Keith Ellison Lies to CNN :: The Investigative Project on Terrorism

Keith Ellison Lies to CNN :: The Investigative Project on Terrorism: With a new challenger to his bid to become Democratic National Committee chairman, U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison took to CNN Wednesday morning and lied about 2010 anti-Israel remarks first exposed by the Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT).

During a private fundraiser, Ellison criticized what he saw as Israel's disproportionate influence in American foreign policy.

"The United States foreign policy in the Middle East is governed by what is good or bad through a country of 7 million people. A region of 350 million all turns on a country of 7 million. Does that make sense? Is that logic? Right?"

Asked about the comments by CNN anchor Chris Cuomo, Ellison falsely claimed he was merely answering a question about political involvement.
