Hate Crime Task Force Member Suspended by Maryland AG

Democrat Maryland Attorney General Anthony Brown has decided to suspend a member of his hate crime task force.

Zainab Chaudry, an anti-Israel activist who serves as the director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations’ (CAIR) Maryland office as well as the AG’s task force, made some rather disturbing comments about the Israel-Hamas war.

So, Chaudry has been suspended from the task force.

Can’t Say That

Chaudry had several posts that were noted in the report, but the most outrageous was one that claimed the massacred children in Israel were fake.

The post stated, “I will never be able to understand how the world summoned up rage for 40 fake Israeli babies while completely turning a blind eye to 3,000 real Palestinian babies.”

As a result of these postings, Chaudry has been temporarily suspended from the task force.

Attorney General Brown stated, “The Office of Attorney General learned last week about personal social media posts of a member of the Maryland Commission on Hate Crimes Response and Prevention, Zainab Chaudry, Executive Director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations – Maryland Office.

“Attorney General Brown has determined that Ms. Chaudry’s social media posts risk disrupting the work and mission of the Commission, so he is announcing steps that he took today to ensure that the vital work and mission of the Commission can continue without interruption.”

What continues to baffle me is that Democrats maintain that Palestinian supporters do not hate Israel, but we continue to see posts like this and comments from people associated with CAIR that are, for lack of a better word, disgusting.

What is even more disturbing is the fact that these people are not being permanently removed from their posts.

How can anyone justify allowing someone who made such a horrific comment to be a member of a hate-crime task force when she is clearly spreading hate herself?

We all know how these headlines would be reading if a Republican had someone who made comments like this, so why do Democrats continue to get a free ride with the growing anti-Semitism that is raging out of control against Jewish people today?
