Showing Original Post only (View all)Ann Coulter Accuses Republican Candidates of Pandering to 'F---ing Jews' [View all]
Controversial pundit tweets 'how many f---ing Jews do these people think there are in the United States?' after several candidates in Republican debate stress improved U.S. ties with Israel.Controversial conservative pundit Ann Coulter posted a series of arguably anti-Semitic tweets at the tail end of Wednesday night's Republican debate, accusing the candidates of pandering to Jewish voters, including one posing the hypothetical question of: "How many f---ing Jews do these people think there are in the United States?"
Coulter, who has 660 thousand twitter followers, was reacting to the frequent mentions of Israel made by participants in the second televised Republican debate held Wednesday at the Ronald Reagan Library in California.
She first tweeted criticism of former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, Florida Senator Marco Rubio and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie's support for Israel when answering the question "What will AMERICA [emphasis her's] look like after you are president?", asking "How many f---ing Jews do these people think there are in the United States? She also wrote: Good Grief, Huckabee is running for prime minister of Israel.
Coulter, who has expressed support for the candidacy of Donald Trump, then proceeded to posit that the candidates may just be trying to "suck up to the Evangelicals."

OP
Israeli lives in Israel...therefore, she knows what right-wing Israeli politicians are like.

Which is why supporters of Israel should never align themselves with "Christian Zionists".

I know that. I was responding to Mosby, who seems to be sticking up for right-wingers here

Mondoweiss argued that she was not attacking Jews but rather making a valid point.

Coulter’s point is that Republicans pander on Israel to win donors, not voters (Mondoweiss)

I think I understand why there's reluctance to call Mondoweiss out for anything...

I went back and read the article again, and my reaction is pretty much the same as the first time.
