As a comic who also "pushes boundaries" part of the deal getting pushback. If you don't want pushback then don't "push boundaries".
The backstory is the reaction to a comic who slurred Chinese and gays and others.
His humor wasn't all that funny, it appears.
But I was just wondering, could I use that phrase on Israel's behalf?
Something like
If Arabs think they can push Israel's boundaries, they can expect pushback
What do you think?

the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees,
which resettles tens of thousands of refugees
in third countries every year.
But Palestinian refugees aren’t allowed to
apply to UNHCR; they are handled by
the U.N. Relief and Works Agency,
an agency created exclusively for them.
And UNRWA hasn’t resettled a single
refugee in its 70 years of existence.
The only option it offers the refugees
and their descendants is eternal limbo:
awaiting a return to Israel that will never happen.”

Mr. Itai Reuveni of NGO Monitor said:
A year ago the world learned that Oxfam,
one of the largest international aid organizations,
had compiled a confidential internal report
documenting how senior Oxfam officials abused
their position to operate a prostitution network
exploiting underage earthquake survivors.
The report was kept from Oxfam’s donors —
especially donor countries—so as not to
damage the organization’s reputation.
Oxfam, by the way, was very vocal in
its demand for an international boycott of
Israel’s SodaStream over its “immoral”
operations in Judea and Samaria.

inadvertently admits that the Palestinian economy
consists almost exclusively of handouts from the

Cash installments to the P.A. [Palestinian Authority]

Israel collects taxes for the Palestinians and
supplies most of their electricity and water.
Many of the real job opportunities for Palestinians

The very first verse of the Biblical Book of
Kohelet [Ecclesiastes] says:
“THESE ARE THE WORDS OF KOHELET [Solomon],
SON OF DAVID, KING IN JERUSALEM.”
Obviously, this is an English translation of
words that were originally written in Hebrew,
the ancient language of the Jewish people.
Remember this when people attempt to deny
that Jews lived in Jerusalem in ancient times.

Abdul Hameed al Ghabin
[Saudi writer and political analyst] said:
“How can we achieve peace if the Palestinian
people remain without a place to call home?
The answer is simple:
Jordan is already 78% of historical Palestine.
Jordanians of Palestinian origin constitute
more than 80% of the population according
to U.S. intelligence cables leaked in 2010.
Jordan is essentially already
the Palestinian Arab state.
The only problem is, the King of Jordan
refuses to acknowledge this.”
