Roseanne Barr at the Magnes in Berkeley

Roseanne Barr (yes, that Roseanne Barr) will be appearing at the Magnes Museum in Berkeley, Feb 17, speaking about "Israel, the Jews and me"


Roseanne Barr has taken to social media to advocate for Israel, and to call out the hypocrisy of groups such as Jewish Voice for Peace.

From her blog:

Letter to the Erev Rav who know nothing about Judaism whatsoever, and who lead the attack on the Jewish People for selfish reasons, by lying to the Gentile World:

REALLY? You are aligning more and more with people who call Jews monsters to be destroyed after 2000 years of exile witch-burnings, Inquisition, Pogrom and Holocaust inflicted on their ‘chosen’ targets, the Jewish people? Really?
You feel it is moral to express your sympathy for those who occupy all but a sliver of the middle east, those who stone women to death execute gays and rape little children, and GET AWAY with doing it, because child ‘marriage’ (polygamist pedophile cults) have a Priest class which absolves all pedophiles of criminal action against innocents. You’re that far gone? Really? You don’t ‘choose’ to see that condemning the Jewish people as a CLASS is a racist thing to do, though you also spout Marxist rhetoric regarding class? REALLY?

You believe that making Judaism illegal in every Arab Country is OK? Really? You ignore the Jewish Nakba-800 thousand expelled Jews in the middle east FORCED to move to Israel, since 1948-by violence and hatred, their wealth stolen? You scream and yell that there should be no harbor or rest for any of them inside a Jewish State, or anywhere else on earth? REALLY? You ignore the FACT that the Arab world did this to Jews AFTER AUSHWITZ? You ignore the FACT that those with whom you agree are now taunting Holocaust Survivors still alive in the world, and calling them Nazis? REALLY?

You leave me no choice then, but to assess your moral indignation as meaningless lawless revolting and vile.  I laugh in astonishment at what hypocrites and naked bigots you are. Therefore, I hereby exclude you from any relevant discussions about Truth Justice Equality or human decency because you have forfeited the right to be included in any of those discussions.

well that's great that Barr has become an advocate for Israel but it should be noted that she ran on a ticket with cindy sheehan for the 2012 presidential election. i'm not kidding i still have a scan of my voting card.

True, she apparently aligned herself with Sheehan, but it is possible, she's learned a few things for the better since then.
