I am sitting at the Blue Square Alliance Against Hate Conference this week, listening to Van Jones, and I'm disappointed in myself because I'm not hating everything he's saying.
It starts with this:
"I work for CNN," Jones says, "But I'm not CNN. I don't agree with everything CNN says or does."

I must not be well because Jones was once appointed a "czar" in the Obama administration, and the United States Congressional Record clearly paints him as an avowed communist.
And I'm an adult born into communism who experienced it first-hand. So, I know people in America who praise communism despite never having lived that disastrous totalitarian experience are idiots. Actually, they're useful idiots, as Lenin said.
Despite this, Jones is saying some stuff that isn't outright wrong.
He shares with the audience at the Blue Square Alliance Against Hate conference that he visited Gaza in 2002 and 2004 before Hamas took over. So he understood the profound meaning of the Hamas attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.
"You say Hamas to me, you're saying the Ku Klux Klan, the Nazis, I knew exactly what that group is about," Jones says. "But then I realized almost nobody in my world would know Hamas from hummus. They wouldn't have any idea.
"Suddenly, I decided I have to step up and be an ally [to Israel]."
