Harvard Students Outraged after Losing Job Opportunities over Hamas Support
David Lindfield October 21, 2023 - 9:13am Far-left college students are expressing outrage after their support for the Hamas terrorist attacks against Israel ending up costing them future job opportunities. Harvard University students who signed an egregious, terrorism-justifying statement are now arguing that they have fallen victim to “bullying.” The same students are even soliciting financial donations, claiming they need to finance mental health support due to the backlash against their anti-Semitic protests. Meanwhile, law students at New York University, who pushed the same anti-Israel protests, are claiming that denying someone a job because of their support for terrorism is an act of “violence.” The complaints come after a top U.S. law firm rescinded job offers for three Ivy League students after they allegedly signed letters about the Israel-Hamas war. An internal email at the law firm Davis Polk revealed that the company withdrew the offers to the three law students at Harvard and Columbia Universities over their apparent signatures on public statements. “These statements are simply contrary to our firm’s values and we thus concluded that rescinding these offers was appropriate in upholding our responsibility to provide a safe and inclusive work environment for all Davis Polk employees,” said the email, signed by Neil Barr, NBC reported. “At this time, we remain in dialogue with two of these students to ensure that any further color being offered to us by these students is considered,” the email added. It comes as Ivy League universities across the country are embroiled in rows in the wake of Hamas’s terror attack against Israel on October 7. Unrest continues to rumble on at Harvard University after a group of 33 student organizations, led by the Harvard Undergraduate Palestine Solidarity Committee, released a now-deleted statement on social media arguing that Israel’s “apartheid regime” had created the impetus for the war. “Today’s events did not occur in a vacuum,” the letter read. “For the last two decades, millions of Palestinians in Gaza have been forced to live in an open-air prison.” “The apartheid regime is the only one to blame,” the letter continued. Slay the latest News for free! Email Address * We don’t spam! Read our privacy policy for more info. It describes Israel’s subsequent campaign in Gaza as “colonial retaliation.” The letter prompted a furious backlash, with Harvard professors and alumni calling on the university’s leadership to condemn the letter as well as Hamas. link

Fired Miami Dentist Defends Tearing Down Posters Of Missing Israeli Children
By David Greyson Oct. 21, 2023 5:40 pm A Miami dentist was fired this week after video showed him tearing down posters of missing Israeli children after Hamas attacked Israel. Ahmed Elkoussa, who worked for CG Smile was fired after a viral video on Thursday showed him tearing down the posters of the missing Israel kids. He claims that he started to receive threatening messages after the video had surfaced. He even claimed a police officer gave him the idea. CBS News reported: MIAMI — A Miami dentist who was fired over a viral video that showed him and a friend taking down flyers with information on missing Israeli civilians believed to be kidnapped by Hamas said Thursday that the now infamous clip misrepresents his behavior. Ahmed Elkoussa said his former employer, CG Smile in Coral Gables, wrongly terminated his employment, and he is now receiving threatening messages for actions he claims were suggested by a police officer. “It was a viral video that was four seconds,” Elkoussa said. “I was doing something very peacefully for a good cause.” The video was recorded by a man named Blake Warman. He said he recognized one of the men and wanted to document what was going on. After he posted it to Instagram, the video got world wide attention. Warman said he also received death threats and his business, a Bakery in Miami Beach was being given one-star reviews intentionally. Elkoussa’s attorney said he might sue the dental practice for firing him. Watch: This kind of behavior has been on the increase since Hamas terrorists attacked Israel. The wave of anti-Semitism in the U.S. and abroad has dramatically gone up in the last two weeks. link

