The video posted below shows the Jew-hating Mr. Cenk Uygur explode in an orgy of anti-Israel ravings. Mr. Uygur was born in Istanbul in 1970. Today, he is an attorney, commentator, media host and co-creator of The Young Turks, a left-wing sociopolitical news and commentary program with a slippery foothold on the truth.
During his diatribe overflowing with lies and blatant misrepresentations Mr. Uygur barely omitted one anti-Israel or Jew-hating trope. What he did omit though was that within 24 hours of Israel being reconstituted in 1948 she was attacked by 4 Arab/Muslim countries. Outnumbered and out-gunned Israel went on to defeat those armies and establish a country that has become a world leader in science, medicine, technical innovation, education and agriculture while under almost constant terror attacks and wars declared on her by Egypt and Jordan. She has hardly experienced a year of peace.
In retrospect this was to be expected when one considers that the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Ami al-Husseini, spent most of WWII in Berlin frisking with Hitler and his Nazis while recruiting Muslims to fight in the Waffen SS. Conveniently, Mr. Uygur has forgotten this along with the fact that the leadership of Hamas preferred to spend its billions of dollars in international aid building a sophisticated network of tunnels throughout the Gaza Strip longer than the London Underground and syphoning off enough of that aid into their own coffers making themselves multi-millionaires living in luxury as guests of the Emir of Qatar.
Mr. Uygur's hysterical rant contained no explanation as to why for hundreds of years many thousands of Jews were murdered by Muslims prior to Israel's reconstitution in 1948. The answer to this lies in their stubborn belief that they are in possession of a celestial warrant that gives them permission to commit any atrocity against the Jews in particular and the rest of us infidels in general. Indeed, this permission is contained in Islam's title deed, the Koran itself. Mr. Uygur has some reading to catch up on including the Hamas Charter written in 1988 and revised in 2017 containing its furious genocidal intentions towards Israel and Jews everywhere.
So obsessed with Israel's alleged mistreatment of Muslims and the Arab Palestinians together with the fawning support of Israel he mistakenly attributes to the media, two assertions that couldn't possibly be made without the benefit of alcohol, Mr. Uygur failed to acknowledge that around 2 million Arab Palestinians live in Israel with full Israeli citizenship enjoying religious, political, social and sexual freedoms that are denied them in Arab/Muslim countries.
Mr. Uygur makes no reference to the hundred thousand or so Muslims killed by the regime of Bashar al-Assad in Syria, the approximate 325,000 Yemeni Muslims killed by their own people in a brutal civil war or the thousands of Christians massacred by Muslims throughout the African continent in recent years. Only Israel's defense of herself in a war she did not want and did not start comes under his biased scrutiny.
If it were not for double standards Mr. Uygur wouldn’t have any standards at all. Neither Mr. Uygur nor anyone else as far as I can tell is out marching and protesting about those conflicts and their attendant butchery. This suggests that he and his fellow travelers are either determined Jew-haters or they have used their time as an opportunity to catch up on some sleep. There is no genocide of civilians going on in Gaza. If Israel were not dedicated to minimizing civilian casualties the war would have ended about midnight on October 8th.
