HONY is a anti semite
He went to iran for over a month to try and show the world how good iran is he spent a few days in isarel taking photos of Palestinians “suffering”
he also deletes comments that are pro jews and israel while leaving the ones that are anti israel and anti jewish ones

does not see anti Semite
