Looking like a victim who’s easy to sympathize with can be difficult. For example, check out the response of the father of David Williams, a young man accused of plotting to bomb synagogues and shoot down military airplanes. He could have used just a wee bit more finesse.

Terror suspect David Williams’ father went on an anti-Semitic rant Wednesday after his son and three others entered not guilty pleas.

“The government is blowing this up, especially those Jews,” David Williams Sr. said of allegations the four suspects plotted to blow up Bronx synagogues.

“Those Jews in the media are turning this into something it is not.”
