Is Fox News Contributor Sandy Rios Anti-Semitic?

Posted by Priscilla -25.80pc on March 21, 2012 · Flag

It's bad enough that Fox News occasionally interviews the far right and unhinged Catholic League head Bill Donohue, given Donohue's anti-Semitic comment about how Hollywood is controlled by secular Jews who hate Christianity and who like anal sex. But they now employ, as a contributor, Sandy Rios who is also employed by the American Family Association, an SPLC designated hate group, whose founder, Don Wildmon, has said that obscene content on television is due to the media being controlled by Jews. Rios is now hosting her own show on American Family radio where she said some things that could be construed as anti-Semitic. It's interesting - the liberals on Fox are not exactly far left Code Pink types. But Sandy Rios is about as far right as you can get. I suspect that any liberal, who said that the Jews are "enemies of America," would not earn a spot as a Fox contributor!

In 2005 Rios was employed by the International Federation of Christians and Jews. During a luncheon conference she said that "Christians do want to convert Jews" because "we believe it's part of God's plan." So far, just an ignorant comment reflecting a certain type of Christian belief. But she doubled down: "We love Jews, notwithstanding their rudeness and hatred for us." Suffice to say she was promptly fired. In January of this year, Rios, in defending Pat Buchanan's arguable racist and anti-Semitic philosophy, attacked those who pressured MSNBC to fire him. One of those groups was the Anti-Defamation League whose director, Abraham Foxman, is a Holocaust survivor. Rios said: "Leftist Jewish organizations like ADL whose gold standard is “tolerance” are absolutely intolerant of Christ-followers or anyone they perceive don’t embrace the sacred cow of political correctness with regard to race."

 And earlier this month, in an interview with Byron Fischer of the hate group, "The American Family Association, she doubled down on the Jews: “The Jewish vote in this country is so confused, so many of the Jews in this country are atheist and their hearts are with this President. A lot of Jewish Atheists are some of the ones who have done, just like former Christians or quasi Christians, people who have some dealing with Judeo-Christian ethics, sometimes turn out to be the worst enemies of the country.” She also said that “there are very few” religious people in Israel, “by and large Israel is an atheistic country, they don’t really believe in the God of their fathers, there’s no question about that,” and maintained that Christians must “evangelize and pray for our Jewish brothers and sisters.”

 So Jews are "Enemies of the country" - Hmm, that sounds familiar... But Rios is a Christian conservative so it's all good....

@truman: The far right evangelicals only love Israel because their apocalyptic worldview requires the existence of an Israel as one of the prerequisites for Christ’s eventual return. Unfortunately for them, most Israelis (especially the Orthodox and ultra-Orthodox Jewish ones) are a bit less concerned with what Americans (whether of the secular or the Evangelical Christian variety) want and more concerned with what THEY want.

One of the ironies of Fux Noise is their professed love for Israel combined with their vile hatred of Jews.
