Awake Goy Comedian Adam Sandler went on the Howard Stern show last week and defended Israel against musician Roger Waters’s call on musicians to boycott the country in line with the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaign. Notice that Sandler acknowledges that people say bad things about Israel now; and that he includes a generational disclaimer: I defend Israel because my parents love it.
Sandler: I like when you get upset about Israel, and I get nervous about Israel too. That’s from my house. My father and mother– very pro-Israel.
Stern: Me too. Me too.
Sandler: And when someone says shit about Israel– I know people say shit about Israel. And they fucking won’t play.
Stern: Roger Waters was really going to town.
Sandler: And when you go off on Roger Waters– I love that you do that, I’m disgusted that they single out Israel. ‘Oh we can’t play Israel.’ All these fucking nice Israeli people are getting a Fuck you from Roger Waters… I’m not very crazy religious. But like I said I grew up being proud of being a Jew and that’s what I am.
So what else did your parents tell you that you found out wasn’t right? You can hear the same generational respect in Peter Beinart’s love of Israel. He’s a person who respects his elders; and the sense, “I’m doing this because my father and grandfather love Israel” comes through his statements (and he is keeping up the chain by putting the Israeli flag in his son’s bedroom).
Another generational thing. Sandler said when he started doing comedy, the late Rodney Dangerfield (born Jacob Rodney Cohen in 1921) and his own father told him not to advertise the fact that he’s Jewish. But he did it anyway, and it turned out that Sandler’s Jewishness never hurt him, it helped him, with the famous Hanukkah song. He is the face of a telephone company’s ad campaign in Israel.
BTW the American acceptance means that the Zionism is being undermined; because Zionism was based on the belief that we are unsafe in the west.