Woman in New York Is the latest Jew-Hater Caught On Camera Tearing Down Posters Of Innocent Israeli Hostages
By David Greyson Oct. 21, 2023 8:00 pm An unidentified woman in Brooklyn this past week tore down posters of Israeli hostages. This area of Brooklyn has a large population of Orthodox Jews. The woman is seen taking down the flyers one at a time and is confronted by a man who asks her: “Hey, hey, what are you doing?” Without acknowledging him, she continues to tear down the flyers, crumbles them, and discards them on the ground. After telling the woman of the innocence of these hostages, she condescendingly replies to him: “Yeah, they’re innocent.” She eventually becomes frustrated with the man and aggressively puts the papers in front of his camera and walks away with the man she is with. She continued tearing down more flyers even though he kept telling her these people were innocent. There have been numerous instances like this in New York. New York Post reported: An unidentified woman was caught on camera in Brooklyn ripping down posters of people who were kidnapped by Hamas in Israel. The woman was seen tearing the posters from scaffolding this week in Williamsburg, which has a large Orthodox Jewish population. Dozens of flyers lined the green wood and the video shows the woman taking them down one by one. A man, who is filming the interaction, yells out in the video posted to Reddit: “Hey, hey, what are you doing?” She ignores him and continues to calmly tear down the pages, crumbling them up in her hand before throwing them on the ground behind her. These are just a few of the numerous anti-Semitic instances that are occurring in our nation and abroad. The callous response to innocent lives lost and the hostages that were taken is a tragic reality of the condition of one’s heart. Earlier this week, The Gateway Pundit reported at NYU a student who was tearing down posters of hostages taken by Hamas. On Monday, several people were caught on video tearing down dozens of posters displayed on NYU’s campus showing pictures of hostages taken by Hamas after the terrorist attacks on Israel. link

Chicago Art Professor Who Called Israelis “Pigs” “Savages” “Irredeemable Excrement” Issues Apology After Being Called Out for Disgusting Behavior
By Margaret Flavin Oct. 21, 2023 4:40 pm Dr. Mika Tosca, a climate scientist, activist and associate professor at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC), has issued an apology for her disgusting antisemitic comments on social media which referred to Israelis as “pigs,” “savages,” and “irredeemable excrement.” Mika also called Israel’s defense against Hamas terrorists, who killed more than 1,400 people including children and elderly civilians, and kidnapped more than 200 others, “propaganda” that is “downright evil.” Tosca describes herself as a “radically optimistic transsexual climate scientist.“ Image: @mika Tosca/Instagram Tosca’s full post read, “Israelis are pigs. Savages. Very very bad people. Irredeemable excrement. The propaganda has been downright evil. After the past week, if your eyes aren’t open to the crimes against humanity that Israel is committing and has committed for decades, and will continue to commit, then I suggest you open them.” “It’s disgusting and grotesque. May they all rot in hell.” StopAntisemitism shared Tosca’s apology. Image: @stopantisemites “[Israelis] did not — and do not — deserve [what I said], and I was wrong to post what I posted; I know that my words perpetuated harmful stereotypes.” “I allowed my reaction to the violence in Israel and Palestine to take an inappropriate and offensive form, and I am taking proactive steps to learn how I can do better and be better.” “To the many Israeli and Jewish people who I hurt with my words: I am truly sorry. I own my mistake and promise to be better. I hope you can forgive me.” In a statement to The New York Post, SAIC said that it was aware of the “hateful views” Tosca shared on social media and that SAIC “repudiates” them. “Those views are not reflective of the School or the values we as a community share,” officials said. Author Douglas Murray joined Sky News Australia host Rita Panahi and slammed Tosca as a “reprehensible” woman for her descriptions of Jewish people. “She described Israelis and Jews as pigs, savages and irredeemable excrement. Well good luck to her with her optimism – if she was in the Gaza being her transsexual climate optimist self. I reckon she’d last about 24 hours at the hands of Hamas and co.” Academics across the country, however, seem to echo Tosca’s views. Russell Rickford, an associate professor of history at Cornell University, spoke during a pro-Palestine protest Sunday and shared that the deadly Hamas terrorist attack was “exhilarating” and “energizing.” An instructor at Stanford University was suspended for his abhorrent treatment of Jewish students, in the wake of the Hamas terrorist attacks on civilians, during a required undergraduate course called “Civil, Liberal and Global Education.” The university’s president and provost called the incident an “identity-based targeting” of students. link

