Major Jewish Group Demands ABC Cancel ‘Quantico’ for ‘Vicious Defamation of Jews, Israel and the
lgemeiner Journal ^ | 3/7/16 | Ruthie Blum

A major Jewish group is gathering signatures for a petition against ABC to cancel the series Quantico, amid allegations of anti-Israel and antisemitic content.

The Zionist Organization of America has been protesting what it considers the “blatant, vicious defamation of Jews, Israel and the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), promoting ugly lies against the Jewish people and the Jewish state” on the TV thriller about a group of FBI recruits training to become special agents.

In a statement released on Friday, ZOA President Morton A. Klein and Director of Special Projects Liz Berney referred to a previous complaint they had lodged with ABC – on October 30 – and what they considered an “unhelpful letter” from the network, which “failed to address Quantico’s factual anti-Semitic errors.”

Since then, they wrote, rather than doing something to rectify the situation,

Quantico intensified its anti-Semitism and its vicious portrayals of the IDF as “war criminals” when in fact, the IDF is the world’s most moral army.

Quantico also escalated its practice of mocking and portraying Jews as sniveling, untrustworthy, duplicitous, disloyal, war criminals, violent, unable to see the “greater good,” people who “follow orders” that are wrong; terrorism-plotters and ugly bomb-makers. Quantico also makes absurd “Islamaphobia” claims; portrays Muslims as moral and beautiful; glorifies a Muslim Imam who defies the FBI; and glorifies Arab terrorists and Palestinian-Arab “resistance” (a euphemism for Palestinian-Arab attacks on Jews).

They made the FBI to be a diverse group of women and men with perfect demographics including homosexuals included. All gorgeous looking naturally.

It’s a liberals idea if what the FBI ought to be.

Agree completely. Saw the first episode and it looked like a typical liberal version of reality. In short, a pile of p.c. crap.

Guess you haven’t seen “Madam Secretary” yet. What a POS that is. Totally unrealistic and impossible for her to do what she does weekly as SecState. As if the whole Department is made up of and run by the 5 or so people surrounding her.

What is super sick is his mother’s family are Jews and he is an orthodox Jew. Talk about a severe self hating Jew.

At least 78% of them will bow before Obama as he destroys Israel.

How many anti-Israel TV shows are on right now?

I think companies are too afraid of the ZOA, ADL, and SPLC to say anything bad about Israel.

It’s politically incorrect to criticize Israel. Quantico is politically incorrect.

If you want them to cancel the show, just turn the channel. Bad ratings = cancellation

This complaint will do nothing but cause people to tune in to see what all the hubbub is about.
