You know, it’s interesting that people accuse Israel of being a genocidal country and claim that Jews are full of hatred toward Islam — that we’re suffering from “Islamophobia.” Nothing could be further from the truth.
In fact, what I find is that Jewish people and Israelis are deeply concerned about the well-being of Muslims. And one of our biggest concerns as Jewish people is the mistreatment of others. Often, we will defend others even faster than we will defend ourselves.
One thing that’s been heavily on my mind is the unbelievable abuse that Muslim women and children are suffering — especially the child rape that’s disguised as “child marriage.” It has to end. It has to end.
