The New York Times’s latest error of judgment: this anti-Semitic cartoon
The Spectator US ^ | 27 Apr 2019 | Dominic Green

Posted on 04/27/2019 8:20:11 PM PDT by Rummyfan

Easter worshippers who opened Thursday’s copy of the International Edition of the New York Times were treated to a cartoon to warm the cockles of white supremacists, Islamists and lovers of ‘Edelweiss’ everywhere. The cartoon, apparently by a Portuguese artist named Antonio Antunes Moreira of Espresso, depicted a blind Donald Trump, resplendent in the kippah he wears at all times except when the cameras are near, being led by Benjamin Netanyahu in the form of a sausage dog, wearing the Star of David dog collar that all sausage dogs wear.

Some people published something, and now all those over-sensitive Jews are blaming the entire New York Times for it. How thin-skinned they are. I mean, it’s not like this cartoon says that a tiny country on the other side of the world controls the president of the most powerful country in the world.

It’s not like this cartoon implies this alleged manipulation is religious in inspiration, hence the kippah and the Star of David necklace, as if that might be the source of the malignant and magical power that this tiny people exerts over global politics.

How about the hypocrite advertisers, the phony posterers, pull their advertising because of this outrageous image? Didn’t think so.

I thought Julius Streicher was executed after WWII, but apparently he survived and is being published in the NYT.

It wasn’t an error, it was a revelation. It’s who/what they are.

I don’t know why that made me laugh.

Good deadpan humor there :)

Great counterattack by the Spectator. I just subscribed to them and I shared their article on Twitter.

They ought to. If nothing else proves the NYT is an out-of-touch, fake-news dinosaur, this should.

But you’re right. They won’t. “No, not the Times! This can’t be true! It must be some double-secret psychologiical-reverse art-piece-in-comic-form that distills the gestalt of the zeitgeist with biting wit and satire. Hating Trump, Netanyahu, and Israel generally doesn’t enter into the equation at all...does it???”

The New York Times’s latest error of judgment: this anti-Semitic cartoon

Blatant and gross anti-Semitism isn't an "error of judgment", it's a deliberate choice.

This is something you would see in a German paper leading up to and including ww2. Just wow. I bet the democrat party supports this 110%.

An error in judgment implies that they didn’t realize what they were doing. Quite the opposite, they knew exactly what they were doing. They just didn’t expect to be called on it.

ALWAYS remember with liberals, the guilt is not in the doing, it’s in the getting caught. That is the foundation of the “moral” structure of liberalism.

There won’t be a comparative demonstration of why this kind of imagery is so obnoxious, because the Times is histrionically sensitive to giving offense to any group except the groups that it identifies as objects of contempt: Republicans, white Southerners, Easter worshippers, people who like Brexit, and ‘Zionists’, a euphemism which one recent survey counted as 92 percent of American Jews.

Dominic Green understands the vile New York Times...