By Jim Hoft Oct. 21, 2023 7:40 pm1 Oopsie. Protesters in the Kerala region of India held a protest this week in support of the Palestinians in Gaza. This is after Hamas terrorists invaded southern Israel two weeks ago, killed 1,300 innocent Jews, and took another 200 hostage. Hamas murdered pregnant women and gunned down young adults fleeing a concert. The protesters in India weren’t sure about which flag to use so they carried the Italian flag. Video at link

Detroit Synagogue President Samantha Woll Stabbed to DeathJOEL B. POLLAK 21 Oct 2023 3:22 Samantha Woll, 40, board president of the Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue in Detroit, Michigan, was murdered Saturday, and was found stabbed to death outside her home. Update: In addition to being a Jewish community leader and a prominent Democratic Party activist, Woll was a co-founder of the Muslim-Jewish Forum of Greater Detroit, an interfaith organization. The forum posted on Facebook: “Sam was one of the dear founders of this forum. She was such a sweet, cheerful, thoughtful soul. May her memory be a blessing.” The Detroit Free Press reported: A politically connected Detroit synagogue president was found stabbed dead this morning outside her home in the city’s Lafayette Park neighborhood, east of downtown. Samantha Woll, 40, led the Isaac Agree Downtown Detroit Synagogue and previously worked for Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin and on the re-election campaign of Attorney General Dana Nessel, both Democrats. … “I am shocked, saddened and horrified to learn of Sam’s brutal murder,” Nessel said in a statement. “Sam was as kind a person as I’ve ever known. She was driven by her sincere love of her community, state and country. Sam truly used her faith and activism to create a better place for everyone.” President Biden spoke out against antisemitism and Islamophobia in an Oval Office address last week: You know, and here at home, we have to be honest with ourselves. In recent years, too much hate has been given too much oxygen, fueling racism, a rise in antisemitism and Islamicphobia [Islamophobia] right here in America. It’s also intensified in the wake of recent events that led to the horrific threats and attacks that both shock us and break our hearts. No motive has yet been identified, but Jewish institutions have been under threat ever since the Palestinian terror group Hamas carried out a massive attack in Israel on October 7, murdering over 1,400 people. Breitbart News visited the Isaac Agree synagogue in 2019: The Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue, the last functioning synagogue left in the city of Detroit, is a remnant of a community that began moving to the suburbs even before the tumultuous events of the 1960s. Ten years ago, it was slated to close. But it was saved by two young Jewish activists who reshuffled the board and renewed the community’s interest in keeping the facility alive. Today, the synagogue is expanding, and holds regular Sabbath services. The Detroit area is home to a large Arab population, and a large rally in support of Hamas was held in nearby Dearborn on Oct. 12. link

