2. Did Jeremy Corbyn, the head of Britain's Labor Party, really lay a wreath in memory of the Palestinian terrorists who slaughtered Israelis at the Munich Olympics? Is he the highest-ranking current political leader in Western Europe to evidence anti-semitism beyond anti-Israeli sentiments? Or is he the symptom of a spreading disease?https://www.tabletmag.com/scroll/268491/jeremy-corbyn-will-lay-a-wreath-for-plo-munich-murderers-but-not-for-dead-jews-at-yad-vashem?utm_source=tabletmagazinelist&utm_campaign=94b8cf93cc-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_08_13_08_33&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_c308bf8edb-94b8cf93cc-206560494
3. With all of the issues swirling around Israel, The Times of Israel recently reported that the country is now confronting...a crocoidile crisis. https://www.timesofisrael.com/israel-faces-crocodile-conundrum-with-stranded-reptiles/ 700 of them isolated at a defunct "tourist attraction." As one observor pointed out: "a loose croc in the Jordan River could spark an international incident." OY!!
4. JTA reported that a moronic (my description) GOP candidate for Governor of California publcly compared waiting in line at the DMV to the Holocaust. Enough said about that guy.

You (and the JTA) are wrkng about the CA candidate. He did not compare... he repeated what a Holocaust survivor told him. And he quickly apologized fpr repeating that story.
