In light of the recent U.S. decision to relocate its Israeli embassy to Jerusalem and recognize the city as Israel's capital, zionist columnist and editor of the The Daily Wire Ben Shapiro >has taken center stage in defending the >highly controversial and internationally condemned decision.
As a result, an extremely offensive and racist Shapiro tweet from 2010 has resurfaced online, pointing out just how extreme his support of Israeli occupation is. Comparing Israelis to Arabs, Shapiro's comments are so insanely inaccurate, it's truly incredible that he has maintained any credibility.
Arabs like to bomb and live in open sewage? Arabs don't build? Seriously?!
While there certainly are places in the Arab world where sanitation problems exist and where bombs do explode, such extremes are far from the norm. And honestly, how can any intelligent person actually believe Arabs don't like to build?
Has Shapiro ever heard of Dubai?
The world's tallest building is in this Arab city ... FYI
Has he ever heard of Abu Dhabi?
Or Doha?
Riyadh?
The modern skylines of these cities seriously beg to differ with Shapiro's blatantly stupid assertion.
Did he know one of the greatest architects of this century was an Arab woman?
Iraqi-British architect >Zaha Hadid died in 2016, leaving behind an incredible legacy as one of the most well-known architects in the world.
Hadid was the first woman to win the prestigious Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2004. Along with numerous other honors and awards throughout her lifetime, she also became the first woman to receive the Royal Institute of British Architects Gold Medal.
Of course, Shapiro ignores the fact that Israelis are really great at bombing Palestinians
During the 2014 assault on Gaza, Israelis killed at least 2,104 Palestinians, including 1,462 civilians, of whom 495 were children and 253 women, according to the UN.
In comparison, Palestinians killed 66 Israeli soldiers and seven civilians during the war.
