(Free Beacon) Voters in Dearborn, Mich., a Muslim-American stronghold outside Detroit, have elected a former Bernie Sanders surrogate who defends the terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah to serve on the city’s school board.
Amer Zahr, a Dearborn-based activist, has urged Muslims to “stand with” Hamas and Hezbollah and to stop “condemning anti-Semitism.” In September, he lamented Israel’s assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. “No living Arab leader was more respected among the masses. And Israel murdered him,” Zahr said of Nasrallah, who U.S. officials have linked to thousands of American deaths.
Now, Zahr will serve on Dearborn’s seven-member school board, which oversees 20,000 students in the Detroit suburb, home to the largest Arab and Muslim population in the country.
