Actor and comedian Jon Lovitz criticized Rep. Rashida Tlaib for her “Happy Hanukkah” post, calling it the “definition of chutzpah” due to her previous vote against a resolution condemning anti-Semitism and supporting Israel.
Others also questioned Tlaib’s understanding of Hanukkah, highlighting its celebration of Jewish independence and resistance.
“Happy Hanukkah to our Jewish neighbors in #12thDistrictStrong and beyond. May this be a time of love and community for you and your loved ones,” Tlaib’s post read. (Trending: US State Unveils Controversial ‘Gender Neutral’ Laws)
“The definition of the word, ‘Chutzpah!’” Lovitz posted,
“As a member of Congress, I voted NO against a resolution condemning antisemitism and recognizing the right of our ally, Israel, to exist. Then, a few days later, wished the same people, Happy Hanukkah.”
“It would be laughable, if you’re hypocrisy wasn’t so disgusting.”
“I can’t imagine a more dishonest tweet than this. Does she even know what the story of Hanukkah is?” Pradheep Shanker wrote.
“This holiday celebrates Jewish independence, pride and sovereignty in our own land, as well as our consistent refusal to bend the knee to heathens. Take your universalist jibber jabber elsewhere, you’re no friend of ours,” Annika Rothstein added.
“I wonder if Rashida Tlaib realizes that #Hanukkah is literally the celebration of the successful #Jewish war against the Greeks who tried to ethnically cleanse indigenous Jews from #Israel. 800 years before the creation of Islam,” @persianjewess wrote.
“She literally just admitted Jews were in the land 1,000 years before Mohammad was born,” Ari Hoffman said.
The criticism centered on Tlaib’s apparent inconsistency and lack of understanding regarding the holiday’s significance.
