(Jewish Group) Candidate Accused Of Anti-Semitism Unveils Ad Highlighting Jewish Heritage

[Behind the Aegis]

(THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP! RESPECT!!)

A former CIA operative who faced criticism for sharing anti-Semitic articles on social media and is now running for Congress in New Mexico unveiled her first campaign ad on Monday, which included a reference to her Jewish heritage.

Valerie Plame, a former spy whose identity was leaked in one of the George W. Bush administration’s most notable scandals, released a video on Monday promoting her candidacy for the Democratic nomination in the Land of Enchantment’s third congressional district, which includes Santa Fe and the rest of the state’s north.

Her campaign video plays up her national security bona fides, even showing her performing a high-speed U-turn in a sports car while her voiceover states, “Yes, the CIA really does teach us how to drive like this.”

Plame attracted controversy in 2017 after tweeting links to anti-Semitic articles from a Holocaust-denying website, including one headlined “American Jews Are Driving America’s Wars” and another that claimed that Israel was behind the 9/11 terror attacks. Plame at first defended her comments before apologizing and deleting her Twitter account. It has not be revived since.

1. Is someone that naive not to realize what they are tweeting and linking when it contains the words,

"The Jews are responsible for American wars"?

I think it is an open question, and it deserves more than just a simple apology, along with I didn't know realize what I was doing, or making reference that "I have Ukrainian, with Jewish heritage in my family tree", as though that makes everything fine
