(53,955 posts)Yeah, I learned that today on DU. He wasn't on the link provided from the Ron Paul chat group, and he wasn't on the list from the other hate site, but apparently, The Information Underground site (listed under:
Zionist Crime Evidence and "Jewish" Influence/Power »Zionist Influence/Power » Members of the US Government with Dual Citizenship) has a huge list of dual American-Israeli citizens and Sanders is listed. Al Franken too!
Of course, it isn't true, but for anyone thinking this won't crop up again...well, you are in for a big shock!

(88 posts)Ron Paul's "anti-war" stance isn't anti-war, it's anti-Jew (Re: Ron Paul's white supremacy: 2007):
"The dark side of the 'Paul Phenomenon'"
"The skins' reasons for opposing the war are, in fact, wholly different from those of the much larger antiwar left, who are opposed largely on humanitarian grounds; the far right, however, opposes the war because it's perceived to be fought on behalf of Israel and the Jews -- which is why, when you hear them talk about "neocons", you know that they are in fact using it as a code word for "Jew." So the association, such as it is (it seems largely to occur at Paul events) is purely coincidental, accidental, a nonsequitur, and largely irrelevant (though it hopefully gives antiwar liberals pause about the way they talk about Israeli influence in the matter)."

We have Libertarian Glenn Greenwald and his "progressive" Netroots cohorts to thank for insisting we provide a platform with international reach for Ron Paul's neo-fascism:
