(JANUARY 31, 2022 / FRONTPAGEMAG) After the Hamas kidnapping and murder of three Israeli Jewish teens, resulting in Israeli forces aggressively pursuing the Islamic terrorist group over the horrifying atrocity, Tema Smith retweeted and praised an article titled, "There Are No Good Guys In The Gaza-Israel Conflict".
The article, among other things, claimed that, "Hamas — and the Palestinians as a whole — have desperately real and legitimate grievances against Israel."
She also retweeted another piece urging Jews to, “repent for Gaza’s dead.”
“Here’s the thing: Jews *have* to be ok with Palestinians *explaining* why some turn to terrorism,” Tema Smith insisted two years ago.
Now, the ADL has chosen Tema Smith as its Director of Jewish Outreach. As a Jewish activist on Twitter quipped, “Whom do the Jews hire as Director of Outreach to the ADL?”
It’s a valid question since Smith, in her own words, has said of her role, “I educate the Jewish community on race and racism as a speaker and writer.”
Rather than educating anyone about the threat of antisemitism, she tells Jews they’re racists.
The ADL’s idea of “Jewish Outreach” is an identity politics hire who spends her time castigating Jews for opposing critical race theory and intersectionality because of its inherent antisemitism.
In an op-ed for the extremist Forward site, Tema Smith argued that black antisemitism didn't really exist because "antisemitism in the black community is shown to be the symptom of the structures of racism in the United States". Last year, she attacked Jewish institutions that "platform speakers who call Critical Race Theory and antiracism inherently antisemitic."
