In a Sunday MSNBC interview, Israel’s Ambassador to the U.S., Ron Dermer, said that “radical left” college students are also to blame for the spike in anti-Semitism in the United States, Raw Story reports.
Dermer blamed “both sides” for what resulted in the largest attack on Jews on American soil in history.
“I see a lot of bad people on both sides who attack Jews,” he said.
“One of the big forces in college campuses today is anti-Semitism. And those anti-Semites are usually not neo-Nazis, on college campuses. They’re coming from the radical left.”
The ambassador did not produce any evidence for his claims, nor did he back them up with data.
It remains unclear what group on the left Dermer is attempting to blame for the Pittsburgh Synagogue shooting, Raw Story notes.
