Disney’s ABC is coming under pressure to fire ‘The View’s’ Whoopi Goldberg after she doubled down on her comments about the Holocaust, claiming in a recent interview that the murder of six million Jewish people during World War II wasn’t racially motivated.
But the tweet has since been deleted.The Sunday Timesasked Goldberg about her controversial comments, asking if she still believes what she said.“My best friend said, ‘Not for nothing is there no box on the census for the Jewish race. So that leads me to believe that we’re probably not a race,’ ” she told the newspaper.
When the interviewer pushed back saying “Nazis saw Jews as a race,” Goldberg replied: “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 added: “It doesn’t change the fact that you could not tell a Jew on a street. You could find me. You couldn’t find them.”
I’m a Mizrahi Jew, I’m not white as I look Arab. Fuck Whoopi and her racist tirade towards Jews slaughtered in the Holocaust. #whoopi #whoopigoldburg #FireWhoopi https://t.co/Zdff15FCUX

So, after supposed ‘apology’ earlier in year, Whoopi Goldberg doubles down on her vile remarks that the Holocaust was not about race, and instead ‘white on white’ violence. Someone get this ignorant fool off the air! @TheView pic.twitter.com/zxDP6PX4Ig
