Pat Condell on Jew hatred


Despite the fact that he’s an atheist, I really like Pat Condell much of the time.   Here’s his new zinger.   God bless him!

I just want to correct my initial blog post on this subject. I wrote that no major Jewish organizations had come out in support of Wiesenfeld and that was incorrect.
