Northborough Patch: There is a billboard that is visible from I-190 entering to I-290 west in Worcester that reads “We give Israel $10 million a day! That money could send our kids to college.”
A Worcester native now living in Northborough, Betsy Weiss recently called on fellow Facebook friends to “join me and repost this if you are disgusted as I am.”
“HORRIFYING, HATE MONGERING, BEYOND Antisemitic and, it’s in Worcester,” wrote Weiss on her Facebook page. “This is hate speech cloaked in free speech. Isreal is perhaps the only country in that strategic region that isn’t dedicated to killing Americans.”
Weiss told Patch she is surprised her post didn’t get “more of a reaction” than it did.
The billboard was paid for and posted by www.IfAmericansKnew.org, whose mission is “to inform and educate the American public on issues of major significance that are unreported, underreported, or misreported in the American media. It is our belief that when Americans know the facts on a subject, they will, in the final analysis, act in accordance with morality, justice, and the best interests of their nation, and of the world. With insufficient information, or distorted information, they may do the precise opposite.”
Oh great, more butthurt. First of all, let’s establish something right now. Being critical of a country of Jews isn’t the same thing as being antisemitic. That’s just dumb. Israel is a strong country with a strong military that is paid for by American taxpayers. That’s just a fact. But their government is run by the Israeli version of Dick Cheney and Ted Cruz and has been for years. And guess what? There are lots of Jews and Israelis who are…..wait for it…..wait for it……CRITICAL OF ISRAEL!!! Does that make these Jews traitors to their religion? No. It just makes them people with opinions. Being anti-Israel or critical of Israel does not mean that you’re anti-semitic.
With that said, America does spend a lot of money on foreign aid on Israel. More than any other country on earth actually. So what’s the problem? This billboard just spit out something that you could find on Wikipedia. More importantly, it’s free speech. Any political organization could rent space on that billboard. I’ve seen political candidates a million times before. So what’s the problem? Because you don’t like it? That’s why it shouldn’t be up there? Better get this woman a safe space!!!
Looking at this woman’s Facebook page we see stuff like this too:
Hold on. I get that this woman hates Trump, but does she not realize that Trump and every other Republican is like, 1000% pro-Israel? Does she not understand that Israel is surrounded by Muslim countries, filled with people who would like to wipe them off the face of the earth? Does she not realize that Israel’s immigration policies in regards to Muslims are a million times stricter than anything Donald Trump has ever proposed? Just wondering. Because it seems like anyone who would get this fired up about a billboard criticizing Israel would be all aboard the Trump train. Just sayin.
Based on other posts like this:
It’s obvious that she is a liberal. Which is fine. I just think it’s hilarious though, because generally it’s the left that is more sympathetic to Palestinians. One of her friends brought this to her attention:
How does not supporting Israel benefit the US? My question is, how does supporting them unconditionally benefit us? Seems to me like we get dragged into a lot of wars and spend a lot of money defending what is basically the 51st state. Look, we’re as pro-Israel as the next guy, but to say that it’s hate speech to suggest that we should keep writing another country blank checks makes zero sense.
Oh yea, and the organization that put it up – “IfAmericaKnew.org” – they’re as far left as you can possibly get. So basically Betsy Weiss is a 100% liberal, unless you’re talking badly about one of the most conservative countries on earth, because the people who live there are Jewish. Makes sense.
Hey Betsy, we’ve got a solution for you. Call the company who owns the billboard up and put your own “I love Israel” sign up there next month. Boom. Problem solved.

The money spent helping Israel be bad ass in the middle east is money well spent. . Far cheaper than bombing the crap out of a country, destabilizing the region and trying to rebuild what we just bombed.
Absolutely right.
Shitting on Israel was the liberal cause celebre until Only Black Lives Matter because a thing. Clearly she never got the memo.
And this is coming from a liberal.
Who cares if another country likes or hates us? I’d rather be admired, respected or feared.
Facebook is wrong.
Being “liked” is a great attribute for a spaniel , street performer or a tart, not something to aspire to for a strong nation.
Libs aren’t typically known for their intellectual prowess. More so their hypocrisy. Thus we have the billboard and the FB tool proving themselves the rule, not the exception. She mustn’t have gotten the memo from the DNC.
Safe space? I hear trheres one at the bottom of lake Quinsig. She should start there.
The better billboard would have been one like mentioned above… Addressing ALL the money will give as aid.
I’d much rather say “Eff off” to the rest of the world, seeing as so many places hate us, and keep that money here. $35billion could fix the VA issues, subsidize companies to move back here instead of inverting, and a litany of other problems.
Overly idealistic of me however, to think the government would spend it properly.
Now we’re getting down to the gristle…you work all day to pay for Israel’s missilles
…. we also give $1.5 billion annually to Egypt in direct Military aid …. I guess you work all day to pay for their fighter jets & missiles too (and Egypt which is dominated by the Muslim Brotherhood hates us !!!!!). How’s that Gristle?
Don’t get me wrong ….. I’d like to see just about all International aid reduced to purely humanitarian needs …. but don’t single out Israel, when many MANY other countries are getting US Military & economic aid. And that’s just the tip of the Iceberg …. then there are foreign Military aid in other forms, like the biillions we spend to by the US to police the DMZ between North & South Korea. That could buy a lot of school books too …
Another double-standard of course. We have first amendment rights in America. It did not come easy to get that either. I have to look at the daily PC rules, to see if that sign is offending.
We give Israel $3.1b in aid. Mostly in the form of Military & Defense aid. Because, you know ….. everyone wants to kill our only real MidEast ally. The only real Democracy.
Here’s why its anti-Israel. The US gives approximately $35 billion in aid to all countries. Israel receives $3.1 billion of $35 billion or 9%. That’s right 9 %, mostly for shit to keep them alive and safe. We give over $5 billion to all other MidEast countries that hate the US and our way of life. Would it be better to call out the countries that get our coin & hate us?
If this person with the Billboard really cared about money for our children’s education …. they would have said the US gives out $100 million a day to “ALL” countries in aid that could be used for kid’s education. Instead they specifically call out only Israel, acting like they get everything, when in reality it’s less than 10%.
Clearly a bash on Israel ….. but I really don’t care . Just want to call out the posters disingenuous motive. But they have the right o hate anyone. Free country.
The billboard isn’t anti-Israel. It’s anti-government spending money over seas that could (arguably) be better spent here
clearly anti-Israel ….. or they would have called out ALL countries …. see below
She is objecting to a controversial sign. No harm in that.
Imagine if the sign were aimed at cops for making six figure incomes by inflating the cost of road construction. Or blacks for being poor. Or teachers and how much they make for part time work.
Stop being a dooshnozzle nanniburger TB.
