What Kanye West Just Said About Israel Is Causing Outrage According to recent reports, Kanye West is finally apologizing for what he is deeming the ignorant compliment he made about Jewish people. In an appearance on the Chicago-based radio station B96, the rapper told hosts that he was unaware that his comments would be perceived as negative. I thought I was giving a compliment, but if anything it came off more ignorant, West said. I dont know how being told you have money is insult. Still, despite him not understanding, he claimed that he wanted to take that statement away. In case you missed it, his original comment was as follows, Let me tell you something about George Bush and oil and money, and Obama and no money. People want to say Obama cant make these moves, or hes not executing. Thats because he aint got those connections. Black people dont have the same level of connections as Jewish people. You know, we dont know nobody that got a nice house. You know we dont know nobody with paper like that, that we can go to when were down. The incident is just one of several ignorant and insulting comments directed toward the Jewish population. Just three years ago, the rapper publicly compared himself to Hitler. What do you think? Should America stop supporting Kanye?
