Bereaved father and husband Rabbi Leo Dee accuses CNN of ‘terror journalism’

Rabbi Leo Dee, who lost his wife and two daughters in terrorist shooting attack, castigates CNN for comparing Israeli self-defense to Arab terror.

By World Israel News Staff

Rabbi Leo Dee, the bereaved father and husband who lost his wife and two daughters in a terror attack in the Jordan Valley earlier this month, excoriated CNN for drawing a moral equivalence between the murder of his wife and daughters on one hand and Israel’s acts of self-defense against Arab terrorists on the other.

Rabbi Dee accused CNN of engaging in “terror journalism” and perpetuating a false equivalency between Israel and its attackers.

Last week in an interview with CNN, Rabbi Dee recounted the murder of his wife, Lucy, 48, and daughters Maia, 20, and Rina, 15.

However, when the segment ended, CNN reporter Christina Macfarlane implied that Palestinian Arabs were also suffering from the conflict, prompting Rabbi Dee to speak out against the false equivalency, slamming CNN in an interview with the London-based Jewish Chronicle.

He argued that there is no equivalent on the Israeli side and accused anti-Israel media outlets of “terror journalism.”

Despite the tragedy, Rabbi Dee stressed that he believes that “most Palestinian Arabs are good people” and that his family had received messages of condolence from Palestinians.

Rabbi Dee also condemned the UK government’s initial response, which failed to explicitly mention Palestinians or terrorism. However, Foreign Secretary James Cleverly later sent a letter to Rabbi Dee condemning the act of terrorism and reaffirming the UK’s commitment to ending the cycle of violence.

Ex-CNN anchor Don Lemon to take break from news media after firing

After being fired from CNN, Don Lemon pushes back on accusations, says he has no regrets, plans to spend the summer ‘on the beach and on the boat.’

By World Israel News Staff

Former CNN anchor Don Lemon, who was fired from his job at the news network earlier this week amid allegations of “diva-like” and misogynistic behavior, played the victim at the Time 100 Gala in New York, while hinting he is not rushing to find a new position.

The Baton Rouge native, who reportedly made $7 million a year at CNN and is expected to walk away with a $25 million payout, described himself as a “survivor” during an interview with Extra on the red carpet.

Despite the sudden and unceremonious axing, Lemon boasted about having the luxury of taking time off and spending “the summer on the beach and on the boat, and with my family.”

The embattled TV personality narrowly avoided an embarrassing run-in with his former co-anchor and former boss at the Time 100 event. Event organizers seated them at separate tables for dinner.

Licht denied that Lemon’s firing and Tucker Carlson’s departure at Fox were deliberately set for the same time on Monday morning. Lemon broke the news of his unemployment on Twitter, hinting at “larger issues at play.”

President Biden likely to die within the next five years, says Nikki Haley

Republican presidential hopeful and former governor and US Ambassador to the UN predicts President Biden’s demise before the end of his second term.

By World Israel News Staff

On Wednesday, Republican presidential hopeful and former South Carolina Governor and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley predicted that President Joe Biden is likely to pass away within the next five years.

Haley also suggested that if the 80-year-old incumbent were to win re-election next year, his supporters would have to rely on Vice President Kamala Harris.

During an interview on Fox News, Haley stated, “He announced that he’s running again in 2024, and I think that we can all be very clear and say with a matter of fact that if you vote for Joe Biden you really are counting on a President Harris, because the idea that he would make it until 86 years old is not something that I think is likely.”

The White House responded bluntly to Haley’s comments, with Deputy Press Secretary Andrew Bates telling NBC News that although the administration does not typically respond directly to campaign remarks, he had “honestly, forgot she was running.”

Haley’s campaign centers around a “new generation” of leadership, and she has proposed that politicians over the age of 75 be required to take a mental competency test. First Lady Jill Biden criticized this suggestion, calling it “ridiculous.”

At 51, Haley has highlighted the generational gap between herself and the two most recent presidents – the 80-year-old Joe Biden and 76-year-old Donald Trump.

While Haley served under Trump as ambassador, she will face off against her former boss in next year’s Republican primaries.
