My previous post got me looking over Roseanne Barr’s Twitter feed. And I have to say I was surprised by some of the things I saw.
In short, Barr seems to have mellowed when it comes to her views on Israel.
In addition to the tweets in my previous post, she argues Israel is not an “apartheid” state:

She also seems to oppose BDS:
And opposes palestinian terror groups:
Remember, this is the same woman who has in the past has seemed obsessed with criticizing Israel, calling Israel a “Nazi state”, comparing Hamas to just a “street gang”, and even claiming palestinians were not firing rockets at us, but rather we were firing at ourselves! She has even sounded antisemitic herself.
On the other hand..

I’d be interested to find out what precipitated the change, but she still has me blocked on Twitter.
