Cuomo: Lindsey Graham is telling the truth about Trump

McConnell Denounces Trump

Posting newspaper articles on Internet

Update from today 

 To Whom It May Concern,


We are writing to follow up on our emailed letter dated 5/4 regarding posts on your website. Said letter is attached hereto for your convenience. Please review and respond as soon as possible. Thank you

 

 I just received this lawyer letter requesting that I remove a posting of a newspaper article from 2014

Monsey mother loses custody battle after leaving Hasidic community which was published in the Rockland County Times. 

I have no problem deleting a post with false information but this is expressed as

Our client simply wishes to put this incident behind them and move on with their lives. While it is important that information be archived, surely one must not be punished in perpetuity? It is no secret that the Internet and technology have made it increasingly difficult for anyone to put even the smallest of mistakes firmly behind them and move on. Therefore, we would like to request that the article in question be removed from your website. Altematively, we are open to compromise aחangement such as de-indexing the article or, perhaps, removing our client's name from the article.

I would like to hear my reader's comment as to what is the best way to respond to this.

Dual Loyalty and the Israel Lobby

 https://www.myjewishlearning.com/article/dual-loyalty-and-the-israel-lobby/

 In all these cases particular groups of Americans sustained and supported a country with which they had hereditary ties of some sort. But they did so in terms of standards that had universal currency among all their fellow citizens–the spread of democracy through the world, the self-determination of nations, international action for peace, the desirability of aiding small peoples against great oppressors. One did not have to be a Jew or an Irishman or an Italian to find justice in these arguments.

 Dual loyalty is a bigoted trope used to cast Jews as the “other.” For example, it becomes antisemitic when an American Jew’s connection to Israel is scrutinized to the point of questioning his or her trustworthiness or loyalty to the United States. Dual loyalty accusations also occur on U.S. college campuses when Jewish students are asked to denounce the actions of the Israeli government in order to participate in progressive activities.

Why ‘Dual Loyalty’ Comments Are Anti-Semitic

“Where has the Democratic Party gone? Where have they gone when they are defending those two people over the state of Israel?” Trump asked. He continued: “I think any Jewish people that vote for a Democrat, I think it shows either a total lack of knowledge or great disloyalty.”
