“After 50 years fighting antisemitism in America, I could not have imagined a time Jews would have to meet in secret locations in Chicago at DNC,” Foxman wrote.

    FUIUUUUUCK YOOOOOOOU.

    Jewish people are not the problem.

    ISRAEL FANATICS are the problem. If you have to meet in secret for fear of harm, you might be doing something wrong.

    We went a long way from this:

    despite the fact that Hamas, Hezbollah, al-Qaida, and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his Iranian regime purport to speak in the name of Islam, and commit to end Israel’s existence and to the destruction of the Jewish people – when religious bigotry rears its ugly head against Muslims, we must speak out.

    (A quote from an opinion piece by Foxman) to this:

    “Why can’t good people see the truth?” said Foxman. “The protesters are not for freedom of speech. They are for hate speech. They are not for peace. They are for destroying Israel.”

    Obviously it’s only okay to speak out against bigotry against Muslims when it’s not Israel that’s perpetrating it, and it’s only okay to speak out against Genocide when it’s not Israel committing it.

    Those downvotes arrived quick

    Op: It’s not because Jews, it’s because Israel. But you knew that already.

    Do they understand that Kamala’s husband is Jewish? He does not seem to be hiding.

    The Jewish leader’s warm words on Tuesday were in sharp contrast to his words of warning for Vice President Kamala Harris that if she were open to consideration for an arms embargo against Israel, she would " lose significant support from American Jews and Democrats that support Israel!"
