Sarah Jama doesn't belong in elected office, but after her horrific comments, Marit Stiles failed to kick the MPP out of the NDP caucus.

There has been a lot of that going on as people respond to the horrific acts of terrorism in Israel by finding excuses for the butchers in Hamas.NDP MPP Sarah Jama has been showing us her true colours for a long time, but many didn’t want to believe herwas who she really was. Then, in response to the Hamas terror attack, she blamed Israel, called them an apartheid state and joined in a rally that chanted for uprising and revolution in response to the Hamas atrocities.

It was almost 24 hours later before Jama or Stiles said anything further. Then came a joint statement with an apology of sorts.“To be clear, I unequivocally condemn terrorism by Hamas on thousands of Israeli civilians. I also believe that Israel’s bombardment and siege on civilians in Gaza, as was also noted by the United Nations, is wrong,” Jama said.
