New in PJ Media:
The Nation, a magazine that was founded just after the end of the Civil War but is now farther to the left than Stalin, proudly features Mohammed El-Kurd as its “first-ever Palestine Correspondent.” Apparently El-Kurd took that to mean “Hamas correspondent,” as he just declared, in a chilling glimpse of what the left has in store for us, “We must normalize massacres as the status quo.”
El-Kurd said this Saturday at a pro-Palestinian rally in London and was initially defiant when he started getting negative feedback. He wrote on X: “Lots of ppl reporting this speech to the police. Idgaf. Zionism is indefensible” and “are you gonna arrest me?” Just in case you’re unfamiliar with his moronic argot, “ppl” is “people” and “Idgaf” is “I don’t give a f**k.”
When it became clear, however, that getting arrested by London’s Metropolitan Police was a real possibility, El-Kurd abruptly changed his tune, claiming that what he really said, or meant to say, was “We must not normalize massacres as the status quo.” He attached to his X post what was purportedly an image of his prepared text, where it did indeed say “We must not normalize massacres,” but of course, there was no way to tell whether or not this was really the text he had been using when he spoke and if that was what he meant to say.
Even the available video of his remarks now carries subtitles, despite the fact that he was speaking perfectly clearly and in English, and the subtitles say, “We must not normalize massacres as the status quo” even as he is undeniably saying “We must normalize massacres as the status quo.”
In full damage control mode, El-Kurd also wrote on Saturday, “Obviously not an idiot and would never say that. I was clearly saying we shouldn’t be complacent, we shouldn’t normalize massacres. Willfully distorting my words is an indication of your own bankruptcy. I’m allowed to misspeak. Also: idgaf. Call the police! Write a Yelp review!”
Sure, he is allowed to misspeak. But whether or not he was really doing so is another matter. There are numerous reasons to suspect that he said exactly what he wanted to say. Foremost is the fact that the call to normalize massacres came at the end of El-Kurd’s speech. After he said it, he paused for a few moments, and then said, “Thank you.”
If he was not drunk or drugged and was paying even cursory attention to what he was saying, he would almost certainly have noticed the gaffe, if that was what it was, and corrected it. Virtually all public speakers can tell stories about saying something they didn’t mean to say and immediately correcting themselves. But Mohammed El-Kurd just let his fateful words hang there.
There is more. Read the rest here.

This mudslime had what is sometimes referred to as a “Freudian slip” where his mouth betrays what the brain is really thinking.
Then of course he hits the BS as a means of covering his barbaric arse.
somehistory says
the creep claimed he “misspoke” but also that others *changed* what he had said.
Contradictory arguments.
He’s a liar….and every thinking person who has read what he said, or heard him say it and then complain about people changing what he said after he *misspoke*….knows the lie when they hear it.
He said what he meant….he wants to make such massacres read like the *dog bites man* or “my dog ate my homework.” In other words, an everyday thing.

“He’s a liar…”
Yes, sometimes it’s that simple.

People in all walks of life from Presidents on down, do the mis-spoke trick. Having sid what is reallin thier minds they walk it back as the stupid saying goes, to make it seem they did not mean it. The massacres are coming I am sure but it will be the Moose limbs on the receiving end when their antics go beyond the patuence of the tolerant non Muslims. They are after all in the minority.
