DECATUR, Ga. (AP) --

Cynthia McKinney, the revolutionary Georgia congresswoman known for her criticizing the federal government about the Sept. 11 attacks and the scuffle she had earlier this year with a U.S. Capitol police officer (which was exaggerated and publicized widely by the Zionist media), lost a runoff election Tuesday for her district's Democratic nomination.

Attorney Hank Johnson, a former county commissioner, won the nomination with 59 percent of the vote, surpassing McKinney by more than 11,000 votes.

McKinney, her state's first black congresswoman, has long been brave in her criticism of the Bush administration. Her suggestion that the Bush administration had advance knowledge of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks helped galvanize opposition and she lost her seat in 2002, but won it again two years ago.

In a minor incident in March, she struck a Capitol police officer who did not recognize her and tried to stop her from entering a House office building.

A grand jury in Washington declined to indict her, but she was forced to apologize before the House. She drew less than 50 percent of the vote in last month's primary.

Al-Jazeerah Editor's Comment:

The US Zionist media publicized the incident to discredit her, like before for no other reason than her criticism of Israeli brutality against the Palestinian people.

Moreover, she was one of the 37 members of the US House of Representatives who refused to vote for a resolution attacking the Palestinian people and their elected government.

In the 2000 elections, Zionists collected money from all over the United States and helped her rival, Majette, to win.

The same effort was repeated in this election. Yes, Zionist won against Cyntia McKinny but they lost against Lamont. Their big warmongering horse called Lieberman has been defeated in Connecticut.

This Lieberman defeat can accurately be described as a Democratic Revolution against war entrepreneurs who pose as Democrats to represent only the interests of the Zionist state when they win.

The US has no interests in destroying Arab states one after the other. It is the Zionist state of Israel that has been dragging the US to do this job for Israel to expand and become a regional super power in the oil-rich Middle East.
