Why would CNN include quotes from the leader of a genocide denying organization?

It would be like with the Cali wildfires they had the kkk grand lizard get on TV and talk about how sad it is...
It is sad, but we don't want to fucking hear from people like that.
Don't normalize these extremists by letting them pull an Al Sharpton everytime there's a tragedy. Not to mention that the whole reason they insert themselves is to blur the line between the religion and the state of Israel.
Edit:
To clarify the organization (Representative Council of Jewish Institutions in France) which that person is currently the leader of has been excusing human rights abuses by Israel for years.
They're less an advocate for members of the religion and more PR for Israel.
Normalizing them and going with their bullshit further intertwines Judaism with Israel.
They are not the same things
I think we all know why American Media would side with genocide.
That is what I said
And I linked a release by that organization, that shows they've long ignored the genocide of the Palestinian people. Like, it's not like up to 10/6 everything was rosey for the indigenous people over there, it's kind of been happening for a while....
But I think you misunderstood my comment, and are now expecting me to defend some position I've never held...
I realized this 4 hours ago and even added a note to the original comment clarifying incase anyone else were confused you like.
Are we on the same page now?
Because yes, I do 100% agree with what you said:
It's just that no one has said any differently either...
Like, Joe Montana didn't write Harry Potter either, but if we're just naming different pairs of people it kind of feels like this has gone off the rails...
Quick edit:
Oh...
I just realized this is you coming back to the same thread 4 hours later and replying with a "gotcha"...
Because up till now you never have said that it wasn't him. This reply really did come out of nowhere
This has gone off the rails.
Maybe you should examine whether it makes sense to silence Jewish voices on the anniversary of a Jewish massacre because of a decade-old blog post that wasn't even written by the person quoted.
I'm not the Shomrim...
If someone does something wrong they don't get a free pass from me because their religion matches mine.
So while you label that "silencing Jewish voices" I label it "silencing supporters of genocide".
Can you clarify why you care more about the genocide deniers religion then them denying a genocide?
