On Sunday’s Velshi show, Velshi led a discussion claiming there was a racial double standard that made law enforcement act less aggressively against white Donald Trump supporters who attacked the Capitol than against Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and al Qaeda.
Panelist and UK import Mehdi Hasan was the worst.
The opposite is true, but this is what the gaslighting left does.
Mehdi drew some false equivalence, demonizing white Christian men in the process. Mehdi is a racist.
Insofar as I know, no one on the 6th chopped any heads off, flew planes into buildings, or planted IEDs on the road.
To him, Al Qaeda’s problem is they’re not white and have beards(actually, a lot of the fringe people who rioted had beards):
And the number 1 reason why Al Qaeda was not as much a danger as these #MAGAterrorists are is because… Al Qaeda wasn’t white. We take the threat from brown men with big beards much more seriously than the threat from white guys. Hence the Capitol attack.pic.twitter.com/wwL185HVuM

He is suggesting that those fringe lunatics in the Capitol were Republicans and invited by Republicans. There were hundreds of thousands of normal, ordinary Americans at that rally, and a relatively small number of violent anarchist Trump supporters tearing up the Capitol.
He wants to put Republican members of Congress in jail, painting their support of a rally as terrorism.
“A mainstream Republican group used its resources to get the President’s supporters to a rally that… wanted to overturn the [election] results.”

Yes, they are just that clueless to stand up for AQ or they just don’t care anymore as they move quickly to burn it all down by any means necessary.

Yes Medhi Hassan is a racist. How dare he compare American citizens to To the AL. QADEA that flew planes into the world Trade center. THIS IS SO OUT OF LINE!
