'Settlers are lowly murderers,' says Herzog spokesman

Zionist Union chief Isaac Herzog’s spokesman Ofer Newman stirred up controversy Saturday night with provocative comments posted on Facebook targeting Jews living in Judea and Samaria.

The post came after the airing of the TV special “The Settlers”, inspiring Newman to publicly air his feelings on the Jewish communities over the Green Line. Launching into a typed tirade, Newman labelled Jews in Judea and Samaria as “lowly murderers” who “built swimming pools on the blood of murdered children.”

The special, said Newman, “is painful and terrifying proof of this simple fact: the people who are destroying our future have won without a fight. People thought they are crazy. They laughed at them.”

“But with great strength and determination they committed this horror. This blatant disregard for our chance to not die here. They violently stole our hope. They trampled over Jewish morals; the Zionism that built up [national] revival here. They won because someone was stupid enough to fear them.”

The invective only increased later in the post, with Newman calling for Jews living over the Green Line to be imprisoned.

Funny how all the terror attacks stopped after Israel gave up the Sinai Peninsula. Poof, everyone loved Israel overnight!

Did I miss some news reports? Was there some Arab family ambushed in their home. Was an Arab father gunned down on a deserted highway on his way home from work?

[I would have posted this to INN directly but they require a Facebook login; and Facebook doesn't like some opponents of the left - like moi.]

“built swimming pools on the blood of murdered children.”

I don't remember that but I do remember Arabs murdering, and then going all Walking Dead on Jews in Ramallah (graphic).

All the settlers did was make pancakes.

Thanks Nachum.
Zionist Union chief Isaac Herzog's spokesman [and creepy bastard] Ofer Newman... labelled Jews in Judea and Samaria as "lowly murderers" who "built swimming pools on the blood of murdered children."
The proper political response is for Bibi to say he'd never try to tell Herzog to fire Newman, because number one, he's his own man, and number two, he wouldn't do it anyway, since he probably agrees 100 percent.

He deleted *part* of his post, and “apologized” — as if that’s going to be a sincere apology.

[snip] Jewish Home MK Nissan Slomiansky tells Army Radio that Herzog’s spokesman Ofer Newman should be hospitalized or jailed over his comments against Israeli settlers. “It may be that he is a psychopath and must be hospitalized — and that’s judging him favorably,” says Slomiansky. “This man needs to sit in jail. This is insane incitement.” [/snip]

If "settlers" were in fact all murders, there would be no Arabs left in Judea or Samaria.

Oh, no. He found my recipe book: 101 Uses for Muslim, Druze and Christian Infant Blood! It was right next to my all-time favorite, How to Serve Man.
