Plattner, under the pseudonym of 'Neohawk,' wrote several stories, claiming to tell the story of Israelis using dog rape to abuse Palestinian prisoners, making it clear that he is promoting an anti-Semitic argument by including Jewish politicians in his text. The American Jewish Congress has strongly condemned his actions.
On Monday, the New York Times allowed a top columnist to stain its pages with obviously fake stories of Israelis using dog rape to abuse Palestinian prisoners.
For decades, most American Jews have been committed readers of the Times and reliable Democratic voters. Jewish labor groups lined up behind Franklin D. Roosevelt for the New Deal, and marched in every civil rights movement since. It wasn’t just individuals: Jewish organizations, too, have spent a century aligned with the Democratic Party.
Even now, Daniel Rosen, president of the American Jewish Congress, makes sure to note on his X bio that he was a board appointee of Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden. This week, he went out of his way to forcefully condemn Rep. Jen Kiggans for agreeing with a radio host that House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries should “get your cotton-picking hands off Virginia.
”Where are Obama and Biden to condemn Jew-hatred?
“What was said about Hakeem Jeffries was sickening, racist, and completely unacceptable,” Rosen tweeted — even though Kiggans herself didn’t speak the objectionable words. “Hate has no place in our politics. ” Except it does: Hate very much has a place in our politics, and that place is largely within the Democratic Party.
The Anti-Defamation League, which sticks its fingers in its collective ears rather than condemn anyone on the left for antisemitism, can manage nothing but a limp response to Platner’s rise — calling news of his totenkopf ink “troubling,” but giving him an absurdly large benefit of the doubt and asserting the candidate didn’t know of the tattoo’s “hateful association. ” The ADL offered a similarly tepid not-quite-condemnation of New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani for his silence after Monday’s pogrom on the streets of Brooklyn.
“Where is Mayor Mamdani? ” the group pleaded in a tweet.
“Jewish New Yorkers deserve a mayor who will stand up for them without hesitation. ”, the adults son of Sen. Rand Paul , who spewed Jew-hatred at Rep.
Mike Lawler in a bar this week. The younger Paul is disgusting, and stupid, but he’s also not a public figure or running for office with a Nazi tattoo on his chest.from the state of Israel over it, refused an early chance to report the findings of the Civil Commission on Oct. 7 Crimes by Hamas against Women and Children.
It reviewed over 10,000 photos and thousands of hours of video, and talked to over 400 witnesses; the Times took the word of just a handful of questionable sources. This is not a both-sides issue. On the right this week, non-Jewish influencers, podcasters and politicians have been pushing back on the lies and the violence targeting Jews.
CNN commentator Scott Jennings called the Times piece “a journalistic atrocity that I actually feel stupid reading out loud” and said everyone involved should be fired. Radio host Buck Sexton, after reading the Civil Commission’s report: “Given the demonic realities of Oct. 7, Israel acted with considerable restraint in its Gaza campaign, and should be commended for it. ”And sure, there are antisemites nominally on the political right, Tucker Carlson infamously among them.
But so many non-Jews in the conservative world — President Trump, Sen. Ted Cruz , commentator Victor Davis Hanson and a host of others — have lined up against Carlson’s foul suggestions that his influence on that side of the aisleWho on the left is doing the same? It should, at last, wake up those Jews on the left who care at all about self-preservation — or that of their children.
