Warning: some mildly salty language with sexual references.
It’s funny, but it’s also sad: it’s sad because it shows how, even in America, the idea that Jews were just inserted into Israel because of guilt after the Holocaust is so strong. Remember, Obama repeated this in his very first speech to the Muslim world after being elected.
Nothing about the centuries of continuous Jewish presence here, nothing about the yearning to return to our land, nothing about the century of Zionism that predated the Holocaust. Oh well, I guess we have to understand this represents just about the most positive, main stream US view of Israel we can expect.
I can only say I’m sure a European one would be unimaginably worse. What do you think?
If this is the best what the average US parents can provide to their children explaining Israel, it’s quite deperate and alarming.
The PLO did a fantastic job in the PR department that has perpetuated many lies about Israel to the point that even low information voters in America have bought some of them. It is incumbent upon each and every one of us to fight this war of misinformation to the death if necessary.
dont blame the world for connecting the creation of the state of israel to the holocaust, when israel does it too
yom hashoah comes a week before yom haatzmaut
its a mistake
the holocaust has nothing to do with the holocaust and yom hashoah should occur during the 3 weeks
and this bit is neither funny nor accurate
and most american teens dont give the mideast a second thought
Israel gave up in the PR department a long time ago
this was the determining and tragic mistake
it is pointless to win the battles and lose the war
