Marc Lamont Hill told the truth!
In summary, Marc Lamont Hill, professor of Media Studies and Urban Education at Temple University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and a contributor to CNN was fired by CNN on November 29, 2018 in prompt response to tthe following public statements regarding the ongoing, neverending, perpetual conflict between Israel and Palestine.
"Thou shalt not kill," or "You shall not murder," or "You shall not kill (KJV)," is a moral imperative included as one of the Ten Commandments in the Torah, and the Bible, specifically Exodus 20:13 and Deuteronomy 5:17; and in the Qur'an at 17:33. Accordingly, as represented in the graph below, isn't it about time Jews and Muslims stop killing each other in blatant defiance of their so-called religious beliefs?
At least 9,560 Palestinians and 1,248 Israelis have been killed since September 29, 2000.

QUESTION: Is the "situation" between the Palestinans and Jews any different than the "situation" between the Republic of Lakotah (and other Native Americans tribes) and White people who govern and control the United States of America?
ANSWER: Except for the fact of historical and ongoing acts of genocide to eliminate Native Americans, there's absolutely no difference between the ongoing, neverending, and perpetual incarceration and oppression of Native Americans. Here, take a look.
On September 8, 2013 I wrote President Obama that the plight of the Lakotah should take priority of his contemplation of responding to the Assad regime's alleged use of chemical weapons in Syria. In response, I received a "form letter" from President Obama that ignored my request and the Lakotah remain in a perpetual state of poverty and oppression.
In 2002, I wrote Ariel Sharon, Honoralbe Prime Minister of Israeli, Yasser Arafat, Honorable Leader of the Palestine People, and George W. Bush, Jr., President of the United States of America to establish Palestine as a self-governing independent state, as part of a greater republic; not to be controlled, but as peers. I did not receive a response from Sharon, Afafat, or Bush.
Again, "Thou shalt not kill," or "You shall not murder," or "You shall not kill (KJV)," is a moral imperative included as one of the Ten Commandments in the Torah, and the Bible, specifically Exodus 20:13 and Deuteronomy 5:17; and in the Qur'an at 17:33. Unfortunately, the overwhelming majority of "religious" people have absolutely no interest to practice what they preach, which is why I wrote a Bible that mirrors the reality of our humanity. For CNN to condemn Marc Lamont Hill for speaking truth to power, for seeking equitable treatment for Palestinians while continuing to ignore the plight of Native Americans demonstrates the blatant hypocrisy of CNN; and looking at the "big picture," here again we see the true contempt the United States of America has toward real compliance to egalitarian principles.
I welcome your feedback.
