    Ann Coulter Rips GOP Candidates Playing to ‘Fu–ing Jews,’ Israeli Media Shreds Her ‘Anti-Semitism’

    Ann Coulter offered her typical blustery two cents about the GOP presidential debate on Thursday, going as far to call out candidates for playing to all the “fu–ing Jews” — and generating an almost immediate social-media backlash.

    How many f—ing Jews do these people think there are in the United States?

    – Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 17, 2015

    Coulter then unleashed a flurry of tweets railing at the GOP candidates for overemphasizing Israel.

    Maybe it’s to suck up to the Evangelicals. — Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 17, 2015


    Christie also talks @ Israel in response to the question: What will AMERICA look like after you are president?

    How to get applause from GOP donors: 1) Pledge to start a war 2) Talk about job creators 3) Denounce abortion 4) Cite Reagan 5) Cite Israel. — Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 17, 2015

     

    U weren’t following tweets. About pandering on RR Israel prolife. Last Q was @ AMERICA & 4 Reps talk @ Israel AGAIN! https://t.co/lZ0ZUtVdSf — Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 17, 2015


    All GOPs = prolife, pro-Reagan, pro-Israel. Pandering on all 3 tonight was EPIC. https://t.co/lZ0ZUtVdSf

    – Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 17, 2015


    How about Huckabee, Rubio, Kasich etc talk about Israel’s sturdy and effective border fence? https://t.co/1WSyFQN0N1 — Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 17, 2015


    I like the Jews, I like fetuses, I like Reagan. Didn’t need to hear applause lines about them all night. https://t.co/4guFehK0CM

    Popular conservative radio host Mark Levin responded to Coulter on Thursday.

    Israeli media reacted as well, condemning Coulter’s attacks. Haaretz, a left-leaning paper, called Coulter arguably anti-Semitic.

    “Controversial conservative pundit Ann Coulter posted a series of arguably anti-Semitic tweets at the tail end of Wednesday night’s Republican debate, accusing the candidates of pandering to Jewish voters, including one posing the hypothetical question of: ‘How many f—ing Jews do these people think there are in the United States?'” the paper noted.

    The Jerusalem Post also suggested that Coulter’s tweets hinted at anti-Semitism: “Ann Coulter, a controversial conservative political commentator, posted a series of what could be viewed as anti-Semitic tweets during the Republican presidential national debate on Wednesday night. “

    Coulter, a religious Christian, was widely criticized, including from the group Christians United for Israel.

    “Ann Coulter’s tweets this evening concerning Israel were completely inappropriate,” spokesperson Ari Morgenstern said. “The US-Israel relationship is both a moral and strategic imperative. There are tens of millions of Christians in this country who stand with the Jewish state.”

    The Anti-Defamation League also chimed in, calling Coulter’s comments “ugly, spiteful and borderline anti-Semitic.”

    “While most of America has rightly tuned out Ann Coulter’s hyperbolic and hateful rhetoric, her irresponsible tweets during the Republican presidential candidate’s debate are truly a new low and must be called out,” ADL Director Jonathan A. Greenblatt said.

    One thing is for sure —  Coulter isn’t likely to get an invitation to Prime Minister Netanyahu’s next Shabbat dinner.
