Far-left Oscar-winning actress Susan Sarandon has been dropped by United Talent Agency (UTA) in the wake of her predictable outrageous antisemitic comments about how “a lot of people [are] afraid of being Jewish at this time, and are getting a taste of what it feels like to be a Muslim in this country.”
Sarandon’s comparison lacked moral equivalence, but we can move on.
As we reported on Tuesday, Asra Nomani – a conservative Indian American author born in India to Muslim parents – destroyed Sarandon’s ridiculous yet hurtful premise with a classy post entitled “Let Me Give You a Taste” of what ‘feels’ like to be a Muslim living in America.
Hello @SusanSarandon. This is me, my mom, and my dad on the rail trail at Morgantown, West by God Virginia. What does it mean to be Muslim in America?
Hi there @SusanSarandon, this is my mom, my dad and me on the rail trail in Morgantown, West by God Virginia. Let me tell you what it means to be Muslim in America.
First, your backstory: At an anti-Israel protest in NYC, you just said, “There are a lot of people that are… pic.twitter.com/zAyUjpTxkY

According to sources, several UTA employees were “extremely injured” by Sarandon’s continued rage against Jews while Israel’s military campaign in Gaza to destroy Hamas continues.

Susan Sarandon’s statement that Jews are “getting a taste” of being a Muslim was a way to say that American Jews deserve it — we don’t deserve to be free from harassment and abuse.
Sarandon was saying exactly that, if not even worse.
When Susan Sarandon said that Jews “are getting a taste of what it feels like to be a Muslim in this country” she was saying that American Jews have it coming – that we don’t deserve to live free from harassment and assault.

Sarandon’s antisemitic views are far from those of the Lone Ranger, as Hollywood continues to be divided over the Israel-Hamas War.
Creative Artists Agency announced on Sunday that Maha Dakhil – a prominent agent whose clients included Tom Cruise, Reese Witherspoon, and Madonna – was stepping down as a leader at the agency after posting inflammatory comments to Instagram, calling Israel’s reaction to the Hamas attack of October 7, “genocide”.
Tilda Swinton is one of over 2,000 artists in the entertainment business who identify themselves as “Artists For Palestine” and have called on the rest of the world to stop backing Israel. “Our governments not only tolerate war crimes but also aid and abet them.”
The blatant hypocrisy and double standard of the extreme left are not surprising to anyone who knows their collective mind.
On the other hand, it’s fair to say that more than 700 people, including Michael Douglas and Amy Schumer as well as Gal Gadot Jamie Lee Curtis, and Jerry Seinfeld, signed an open message just days after the attack on October 7, condemning Hamas “barbaric terrorist acts” by saying the terrorist group “must be condemned by everyone.”
Conclusion:
It must be hard to be a leftist, especially in Hollywood.
Who decides the direction of the wind in relation to any controversial issue or global event? The number of Jewish Americans working in the entertainment industry makes me wonder what is happening as the Israeli-Hamas War continues.
But I know this: there is no more loyal ally of Israel than the American Republican Party. You would think that the reality of 2024 might make a larger percentage of Jewish American Voters take this into consideration.