Report: Dave Chappelle Goes on Pro-Palestinian Rant; Cheers of ‘Free Palestine’; Jews Leave
JOEL B. POLLAK 21 Oct 2023 4:25 Comedian Dave Chappelle went on a pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel rant at a show in Boston on Thursday evening — and was cheered by the crowd, causing Jews present in the audience to walk out. A source posted on Facebook: Hello my friends. This is my first FB post in nearly 7 years. With that said, it is also the only social media platform I have, so I hope people still use FB. I would like to share with you an experience I had last night. [My wife] and I went to the Dave Chappelle-Standup Comedy show at TD Garden with three other couples. What started out as a funny and joyful evening for the 8 of us ending with disgust and fear. Towards the end of his act, Chappelle mentioned the war in Israel and how he as a Muslim denounces Israel for its treatment of the people in Gaza and started to add in lots of false and unsubstantiated claims. A gentleman towards the front yelled out “You should shut the F up”. Chappelle lost it on the man yelling, “You do not tell me to shut the F up at MY show”. Chappelle then started on a tirade of his beliefs leaving comedy behind and focusing purely on the politics. While that was awful in itself, what made my heart sink and started to invoke fear was when the crowd of nearly 20,000 people started yelling out “Go Palestine. Go Hamas.” and other related hatful jargon. The audience was cheering Chappelle on during his tirade. I was sick. We were sick. I turned to my friends and wife and said I think it is time to go. We walked out and met up with many other Jews leaving the show. Never in my life have I felt so unsafe and so fearful of what I was witnessing. The words alone were horrific, but we were vulnerable in a public forum. How could we know what would happen? Could violence against the Jewish members in the audience break out? Here in Boston, how was there so much hate for Jews. How could a comedy show provide such a mechanism for people to verbally shout our their hatred for Jews? The unfortunate icing on the cake was that all cell phones and communication devices had to be locked up so there is no video or audio evidence. With that, I am hoping social media can spread this word. If you have made it this far and know how to use social media better than me, please share and see if we can get this to the Boston Globe. Thank you. The Wall Street Journal reported: Chappelle first condemned the Oct. 7 attack on Israel by Hamas militants, but criticized what he said were war crimes in Gaza, according to people in attendance. The comments came up when Chappelle said he didn’t think students should lose job offers for supporting Palestinians. An audience member’s command for the comedian to shut up drew an emotional response from Chappelle, who criticized the Israeli government for cutting off water and other essentials to Gaza and accused it of killing innocent people, according to the attendees. Some audience members cheered Chappelle on and shouted “Free Palestine,” while others yelled, “What about Hamas,” the attendees said. Some in the crowd got up and left. Video of the show has yet to emerge. A spokesperson told the Journal that he was not in Boston the night before, though a schedule for tour dates confirms the show took place. It is possible the spokesperson was referring to Friday night and not Thursday. link

Education Ministry removes Greta Thunberg from curriculum after Hamas support
More than 100 signatures were included in an open letter sent to Thunberg, and several activists also responded to her directly on X. By MAAYAN JAFFE-HOFFMAN OCTOBER 22, 2023 20:46 The Education Ministry has said it will remove any reference to climate activist Greta Thunberg after she published a post over the weekend supporting the Hamas terrorist organization. "Hamas is a terrorist organization responsible for the murder of 1,400 innocent Israelis, including children, women, and the elderly, and it has abducted over 200 people to Gaza," the ministry said. "This stance disqualifies her from being an educational and moral role model, and she is no longer eligible to serve as an inspiration and educator for Israeli students." Thunberg faced criticism over the weekend from hundreds of Israeli climate activists after she posted on X that "today we strike in solidarity with Palestine and Gaza. The world needs to speak up and call for an immediate ceasefire, justice and freedom for Palestinians and all civilians affected." More than 100 signatures were included in an open letter sent to Thunberg, and several activists also responded to her directly on X. The environmental leaders wrote in the letter that they were "deeply hurt, shocked and disappointed with your tweets and posts regarding Gaza" and that Thunberg should "look again at the atrocities conducted by Hamas." "Greta Thunberg is the most well-known climate activist in the world today," responded Adam Teva V'Din. "In her influential position, Greta has expressed a one-sided and inconsistent stance, completely ignoring the cruel acts endured by Israeli citizens and the abduction of hundreds of people. "Due to her position, when Greta addresses a different topic superficially and dismissively, it inevitably weakens the validity of her climate-related positions," the statement continued. "People from all walks of life might think that the shallowness she displayed on the other issue could cast doubt on the seriousness and depth of her climate activism. Those with vested interests could exploit this to portray climate activists as unserious and lacking depth. Therefore, even without addressing the ethical and moral implications she ignored, Greta is no longer a role model for us in the climate change context. We have plenty of other figures to look up to." The Israeli response Finally, on Sunday, a video replying to Thunberg in her language came out. linkIn the video, Thunberg delivers the speech that made her famous, condemning world leaders for not doing enough to combat global warming. However, alongside her words are images of war victims and photographs from the Hamas massacre. The video was produced by "Israel's Story," which works to tell Israel's story to the world.

Before the Spartans’ game against rival Michigan, their scoreboard operators posted a trivia question about Hitler, complete with a giant image of the Nazi dictator. The trivia question apparently asked fans, “What country was Adolf Hitler born in?” Then, a smiling image of Hitler appeared with the answer, Austria, off to the lower left side of the screen. Somebody explain the context behind this for me pic.twitter.com/NnFszUR5Jl — College Football Report (@cfbrep) October 22, 2023 X users reacted to the shocking display as you might expect X users to respond.

