Wow: This video of Marc Lamont Hill calling for 'a free Palestine from the river to the sea' does not look good

It was just a couple of weeks ago that Hamas launched some 500 rockets and mortar shells into Israel over the course of two days, which is something to keep in mind when CNN commentator Marc Lamont Hill says, “We must recognize the right of an occupied people to defend themselves. We must prioritize peace, but we must not romanticize or fetishize it.”

“We must promote nonviolence at every opportunity, but we cannot endorse a narrow politics of respectability that shames Palestinians for resisting, for refusing to do nothing in the face of state violence and ethnic cleansing,” he added.

I didn't get a reply from a CNN spokesman for comment on this one. Again, he said, "We must prioritize peace, but we must not romanticize or fetishize it." These are stunning comments in defense of people who have employed acts of terrorism against Israel. https://t.co/hDqmpTdSIG

As Twitchy reported, Hill made the remarks at a U.N. event marking the “International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People.” He also said that “justice requires a free Palestine from the river to the sea,” a rallying cry of Hamas. Here’s the video:

Marc Lamont Hill is a university professor and a CNN pundit, not some reddit troll.

Mainstream genocidal anti-Semitism. Yesterday CNN reported on the results of its anti-Semitism poll. The call is coming from inside the house.

Good news is thanks to the free market, you don't have to watch CNN's resident Jew-hater *explicitly* call for violence against Jews.

You could always flip to MSNBC and watch Al Sharpton.

Anyhoo this is fine, right

I’ve never been naive about anti-Semitism in America, but honestly never thought I’d see a mainstream CNN guy and professor, on camera, shout “free Palestine from the river to the sea” at the UN, to thunderous applause, and see a collective shrug from even non-socialist liberals.

Seriously what the hell is wrong with you guys? This isn’t a dog whistle, this is basically “the Jews will not replace us!” I get that it sucks to see ppl on your side of the aisle turn out to be despicable anti-Semites, but get the hell out of your chair you complacent cowards.

So, no comment from CNN yet? Their PR guy wouldn’t shut up the other day about Chris Wallace working for “state TV.”

But Seth, maybe he just meant to safely move Jews somewhere? Maybe put them in some camps and then relocate them to Madagascar?

He sat down with farrakhan and said it was just an innocent conversation

Uh oh, Farrakhan 2.0

— Daniel morales (@Dansteph15) November 28, 2018

I for one am shocked that the CNN pundit who palled around with Louis Farrakhan has, ah, *issues* with Israel.

I’m sure it’s just carefully considered Anti-Zionism, though. https://t.co/Jtr2tSVp6P

Hook up Marc Lamont Hill with @zackbeauchamp to build a bridge from the river to the sea.

This guy has been making my skin crawl for years

— See Grean (@See_Grean) November 28, 2018

Yep. NOT fake news. Real documented reality in living color and unmistakable audio. This is the next level below Farrakan-level anti-Semitism.

Repercussions?

Nah, lol.

Yep, seeing nothing from either one of these bastions of @CNN journalism.

— Jay Dubb (@MidasRex1998) November 29, 2018

@CNN must fire this guy immediately. Not in awhile, not express some concern, but fire him *immediately*.

— Jay Dubb (@MidasRex1998) November 29, 2018

Hey @brianstelter you good with this person representing your network? Anything tonight on @AC360, @jaketapper, @donlemon condemning this dangerous anti-semitic bigotry?

— Michael Watson (@watsonmd) November 28, 2018

I will never understand why this is tolerated. MSM fights like hell for people to storm our borders but they don’t bat an eye at genocide.

It’s telling that a CNN personality can call for the annihilation of Israel and CNN feels no motivation to comment in the least.

@CNN your thoughts?
