Ex Obama Adviser Says Killing 4,000 Palestinian Children ‘Wasn’t Enough’

Stuart Seldowitz, who worked on the National Security Council South Asia Directorate under Obama, was seen on video accusing a New York City food truck vendor of being a “terrorist.”

A lobbying group has cut ties with an ex-adviser to former President Barack Obama after videos surfaced that show the man making Islamophobic comments and threats to a food cart employee in New York City.

The videos, posted on X (formerly Twitter) by a Columbia University student, shows Stuart Seldowitz asking someone off camera, “Did you rape your daughter like Muhammad did?” and saying that killing 4,000 Palestinian children “wasn’t enough.”

Seldowitz was acting director for the National Security Council South Asia Directorate under Obama and was deputy director/senior political officer in the U.S. State Department’s Office of Israel and Palestinian Affairs from 1999 to 2003. More recently, he served as foreign affairs chair for Gotham Government Relations, which announced his new role in a press release in November 2022.

On Tuesday afternoon, Gotham announced on Twitter that it had cut ties with Seldowitz.

    For a religion that includes a professional baby dick sucker bringing up liturgical rape is a weird choice.

        Correct me if I’m wrong here, is a moyle not a professional who sucks baby dick.

        How is a blunt job description anti semitic?

        Ed: I’ll answer my own question…

        Under Jewish law, mohalim must draw blood from the circumcision wound. Most mohalim do it by hand with a suction device,[9][10][11][12] but some follow the traditional practice of doing it by mouth. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a warning in 2012 about the health implications of the latter practice, citing 11 cases of neonatal Herpes simplex virus (HSV) and two recorded fatalities.[13] A 2013 review of cases of neonatal HSV infections in Israel identified ritual circumcision as the source of HSV-1 transmission in 31.8% of the cases.[14]

          Because you’re painting an entire religion by the actions of a few extremists. It’s like if I said all Muslims were the same as ISIS.

            “that includes” it is understood that it is not the whole, all regions have their branches, what is really relevant is whether it is tolerated by the rest. Speaking of branches of judaism, I wonder if there is one that does not advocate genital mutilation of babies.
