Now let’s compare this to a story in 2020 involving Todd Muller. What did Todd Muller do? Did he endorse rape and murder? Did he praise torture and kidnapping as justified? No, he had some US political memorabilia in his office including a Trump MAGA cap (alongside a Hilary Clinton badge).
This resulted In an avalanche of stories, running for several days. The media went out to groups such as the Islamic Women’s Council who condemned it. Yes they asked the IWC for their views on someone having a MAGA hat in their office, yet don’t approach the Jewish Council over an MP endorsing the murder, rape, torture and kidnapping of Jews.
They quoted political expert Dr Siouxsie Wiles on why what Muller did was reprehensible. They also quoted neutral academic Shane te Pou. They wrote columns on it. They did a couple of dozen stories, until finally Muller agreed to hide the hat from view. They followed up with articles on how the hat is a symbol of racism and white supremacy. They got comments from the Race Relations Commissioner.
So consider all that coverage over a hat, and compare that to the lack of coverage of an MP who claims murder, rape, torture and kidnapping was justified – and is an official spokesperson for the party on these issues.

David great post highlighting the far left MP's and medias far left insidious views and bias in supporting terrorists.
You have to understand that each time you bring these MSM biased reports to light more and more people see hear and understand the truth.
The backlash against the far left is here it's gaining much momentum thanks to great people such as yourself by highlighting truth and reality. The left are in real strife because of it.
Again, thanks.
David Farrah is free to say what he likes (unlike Labour’s Associate Foreign Affairs Spokesperson, apparently), but let's be clear: Farrah is upset because, as a Jew, he has the arrogant expectation, so prevalent among his people, that the worst thought crime in the world is not feeling sympathy for Jews. They cannot countenance the idea that a non-Jew doesn't share the sense of Jewish superiority, self-importance and uniqueness they assign to themselves.
Meanwhile, Farrah blogs articles mocking and laughing at the thousands of Lebanese blown up by recent Israeli terrorist activity.
The problem Farrah has is not the 1,000 dead per se, its that they were Jews, and because the lives of Jews are, they say, worth infinitely more than Gentiles, the tens of thousands of Arab IDF victims since then are ignored as being completely justified - "they deserved it, because some of them killed us Jews" say the Jews.
See the underlying sentiment?
It's not that October 7th was "justified" so much as it was inevitable and easily predictable blow-back against people who tend to share Farrah's attitude towards other people.

I'm Lebanese,
get your facts straight and stop talking rubbish
