Does Hillary Clinton have a bigotry problem?
Her icy view of American Jews is becoming an issue again, after she named to her leadership team former Congressman Earl Hilliard, who blamed his re-election loss on a supposed Jewish conspiracy to control money and the media.
“The only thing I know for sure, that I saw in black and white, is $1,098,000 that [Davis] reported. You can’t take money from corporations, so that came from Jews and Republicans. There’s no question where that money came from,” he claimed in a July 16, 2002 interview with “Black Commentator” magazine.
Hilliard also claimed Jews control the media and were out to get him.
“Remember, the Jewish media. They started putting word out, they wanted everybody to know, because … obviously they felt that the money they had, that they put in, that they were going to beat me,” he said.
Hillary’s leadership team member then claimed Jews were plotting to control all blacks, and only a “conflict” will stop them.
“There is a group out there that wants to dominate us. They want us to do what they want us to do … and to Hell with our agenda if there is a conflict,” he said.
Hilliard expanded on his Jewish conspiracy theories in an interview with the Associated Press, where he promised “retribution” against Jews.
“I see a future with a great deal of conflict between African-Americans and Jews in this country,” said Hilliard. “It’s going to get worse before it gets better. I don’t think African-Americans are going to sit back and let this continue. There will be retribution.”
Given Hillary’s belief in collective guilt, will she apologize for her anti-Semitism by association?
