Richard Silverstein’s reaction to today’s atrocity committed against Israeli tourists in Bulgaria:
4 Israelis Killed in Bulgaria bombing; after Iran has seen so many of these sad days, now Israel joins in the suffering nyti.ms/OZnMUl

At the time of this tweet, it was reported everywhere that 7 Israelis were killed, not 4. So he either deliberately reduced the number or is once again demonstrating his sloppy fact-checking.
Plus note how he’s suggesting Iran has been suffering so much (presumably because of us), and only now we join them in suffering,
Many wars, hundreds of terror attacks and tens of thousands of dead Israelis later.
This man is beyond the pale.
Update: He’s now comparing the killing of Iranian nuclear scientists working on a bomb to destroy Israel with the murder and maiming of Israeli tourists, including teens and a pregnant woman.
