Yes, we all take dumb and inadvisable political positions in our college years.
There’s a difference between inadvisable and indefensible, though — and during her time at the University of California at Berkeley in 2002, the incoming Joe Biden deputy director of the White House Office of Legislative Affairs found herself on the wrong side of that fence.
The would-be staffer, Reema Dodin, a Palestinian-American, is best known for her work with Illinois Democrat Sen. Dick Durbin, having served as his deputy chief of staff and floor director since 2011.
According to USA Today, the pick was made in part to help Biden negotiate with Congress.
That Dodin was a Palestinian activist is unremarkable. However, the first thing worth noting is that her time at Berkeley coincided with the second Palestinian intifada, the 2000 to 2005 period in which over 1,000 Israelis were killed and terror attacks became a facet of daily life in the Jewish state — not exactly the most defensible period in Palestinian history.
Halie Soifer, executive director of the Jewish Democratic Council of America, tweeted that “Reema Dodin is a tireless public servant who will work to restore the soul of our nation in the Biden White House.
So, they are all on the wrong side of the fence. The right side are good guys without balls to fight for their president that has fought for us the past four year. Prove the corruption and keep Trump in office now.
