Matt Walsh said the other day that the US shouldn’t provide aide to countries with a lower debt to GDP than ours like Israel. Does that make him antisemitic too?

“Does that make him antisemitic too?”

I didn’t say that Owens was an anti-Semite. Her comments can be construed as such, but I’ll leave it at that.

Walsh, like any other American, is free to criticize foreign aid in general and id to Israel in specific. Doing so doesn’t make him an anti-Semite.

Anti-Semitism enters the conversation when Jewish affiliations are questioned: Henry Ford and Charles Lindbergh were not the last to cast doubt on Jewish loyalty to America. (And, of course, John Kennedy was deemed suspect due to his supposed adherence to the Pope.)

As I indicated above, President Trump raised military to Israel to historically high levels. You can fairly oppose his position without being an anti-Semite or a RINO.
