Neocons cultivating a new crop of political slaves/war crimes enables/SWCbags/!@#$bags using SWC Hillary? Dees pro-occupation SWCbags community really thinks that war crimes enablers with D-label or black skin would help them avoid criticism of war criminals?
It is a failed strategy looking at example of disgraced DGP (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?433586-Majority-of-Americans-now-believe-Obama-is-quot-dishonest-and-untrustworthy).

Clinton marshals African-American surrogates against BDS to stop pro-Palestinian influence ‘in the public narrative’

Election campaigns serve a lot of purposes, and it is increasingly obvious that Israel supporters on whom Hillary Clinton is dependent are using her campaign to put the knife in Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement. You will recall that Bernie Sanders’ loyalists on the Democratic platform committee (http://mondoweiss.net/2016/06/occupation-platform-beholden/) spoke up for Palestinian rights and even BDS at an early meeting of that body, and Cornel West said the party was “beholden to AIPAC”, the leading Israel lobby group.
West was on to something. Today Jewish Insider (http://us5.campaign-archive1.com/?u=df4304ea8a37a7ef335a5fb1b&id=207d22c418&e=1561407392) reports that an AIPAC board member sees the Clinton campaign as a vehicle to stifle BDS:
Prominent attorney Norm Brownstein told us he was with Hillary Clinton in Denver yesterday where she spoke to him at length about how Israel doesn’t need third party intervention via the U.N. and that she will oppose the BDS movement and any other effort to delegitimize Israel in the international arena.

Brownstein opposed the Iran deal (http://www.denverpost.com/2015/02/27/america-and-israel-must-stand-together/). He is a big financial supporter (http://www.nytimes.com/2004/04/23/us/kerry-releases-a-list-of-his-lobbyist-meetings.html?_r=0) of Democratic political campaigns.
Meantime, a leading advocate for Hillary Clinton in the African-American community, former South Carolina legislator Bakari Sellers, has published a letter urging the Democratic Party to stick by its 2012 platform language on Israel and Palestine — no reference to occupation or settlements, and Jerusalem is forever the capital of the Jewish state, etc.– and to oppose BDS. The letter is reportedly co-signed by 60 black Democrats. We’re waiting for the list.
