(Jewish Group) As Raphael Warnock's Israel record becomes a flashpoint, Atlanta Jews call the Senate

As Raphael Warnock’s Israel record becomes a flashpoint, Atlanta Jews call the Senate candidate a friend

Almost as soon as it became clear that control of the U.S. Senate would be decided by two runoff elections in Georgia, scrutiny landed on the Israel record of Raphael Warnock, the Democrat seeking to unseat Republican Sen. Kelly Loeffler.

“Raphael Warnock signed letter likening West Bank to apartheid South Africa,” Jewish Insider reported Thursday.

The publication followed up with another story this week saying that Warnock, a Black pastor who leads the church helmed by the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. until his assassination in 1968, “blasted Israel” in a 2018 sermon.

On Monday, Loeffler amplified that sermon on Twitter, accusing Warnock of having “a long history of anti-Israel extremism.”

The irony, I guess, is that the one trying to use this against him, Loeffler, hangs out with Q-Anon nutjobs, including one who was just elected!! Those people are anti-Semites!

zero critical thinking skills. Good grief, they are really scraping the barrel if this is supposed to be damaging. But they will cherry pick the parts they want to use for propaganda.
