NYTIMES PUTS ITS ANTISEMITISM ON FULL DISPLAY - JUST IN TIME FOR PASSOVER!

IT'S QUITE A COLUMN BY REGULAR COLUMNIST ROGER COHEN:

• COMPARING BIBI TO KHRUSHCHEV.
• PRAISING ANDREW SULLIVAN.
• PROMOTING - ONCE AGAIN - A FALSE MORAL EQUIVALENCE BETWEEN FATAH, HAMAS AND ISRAEL.

UNREAL:

It fell to Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, to play the role Khrushchev once played in toughening a young American president.

The former Soviet leader thought he could browbeat Kennedy only to discover, in Vienna, that the Kennedy charm was not unalloyed to steel (“It will be a long, cold winter.”) Netanyahu was the first foreign leader to think he could steamroll Obama. He earned a frosty comeuppance.

The Israeli leader toyed with Obama’s unequivocal call in Cairo last June for a “stop” to Israeli settlements. He allowed the ill-timed announcement that 1,600 apartments for Jews will be built in East Jerusalem. Then, rather than scrap that, Netanyahu chose cheap cheers from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee with “Jerusalem is not a settlement.”

(I say cheap because everyone knows Jerusalem is not a settlement. That’s not the issue. The issue is that the Israeli annexation of East Jerusalem is rejected by the rest of the world and any peace agreement will involve an inventive deal on its status. To build is therefore to provoke.)

Obama was not amused. He airbrushed Netanyahu’s White House visit. The message was clear: The Middle East status quo does not serve the interests of the United States (or Israel). When Obama says “stop,” he does not mean “build a bit.”

Sometimes mistakes are needed. Through the law of unintended consequences they open new avenues.

So it is with the East Jerusalem housing fiasco. Nothing will happen in the Middle East unless the United States is seen as an honest broker able to criticize both sides when needed. Obama’s anger sped a needed clarification and freed debate.

As Andrew Sullivan has observed, a cultural shift is underway with respect to Israel: “The critics have been called ‘self-hating Jews’ if they are Jewish, or anti-Semites if they are not, but these barbs — once sufficient to end someone’s career — have failed to have an effect this time.”

Yes, indeed.

ANTI-ZIONIST LEFTIST SCUM LIKE COHEN AND SULLIVAN THINK THAT WHEN THE USA TREATS AN ALLY - ISRAEL - SHABBILY AND THE LEADERS OF FATAH WITH DEFERENCE THAT THIS IS BEING AN HONEST BROKER.

THAT SAYS IT ALL.

THE FACT IS: ISRAEL HAS BEEN BUILDING IN JERUSALEM SINCE 1968.

SO BUILDING 1600 MORE APARTMENTS REALLY ISN'T NEW.

THE FACT IS, DURING BIDEN'S TRIP THE PA/FATAH DEDICATED A PUBLIC SQUARE TO A WOMAN WHO COMMITTED ONE OF THE WORST TERRORIST ATTACKS ON ISRAEL. AND NEITHER BIDEN OR OBAMA OR HILLARY SAID "BOO".

THEIR SILENCE ABOUT THIS AND MEANS IT MIST BE OKAY TO THE OBAMA AND THE NYTIMES.

BUT IT'S WORSE:

OBAMA AND THE COHEN OF THE NYTIMES ALSO THINK THAT APPEASING JIHADIST SCUM CAN ACTUALLY LEAD TO PEACE.

THIS IS AN IDIOTIC POLICY WHICH MAKES US ALL LESS SAFE --- YES ALL OF US: NOT JUST ISRAEL, BUT THE ENTIRE WEST - GIVING IN TO TERROR REWARDS THE TERRORISTS AND ENCOURAGES THEM TO DO MORE.

THIS IS NOT SURPRISING COMING FROM FOLKS WHO LEAKED SEVERAL CLASSIFIED SECRETS AND AN ADMINISTRATION WHICH INCLUDES PEOPLE WHO WROTE AMICUS BRIEFS FOR GITMO DETAINEES.

[NOTE: I REALLY BELIEVE THAT COHEN AND SULLIVAN ARE ANTISEMITES: WHEN YOU HOLD ISRAEL TO A SEPARATE STANDARD FROM ALL OTHER NATIONS IS IS - BY DEFINITION - ANTISEMTISM.]
