You keep hearing from me mentioning your party's ties to Nazis and Nazi rhetoric. I would shut up if it did not stop. This time, Musk said Hitler didn't murder the Jews. My family was killed by Nazis. The Jews in your party are ok with this? You're ok with his Nazi salutes. You are ok with his liking Holocaust denying posts? If I was never part of any group and I sat down next to a Nazi, I would leave that group. There is nothing any group can give me that would allow myself to sit with a Nazi You guys going to Bannon's talk in Colorado? The guy who gave a Nazi salute at CPAC? You should be deeply ashamed. If some Nazi, like the insurrectionist with the Hitler mustache that said "Hitler didn't finish the job" who Trump pardoned, who your party gave an award to, feels emboldened to hurt any Jews, it would not be Trump's fault, it would be YOUR fault. Shame on you. Please switch religions. You are not a Jew

NOTE: I called the number provided and left a message that was nearly identical to what immediately follows.

Deep, deep apologies, I did not know that Hamas was the most clever organization on the planet and could highjack my cable when I was watching the inauguration , digitally mess up my tv to show me Musk doing the Nazi salute TWICE?
I am stunned that this Hamas was able to make this fake picture, too
I am also stunned that Hamas was able to digitally alter Bannon into doing the Nazi salute as well
I am also stunned that Hamas was able to highjack Musk's twitter and made him like the tweet that Hitler did not kill the Jews. Not only that, Hamas obviously funds this jewish newspaper, and made them spread the lies of hamas
This one confuses me, how did Hamas make up this guy:
I would think that maybe they just digitally altered it or something, but it turns out this Hitler wannabe, a convicted insurrectionist, was given an award by your party, and honored at Trump's resort. Did Hamas digitally put in that Hitler mustache? Did Hamas fool your party into thinking that it was not a Hitler mustache.
obviously, hamas infiltrated Israeli newspapers too
so, I am amazed at Hamas ability to make this stuff up, stuff that the israeli newspapers covered, that almost everyone else covered as well.
Although, be honest, you know damn well that hamas had nothing to do with the nazi salutes, honoring of nazis, pardoning of nazis, retweeting of nazis, etc. you know damn well what you saw with your own eyes. I do not want you to respond. You have shown us all that you are ok with nazis with this dumb ass lie about hamas fooling us about what we saw with our own eyes. you are not an honest person. you likely are not even jewish, because what kind of jew can watch a guy do a nazi salute and then support him after? no real jew

Yeah. It's my bad for not realizing the Hamas was able to do something to my eyes and make my see Bannon doing a Nazi salute, see the court documents where his wife said Jews were bad, see Musk do a Nazi salute, twice, that Hamas was able to hack Musk's own Twitter account and made him like Holocaust denier posts and say Hitler didn't kill Jews, see a Hitler mustache on an insurrectionist that your party honored and gave an award to at Trump's resort, and make my eyes see Nazis with tiki torches chant "Heil Trump! Jews will not replace us! Heil Trump!"
I'm totally floored that Hamas was able to do that to my own eyes. I guess none of that happened.
I guess I can now vote Republican now since my rule of not being a part of any group that had Nazis in them will never get my vote or my support.
Hamas is amazing at what they do. Evil, but amazing.

And don't call me again, you creepy insurrectionist traitor that is ok with giving awards to Nazis with Hitler mustaches. I'll never talk to anyone that is ok with pardoning and giving awards to someone with a Hitler mustache that says "Hitler didn't finish the job"
Since you obviously have Nazis in your party, ever sit down next to one at a Trump rally? Hang out with the Republicans who said "Jews will not replace us", or "Hitler didn't finish the job" or "Hitler didn't kill the Jews" or "I don't want my kids to go to school with Jews"?
No need to respond, it's rhetorical. I don't care to hear back because you're not honest. Just like with your pictures of the Dems doing the Nazi salute. You know damn well that they didn't put a fist to their chest and do that Nazi salute. Capturing them with their arms up is not the same and you know it.
I know that you have to do that in order to make yourself feel better for seeing Nazi salutes, see your party give an award to a Hitler mustache guy, see your fellow Republicans chant Heil Trump, see a Republican congressman bring a Holocaust denier as his guest to the State of the Union, see your one of your leader posting pro Hitler and Holocaust denying posts.

You are a sick person, beyond help.
You contacted me first. You are the instigator and you foment violence and hate. Look in a mirror and you will see the one who brings on baseless hatred at the expense of humanity and in defiance of the Almighty.
Avoda Zara can be for a political party and TDS is only a symptom of a greater curse.
May you find comfort and Tishuvah some day before you find yourself confronted by the One who will give you answers face-to-face.

