On March 1, 2020 Sheryl Nestel posted on Facebook:

The irrepressible Eli Valley gives us the unvarnished truth as usual.

Sheryl Nestel’s Facebook post was accompanied with a cartoon that featured evil-looking Haman (a Persian minister in the book of Esther who plotted to massacre the entire Jewish community) saying:

My fellow Zionists! I am pleased to join you in announcing…

Bernie Sanders is the most hateful anisemite in the world!

The heading of the cartoon reads: “AIPAC keynote address HAMAN” alongside the American and the Israeli flags. AIPAC is the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, a pro-Israel advocacy group.

Lia Tarachansky, an Israeli-Russian video journalist and filmmaker and member of IJV Canada, commented on the cartoon:

Is it not possible to create critical images of the pro-Israel lobby without resorting to the worst racist tropes time and time again??
