“Israel Is Evil, I Support Palestine; US Govt Brainwashed”

New Detroit Pistons Owner to Schlussel: “Israel Is Evil, I Support Palestine; US Govt Brainwashed”

By Debbie Schlussel

I’ve already told you about new Detroit Pistons Owner “Palestinian” Tewfiq Tom Gores and his pro-HAMAS, pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel, mobster family.  I also told you how he and his friends sicced a Jewish Detroit area lawyer to call and threaten me, demanding I remove the post.  Now I’ve heard from his partner in his multi-billion dollar Platinum Equity, the company that bought the Pistons with him.  Annie Joubran is Tom Gores’ partner in Platinum AND she’s married to his first cousin, Robert Joubran, also his partner in Platinum.  Over the last few days a number of Tom Gores’ relatives and friends–who are Israeli Arabs of Lebanese descent, but identify as “Palestinians”–posted anti-Israel, anti-Semitic comments on this site.

Detroit Pistons, Now Brought to You By Israel Haters

Then, over the weekend, I received an unsolicited anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian e-mail, below, from Annie Joubran, who as a partner in Platinum (with her husband, Robert), is also a co-owner of the Pistons.  Hey, maybe they should change the name of the team to the Detroit Palestinians, then they can claim that the rest of us are illegally occupying “their” territory and must leave to accommodate their jihad.
Ms. Joubran, by the way, is Armenian (her maiden name is Annie Sarkissian).  She and her husband give a lot of money to charities promoting Armenian art, but there’s a disconnect, as much of Armenian art recalls the Armenian Holocaust, and she is apparently clueless about who perpetrated that genocide. A person who was formerly listed on LinkedIn mentions her “job experience” as Annie and Robert Joubran’s “Personal Assistant/Estate Manager/Stylist/Shopper.” Must be nice. If only she spent some of that money on the “oppressed” Palestinians along with the gazillions the whole world is already sending them. Read our e-mail “discussion,” below.

You can have all the press in the world- but the truth does wiggle its way to the top. I pray you continue your calling- because with every article you write and every interview you give the subject of what’s truly going on in Palestine becomes more and more transparent.
Everyone in the world who knows anything about politics knows the truth about what the israelis have done to the Arabs in Palestine. Read the rest of this entry »
