Omar Shakir (b. 1958) is an Arab-American anti-Israel[1] hater. Active against Israel since he was a student.[2][3]

All along, Shakir was and is dismissing Israel's security concerns but instead maliciously defaming it.

Apartheid slur

 
Shukairy, helped Hitler & turned the Arabs against the West = first to hurl "apartheid" slur
 
Shukairy fought with the Communists against the Allies. After Hitler invaded the Soviet Union, Shukairy switched to help the Nazis against the Jews = first to hurl "apartheid" slur

The Apartheid slur[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] [13][14][15][16][17][18][19] [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] to delegetimize and demonize Israel was originally invented by genocidal[29][30] Jihadi[31] Ahmad Shukeiri[32] (who in 1940 glorified, prayed for,[33][34] then supported Hitler since 1941,[35][36][37][38][39] justified the Holocaust in 1946,[40] and promoted neo Nazi storm trooper gang[41][42] who guarded Adolf Eichmann[43] and has tortured a 19 year old woman, carved a swastika into her flesh, as revenge for killing Eichmann[44]) He did it in October 1961 in the context of him protesting the Eichmann trial,[45] some 5 and a half years before[46] the so-called "occupation" of the Six-Day War.


(The A slur, and others like it, "Slur-du-jur"[47] the slandering via incorrectness,[48] a demonization[49] terminology exclusively. [VS real apartheid Arab--Islamic Middle East.[50]]).

Shakir and the Apartheid slur

From a 2010 Arab report,[51] he struggled with applying the "apartheid" label on Israel because conditions are not the same as South Africa, such as Arabs in Israel actually do have voting rights.

Shakir was deported from Israel for his harmful BDS activities in November 2019.[52]

In April 2020, in a tweet[53] he shows excitement to another infamous long time instigator, who serves in Btselem for promoting the apartheid slur saying it was "already" a "fact" for some time.[54][55]

A year later, Shakir himself also promoted it, abusing the HRW platform.[56]

He expanded the Apartheid term, as so to fit his long-term anti-Israel agenda. Not realizing his expansion would cover many others, but realizing that according to his new apartheid definition, Israel can never escape this terminology, no matter what it does. (Hence proving again, point of pure hatred)[57]

Hatred and violence perpetuated after Shakir Apartheid-slur promotion

Since Shakir has outrageously used the HRW status, it has boosted even more the excuse for anti-Israel radicals to use the trope.

Then came the Squad[58] to repeat it after of "Palestinian" Arab origin Rashida Tlaib usage of it. An Israeli Arab replied to AOC on the falsehood of applying the term vs reality of Arabs in democratic Israel with full equal rights.[59] The promotion and rising use of the term has contributed to anti-Semitic attacks especially since May-2021 Guardian of Walls.[60] Which as a result, even anti-Israel ardent activist, Bernie Sanders, (who is known to throw the term "racism" frequently at so many situations so often, ridiculously) has asked to refrain from this and such rhetoric.[61] All the while other "activists" such as known anti-Jewish Islamic politicians Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib have not done so.

 
From Arab journalist in Ramallah's tweet: Tala Halawa

After daughter of Mohammed Hadid, Bella tweeted a vitriol against Israel including the 'A' slur, and Tala Halawa, an Arab journalist based in Ramallah, working for the BBC, punlished an extreme style piece supporting Hadid's stance, Halawa's earlier shocking antisemitic tweets were exposed, including that "Hitler was right." BBC reporter comes under fire for tweet saying 'Hitler was right'.[62][63][64]

    Shakir, who took up his current position in 2016, has been involved and invested in the Israeli-Arab conflict since his days as a student. While studying at Stanford University, he was president of the university's anti-Israel group, and even submitted a boycott proposal on behalf of Israel on its behalf, calling for the university to withdraw its investments from companies doing business in Israel. Even then, in 2013, members of the Student Council claimed that his remarks were full of "historical inaccuracies" and that they were an "attack on Israel in disguise." Upon graduation he began working at the Center for Constitutional Rights, where he represented a professor fired from the University of Illinois for tweets such as "Scores have turned anti-Semitism from something terrible to something respectable since 1948."

    His hobby at the time was, by the way, lecturing at events of "Students of Justice in Palestine," one of the most extremist anti-Israel student organizations, who argue that the Palestinian state should cover the entire territory of Israel. From the beginning of its activity until today, he presents Israel as an apartheid state that carries out ethnic cleansing.

"They consistently ignore or downplay the fact that Israel’s security measures in the West Bank and around Gaza are the response to well-documented terror activities. The ridiculous ‘apartheid‘ slur in this report is belied by the fact that, as it stands, Israel’s next Government may well rely on the support of Arab parties, voted for by the country’s fully-enfranchised Arab citizens. "Israel’s Arab citizens have been appointed as ambassadors, professors, Supreme Court judges, hospital directors, and other key roles throughout Israel’s socio-economic landscape. Civil society organizations should be directing their efforts towards reinvigorating the peace process, not trading in false hyperbole that extends the cycle of conflict," she said. NGO Monitor president Professor Gerald Steinberg, also criticised the report writing in the Jerusalem Post that it comprised "the standard mix of shrill propaganda, false allegations and legal fictions." "Exploiting the 'apartheid' image for propaganda is a cynical appropriation of the suffering of the victims of the actual apartheid regime"..
