Even anti-Israel leftists are starting to want "Queers Against Israeli Apartheid" out of Pride

From Borderless News and Views:

Queers Against Israeli Apartheid
``a disfiguring blot on Pride’s otherwise
 cheerful face

...The Pride Week festivities draw friendly hordes, building a commercial buzz that leaves marketers weak kneed, and a community having lots of fun, with no pretensions.
It is here the QuAIA make their loud, intolerant annual entrance, a disfiguring blot on Pride’s otherwise cheerful face. These are the self-styled advocates of Palestinian independence, where Israel is demonized for innumerable sins, with ‘moral inferiority’ number 1 with a bullet. Free speech is mother’s milk for this scribe, and if a bunch of ill-informed clowns want to paint swastikas on banners and proclaim their solidarity against Zionist oppression – fill yer boots. But why Pride Week, and insufferable anti-intellectual arrogance of the rightness of the cause, to deliberately spike a celebratory punchbowl with bilgewater… where fun, tolerance for other views, and a liberal, diverse society that respects all is the overarching theme everyone else adores?

Excellent column from start to finish. And he is right in talking about how far the movement has come. To now where a lesbian becomes premier and no one really cares about her being a lesbian. We barely even notice. Politicians now not only want to be seen at the parade but have to.

QuAIA is trying to turn Pride into something it is not. They are a Trojan horse trying to hijack the pride movement for their own agenda. Would not be shocked if you traced their backers to Tehran.

The more visible QuAIA becomes the more people in the gay communities will see QuAIA for what they really are. The sheep's clothing will start to tear away exposing the wolf inside.
