Recent controversy erupted over Jill Stein's comments during a public appearance, where it was initially reported that she stated 'The Jewish people have Poland.' This sparked outrage given the historical context of the Holocaust, during which approximately three million Polish Jews were murdered. However, further review and clarification revealed that Stein was interrupted while saying 'The Jewish people have homeland...' and did not specifically mention Poland. This misunderstanding was fueled by the interruption from a protester, leading to misinterpretations of her statement.
Come on, people. I am no fan of Jill Stein. But she did not say "The Jewish people have Poland." (What would that even mean?) She said "The Jewish people have homeland ..." and then got cut off by the protester. https://t.co/w7IATTqJdU
Deleted this tweet because folks plausibly contend she said "homeland" not "Poland" and rewatching it, I think the benefit of the doubt goes to her, even though I think she's generally full of crap. https://t.co/x40tzbbapU
She says "the Jewish people have homeland..." and gets interrupted, not "the Jewish people have Poland." The guy she's arguing with repeats the word "homeland." https://t.co/oKhtDM6njs

Jill Stein: “The Jewish people have a homeland in Poland” Three million Polish Jews were murdered in the Holocuast at Chelmno, Belzec, Sobibor, Treblinka, and Auschwitz II–Birkenau extermination camps https://t.co/8qnjKs2QYn
In which Jill Stein says that the Jewish people have a homeland in Poland and that .1 percent of Jews are Zionists. Both absolutely false. Poland was the country where the most Jews were murdered during the Holocaust (millions) and today Jews represent .05% of the population… https://t.co/nf2NzXVnWE

What the hell did I just watch? Jill Stein, the Green Party leader, says Jews can go back to Poland, that Zionists are 0.1% of Jews (we are over 95% of Jews) that the Israeli army is attacking American students on campus and they are at a risk of a genocide. Doesn’t get dumber: https://t.co/j7JCOFFO1a

“The Jewish people have Poland”? What the hell is that supposed to mean? She’s an educated woman, who obviously knows what happened to the Jews of Poland. https://t.co/wJ54BEwKNF
Jill Stein said the Jewish people have Poland? Huh wot. 95% of polish Jews were exterminated. Can Americans stop wanting to do population transfers on either side. https://t.co/dOaARlnWJ0
