Organization Funded By Broward County Government And Visit Lauderdale Co-Hosts Political Event With Pro-Hamas Socialist Group

A local organization sponsored by the Broward County Government Cultural Division and the Visit Lauderdale tourism board co-hosted a left-wing political event with a pro-Hamas socialist organization on Saturday. Destination Sistrunk and Broward Democratic Socialists Of America (DSA) hosted the “Reading Aloud” event in Fort Lauderdale. One day later, the Broward DSA and its members joined a large pro-Palestine march in downtown Fort Lauderdale. The event came three weeks after Hamas massacred nearly 2,000 Israeli men, women and children.

In the days following the Hamas attacks, the Broward County Commission unanimously passed a resolution supporting Israel. However, the Democratic Socialists of America and other far-left groups spoke out against Israel. Even some longtime DSA members were shocked by the group’s pro-Hamas sentiments.

Michigan Congressman Shri Thanedar “officially renounced his DSA membership, saying in a statement Wednesday that he won’t ‘associate with an organization unwilling to call out terrorism in all its forms.’” Even far-left New York Congressman Jamaal Bowman left the DSA.

The New York DSA was forced to back off it’s support Hamas. According to POLITICO, the NY DSA “noted it didn’t organize or sponsor the rally, which was not attended by any elected officials.”

On the same day Hamas launched attacks on innocent Israelis, the Broward DSA urged supporters to attend a pro-Palestine rally the next day. That rally lead to violent encounters between pro Hamas and pro-Israel supporters in the middle of Sunrise Boulevard.

Over the last three weeks, the Broward DSA and fellow Reading Aloud hosts, Broward Dream Defenders, have repeatedly posted pro-Hamas rally information along with socialist propaganda.

Nearly every pro-Palestine rally promoted by these socialists features protestors chanting the now-familiar “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.”

Earlier this month, Broward County Commissioner Steve Geller addressed this chant.

“We have a lot of people who frequently talk about or they chant the slogan, from the mountains to the sea, Palestine will be free,” Geller continued. “If you unpack that mountains to the ocean, that they’re describing the State of Israel when they are chanting that they’re actually calling for the destruction of the State of Israel.”

Why is an organization sponsored by Broward County Government and Visit Lauderdale hosting any event with these types of groups?

Why are tax dollars and tourist dollars being used to host political events in Broward County?

Why is any organization sponsored by Broward County Government and Visit Lauderdale associated with a group supporting calls for “intifada” in Florida?

Broward Socialists: Anarchists, Good. Joe Biden, Bad.

Think the radicals and socialists are voting for Joe Biden this November? Think again. The Broward Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) are not happy with “Sleepy Joe” for remarks he made today in Delaware. While he seemed uninformed about the cause of the rioting in Portland, Joe Biden drew a distinction between protestors and those setting fires at the Federal Courthouse in Portland.

Biden said, “[T]here is no place for violence and destruction of property. Peaceful protestors should be protected and arsonists and anarchists should be prosecuted.”

Well, such common sense did not play well with the Broward DSA.

On Twitter, the Broward DSA let its hammer and sickle flag fly. They wrote:

Calling for anarchists to be prosecuted is unacceptable. Anarchists have been unfairly persecuted for over 100 years in this country, and it is extremely concerning that both major candidates for the presidency want to lock them up. Many anarchists are not violent, and instead are committed to building a better world through mutual aid, social justice, and more. Anarchism is not an inherently dangerous ideology, unlike fascism or white supremacy. Why doesn’t Joe Biden call for them to be prosecuted?

So what, you say? Who cares what a few fringe socialists think about Joe Biden?

When they’re not defending anarchists attacking Federal agents and reading books by Stalin and Mao, the Broward DSA is part of the organizers behind the Black Lives Matter protests in South Florida.

Last month, REDBROWARD revealed the Broward DSA, Broward Black Lives Matter and the Broward Dream Defenders formed the Black Lives Matter Alliance Broward. The alliance has organized numerous protests since 2016 across Broward. Jasmen Roger-Shaw, a candidate for the Florida House of Representatives, is one of the leaders of the Alliance. The groups have endorsed radical candidates such as Broward State Attorney candidate Joe Kimok. Alliance members teamed with Broward Democrats to host Zoom forums featuring leading candidates from both parties.

Did none of the candidates for State Attorney or Sheriff bother to research these groups?

Do these candidates know a major component of this alliance has no problem with anarchists roaming the streets of Broward?

Well, they do now.
