CNN's Anchor Don Lemon has long sinced griped that to some in the Black community he's nothing more than a token, collaborator who parrots his master's narrative peppered with the practically irrelevant therapeutic tale of a Justice Clarence Thomas like against all odds lament.
On 6/6/10; during an interview of Ari Fleisher, a Zionist protagonist. Don Lemon allowed and permitted Ari Fleisher without any objection to compare Helen Thomas's observation that Jew's in Israel should return to their European homelands with Black-Americans being told to return to Africa.
Make whatever one makes of Helen Thomas comments, but Ari Fleisher's feeble attempt at comparing Israel's pathetic and unjust struggle against the Palestinian people with the moral equivalency of the Black-American experience and the Cold War of American Racism, only shows his cognizance that Israel's Palestinian question is untenable. Fleisher's case would be to compare Thomas comments with European invaders and Colonizers of North America being told to return to European ancestral lands, because both lands Palestine and North America share the commonality of European invasions.
True to form CNN's Don Lemon's silence in the face of Ari Fleisher exploiting the Black-American Experience is another fact in Don Lemon's continuum of being a token and collaborator.
