This new VM just came into my office. @IlhanMN, this is just another day in my world as an American Jew in Congress. Would love to know what part of this hate filled, anti-Semitic rant you disagree with? I disagree with all of it. Do you? pic.twitter.com/4WoJqiATCf

Sad
Listening to this message is unbelievably sad. The hatred seeps through every syllable. Yet the hypocrisy seeps through as well. First he repeats lie after lie calling Jews “killers”, that we killed and enslaved black people, as well as the “palestinian Arabs”. Then he then complains that the Jews complain about Hitler and antisemitism. Yet he ends his message saying too bad Hitler didn’t finish the job.
How more blantant a Jew hater can one be? He has been brainwashed to believe horrific lies about the Jewish people yet complain that Hitler didn’t finish the work in murdering all of us.
Antisemitism has always existed, sometimes with much less impact on our lives than other times. But the vitriol we are witnessing today is deeply troubling. More and more people are proud to say it out loud in public because they see that antisemitism has been given legitimacy by a number of prominent Democratic politicians, including some of the newest members of the house.
Yes, antisemitism exists on both the right and on the left. However, on the far right it is vilified and unacceptable by the mainstream Republican party. On the left however, it is accepted and not deemed unacceptable. This is extremely troubling and means that the antisemitism from the left is much more dangerous, because the mainstream left is not doing anything to stop it from growing.
THIS vile NAZI uses pro Palestinian tactics as cover for his blatant antisemitism. So awful. What a shame he is anonymous. He should be named & shamed. And where in the world does he get idea Jews kill black people & children?? Only an evil person could leave a message like this.
