A Brooklyn lawmaker set off a social media storm Wednesday by denying the existence of Palestine and accusing Rep. Ilhan Omar of being an anti-Semite.

“Palestine does not exist,” tweeted Councilman Kalman Yeger, who represents Midwood and other neighborhoods with large Jewish populations.

Israel should stay, but California should only be populated by black bears in bringing back its native population.

All black bears have a right to exist, especially in the city of Los Angeles.

It was Israel 3,000 years ago. Calling it something else doesn’t negate that.

From looking into why Jews vote liberal, I learned that Israel is not even on the radar of American Jewry. It was astonishing until it occurred to me that even though my lineage through both parents is Irish, Ireland is not on my radar, either.

Councilman Yeger who is Jewish and his Jewish constituents are pro Israel (and pro Trump too).

While I agree with you about the "astonishing" voting patterns of liberal Jews, Yeger and his Orthodox Jewish constituents are not part of that unfortunate crowd. Midwood Brooklyn is conservative, pro Israel and pro Trump.

I knew the voting patterns. What astonished me was the unimportance of Israel.

No one mentioned that a huge portion of the "Palestinians" are undesirables kicked out of Jordan forever unwelcome back.

The master plan seems to be throwing this artificial conglomeration of Saudi, Syrian, Egyptian and Jordanian malcontents together, run Soviet-style total-immersion indoctrination (brainwashing) on them through their media, education and social outlets over generations while turning this festering monster's carefully groomed hatred upon Israel.

Having all this financed by duped well-meaning countries around the world through the United Nations under the guise of humanitarian necessity was the truly brilliant stroke.

Yea, that whole trying to murder the King and his entire family will do that. The Jordanians ran them out at bayonet point.

I was giving the jerks the benefit of the doubt. Hamas’ children’s programming showed me how low they can go.

The Bible, despite being an amalgam of passed down histories and sometimes contradictory messages still stands, for me, as an excellent guide for behavior. It’s overall message is love while the Koran is all about hate.

I saw a major network broadcast the story of how a Marine who put in several tours post 9-11, admittedly fueled by hatred, converting to the Islam he fought and proud to do so. That illustrated the media’s dhimmi stance as a reality and not just speculation. “Oh please sir kill my punk subservient ass last!” Disgusting.
