Today’s Campaign Update, Part II (Because The Campaign Never Ends)
The New York Times went full-on Nazi propaganda over the weekend when the cartoon below, depicting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a dog being walked by a blind, yarmulke-wearing Donald Trump, was published in its international edition’s op/ed pages:

The cartoon is despicably reminiscent of the Nazi propaganda about Jews published during the 1920s and 1930s, which often depicted Jews as sub-human “mongrels,” a term also favored by the Democrat Party-created Ku Klux Klan. Here’s an example from a Nazi publication called Der Sturmer:

After fiddling around for about 24 hours as it received forceful blowback from the public for publishing the atrocious cartoon, the Times staff issued a mealy-mouthed “apology” which referred to the cartoon as “offensive” and blamed its publication on an “error of judgment.”
Let’s understand something about this “error in judgment”: Cartoons don’t just suddenly materialize in the op/ed pages of the New York Times based on an “error in judgment” made by one or two people. That’s if the Times’s own propaganda about itself is to be believed. The Times loves to brag about how anything that appears within its pages has to be “checked and re-checked” over and over again by a long line of checkers before it goes to publication.
Despite all the layoffs of recent years, the New York Times remains a big, corporate organization with multiple layers of staffing and management. Before this disgustingly bigoted cartoon went to print, it most likely had to gain pre-approval by at least half a dozen people with high rankings within that organization.
Thus, the truth about this incident is that it didn’t result from a judgment error at all: It resulted from a presence of leftist bias that permeates every level within the newspaper’s organization. The real problem at the New York Times – and pretty much every other major news outlet in this country – is not a lack of judgment, but a lack of diversity of thought.
The simple fact of the matter is that everyone in the line of decision-making for the Times’s op/ed page is a leftist activist, and as we have seen among the leftist Democrat congressional caucus, antisemitism is running rampant among the American political left. This despicable cartoon was able to go to print because there was no one within the Times’s chain of command who doesn’t march in lock step politically with the Ilhan Omars and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortezes and Rashida Talibs of the world.
This wasn’t an “error in judgment.” This was an inevitable outcome of the organization’s politically-myopic hiring practices.
Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz nailed this matter with a pair of Saturday tweets:
Alan Dershowitz ✔ @AlanDersh The anti Semitic cartoon published by the @nytimes is a symptom of a deeper problem on the left. It’s acceptable to many on the left to employ anti Semitic tropes as long as they’re directed against Israel. Anti Zionism is becoming an acceptable cover for anti Semitism

Alan Dershowitz ✔ @AlanDersh The @nytimes owes its readers more than an apology. We are to entitled to an investigation and explanation: how did the anti Semitic cartoon get published? Who approved it? What steps are being taken to prevent a recurrence?

Because an honest investigation would inevitably reveal the real that the company’s management – and its myopic hiring practices – is in fact the cause of the problem.
That is all.

From the newspaper that did not run stories on the holocaust.
In these prophetic days, in essence closing out the Church Age Dispensation, as God turns His attention to the people of Israel and the time of Jacobs troubles, He is exposing the enemies of His chosen people.
Psalm 83:1-5 King James Version (KJV)
1 Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
2 For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
3 They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
4 They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
5 For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
Matthew Chapter 25 describes the judgement of those nations that oppose Israel. There will be sheep nations and goat nations, and they will be judged accordingly.
God set aside the Jewish people (the Apple of Gods Eye) to do two things, to bring Grace to the Gentiles and to provoke Israel to jealousy. But in no way has God withdrawn His Covenant made to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob as preterists claim. What God has promised, He will fulfill. (see Romans chapters 9-11)
False doctrine teaches that prophecies concerning Israel has come to pass, and that we are currently living in the Millennial period. And also that the false teachings of Augustinian claim that God has revoked His promises to the Jewish people and has instead given to the church what He previously conveyed to the Jewish people.
This hatred for the Jewish people can also be seen through the teaching of islam, claiming the promise of the Covenant made through the Seed of Abraham was carried through the lineage of ishmael rather then through Isaac.
The reason for the worlds hatred towards Israel is because the world hates God. God will again re-graft Israel back into the Vine. This will come about following the battle of Armageddon, when Jesus returns and Israel receives Her King.
Zechariah 13:5-6 King James Version (KJV)
5 But he shall say, I am no prophet, I am an husbandman; for man taught me to keep cattle from my youth.
6 And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.
Why does the Left hate Israel? It’s a country of Jews. Jews have always been a reminder to the God-hating Left that he can’t be gotten rid of. No matter how many Jews you kill or how you try to silence Christians, you will have to answer to him one day.
This is the kind of horrific, anti-Semitic propaganda crap you could see in Hitler’s personal diary.
There HAS TO BE accountability for our out-of-control media.
Even the New York Times admitted that it was anti-Semitic, and on this caricature alone, they should be shut down.
It's a Dog Whistle...
Forget David Duke, the fiend, Hitler himself, would have been charmed with that. And, I bet anything, the Times still criticizes Trump with their lie about Charlottesville.
Remember that all leftists have ‘Holocaust in their Hearts’ for those who wont kowtow to their poisonous agenda.
Remember that ‘burn baby burn’ was their mantra in the 60s
BOYCOTT THEM and anyone who does business with them
The Nazi Times.
Let it be known.
Looks like it’s straight out of Der Stürmer.
I’ve seen plenty of political cartoons where Trump is a puppet being played by Putin. Will Any of those publications apologize for their Russophobia ??
They also flat out lied about the Holodomor.
Simply put! The New York Times is now worse that the NY Daily News and NY Newsday. I never thought I’d say this but the best paper in NYC right now is the NY Post.
I dunno. While I vehemently disagree with the NYT on just about everything, I think ya hafta be careful of Freedom of Speech & Press issues with this kindof stuff. Ya hafta take the good with the bad or it's meaningless. Once censorship starts it's a slippery slope. That whole "who we're not allowed to criticize" thing, as we are currently seeing from "our perspective".
We already know that leftists are complete & total azzoles with which there will be no live and let live with. d:^)
Truly offensive.
Yes. When will people stop saying this subversion started in the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, or 1990s?
I was told by people on both left and right circa 1975 that I was ignorant and foolish for not keeping “informed” by reading a reputable daily newspaper. I endured the scorn, because I knew they were all leftist propaganda.
My college roommate, an arrogant Five-Point Calvinist who cynically skewered just about anyone and anything as purveyors of depraved folly, extolled The New York Times to me as “a real newspaper.” He read it daily, though we lived in California.
I would not touch the organ that protected the open communist, Stalin, and closet communist, Roosevelt, and that abetted Hitler in his genocide.
The Frankfurt School did its work well.
Yep. I am now bragging: I have been vindicated. (Funny though, I never got a single mea culpa.)
This is what I was talking about. The Cartoon is disgusting. I would like to dig up some old NYTimes and see if they supported Hitler. Would not be shocked if they did.
Who is talking about censorship? It’s about pushing the NYT to admit they “slant” the “news” to influence opinion. They can print any damn thing they want, but just admit it is not related to the truth!
This despicable cartoon was able to go to print because there was no one within the Times’s chain of command who doesn’t march in lock step politically with the Ilhan Omars and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortezes and Rashida Talibs of the world.
