An associate professor at the University of California Santa Barbara claimed during a recent speech that the Israeli Defense Forces fighting Hamas terrorists is akin to police officers “murdering” George Floyd. He called Israel a “white supremacist Zionist project” and issued a chilling call to action; American progressives must kill the Jewish nation.
Bilal Ware, also known as “Butch,” who teaches African studies in the university’s history department, made the controversial comments on Tuesday at a Santa Barbara mosque where he gave a discussion titled, “Sunnah of Struggle – Black and Palestinian Liberation from Islamic Perspective.”
Ware called on progressives to stand united in the liberation of Palestinians, claiming that they are being held captive under a Zionist oppressive regime, and compared the situation to police brutality in America. He referred to Israel as “the beast” and said the nation needs to be “stabbed in the heart.”
“When Big Floyd got choked out, I saw something that I had also never seen. I had never seen protests against police brutality and the carceral state, wherein black folks were outnumbered by white folks five to one. That is a massive change and it’s a massive transformation…They are running scared,” Ware said, according to video.
Ware told the audience that the public support for Palestine has “dramatically shifted” in the past ten years and will continue down that route as the world comes together to defeat “Zionist white supremacy.”
