Jill Stein claims “the Jewish people have Poland” (update: she actually said "homeland")

[SWE]

I have no idea how anyone can hear "Poland" here. It's not even ambiguous, she's saying Poland very clearly

I'm pretty sure this is miscaptioned; if you actually listen with the sound on, she says "homeland" not "Poland".

'The Jewish people have homeland' doesn't even make grammatical sense

What's more likely - a person speaking off the cuff made a grammatical error, or she intended to say Poland while pronouncing "homeland" perfectly?

Read your first sentence carefully.

Yeah she doesn't say the letter "A" and it sounds more like "Poland" than "homeland". Then her people captioned it "Poland". Why are people working so hard to give this Putinist wretch cover? Change back the title, there's absolutely no reason to believe she says "homeland".

No. The thread title is accurate. She is a foul person, no need to lie about what she said to placate your special feelings.

Either translation is a vile call for ethnic cleansing.

Most of Poland is German homeland so shrug 🤷‍♀️

I've no love lost for Jill Stein, but she very clearly says "homeland" here, and the guy arguing with her even repeats "homeland" back.

I think AltorBotox and Parrotguy need their hearing checked. Maybe they were the friends Eve Barlow was referring to who thought a "free parking" sign really said "free Palestine."

[Mr. Ukucasha]

Yeah, it sounds like she actually said "homeland." However, the word "homeland" makes no sense in the sentence "the Jewish people have homeland," but the word "Poland" does make sense in the sentence "the Jewish people have Poland." It's a common "anti-Zionist" talking point/slogan to tell the "European Zionist Colonists" of Israel to "go back to Poland."

In 2016, Democrats told everyone she was an anti-vaxxer, which was a total lie. It doesn't matter what she does, the Democrats will attack her.

[Harlow]

Well, she got arrested.

Saw that on X. Cemented my approval of her campaign this time around. Should she be a write-in option in my state, it's a 95% chance I'll vote for her.

[Harlow]

Fun fact: this is not the first time Jill has been arrested while campaigning. She was also arrested in 2012 outside a debate at Hofstra.

[MichaelM24]

I feel that she was also arrested during a Standing Rock protest, but I may be wrong.

She had a warrant out for her arrest in North Dakota, which she bragged about at a campaign event I attended, but wasn't actually arrested.

Amy Goodman, however, was charged and then turned herself in.
