Eight-year CNN freelance contributor Adeel Raja was exposed on Twitter Sunday for recent and past tweets in support of Adolf Hitler, who lead the genocide of approximately 6 million Jews under the Nazi Germany regime.
As the Israel/Gaza conflict escalates, journalists were quick to put in their two cents to the discussion. Adeel Raja was no different, but his tweets were appalling and a show of blatant antisemitism. Both of which Twitter and CNN allowed to stay on their platform as a verified member, and as a writer.
Tweets included statements such as “Hail Hitler.”
In reference to the FIFA 2014 world finals where Germany played Argentina, “The only reason I am supporting Germany in the finals is Hitler was a German and he did good with those jews!”
“My support for Germany is due to what Hitler did with Jews!”
In response to another journalist, “@alishahjourno: Palestinian genocide inner Hitler among Germans must resurface” hell yeah!!!”
Many of Raja’s tweets have since been deleted.
As an outlet, CNN seemed willing to throw the “Nazi accusation around, with well-known anchors Don Lemon and Christine Amanpour went on “unhinged” rants about the Trump presidency and supporters. Lemon’s rant, saved by the Daily Telegraph on video, includes the claim, “If you voted for Trump you voted for the person who the Klan supported. You voted for the person who Nazis support ”
Amanpour’s rant compared the Trump presidency to the Kristallnacht before the host walked back her sentiments.
With an outlet so dedicated to “calling out” Nazism wherever they deem fit, it is odd they’ve allowed a long-time contributor to publicly support Hitler’s horrific extermination of Jews since 2014, only now denouncing any ties to Raja.
CNN did eventually drop Raja from its freelance roster.

And Trump was continually accused of being like Hitler. Go figure.
The left follows the mantra “CALL YOUR ENEMY what you yourself ARE”!
This should be no surprise. After WW II many former Nazis emmigrated to Islamic countries and remained out of sight but they influenced their host countries concerning dealing with Jews, especially those closest to Israel. As a whole the Muslim faith is anti-Jewish in its teachings so there is no stretch of imagination to know where his values lie. Of course they are in complete alignment with leftist views but when they become TOO obvious…well!
All i want to know, is WHEN WILL CNN fire her!
CNN, the Communist News Network, sure has winners as employees. Jeffrey Toobin, who was pleasuring himself on camera and this anti-Semetic racist, Adeel Raja. Plus all of the other racists on CNN. What a racist joke for a cable news network!
It is beyond appalling that someone representing a major U.S. news network, like anti-Semitic CNN contributor Adeel Raja, would be allowed to use Twitter to express his admiration for the Nazi leader who was ultimately responsible for the horrific deaths of approximately six million Jews. Jack Dorsey and his merry band of radical leftist censors are quite willing to provide a high-profile, public platform to dangerous, Jew-hating Islamists but have permanently suspended the account of former President Trump. Radical leftists have consistently demonstrated that there is essentially no limit to how low they will sink in order to vilify and censor political opponents while allowing the spread of hatred for Jews and Israel. The radical left and radical Islamists have at least one thing in common. They both have total contempt for Western civilization’s Judeo-Christian values and are committed to destroying them.
