Sometimes seemingly strange bedfellows aren’t actually that strange at all.
As Twitchy told you, last week, Dr. Marc Lamont Hill took to Twitter to defend himself from charges of anti-Semitism following anti-Semitic remarks he made at a U.N. event:
I support Palestinian freedom. I support Palestinian self-determination. I am deeply critical of Israeli policy and practice.
I do not support anti-Semitism, killing Jewish people, or any of the other things attributed to my speech. I have spent my life fighting these things.

Fortunately for Hill, despite losing his plum CNN commentator gig, he can at least rest easy knowing that he’s got an intellectual ally in David Duke:
Might disagree with Marc Lamont Hill on much, but no decent person can disagree for his beliefs on Israel. .Israel was created by horrific human rights crimes – forced ethnic cleansing by terrorism because the Zionists wanted a "Jewish State!" Free Palestine & Free the USA too! https://t.co/lSuV1HEuNP

Who’d’a thunk? Duke’s willing to put his own racism aside for the greater good: hating the Jews.
gotta feel good when david Duke supports your ideology!

David Duke: "I might disagree with MLH on much, like him having the right to live in the US, vote, marry outside his race or just talk back to me, but damn that uppity slave has a good point when it comes to cleansing the world of Jews!"

Nice when two bigots from ostensibly opposite sides can find common ground where it counts.

Cue “Kumbaya.”

David Duke sums up why the radical left's antisemitism is no different from the radical right's antisemitism – they want Jews out of Israel, and out of their countries simultaneously. Can imagine David Duke having tea with MLH over this.

this is the political venn diagram for evil, where these two overlap
