Norwegian newspaper Aftenposten has apologized for a formulation used when describing Jared Kushner, US President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser.
On January 12th, Aftenposten wrote in an article about Kushner that “the Jew Kushner reportedly pushed for David M. Friedman as the new ambassador to Israel”.
The Norwegian Jewish society Det Mosaiske Trossamfund (DMT) took offense to the wording and asked the newspaper to issue an apology.
“It is anti-Semitic when Aftenposten journalists believe that Kushner’s Jewish identity explains why he allegedly pushed to get Friedman as ambassador. This is a coarse generalization based on the myth that Jews have a different loyalty. The accusation that Jews have a different loyalty is an accusation that is hundreds of years old,” DMT head Ervin Kohn told Norwegian news source Minerva. …

Norge is lost!
Norway is well on its way to becoming a toilet...like the rest of Europe. They have happily bent over.
So sad to see.
Norwegistan.
I’m sure the apology was just for show. Don’t worry, no Muslims were offended.
The whole world of leftists is making an absolute fool of itself, and revealing themselves to be the naziis that they constantly accuse everyone else of being.
This is DISGUSTING to the nth degree and also none of their business WHO President Trump picks to be what, in his administration!
Europeans learned nothing from the Nazi Holocaust.
OMG!
Whoever wrote, “the Jew Kushner”, and whoever edited the copy, knew EXACTLY what they were doing.
Apology not accepted.
ALVY Singer (Woody Allen)
I distinctly heard it. He muttered under
his breath, “Jew.”
ROB
You’re crazy!
ALVY
No, I’m not. We were walking off the
tennis court, and you know, he was there
and me and his wife, and he looked at her
and then they both looked at me, and under
his breath he said, “Jew.”
ROB
Alvy, you’re a total paranoid.
ALVY
Wh- How am I a paran-? Well, I pick up on
those kind o’ things. You know, I was
having lunch with some guys from NBC, so
I said ... uh, “Did you eat yet or what?”
and Tom Christie said, “No, didchoo?”
Not, did you, didchoo eat? Jew? No, not
did you eat, but Jew eat? Jew. You get it?
Jew eat?
ROB
Ah, Max, you, uh ...
ALVY
Stop calling me Max.
ROB
Why, Max? It’s a good name for you. Max,
you see conspiracies in everything.
ALVY
No, I don’t! You know, I was in a record
store. Listen to this -so I know there’s
this big tall blond crew-cutted guy and
he’s lookin’ at me in a funny way and
smiling and he’s saying, “Yes, we have a
sale this week on Wagner.” Wagner, Max,
Wagner-so I know what he’s really tryin’
to tell me very significantly Wagner.
Annie Hall :)
Are you kidding? It’s hard to find a country in Western Europe that ISN’T Anti Semitic.
Bibi is right. Israel is the only truly safe place, and the United States is when the RIGHT president is in.
I’ll never understand that hatred towards 18 million people out of 7 BILLION!!
Gee, Kushner wanting to appoint a Jew as Ambassador to Israel....imagine that!!
Great Movie.
One of my Jewish Buddies is Alvy Singer to a Tee. A total Hoot. And loves The Trump!
lol. His old movies were great. Annie Hall, Take the Money and Run, Sleeper, Love and Death, Play It Again Sam..
Then he started to take himself seriously.
I’m not Jewish, but I would pick a Jew to be ambassador to Israel, too. Is that so shocking to these numbskulls?
The racist anti-semetic Aftenposten has apologized, although it is convinced Jew bashing isn’t offensive.
Worked in Manhattan for over 20 years. It’s a cold place and CutThroat is the name of the game.
Once you start to laugh at it, it becomes much easier :)
I saw commodity traders step all over a trader having a heart attack, trying to get their orders in the pit.
Seen people just collapse and folk walk right over them.
I was on a bus once and my metrocard was empty so I offered to pay TWICE the amount of the fare if someone swiped for me with their card.
No one said a word. The driver let me stay and I said out loud “Man New Yorkers are just a bunch of no good mother ###ers” :)
