Waid hinted contempt for Israel a few months ago

Back in March/April, the cartoonist Steve Murray (Chip Zdarsky) took a vacation to Israel, and while tweeting about it, Mark Waid made some rather snide comments, such as:

Even more eyebrow raising, however, was the following:

Something pretty fishy about his putting Israel in quotation marks. Was Waid implying he doesn't recognize the validity of Israel? Because if that's what he was doing, he soaked up his reputation a bit more. Zdarksy didn't even seem to try and tell him he was running the gauntlet of embarrassing them, one more sad screw up.

The managers of the store he visited seemed to realize Waid was stooping pretty low, so they said:

Waid may have finally quit his galling little act after this, but signs still remain he's got a viewpoint that's very regrettable. And if that's so, he's only added another head-shaker to his past attitude of the 21st century.

Labels: , ,

It looks like what Waid was questioning was whether Murray was actually in Israel. He seemed to think that the trip was a hoax.

That said, I don't doubt that Waid is anti-Israel, and probably supports BDS.

Leftists hate Israel because the Jews took a wasteland and worked to build a civilized, democratic country with a high standard of living. If "Palestine" had been a garden spot, and the Israelis had turned it into a slum (as the "Palestinian" Arabs have done with Gaza, and as the Democrats have done with Chicago, Detroit, New Orleans, and Philadelphia), then every beatnik intellectual in New York and every limousine liberal in Malibu would be a militant Zionist.

Leftists hate cultures (Jewish, Asian) that encourage a work ethic and self-reliance. They want an ever-expanding poor class, totally dependent on the government dole.

Not like Rightists are doing a better job at the moment...
