Eric Holder Silent on New Black Panthers’ Racial Discord
Americans must ask themselves whether Eric Holder and black leaders indeed fear the New Black Panther Party, as they all refuse to condemn their rhetoric and tactics in the last few weeks.
The Trayvon Martin Case is the latest in a long list of incidents into which the New Black Panther Party has injected itself, but nothing has measured up to its latest tactics, which include placing a bounty on George Zimmerman’s head with the qualifier “dead or alive.”
It would seems to the most independent of observers that U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, in his refusal to condemn this murder of hire scandal, approves the placement of bounties by private citizens on other private citizens. One would not have to wonder, if this had been a group of Americans connected with the Tea Party Movement offering up a bounty on a private citizen, what the reaction of the Justice Department would be.
This is a hot one to resolve and I am sure Holder would wish it goes away. I am also curious because just before the Martin case I read in a Jewish newspaper how pleased Israel was with the friendly relations developing between Afro-American groups and African Nations and Israel, stating “African American may torn out to be Israel best friends” A re-start of an old friendship Brocken in the-late 60s by CORE and Black Panther party who felt Jewish leadership if civil right claims were always aimed at Jewish interest not basic black needs. “We need jobs not Club Membership”. The Southern Poverty group is working closely with Jewish groups and to a lesser extent so are some members of the original Black Panther Party. The group now working on the Martin case is a new group that separated from the Original Party for obvious reasons. So it is a family squabble between hawks, anti Zionists pro Palestinians groups and money raising “lets get along” groups who appreciate Jewish ability to raise big money like the Monument for M.L.K.
