Original"אמפתיה אובדנית למחבלים": הקומיקאית היהודייה שחשפה את פרצופם של שונאי ישראל | צפו ברשתות החברתיות למאות אלפי עוקביה, במונולוג מושחז, לוחמני וחסר מעצורים, יצאה הקומיקאית היהודייה-אמריקאית אסתי פלטי @mommyrn88 במתקפה חזיתית נגד הצביעות, ההתרפסות וה"אמפתיה האובדנית" של שונאי ישראל במערב מול איומי הטרור. כשהיא מתייחסת לסיכול ניסיון הפיגוע הדרמטי בטיסת FlyDubai ולגבורת הנוסעים הישראלים שהשתלטו על המחבל, פלטי חשפה את האבסורד המזעזע והעיוורון המוחלט של אותם גורמים עוינים. "אילו הטיסה הזו הייתה ממריאה מקליפורניה או מאזורים של שונאי ישראל, חלק מהפחדנים שם עוד היו עוזרים למחבל לחטוף את המטוס!", תקפה פלטי בחריפות. "הגעתם למצב של אמפתיה אובדנית עד שאתם נעמדים בצד של הטרוריסטים - רוצים גלובליזציה של האינתיפאדה, רוצים שהם יחטפו מטוסים וישרפו את הכל, רק כי אינכם מסוגלים לווסת את השנאה היוקדת שלכם ליהודים ולדונלד טראמפ!" פלטי שיבחה בהתרגשות את הגברים האמיתיים שגילו גבורה עילאית, נלחמו במחבל והצילו את הנוסעים ממוות בטוח, והבהירה כי נס ההצלה התרחש בזכות חסדי השמיים ותושייה ענקית במהלך החג. "העם היהודי לא רק חי וקיים - אנחנו נמשיך לשגשג ולנצח! תפסיקו עם האמפתיה האובדנית שלכם למחבלים, כי העם היהודי חזק, עוצמתי ובעזרת השם ימשיך לנצח את כל שונאיו!"

  • Comedian Esty Palti criticized Western "suicidal empathy" for terrorists.
  • She addressed the foiled FlyDubai hijacking and passenger bravery.
  • Palti accused critics of hypocrisy and anti-Jewish sentiment.
  • She asserted the resilience and strength of the Jewish people.

Jewish-American comedian Esty Palti, known online as @mommyrn88, has launched a strong critique against what she terms the "suicidal empathy" and hypocrisy of Westerners towards Israel and terrorism. In a viral monologue shared with her hundreds of thousands of followers, Palti addressed the foiled hijacking attempt on a FlyDubai flight, where Israeli passengers subdued the terrorist.

Palti argued that those who exhibit this "suicidal empathy" are blind to the absurdity of their stance, suggesting that in some Western regions, people might even assist a terrorist. "You have reached a state of suicidal empathy to the point that you stand with the terrorists," she stated, accusing them of wanting a "globalization of the intifada" fueled by an inability to control their hatred for Jews and Donald Trump.

She praised the bravery of the Israeli passengers who intervened, attributing their success to divine providence and quick thinking during the holiday. Palti concluded with a message of resilience for the Jewish people, asserting their strength and determination to overcome their enemies. "The Jewish people are not just alive and existing, we will continue to flourish and win!" she declared.
