The Crucifixion of Cynthia McKinney

Denmark Vesey comments on the manner in which former Georgia Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney was run out of office–twice.

“Is it something I said? Well, yes Cynthia. It is something you said. You spoke the truth. You broke the biggest taboo in America - you addressed the obvious connection between faked evidence for war, US Foreign Policy not in America’s interest, and the out of control Israeli Lobby.”

“Consequently you have become the target of overtly racist slander and the victim of illegal campaign tactics designed to drive you from office.”

“Sadly, more African Americans rallied to the defense of the strippers in the Duke case, who lied about being raped, than they did to the side of this brave US Congresswoman who stood virtually alone against the pro-War / pro-Israel lobby.”