1350% Increase in London Anti-Semitic Crimes Amid Israel-Hamas War
BY CATHERINE SALGADO 11:26 PM ON OCTOBER 21, 2023 1350% Increase in London Anti-Semitic Crimes Amid Israel-Hamas War (AP Photo/Alastair Grant) As the war launched by brutal Hamas terrorists on Israel rages on, the violence is spreading—including to London, where anti-Semitic crimes exploded like a Hamas rocket hitting a Gaza hospital. Turns out Western countries were importing the next potential Holocaust through policies welcoming hundreds of thousands or even millions of violent Muslim men. Since the beginning of October, anti-Semitic crimes have shot up a stunning 1,350% in London, Breitbart reported on Oct. 21. The statistics were released before a large pro-Palestinian London protest. Unfortunately, the London police were only able to make 21 arrests. That is less than seven percent of cases where an arrest was made! How many of these anti-Semitic criminals will be repeat offenders? Figures released by The Met on Friday showed that there were 218 antisemitic offences were [sic] recorded in London from the start of the month to October 18th. This represented a “significant” rise over the same time period last year when just 15 incidents were recorded… The Met said that despite their increased patrols in heavily Jewish areas, they have seen a drastic increase of 1,353 per cent in antisemitic offences this month, which they said included “abuse directed at individuals or groups in person or online, racially or religiously motivated criminal damage and other offences.” London police alleged that “Islamophobic offenses” went up 140% compared to this time last year. Community Security Trust (CST) policy director Dave Rich reportedly said, “This huge spike in anti-Jewish hate crime happens every time Israel is at war, yet other foreign conflicts such as the war in Ukraine do not trigger similar outbursts of hate crimes here in the UK. It is shameful and appalling that this still occurs in modern Britain, and yet it happens time after time.” CST rated this jump in anti-Semitic crimes as seemingly higher than the normal increase during Israeli conflicts. Some young Jews in the UK and Germany have left off wearing Jewish religious symbols out of fear of being targeted, Breitbart explained. It’s so tragic that this should happen in Europe—within living memory of WWII! Unfortunately, law enforcement seems infected by some of the anti-Semitism too. Breitbart reported that London Metropolitan Police were accused of making Campaign Against Antisemitism activists “turn off electronic billboards displaying children believed to have been kidnapped from Israel by Hamas. The police reportedly threatened the activists with arrest for allegedly breaching the peace and ordered them to leave the city centre.” UK politician and show host Nigel Farage on GB News critiqued the suggestion that Britain should take Gaza “refugees” on top of the half million refugees already accepted into Britain since 2016. He added some sobering statistics from Denmark for context: Now I’m going to give you some stats from Denmark that are very shocking. In 1992, Denmark gave refuge to 321 Palestinians. By 2019, the government produced results for what had happened to them. 64% of those that have been given refuge had obtained criminal records. 34% of their children had obtained criminal records. And bear in mind, many of the children hadn’t yet grown up and the vast majority were living on welfare. In other words, by accepting Palestinian “refugees,” Denmark merely brought over criminals and drains on their system. As Farage noted, there’s a reason Arab countries around Israel don’t want to take any Palestinian “refugees.” Yet now politicians in the UK and U.S. are calling on their countries to accept Gaza “refugees”! I previously explained how brainwashed Palestinians are from childhood onwards to support terrorism and hate Jews, and how impossible it is to separate the very few Palestinians not in support of terrorism from the overwhelming majority who are. As Lebanese-American Brigitte Gabriel warned, based on her own experience in Lebanon, you can accept only so many Muslims before they launch a violent takeover of your country. London’s current crisis of anti-Semitic crime is an ominous preview of what every Western nation with hordes of Muslim “refugees” can expect. link

