Recently, the White House’s Antisemitism Roundtable Was A Sham and Americans should oppose Biden’s anti-Israel, jew-hating appointments. The Zionist Organization of America (ZOA), widely regarded as one of the leading Jewish activists in the United States, exposes the Democrats for the who they truly are.
Months ago, President Biden nominated longtime Democrat donor Elizabeth Frawley Bagley to serve as ambassador to Brazil. At her confirmation hearing in May, she faced bipartisan condemnation for a 1998 interview in which she claimed that Democrats entertained “stupid” pro-Israel viewpoints because of “the Jewish factor” and echoed old antisemitic tropes, saying, “There is always the influence of the Jewish lobby because there is major money involved.”
The ZOA opposed her nomination and noted that Bagley was among “a long list of President Biden’s antisemitic and Israelophobic nominees and appointees,” which the organization has documented. Her nomination was tabled at the time, but now, the same week as the performative White House roundtable on antisemitism, her nomination has been returned to the Senate calendar so Senate leaders can bring it up for a vote, before the end of the year.
ZOA Director of Government Relations Dan Pollak weighs in:
The Biden administration has many staffers who hate Israel and Jews and even justify terrorism. Deputy Director of the White House Office of Legislative Affairs Reema Dodin has explained away suicide bombings including the September 11 attacks.
White House spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre has written that ‘Israel may have committed war crimes,’ and previously worked for Moveon.org, an organization that supports vicious Jew-haters Linda Sarsour, Rashida Tlaib, and Ilhan Omar, as well as the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement against Israel.
President Biden can tweet against antisemitism, but his appointments tell a different story
