed in Palestine. As the United States government funds the weapons which Israel uses in its attacks, it is our tax dollars which constitute these funds. Whats more, Israel is the largest recipient of foreign aid from the US, which promotes the building of further illegal settlements on Palestinian land. McKinney will discuss the little-known details of just how big a role America plays in bolstering the Israeli occupation of Palestine.

King made a big mistake then.

Look at the casualties of the people of Gaza and then look at the Israeli casualties? Now who was the agressor? It is easy to figure out.

Ya Anita If I Launched 10 thousand rockets into florida for 8 years I would also Expect The US army to do something about it.

Hamas Provokes Israel to war And then cries about it all over the UN and the Internets. they tell you that if u believe otherwise " THE EVIL ZIONIST WIZARDS" are feeding you propaganda. My cousin is a Lebanese Jew whos family was forced to leave to Israel by Foreign Syrian Muslims, where is our right to return where is our freedom, Muslimarabs dont own the middle east

Martin Luther King said that people who are anti-Zionist are also anti-Semtic. We should listen to his words and call for a halt to the rocketing of Jewish civilians by people from Gaza (A group supported by these individuals in this video). King was right and these people are wrong.
