Rasha Al Aqeedi was referring to the latest blunder by Sanders’ apparently pro-Pakistan handlers.

On the eve of Super Tuesday Two in the crucial state of Michigan, Team Sanders got an endorsement from Islamic cleric Imam Qazwimi, who told a large Muslim gathering to vote for Sanders: “This is our chance to elect a president … who defends Muslims and Arabs… Therefore, I encourage you to vote for Bernie Sanders because he represents the values that we all [Muslims] believe in.”

Of course, that same cleric has had some nasty things to say about Jews and how they were responsible for the creation of ISIS. Two days later the Sanders team distanced themselves, but only after millions were able to share the endorsement.
