Whoopi Goldberg Faces Termination Over Recent Holocaust Comments
The View co-host Whoopi Goldberg is facing termination after she made yet again, controversial comments about the Holocaust.
About 10 months ago, Goldberg was suspended from “The View” after she claimed the Holocaust was not about race. She initially apologized about the comments however her apology appears to not be sincere considering just this week, she made another similar remark.
“Remember who they were killing first. They were not killing racial; they were killing physical. They were killing people they considered to be mentally defective. And then they made this decision,” she said.
As noted by journalist Janice Turner, the Nazi’s actually created race laws agains the Jews.
“Nazis saw Jews as a race,” Turner said.
“Yes, but that’s the killer, isn’t it? The oppressor is telling you what you are. Why are you believing them? They’re Nazis. Why believe what they’re saying?” she blasted.
“It doesn’t change the fact that you could not tell a Jew on a street,” Turner continued. “You could find me. You couldn’t find them.”
“But you would have thought that I’d taken a big old stinky dump on the table, butt naked,” she said while referring to comments made by Goldberg on “The View.”
“Whoopi Goldberg – 1 million Jews were murdered in Auschwitz alone, so take a lesson from @AuschwitzMuseum. Hitler targeted Jews for annihilation arguing that we are a distinct and inferior race. Stop distorting history. It’s offensive to every Jew murdered in the Holocaust,” tweeted Boundless Israel co-founder Aviva Klompas.

“Whoopi is at it again, repeating the very same nonsense about the Holocaust she ‘apologized’ for months ago! Whoopi is so ignorant she claims Nazi genocide was ‘not about race’ even though Africans were also murdered as ‘racial inferiors’ just like Jews! @TheView is her enabler,” said Democrat new York Assemblyman Dov Hikind with an attached video where he called her “ignorant,” “stupid” and “uneducated.”
“You’re entitled to say whatever you want to say. This is America,” Hiking added. “But ABC does not need to give you a platform.”

This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Goldberg’s history of comments against the Jewish community.
Check out what the Daily Mail reported in relation to derogatory comments Goldberg made about Jewish women in a cookbook:
Whoopi Goldberg’s suspension from The View this week is the pinnacle of a years-long habit of making off-color remarks about Jewish people that includes a recipe she wrote for a celebrity cookbook in the 1990s called ‘Jewish American Princess Fried Chicken’, DailyMail.com can reveal.
In 1993, Goldberg – whose real name is Caryn Johnson – submitted the recipe to Cooking in The Litchfield Hills, a charity cookbook comprised of recipes from the well-heeled residents of the leafy Connecticut suburb.
DailyMail.com exclusively obtained a copy of the long-forgotten cookbook, where Whoopi’s recipe mocking Jewish-American women glaringly stands out amongst friendlier submissions like legend Diane Sawyer’s ‘roasted potato skins with scallion dip’, the late Eartha Kitt’s ‘summer zucchini soup with nasturtium blossoms’ and Oscar de la Renta’s ‘fresh pumpkin and crab soup’.
“Send chauffeur to your favorite butcher shop for the chicken (save the brown paper bag). Have your cook 1) Melt equal parts oil and butter 3/4 deep in skillet over moderate heat,” Goldberg’s recipe reads.
“2) Put flour, seasoned with remaining ingredients, into brown paper bag. 3) Rinse chicken parts and place in bag.”
“Then you tightly close top of bag (watch your nails) and shake 10 times,” the cookbook said.
“Hand bag to Cook, go dress for dinner. While you dress, have Cook preheat oven to 350 degrees and brown chicken slowly in skillet. When evenly browned, have Cook place chicken in dish in oven. Have Cook prepare rest of meal while you touch up your makeup.”
“In about half an hour, voila! Dinner is served! You must be exhausted,” she said.
The Anti-Defamation League blasted Goldberg.
“It’s a lousy recipe with insensitive and anti-Semitic ingredients. Whoopi should know better,” they said.
“She needs some sensitivity training, unfortunately. The good people who published it need some sensitivity training too,” they added.
