    This is beyond disgusting. This is not the first time that someone from the Jewish right has directed genocidal fantasies against me as someone on the Jewish left. The implication is that we deserve it; that lefty Jews caused the Holocaust. This is antisemitism.

    Good choice. Though I suspect you may end up in a mass grave like they just found in Belarus if things keep moving the direction they’re moving and you maintain this level of denial. how ironic would that be?

    You don’t grasp sarcasm. How unfortunate and embarrassing for you.

    It warms my heart to see the left wing of the Democratic Party reject AIPAC.

    MoveOn is calling on 2020 presidential candidates to not attend the AIPAC conference. Here are 4 reasons why:

    Big-ish. But the progov talking heads on the public broadcaster have been going on about humiliation and Soros for the past hour or so... so what now?

    will be suspended with immediate effect and until further notice following today’s vote of EPP members (190 in favour, 3 against). The suspension entails: ▪No attendance at any party meeting ▪No voting rights ▪No right to propose candidates for posts

    Since from just appeared on not-so-much-a-doctor Seb Gorka's radio show, "America First," I thought I'd share what I wrote about the two of them and Tablet years ago. This is a shonda.

    This is horrifically on brand. FFS.

    Happy Purim! Tablet's premiere Nazi Ally Defender™ talked with Seb Gorka about how Ilhan Omar is a "vile anti-Semite" and how the Left is a "death cult...replacing actual Jews" +treating Jews "as vilely and anti-Semitically as the Inquisition did." Enjoy!

    Left foot, green.

    According to sources who saw Kushner's plan: Jordan would give land to the Palestinian territories, and "in return, Jordan would get land from Saudi Arabia, and that country would get back two Red Sea islands it gave Egypt to administer in 1950."

    "This is a government that is misleading its citizens into thinking that there is no war in the territories, and there isn’t even an occupation there. It... pats their heads and consoles them that with every victim, Israel is becoming stronger."

    Don't mistake my opposition to the occupation and to political nationalism in general for callousness with regard to the lives, equality, and welfare of Jews in Israel. I thought that went without saying... I also don't have a plan. If I did, I'd have a different job.

    On the relationship between philosemitism and antisemitism.

    This is an important comment, IMO. It reveals how philo-Semitism is so often conditional and, due to that, is actually a form of anti-Semitism.

    My message to US Jews showing solidarity post-Christchurch: "We must grapple with the ways some who presume to speak for us have enabled this violence...We must speak out against the day-to-day incitement that is far too often carried out in our name"

    Literally just responding to the words you chose to write. Own ‘em.

    So just to be clear: if you think a cartoon like the one Eli Valley drew of Chelsea Clinton as St.Mary but instead using a central figure of Muslim reverence would be "Islamophobia", then you got my point: the cartoon was -like much of Eli Valley's work- vile and bigoted.

    Context for yesterday's bizarre Fascism ad

    New Right is plummeting in the polls and what's left is to do what other Western far-right parties have been doing to attract voters, employ gaslighting humor to troll the leftists and try and reestablish some street cred for Naftali and Ayelet. By the reactions, it's working.
