Yesterday, I posted on Facebook a picture of President Obama presenting the Medal of Freedom to Shimon Peres. This is a big deal, for all sorts of reasons, but above all its a nice photograph of an America president honoring a Jew who is also a legendary Israeli.
Here it is. See?
Unfortunately, this simple collection of pixels brought out the worst in some of my Facebook friends. Highlights of the thread follow, with names eliminated to protect the mentally unhinged:
Pull it Tighter. Lots tighter. PLEASE.
Dov Bear:Yes, yes. Let's wish death on a octogenarian legend who has done more for Israel and the Jews than any 100 of us combined # stay classy
An Octogenerian Villain.
Dov Bear: Yes, yes. Hitler without the mustache. How shrewd of you to notice.
Done "for" Israel? Done * to * Israel is more like it.
Dov Bear: Yup, and everyone in the world agrees with you, which is why he was voted the 11th-Greatest Israeli of all time in a Ynet poll
11th greatest? Who are the other ten biggest blunders? I would have had him in the top 2 at least. He is a villain.If you arent up on that all, you have lots to learn.
Dov Bear: Yes, Most definitely * I * am the one Who Has Lots to Learn. Me and everyone else who judged him 11th greatest Israeli, whereas you are unimpeachably correct. Got it.
Are you going to tell us all Yigal Amir killed Rabin? Holy crap, what a popular media spoon fed idiot you must be. Have you no intrigue? Do you not question what they feed you for breakfast lunch and supper? Read the frikin ingredients!!!!
Dov Bear: Oh yes, of course Peres Killed Rabin, no doubt about it!! Plus he murdered Paul. When you play Hatikvah backwards its all there.
