Since when did we did we
take a Neo-Nazi’s advice?
On October 16, the Independent ran a Voice in which the writer related her shock at seeing Jewish Federation of Santa Barbara flags lining State Street. In response, it is necessary to refute the false information and facts the writer, Marcy Winograd, used to back up her opinions regarding supporting the federation and Israel itself.
One of the writer's most atrocious statements was, “To white supremacists like Richard Spencer, the Charlottesville Neo-Nazi leader, a self-described 'white Zionist' who wants a homeland for white people, Israel is the model for ethnic cleansing.” First of all, it is important to note that Richard Spencer is a neo-Nazi. For those who aren’t aware, Nazis wished for and continue to wish for the annihilation of the Jewish people . According to the Washington Post, Spencer, at the very Charlottesville rally the writer mentions, “mocked Charlottesville’s Jewish mayor, Mike Signer. 'Little Mayor Signer — "See-ner" — how do you pronounce this little creep’s name?' Spencer asked. The crowd responded by chanting, 'Jew, Jew, Jew.'" So, one would have to go through very strange mental acrobatics to state that Spencer somehow admires Israel, the country created in the homeland of the Jewish people.
