New post: "New York Times whitewashes anti-Semitism of incoming House Democrat Ilhan Omar" washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/new-yo…
NYT profile on Ilhan Omar is an attempt to lump critics of her anti-Semitism along with the racists and conspiracy mongers who "fear" somebody different so as to delegitimize opposition washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/new-yo…
NYT sandwiches a reference to Jewish leaders' criticism of her BDS position in between a reference to a pastor's opposition to her hijab and a conspiracy theory abt her being part of a secret plot so as to conflate them washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/new-yo…
NYT refers to Jewish leaders feeling "betrayed" by her "clarification" on BDS. What actually happened: She told Jewish voters in August BDS was "not helpful" then after her election said she backed it. Quite the "clarification," NYT washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/new-yo…
What's more, NYT doesn't reference a Tweet in which Ilhan Omar peddled anti-Semitic conspiracy about Israel having "hypnotized the world," for which she hasn't retracted. washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/new-yo…
This is just the latest demonstration that the Times is perfectly comfortable excusing anti-Semitism as long as it's coming from the Left and masked as mere criticism of Israel. washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/new-yo…
For all of Omar's talk of being made to feel her "otherness," she is perfectly content to "other" minorities, as long as they're only Jews. washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/new-yo…