See, you'll never understand. I contacted your organization to stop the hate and potential violence. Of all people, Jews should not be in an organization that has people doing Nazi salutes, retweeting Nazi propaganda, has Nazis chanting Heil Trump, Jews will not replace us, and pardoning violent Nazis that beat cops.
YOU are making Nazis feel more comfortable. That's why I've said in my emails that I hope your acceptance of Nazis in your party, and our government, might make Jews in danger. You are risking the lives of Jews. Nazis have become more vocal and harassed more Jews since Trump first became president. Why do you think Nazis chant Trump's name? It's because your party and you have made them feel more comfortable.
Denounce your party's acceptance of Nazis in your party, denounce the Nazi salutes, speak up when you see your party give an award to a violent Hitler wannabe with a Hitler mustache, speak up when you see people in your party say Hitler didn't kill Jews. You don't.
Like I said before, I pray that your complancey to Nazis in your party, and your government does not lead to suffering of Jews. I'm anti violence, anti Nazi and anti violent insurrection. Don't say I'm promoting violence, I'm trying for the opposite. I'm trying to get Jews in the Republican party to speak out against the Nazis in their party.
It's obvious that you're a lost case, as your laughable Hamas crazy talk or your acceptance of Nazi salutes because someone screen shotted Warren waving to the crowd, but at the right time, it looks like a Nazi salute, or Obama using hand gestures and then screen shotting it when it looks like a Nazi salute, compared to, you know, you saw it live, a Nazi salute, not once but twice ( even Republicans knew it was a Nazi salute cause they said he has Asperger's and was throwing his heart out, sounds like one of your crazy Q theories)
Speak out against Nazis in your party. Don't stand for it. Generations of Jews here in our country are at stake.

Also, you do understand how it's laughable for someone like me to here a person, like you, lecture anyone on violence knowing that you are in the party that had a violent insurrection and YOU voted for this:
Trump’s Bedminster club hosted an alleged Nazi sympathizer who stormed the Capitol
Trump’s Bedminster club hosted an alleged Nazi sympathizer who stormed the Capitol
At two events, Donald Trump’s New Jersey golf club hosted a convicted Jan. 6 rioter known for extreme antisemitic and racist comments, whom prosecutors described as a ‘white supremacist.’
You do understand how I laugh at anyone who says others are formenting violence when they supported violence, called violent people heroes, and supported violent people being pardoned, especially pardoning violent Nazis.
Look at that guy. You're in the party that called that violent Nazi a hero, gave that Nazi an award and YOU voted for Trump knowing that Trump would pardon that Nazi. Look at him. You might sit next to him at your next Trump rally.
I never will. I'm not like you. I'm anti violence and anti Nazi. Saying TDS will never take away the FACT that you voted to give that violent Nazi a pardon and an award.

Your rants are nonsense and if you don't know it, you are part of the problem.
Your friends are responsible for funding and supporting Iran Hamas and all of the murderous MS-13 and others who've come to our country to destroy it. You're wasting your time wallowing in propaganda and not even choosing to explore the other side. It is your loss and your problem not mine. My organization has been around a heck of a long time and the more I learn about Torah the more I understand how people who replace government with G-d can be so easily misled.
You are absolutely positively on the wrong end of this debate and the consequences are detrimental to your nishama. I'm very sorry that you continue this rant. It is unconscionable that you would seek such a destructive path may your soul be rescued in the world to come.

Dumb rocks understand an "indictment" is an accusation. Lets try this again... fascists tell people they must stay at home or be arrested for wakling outdoors without a mask, fascists create an agency with the purpose of censoring speech they do not agree with, fascists shut down churches and synagogues based on a premise that it is for the "greater good", fascists demand only authorized persons are allowed to defend themselves against criminals, fascists make news services report what they are told to and to ignore revisions to bad news like jobs lost and high inflation.
Your barfing up echo chamber "facts" is another indication of the hate you feel the need to foment. Not one single prosecution from January includes a gun and the death of Ashli Babbit and Roseanne Boyland were the fault of the Government Employees who were poorly trained and working for Nancy Pelosi.
Look it up, open your eyes, Hashem has a plan and you might want to embrace something other than conjecture.

We've always have had bad presidents. I'm not even a Democrat. I often vote third party.
But YOU and YOUR party did this.
Take another look at who you might sit next to at your next Trump rally. I hope your cheap de-flation goods and not wearing a mask makes you feel better when you high five this guy. Look into his eyes. He wants you and your Jewish family dead. Your party, on the other hand, and your president thinks he's hero who deserves awards.

🚨 *PRESIDENT TRUMP BACKS NETANYAHU’S WAR EFFORT, DEPLOYS BOMBERS AND CARRIERS TO DEFEND ISRAEL; ISRAELI FIGHTER JETS CONDUCT OVER 35 AIRSTRIKES IN LESS THAN 20 MINUTES, OPERATIONS ONGOING*
🇺🇸 The U.S. President's Office confirmed: "President Trump supported Netanyahu's return to war and sent bombers and aircraft carriers to defend the State of Israel."
💥 Israeli fighter jets have carried out more than 35 airstrikes in under 20 minutes, with operations still ongoing. The strikes are targeting strategic locations as part of ongoing military efforts.
♦️ Defense Minister Yisrael Katz ordered the IDF to prepare a surprise aerial offensive. Dozens of manned and unmanned aircraft are striking multiple locations across Gaza, targeting refreshed Hamas warehouses, terrorist caches, and infrastructure.
❗️ The IDF believes Hamas lacks the capacity for heavy rocket barrages but remains prepared for renewed fire. The Iron Dome system has been placed on full alert in recent days.
⚠️ Senior Israeli political official told Motti Kastel on Channel 14: "Tonight was not a one-off. This is a move that will intensify over the coming days and weeks."
⭕ Reports indicate over 100 killed in Gaza so far, including senior Hamas leaders. Al-Awda Hospital reports 70 injuries in the last 30 minutes. Al Jazeera states 34 people have been killed and dozens wounded in Israeli airstrikes.
