№ 745.2: EXTRA! Trump Sets His Sights On Antisemitism (or does he?)



You may feel as I do that college campuses have gotten increasingly — and inexcusably — anti-Semitic in recent years. But this executive order is not “good for the Jews” as the saying goes. That’s because any anti-discrimination order by this particular president is bad for the Jews, for one simple reason: It further identifies us with an anti-democratic administration.

AND FURTHERMORE (December 11)

This policy has a serious flaw.
It prevents criticism of Israel's gun law*.

Israeli law says all guns must be licensed!
And you can only own one at a time!
When it comes to bullets,
and if you own more than fifty,
you're guilty of a serious crime!

There are no exceptions,
there is no appeal.
So NRA is
anti-Israel?

*US conservatives like to point out that both societies are well-armed, but the similarity ends there: Israelis trust their state, and don’t fear each other
