    How many other government’s representatives have done this? I’ve never heard of any. (Maybe I’ve missed them, it’s possible)

      And Holy Shit, look at the top results… Is that Obama I see? Oh wow… And a bunch of other people too? Shiiiiiit. It’s almost like there’s more nuance to the issue than some hastily thrown together tweet taking shit out of context.

      This would be hilarious if I didn’t think you were a registered voter who thinks they are “informed” when they can’t even do a basic search. Ffs, I don’t even know the name of the damn wall, I just guessed. Now I know it’s the Western Wall, and can even learn more about it, because I did 5 seconds of research.

      Media literacy in this country is dead.

      Edit: alright, fuck it, in my haste I didn’t see you said other countries. My bad there. But I’m leaving all of this, because…

      …STILL APPLIES. It’s not that hard. Seriously.

            Yes?

            Well apparently there aren’t really any significant numbers that are pretending to be jewish for some reason. I suppose that when you’re not a US politician, people at home would just think you’re a weirdo.

              squints can you move those goal posts a little closer? They’re almost out of the park how far you moved them to not have to admit that you just didn’t know that other countries do the same thing with the western wall.

                I dunno, I can still see the goalposts. I think he needs to move them again…

              “pretending to be Jewish”… Ummm they’re not doing that so another lie spread I guess.
