    For the first point:

    “While he was in high school, Josh Shapiro was required to do a service project, which he and several classmates completed through a program that took them to a kibbutz in Israel where he worked on a farm and at a fishery,” Bonder told the outlet, and later confirmed with The Daily Beast. “The program also included volunteering on service projects on an Israeli army base. At no time was he engaged in any military activities,” Bonder added.

    second: He did not say “savages” he said:

    too battle-minded to be able to establish a peaceful homeland of their own

    Additionally both of these statements were made in 1993 and he’s already stated he longer supports these statements. Source because you don’t have one.

    Admittedly 3 is weird but without proof (which I didn’t find) it’s nothing more than a conspiracy theory.

      Thank you for the clarification. The truth is important, and small exaggerations can quickly get out of hand.

      Now that I’ve read your corrections, I see that indeed these claims OP makes are based on truth, and I am now even more sure I am not voting for this ghoul.
