My thoughts on politics.
The Week magazine drew criticism last week, after accompanying an op-ed with a political cartoon of President Biden trapped inside a blue Star of David. After social media exploded with criticisms and outrage from Jewish leaders and other observers on social media, the magazine removed the graphic. The op-ed, entitled “Israel is Testing Biden” criticized …
By the time you read this, it will have been just a memory and it remains to be seen what effect the 48-hour boycott of Twitter will have on the social media giant’s refusal to take appropriate action against antisemitic accounts and tweets. The boycott, slated for Monday and Tuesday, is a reaction to horrific …
On the eve of last week’s Yom HaShoah, the day that Israel memorializes Jews murdered in the Holocaust, notorious antisemite, Rashida Tlaib, the congresswoman from Detroit, tweeted a photo of a memorial candle, with a message that pretends to feel bad about the Holocaust while never mentioning the word “Jew.” This #HolocaustRemembranceDay—and every day—we pay …
Brexit Candidate Yosef David is now famous for his hilariously raised eyebrow during Corbyn’s concession speech at Islington, the video of which has gone viral. The involuntary facial response occurred when failed candidate Corbyn, a notorious antisemite, said he was proud that while Labour lost the election, the party’s campaign did not descend into the …
After Tlaib agreed to the conditions of Israel’s Interior Minister Ariyeh Deri, in order to see her grandmother, she changed her mind and backtracked, refusing to refrain from political activity during her visit. President Trump was quick to comment on the seeming cynicism of Tlaib’s actions. Israel was very respectful & nice to Rep. Rashida …
You know how it is, killing time while waiting for your plane. What else are you gonna do but go on Facebook? And since you’re sitting in Ben Gurion Airport, after visiting the Jerusalem Al-Aqsa Mosque, you might as well post a status expressing a prayerful wish that all Jews be exterminated. At least that’s …
Israel’s Ministry for Strategic Affairs, headed up by MK Gilad Erdan, has launched a PR blitz with the hashtag #terroristsinsuits to tell the world that a study of 13 international BDS NGOs found some 30 terror activists hold leadership positions in these organizations. Of the 30, fully twenty of these terror activists served time in …
It’s a tragedy when anyone is murdered, no matter their religion, especially when they are young. But in the wake of the horrific murder of Israeli Arab Aiia Maasarwe, some have expressed a repugnant thought: that it’s fine when the murder victims are Jewish Israelis. So noted Gav Kostonov, on Facebook: Just as the leaders …
Farrakhan lost his blue verification mark on Twitter for calling Jews “termites.” I’m not an anti-Semite. I’m anti-Termite. pic.twitter.com/L5dPQcnVg4 — MINISTER FARRAKHAN (@LouisFarrakhan) October 16, 2018 But Jewish organizations are screaming for Twitter to take the tweet down and to take down his Twitter account altogether. Chelsea Clinton said that hearing the “responsive laughter” made …

Roseanne Barr is currently under fire for “Ambien tweeting” about Valerie Jarret and George Soros. Her show has been canceled. She apologized to Jarret. And now she’s apologized to George Soros for calling him a Nazi collaborator. Which is weird, because he’s pretty much admitted he’s a Nazi collaborator. It’s sad watching a gutsy woman …
