#1 Rabbi Uri Pilichowski. "Rabbi Pilichowski created the first teen pro-Israel group in the country that taught students to advocate in Congress for a stronger US-Israel relationship. His students gained a national reputation as they lobbied on THe (sic) Hill and in the White House."

Say, what do you think would happen if I started a student group to lobby the US Congress to favor a foreign country over our own? Do you think I'd get admitted to the highest levels of the government? No? Weird! I wonder why he got that to happen.

I suppose we'll never know and we shouldn't ask.

#2 Oh this just keeps getting better: https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/jewish-democratic-israel-from-the-river-to-the-sea/

"Finally, the J-street statement assumes that the future demographics in Israel would lead to an Arab majority and that given their majority, Arabs would take on Israeli citizenship and use democracy to change the Jewish nature of the state. It also assumes that Israel couldn’t creatively come up with solutions to preclude these things from happening. None of these are guaranteed outcomes. The uniqueness of Zionism is how it faces repeated existential threats and defeats them all."

This is literally the Great Replacement conspiracy theory.

#4 This is literally the Great Replacement conspiracy theory.

The Palestinians call it Jihad of the Womb, but since their women aren’t nearly as enthusiastic as planned, they’ve been lying for two decades about their birthrates. Palestinian Authority statistics were off by over a million in about 2005, and very likely double that by now.

#5 The point is that the ADL calls the exact same thing a conspiracy theory when Americans say it.

And yet, when respected rabbis say the same thing, it doesn't get censored or repressed by the ADL. Instead, it gets printed in the pages of Times of Israel. Without any context warning or fact-checking - which is standard practice for conspiracy theories.

Weird! It's like some kind of upside-down world.

#6 The Anti-Defamation League is an American organization, my dear. The Times of Israel is an Israeli newspaper. And J-Street is a Progressive group ehose primary orientation is to the Left, not to Jews or Israel. They are, quite simply, a Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions organization with an ethnic Jewish figleaf.

(In Their Own Words — the collected comments of various BDS-ers, including Norman Finkelstein, PhD)

That the ADL has recently lost its way is a separate question.
