This is a blog I never thought I would write.
Roseanne Barr – the ancestrally Jewish comedian who has spent much of her public life showing little other than disdain for Israel and Jews – has become transformed into what, for all the world, appears to be a sincere advocate for both.
Please watch this video of Ms. Barr’s speech to Ynet’s and Yedioth Ahronoth’s anti-Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) conference, and see for yourself. If you know anything at all about Ms. Barr’s past comments and attempts at “humor”, it will be a jaw-dropping experience:
I was surprised by this. I would never have believed it if I hadn’t seen and heard it myself. Although I have found one point to disagree with, She says that BDS is a right-wing cause.
free – I’ll have to listen again. I didn’t catch that….and suspect that – given how out of context it would be relative to her message, if she said it, she misspoke.
