Linda Sarsour, one of the chief organizers of this past weekend’s Women’s March, has come under scrutiny not just for her history of controversial statements (including, but not limited to, arguing that Sharia law is good because it prohibits interest on loans) but for associating with some unsavory figures. Chief among these individuals is Salah Sarsour, who is part of the Islamic Society of Milwaukee as well as a former Hamas member once imprisoned in Israel for his activities with the group. Despite this, Ms. Sarsour so no issue with taking a picture with him at a Muslim convention:
“Salah Sarsour, who is also a board member of American Muslims for Palestine, served as a bodyguard of sorts at the convention for Sumeyye Erdogan Bayraktar, the daughter of Turkey’s president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
“While it is unclear if Salah and Linda are related (though they share the same surname, she has suggested in the past on social media that they are not and did not respond to requests for comment), she has other family ties to alleged Hamas operatives. Though she avoids discussing it now, Sarsour has acknowledged in past interviews that she has cousins serving prison time in Israel because of their work for Hamas.
Sarsour has denied having any contact with the terror group. She told The New York Times in 2012 that she would not have been appointed an Obama “Champion of Change” if she had.
The activist has risen to national attention recently. She served as a delegate to the Democratic National Convention, and she is one of four lead organizers for the Women’s March.”
That awkward moment when you realize the organizer of the #WomensMarch is pro Sharia Law, the very opposite of women's rights. #AddHerName pic.twitter.com/r3AZywd9oA
