Linda Sarsour

Here is a mid-July piece, in the online Jewish-oriented publication Tablet, about Linda Sarsour, the Palestinian-American activist (and one of the organizers/leaders of the Women's March). The piece was occasioned by Sarsour's diatribe (absurd and offensive) against the CNN journalist Jake Tapper. The Tablet piece is by Yair Rosenberg, a senior editor at the publication.

Sarsour gets a good deal of acclaim (often from the left); I am sorry to say that the acclaim, too often, is not merited.
