[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He’s not an anti-Semite. His parents immigrated to the states from Israel. He just hates black people.[/quote]

Not according to his posts on social media, where he talked about "offing" all the Jews.  [/quote]

It wasn't just racial slurs or "callous" remarks, it was also comments like "I WILL [EFFING] MAKE A CSOG MAP OF DOUGLAS AND PRACTICE Kill all the [EFFING] JEWS. [EFF] THE JEWS."[/quote][/quote]

There are a lot of Americans who like Israel and hate Jews. It's a very strange thing.[/quote]

What are you babbling about?  You don't need to normalize a teenager who hates Jews.[/quote]

I'm not normalizing him. I was saying that even if his parents are from Israel, he can be an anti-semite. Sorry if that wasn't clear. (And I don't actually know if his parents are Israeli - that's what PP was saying as evidence that he's not an anti-semite.)[/quote]

He does say his parents are from Israel - I don't know if he is lying or not

Sure whatever, I'm sure he'll say next that some of his best friends are black.   :roll: [/quote]

Again: I am not saying he is not an anti-semite. He is talking about killing Jews. Clearly the words of an anti-semite. I am saying that I have noticed that there are a lot of Americans who like Israel - or purport to like Israel - and also seem to hate Jews. It is disturbing. As a Jew myself, I don't quite know what to make of it or what to do with it.

But yes, he is clearly the kind of person who would hold up his black friend as evidence that he can't possibly be racist.[/quote]
