"She said that. She said that out loud at a public event with a live audience, with no shame. Like, what was that statement? What was that? Kasparian questioned. Luckily, she received quite a bit of condemnation from other Jewish Americans, including Peter Beinart, the editor-at-large of Jewish Currents. And by the way, before I get to what he posted, I want to be very clear and I want my audience to understand [] that grotesque woman is not representative of all Jews."
"How about we live in a world where we all agree that genocide, holocausts, war crimes are bad regardless of who the victims are? Regardless of who those crimes against humanity are directed towards? Whether it's Jewish people, whether it's Israeli civilians, whether it's Palestinians, it doesn't matter. They're human beings. And that's the thing that really like struck me about this story. It's just the full-blown dehumanization of an entire population of people and they say it out loud with no shame."
Ana Kasparian forcefully condemned Sarah Hurwitz's remark that Holocaust education is confusing young people into sympathizing with weak, skinny Palestinians. Hurwitz made the remarks during a Jewish Federations of North America panel and suggested Holocaust education as anti-Semitism education is breaking down in the new media environment because social media exposes youth to Gaza carnage. The remarks prompted condemnation on social media and from Jewish Americans such as Peter Beinart. Kasparian called Hurwitz "grotesque," noted Hurwitz's former role as an Obama speechwriter, and argued that genocide and war crimes should be condemned regardless of the victims.
