Jerusalem Post Smears Black Republican Vernon Jones with Flaming Swastika
[BREITBART] The Jerusalem Post used a stock photograph of a flaming swastika and white youths giving a Nazi salute to accompany an article on Sep. 10 about Republican Vernon Jones, who is running for governor in Georgia and also happens to be black.

(Update: The Post replaced the swastika photograph with a photograph of Jones, following publication of this article.)

The article, by Ron Kampeas of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency wire service, described how a local Atlanta Jewish news outlet was pressured by leftists to drop an op-ed by Jones expressing solidarity with the Jewish community and Israel.

The Atlanta Jewish Times’ supposed reasons for dropping the article were the newspapers’ supposed policy against partisan political articles, and an allegation that Jones had associated himself with white supremacists at a protest against the 2020 election results. The paper’s leadership blamed junior staffers, and the rush of the High Holidays, for the supposed mistake.

#2 What the hell is wrong with the Jerusalem Post?

They don't like blacks?
They don't like conservatives?
The don't like people who left the Dem Party?
All of the above?
