Some individual chapters went further in their \u2062show of support for Hamas. BLM \u2064Chicago shared\u2062 a celebratory graphic of a paraglider in obvious\u200c reference to the slaughtering of at least 260\u2064 civilians \u200dby Hamas militants at an Israeli music festival. Such statements are nothing\u200c new for BLM, \u2062a \u201cmovement committed to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/your-black-lives-matter-donation-may-have-helped-hamas\/\" title=\"Your donation to Black Lives Matter may have supported Hamas.\">ending settler \u200bcolonialism<\/a> in all forms\u201d that advocates for \u2062\u201cPalestinian liberation.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Corporate Support for Palestinian \u200bOrganizations<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Many Americans are aware that both the Obama and Biden administrations\u2064 sent hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to Hamas and its benefactors.<\/li>\n<li>A \u200ccomparatively smaller number are aware that public companies donate to Palestinian organizations and their allies such as Black Lives Matter (BLM).<\/li>\n<li>Both are wealth transfers \u200dthat drain resources from \u2063our economy to enable Palestinian barbarism like that unleashed on Israelis this past\u200c Saturday.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-2-long d-flex justify-content-center\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center; \" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-899164849\">\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-1379703300879-0\" class=\"mb-30\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-7a5cfb4f34f92983f7934c759f008e05 fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-2\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-7a5cfb4f34f92983f7934c759f008e05\"><\/div>\n<h3>BLM&#8217;s Financial Impact<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Recall\u200c that corporations gave \u2063more than $99 billion to the BLM movement and related causes after the death\u200b of George Floyd.<\/li>\n<li>This wealth transfer included at least\u200c $122 million in funding for BLM \u2064itself.<\/li>\n<li>Some of that\u200b money undoubtedly went to Hamas.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Some Americans, such as the\u200c <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/graham-if-democrats-call-witnesses-at-trial-we-will-call-democrats-thatve-used-inflammatory-language\/\" title=\"Graham: If Democrats Call Witnesses At Trial We Will Call Democrats That\u2019ve Used Inflammatory Language\">sitting vice president<\/a>, consciously support\u2064 proponents of decolonization. Others only support them involuntarily or unconsciously, partly out of ignorance but largely because the administrative state \u2064and corporate America are \u200dnot accountable to the American people.<\/p>\n<h3>BLM&#8217;s Connection to Palestinian Organizations<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>In addition to its direct support \u2062of Palestinian groups, BLM works closely \u2063with numerous domestic, left-wing, pro-Palestinian \u200corganizations such as Students for Justice in\u200c Palestine and members of\u2062 the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement.<\/li>\n<li>Activists belonging to these organizations\u2062 celebrated Hamas\u2019 most\u200b recent atrocities across the West, including in America\u2019s streets and on America\u2019s college campuses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>BLM At School, the PreK-12 \u2062educational arm of the BLM\u200b movement, devotes an\u2062 entire block of its curriculum to \u201cBlack + Palestinian Solidarity.\u201d The curriculum equates \u201cIsraeli settler colonialism\u201d to \u201canti-Black \u200cviolence\u201d and calls for \u201cunified action against anti-Blackness, white supremacy, and Zionism.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>The Need for Accountability<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Thanks to\u2062 corporate America and the left, Americans unwittingly have blood on their hands.<\/li>\n<li>Reforms are needed to reign in\u2062 corporate philanthropy and\u2062 subject corporations to public scrutiny.<\/li>\n<li>For\u2064 now, the public should shame and punish the unrepentant corporations that redistributed their wealth to BLM and its allies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">\n<\/div>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> What are the \u2063implications of corporate support for Palestinian organizations, including BLM?<\/h2>\n<p><span> <\/p>\n<p>The\u2062 recent show\u2063 of support by Black Lives Matter (BLM) for the Palestinian people \u2064has sparked controversy and raised questions about corporate support for Palestinian organizations. \u200bOn October 9, BLM Grassroots, a collection of BLM chapters \u2064responsible \u200cfor much of the movement&#8217;s heavy \u2062lifting, released a statement that likens Palestinian terrorism to \u200dBLM&#8217;s own activism. Some individual chapters even showed support for Hamas, a known militant group.<\/p>\n<p>BLM Chicago, for example, shared a graphic celebrating the \u200cslaughtering of at least 260 civilians by \u2062Hamas militants at an Israeli music\u200c festival. These statements are not\u200c out of \u200dcharacter for BLM, as the \u2063movement is \u200dcommitted to ending\u2062 settler colonialism in all \u2062forms and advocates for Palestinian liberation.<\/p>\n<p>What may come as\u2062 a surprise to many Americans is the corporate support for Palestinian organizations,\u2062 including BLM. While \u2062it is widely known that \u200cboth the Obama and Biden administrations sent\u2063 hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to Hamas and its benefactors, fewer people are aware\u2062 that\u200c public companies also \u200bdonate to these organizations.<\/p>\n<p>These\u2062 donations can\u2062 be seen\u200b as wealth transfers that drain resources from our economy and enable Palestinian barbarism, as witnessed in the recent attacks on Israelis. \u2063It raises questions about the responsibility of corporations in supporting organizations that promote violence and terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that supporting\u2063 the Palestinian cause, advocating for their rights, and seeking \u200bjustice for them does not\u2064 necessarily mean endorsing or justifying acts of terrorism. However,\u200d the support\u2062 shown by some BLM chapters for Hamas \u200braises concerns about the alignment of the movement and its \u200bassociations \u2063with\u200d extremist\u200b organizations.<\/p>\n<p>Public companies involved in \u200cthese donations should \u200cbe held accountable\u2064 for \u2064their actions. While supporting social\u200d justice causes is commendable, it is crucial to ensure that the \u2062funds donated are\u200b used for peaceful purposes and\u200c do not contribute to violence and unrest.<\/p>\n<p>There is a fine line between <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/student-suspended-from-education-program-for-saying-a-man-is-a-man-a-woman-is-a-woman\/\" title=\"Student Suspended From Education Program For Saying, \u2018A Man Is A Man, A Woman Is A Woman\u2019\">promoting social justice<\/a> and \u2062supporting organizations that perpetrate violence. It is\u200b important\u2062 for the public to \u200cbe aware \u200cof\u2063 where their support is going and to question the intentions and \u2063associations \u2062of the movements they align themselves with.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, it is essential for BLM Grassroots and its affiliated chapters to clarify their position on terrorism and dissociate themselves from extremist\u200b groups like Hamas. By doing so, they can demonstrate their \u200dcommitment to non-violent activism and preserve the integrity of their\u2064 cause.<\/p>\n<p>The controversy sparked by BLM&#8217;s support\u2062 for\u200c Palestinians highlights the need for transparency, \u2064accountability,\u200c and critical evaluation of\u200d the associations and actions of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/minnesotas-new-social-studies-curriculum-would-racialize-first-graders-teach-high-schoolers-about-the-evils-of-whiteness-capitalism-and-christianity\/\" title=\"Minnesota\u2019s New Social Studies Curriculum Would Racialize First-Graders, Teach High Schoolers About The Evils Of \u2018Whiteness, Capitalism, And Christianity\u2019\">social justice movements<\/a>. While the struggle for equal rights and \u200bjustice is \u2062an important\u2064 and\u2064 noble\u200b cause, it must be pursued in a \u2064way \u2062that upholds peace and condemns violence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>statement on social media expressing solidarity with the Palestinian people and condemning Israeli violence.
