https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-6/antisemite-of-the-week-ryan-dawson-the-holocaust-denying-bigot

Ryan Dawson is a self-proclaimed journalist and "human rights activist" who runs a self-produced news report, "Ry Dawson's ANC Report". He uses hisprogram to spread horrific antisemitic conspiracy theories, promote Holocaust revisionism, and vilify Israel.

Dawson has a history of demonizing Israel, and is proud of his connections to radical Muslim organizations in the US. Dawson  was a speaker at a March 2017 rally organized by Al-Awda, a group led by Abbas Hamideh with ties to Hezbollah and Palestinian terrorist groups. Dawson is a supporter of the antisemitic Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement has also shown support for www.stopantisemitism's 2019 antisemite of year Ilhan Omar.

Dawson frequently blames the Jews and Israel for the Covid-19 pandemic. During several now-deleted Youtube video tirades from 2020, Dawson said the following:

- "Whatever all these Hasidics going around coughing on stuff... Round 'em up, put them in the paddy wagon."

- "Dude, America is sending Israelis money right now because of coronavirus, Now because of coronavirus we're sending people in Israel money... that dual loyalty though..."

- "What really p**ses me off is people [Jews] spreading it [coronavirus] on purpose."

Dawson has also tweeted antisemitic tropes about Jewish power such as "The American system is totally in control of the Jews, whose first priority is Israel, not the United States."

In addition, Dawson frequently spreads false claims about the Holocaust, such as the following sickening statements:

- "I can't stand is when good people knock down exaggerations like soap and lampshades, gas disguised as showers, human hair mattresses, and people (not corpses) thrown into ovens, they will be labeled deniers."

- "Six million is not from history it's from propaganda. And it is exclusively the number and group we focus on in WWII."

- "But even if, there is still no Holocaust" (in response to another statement claiming "There were no gas and ovens anyway".)



Dawson also demonizes the Jewish State, stating that Israel is:

- "Cancer, AIDS and A Parasite"

- "a toxic Haven for sex offenders and organized crime, a manipulator for war, annexer of land, murderers of children."

- "Real Isis. Isis real. Is Israel."

Maybe the members of TIU can get a Group Nomination.

I know an ADL rabbi in Texas who hates us for telling the truth.  Maybe he could nominate us.