“I Was Punched Repeatedly, Kicked in the Head” – TPUSA Member Violently Attacked by Pro-Hamas Mob Near Pro-Israel Event in Illinois (VIDEO)
By Cristina Laila Oct. 23, 2023 7:40 pm Remember when Karine Jean-Pierre said the Muslims are in the most danger after Hamas terrorists killed more than 1,300 Jews in Israel? A Christian TPUSA member was violently attacked by a pro-Palestine-pro-Hamas mob in Skokie, Illinois (outside Chicago) on Sunday. Peter Christos, a Christian, and his fellow TPUSA co-worker were violently attacked by pro-Hamas activists while they were trying to escort a lost, elderly Jewish couple to a pro-Israel event. “I was punched repeatedly, kicked in the head, and hit with a flagpole,” Peter Christos said. A police officer finally intervened and escorted Christos away from the violent mob. There are no reports of arrests related to the violent attack. Skokie police on Sunday made one arrest after a pro-Palestine demonstrator fired a gun in the air during a confrontation in the Lincolnwood Town Center Mall across from the pro-Israel event. WATCH: Additional video of the violent assault against Peter Christos: Here is video of the attack from Peter Christos’s own phone: Here is a screenshot of one of the pro-Hamas militants who attacked Peter Christos: Christians and Jews are being killed, attacked and threatened by Hamas and Hamas supporters. Meanwhile, the Biden White House is defending Muslims. “Muslims and those perceived to be Muslim have endured a disproportionate number of hate-fueled attacks,” Karine Jean-Pierre said without any evidence whatsoever to back up her claims. link

‘Nazi Salute,’ ‘Antisemitic Slurs’ Reportedly Hurled at L.A. Jewish High School Football Team
LARA GWINN 23 Oct 2023 3:22 Members of a Jewish high school football team endured “antisemitic slurs” and “gestures, including the Nazi salute” after Thursday night’s game in Los Angeles, according to school officials. Sarah Shulkind, head of school at Milken Community School, a private Jewish high school in Los Angeles, wrote to parents that that it was “unacceptable” that the Jewish grade school students “felt threatened and unsafe” during the incident, and stressed “deep concern” from the school. “Our football team experienced a variety of antisemitic language and gestures, including the Nazi salute mostly from the stands, although a couple of the opposing players were involved as well,” she explained. Milken school officials said they contacted the opposing team’s school, Noli Indian School, which is a private Los Angeles-area 6-12 grade school that is located on the Soboba Indian Reservation. According to the Milken School, Noli School officials “expressed regret” for the actions of their students and began the conversation with “an unequivocal statement of apology and a pledge to follow through with a plan of disciplinary action, education, and repair”: Throughout the conversation, the leadership of Noli Indian Academy continually expressed regret and sorrow for the actions of their students and community members, committing to discipline and education to combat ignorance and hatred. In a statement to Breitbart News, Noli School Principal Donovan Post said of Thursday night’s incident that there is “simply no place in a decent society for expressions of hate,” and that “unjust behavior” would be “addressed immediately”: Noli Indian School has zero tolerance for any hate speech or hate actions, and strongly condemns any form of either. Any unjust behavior within our community will be addressed immediately and thoroughly. There is simply no place in a decent society for expressions of hate. In a subsequent email to parents, Shulkind praised the “positive conversations we have had with the tribal elders and leadership of Noli Indian School,” and said that Milken students had expressed an interest in sharing Jewish culture and history with the students of Noli as a way to build understanding and tolerance. The antisemitic incident came two weeks after Hamas terrorists launched the “worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust,” killing over 1,400 people in Israel. Hamas continues to hold many hostages, including Americans. Milken students jumped into action to support Israel after the October 7 Hamas terror attacks. The Jewish Journal reported Wednesday: At Milken Community School, students and faculty have busied themselves with hanging Israeli flags throughout the school campus; connecting with alumni who are currently living overseas; and organizing town hall sessions. The school’s senior class president asked for permission to attend the StandWithUs rally, bringing along several classmates. On Oct. 15, a teen-led vigil at Valley Beth Shalom was organized by two students from Milken and two students at de Toledo High School. “In all the darkness, the students have really been the light of it,” Shulkind told the publication. “Their strength, resolve and dedication to Israel is really powerful.” link

