Nik Zecevic and Margaret Howell | (TheLipTV News Video) |- –
“A racist joke about President Obama posted on Twitter by Judy Shalom Nir-Mozes, the wife of Israeli interior minister Silvan Shalom, sparked international outrage on social media on Sunday. The joke, which read, “Do you know what Obama coffee is? Black and weak,” was quickly deleted after it was posted and was followed by an apology from Mozes. We discuss the offensive message on the Lip News with Nik Zecevic and Margaret Howell.”
TheLipTV: “Racist Obama Joke Tweeted by Israeli Politician’s Wife”
Ms. Shalom Nir-Mozes has a history of racist remarks on social media. In 2012 during an Israeli attack on Gaza, she said, “It’s time even for the passive residents of Gaza to suffer the way the residents of the south are suffering.”
That is, she advocated a war crime, making non-combatants “suffer.”
She was uninvited from UNICEF for these posts at Facebook:
“How is it possible to make peace with people whose children are fed hatred towards Israel from the moment they are born? How is it possible to make peace with people who have it as part of their DNA to hate us? I am willing to make real peace at any price. The problem is that there is no partner. I wish I was wrong.”
“Bibi [Netanyahu, Israeli Prime Minister], is right, I liked when he said ‘They shoot at our children and hide behind their children,’ the miserable losers. Bad enough they ruin our kids’ childhoods, I don’t understand how parents of children in Gaza allow those murderers to destroy their children.”
She additionally spoke out against a ceasefire saying “I really hope Bibi will not surrender to the pressures of our enemies and their lobby and will continue the operation until the murder of the last terrorist in Gaza. It is time that life in the [Israeli] south will start to be normal.”
my impression,
folks (adults) who live in S’derot,
the Israeli settlement closest to Gaza,
are paid $ 30 K per year to live there.
Housing, which is hardened like a military bunker, is free.
Utilities are free. Health care is free.
Most adults have jobs, but that isn’t really necessary.
It appears that the Israeli government pays for them to act as targets for un-aimed rockets.
why ?
anyways,
these are the people who this woman is concerned about ensuring they have a normal life.
They live to aggravate the people in the Gaza prison, and she wants to protect them from the consequences of that choice.
.
Any reference on how the adults in S’derot are paid $ 30,000 yearly to live there ?
It is critically important to publicize such actions by the Israeli state.
The Sderot municipality has been on the verge of bankruptcy due to the ongoing rocket attacks from Gaza.
The Israeli government, however, does not want to allow a precedent of Israel withdrawing from its own territory and have pumped in large amounts of funding to ensure that Sderot remain in Israeli hands; Jewish-American charitable organizations have likewise made large donations to assist the residents of Sderot.

How can someone be so ignorant? Those posts assume that people are evil and born hating and have no legitimate cause for grievances. She has to get out of her bubble, as do so many Israelis.
