Palestinians start the conspiracy theories about Colleyville

It had to happen. 

Al Quds has an article, "The unreported side of the Texas synagogue attack," where the author claims:

* Israeli (and American!)  media didn't report anything about Rabbi Charlie Cytron-Walker throwing the chair at the gunman and sparking the escape.

* The reason there is no coverage of Rabbi Walker is because he calls Israel an "apartheid state" and this embarrasses Jews who, it is implied, own the media.

Of course, the Jewish and Israeli media have had lengthy interviews with Cytron-Walker, and he is pro-Israel.

 Cytron-Walker said, he does not believe Israel is an apartheid state. “When I teach about Israel, I teach about how Israel is complicated. I’m a huge supporter of Israel,” he said, noting that the synagogue’s education program works with the Ofek Learning Hub to have Israeli teachers leading online learning for youth programs, and that “we sing ‘Hatikvah’ [the Israeli national anthem] at the end of every religious school.”

On Congregation Beth Israel's webpage, it shows that Rabbi Cytron-Walker has publicly said that modern antisemitism includes anti-Zionism:

Understanding Modern Antisemitism with Rabbi Charlie on Sunday, January 17, 2021, was an insightful, balanced, and sobering look at the recent resurgence of antisemitism on both the right and the left ends of the political spectrum, and on college campuses. Rabbi Charlie gave examples of antisemitism and explained the harmful impact of enablers: The utilitarian antisemite "pot-stirrers" who enable haters magnify the impact of the extremists by expanding the circles of influence. Modern antisemitism is shockingly similar to more ancient forms, with the primary differences being the addition of the new topics of Israel and Zionism, and the adoption of modern forms of communication. There were 42 people in the Zoom session.

But why should facts get in the way of a good conspiracy theory?
