You remind me of the people who argued I was pro Saddam because I opposed the Iraq war. It's a dumb argument.

No, but people who deny Assad used chemical nerve agents against civilians are. But you know that and don’t seem to care.

Has Katie Halper ever denied the regime's CW policy herself?

It’s people who suggested that the chemical attacks were false flags or those who call the white helmets “al qaeda” who are Assadist. Hope this helps.

This is a strange false equivalency. People are upset because Halper went on the podcast of a notorious CW denialist specifically to discuss Syria, and not once did she confront the host's chemical weapons denialism. That's sort of what you called for a boycott of, right, Jeet?

I mean, it's just weird that as part of your article which argues that leftists who go on Carlson without confronting his racism should boycott the show, you uncritically cite someone who has themselves gone on the show of a notorious conspiracy theorist without confronting them.

They're not just anti-war. They're on the other side.