The father spoke to KCAL-TV about the attack, saying the intruder was screaming at him, “Free Palestine” and “Israel killed people.” Earlier report by KCAL: KTTV-TV report shows the suspect repeatedly screaming “Free Palestine” and other things about Palestinians. KTTV says they could not report on air other “not suitable for television” things he said. Excerpt from KTTV report: Officials with the Los Angeles Police Department said they received a call from the homeowner around 5:25 a.m. stating someone was inside their home, located near the intersection of Ventura and Laurel Canyon boulevards. The caller added they were locked in a room with four children after a man broke into their home. A short time later, the caller placed a second 911 call and informed authorities the suspect threatened to kill them because they were Israeli. The victims are Jewish, but it’s unclear where they originated from. …Officials at the scene believed the suspect may have been under the influence of drugs. He was dressed in his undergarments at the time of his arrest. As he was taken into custody, he was heard yelling, “free Palestine,” over and over. Excerpt from KTLA-TV report: …The break-in happened around 5:20 a.m. in the 3000 block of Laurel Canyon Boulevard, according to Los Angeles Police. Officers responded after a homeowner called 9-1-1 saying a man had broken in through the front door. According to Key News, a Los Angeles stringer service, two adults and four children were inside the home at the time, and the intruder threatened to kill the family. The husband eventually pushed the man out of the home and into the backyard where officers found him armed with a kitchen knife, Key News reports. He was taken custody without further incident. No property was taken and no injuries were reported, police said. link

‘This Is Truly Poison’: UC Berkeley Instructor Slammed for Offering Anti-Israel Extra Credit
AMY FURR 26 Oct 2023 3:00 A graduate student at the University of California-Berkeley is being criticized for offering extra credit to students for attending a demonstration to support Gaza, according to an email sent Tuesday. Following pushback regarding the options, university leaders responded to make some changes, Fox News reported Wednesday. The initial email from graduate assistant Victoria Huynh read: We’re offering a field trip and/or extra credit opportunity: (1) Students can attend the national student walkout tomorrow against the settler-colonial occupation of Gaza (info attached below) OR (2) Students can watch a short documentary on Palestine and call/email your local California representative using this linktree. … For sections 101/102, we’ll spend some time today talking about Palestinian history in relation to class concepts like colonialism, imperialism, and Third World solidarity. Social media users were quick to share their thoughts on the email, one person writing, “UC Berkeley is well known for their radicalism. This doesn’t surprise me.” “They should start calling our universities ‘anti-American reeducation factories,'” someone else commented, while another person replied, “This is truly poison. Our kids are being poisoned.” In the wake of the backlash, UC Berkeley’s Assistant Vice Chancellor at the Office of Communications and Public Affairs Dan Mogulof said when leaders learned of the issue they took action. “The situation has been remedied, the assignment has been changed and there are now a number of options for extra credit, not just one,” he told Fox, adding students may participate in any local event that is relevant to the subject they are studying. A UC Berkeley law professor recently urged law firms not to hire his “antisemitic” students after Hamas terrorists attacked Israel, leaving over 1,000 people dead, Breitbart News reported October 17. “Would your clients want an attorney who condones hatred and monstrous crimes?” corporate law professor Steven Davidoff Solomon wrote in an op-ed published in the Wall Street Journal. Breitbart News’s Joel Pollak reported Thursday that Brandeis University, which is “a disproportionately Jewish institution in Massachusetts founded after the Holocaust,” saw its student council choose not to condemn Hamas’ atrocities. Breitbart News also said Thursday the USC [University of Southern California] Shoah Foundation will gather testimonies from the survivors and witnesses of the Hamas terrorist attacks of October 7. “The move confirms the attack that saw the mass rape, torture, and slaughter of Israeli civilians is being considered part of Holocaust lineage of events,” the article said. link

