SPLC Union avoids condemning Hamas hate groups, accuses Israel of genocide.
The Southern Poverty Law Center Union Stands in Solidarity with Hamas-Controlled Gaza Strip
The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) Union made a bold declaration of support for the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip last week. In a controversial move, they accused Israel of genocide for retaliating against the terrorists responsible for the massacre of 1400 Israelis, over two dozen Americans, and the hostage-taking of hundreds more.
The SPLC Union, known for its monitoring of hate groups, has faced criticism for refusing to designate left-wing organizations like Black Lives Matter and Democratic Socialists of America as ”hate groups” for their support of Hamas’ actions in Israel.
In a statement posted on X, the SPLC Union, which represents a supermajority of employees across SPLC’s offices, expressed unwavering solidarity with the Palestinian people. They justified their support for the terrorist-backed cause by citing the legacy of anti-oppression and decolonization led by Black and Indigenous leaders.
According to the SPLC Union, Israel is to blame for the violence and destruction in the Middle East. They described the situation in Gaza as a “violent imperialist desecration” and the beginning of a genocide.
Furthermore, the SPLC Union claimed that Israel’s actions have fueled aggression in the United States, resulting in attacks against Muslims, Sikhs, and a rise in antisemitism.
Interestingly, the language used by the SPLC Union echoes President Joe Biden’s concern for Muslims as the real victims in the chaos of the Middle East, while antisemitic threats and attacks against Jews continue to increase worldwide.
The SPLC Union proposed a ceasefire and an end to the occupation as the only solution to the Israel-Hamas war. They emphasized the importance of Palestinian lives, families, and histories.
Despite their attempts to distance themselves from Hamas, the SPLC Union’s rhetoric aligns closely with the terrorist group’s views, accusing Israel of occupation, apartheid, and unjustified bombings.
It comes as no surprise that the SPLC Union takes this stance on Israel, given its leftist leanings. While presenting itself as an organization that monitors hate groups, the SPLC has been criticized for targeting Christian and conservative organizations with partisan designations.
These designations have been used by the FBI, Democrats, Big Tech, and woke corporations to investigate and censor the political opponents of the left.

What are the humanitarian conditions faced by residents of Gaza as a result of the Israeli blockade?
Controlled Gaza Strip by citing the long history of Israeli aggression and human rights violations against the Palestinian people. They accused Israel of imposing a brutal and illegal occupation, and called for an end to the blockade of Gaza, which has resulted in dire humanitarian conditions for its residents.
The SPLC Union condemned what they deemed as “disproportionate and excessive use of force” by Israeli military forces against Palestinian civilians, including women, children, and the elderly. They pointed out the alarming number of Palestinian casualties and the countless lives lost due to the ongoing conflict.
Furthermore, the SPLC Union criticized the international community for its silence and complicity in the suffering of the Palestinian people. They called for global solidarity and pressure on Israel to comply with international law and respect the rights of the Palestinians.
The union emphasized the need for a peaceful and just resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, based on the principles of equality, self-determination, and international law. They called on the United States and other world powers to use their influence to encourage a meaningful dialogue between both parties and to work towards a viable two-state solution.
The statement issued by the SPLC Union sparked controversy and brought attention to the broader debate surrounding the Israel-Palestine conflict. Supporters praised the union for its commitment to human rights and justice, while critics accused them of siding with terrorism and promoting an anti-Israel agenda.
In response to the criticism, the SPLC Union reiterated its dedication to combating all forms of hate and discrimination, regardless of the perpetrators. They defended their stance by asserting that supporting the rights of the Palestinian people and denouncing Israeli aggression does not equate to endorsing terrorism.
The SPLC Union’s solidarity with the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip reflects a broader issue of how different groups perceive and respond to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. While this display of support may be seen as controversial, it highlights the urgent need for a comprehensive and fair resolution to the conflict that respects the rights and aspirations of both Israelis and Palestinians.