Fitness Trainer ‘Proud’ to Tear Down Posters of Kidnapped Israeli KidsDYLAN GWINN 26 Oct 2023 1:22 A fitness trainer told a cameraman he was “proud” to tear down a poster of kidnapped Israeli children as he entered Gold’s Gym in Venice, California. The incident occurred on Wednesday when a man TMZ Sports identifies as fitness trainer and model Zaid Shaat began tearing down posters of Israeli children being held captive by the terrorist organization Hamas. Shaat was confronted by a cameraman who challenged him to explain why he was crumpling the posters and if he was proud of himself for doing it. “I am proud of myself,” Shaat replied. He then told the cameraman to “Get the f*ck away.” On Shaat’s Instagram bio, which he has since made private, he describes himself as a “Lifetime Natural Athlete” whose mission is to “motivate people to live a healthy lifestyle. I am passionate about helping people achieve their goals and dreams.” He is apparently uncaring or unaware of the irony of working out at Gold’s Gym – an iconic fitness brand begun by a Jewish bodybuilder named Joe Gold. Israeli forces numbering over 300,000 are currently poised to launch an invasion of Gaza to destroy Hamas after the terrorist organization invaded Israel on October 7 and brutally murdered more than 1,400 Israelis. link

VIDEO: Hundreds of Alleged “Jewish-American Protesters” SHUT DOWN Grand Central Station in Manhattan – Demand Israel Halt Operations Against Hamas
By Cullen Linebarger Oct. 27, 2023 8:20 pm Cue the jokes about “chickens voting for Colonel Sanders” and “cows voting for “Ronald McDonald.” On Friday evening, hundreds to thousands of Jewish-American protesters shut down Grand Central Station in Manhattan to demand Israel halt their operations against Hamas. This, of course, is exactly what Hamas wants to see. Of course, ground operations against the Islamist terror organization have already reportedly begun so these buffoons are already a bit late. In this video, you can see the protesters have unfurled pro-Palestinian signs and are chanting “let them live” (in reference to Gaza residents) and “ceasefire now” at the top of their lungs. WATCH: Here is another angle of the protest. There were reports of protesters attacking the NYPD as they desperately tried to regain control of the situation. Police finally put an end to the chaos by arresting the unruly clowns as one case see in the video below. They still continued their insane cries even as they were handcuffed. Notice how many of the Hamas sympathizers are wearing masks? Makes just as much sense as their stupid chants. link

UN Delegates Applaud After General Assembly Failed to Pass Amendment to Condemn Hamas Slaughter of 1,400 Jewish Civilians
By Jim Hoft Oct. 27, 2023 8:00 pm The UN General Assembly breaks out in applause after the amendment to condemn the Hamas mass murder of Jews in Israel fails. The United Nations failed to pass a Canadian amendment to condemn the barbaric slaughter of 1,400 Jews by Hamas on October 7, 2023 in southern Isreal. Then they all cheered their vote. They are applauding cold-blooded mass murder. We need to defund the wicked organization. The Prince George Citizen has more. A Canadian-led effort to formally condemn Hamas for the “deliberate cruelty” of its deadly Oct. 7 attacks on Israel went down to defeat Friday as the United Nations instead endorsed a call for a humanitarian pause in hostilities. On the second day of an emergency session of the UN General Assembly, delegates debated the language of a draft resolution calling for a “truce” to allow aid to enter the Gaza Strip and trapped civilians to escape. But the resolution, introduced by the UN’s 22-nation Arab coalition, made no mention of Hamas, the attacks or the tactics employed by a group that has long been considered a terrorist organization by Canada and the U.S., among others. Bob Rae, Canada’s permanent UN envoy, sought to rectify that with an amendment that “unequivocally rejects and condemns” the attacks while demanding the “immediate and unconditional” safe release of all hostages. Jordan’s ambassador, Mahmoud Hmoud, dismissed the amendment as an effort to “whitewash” Israel’s response: a relentless and ongoing campaign of airstrikes in the Gaza Strip, widely seen as a precursor to a ground offensive. “We in this assembly have an obligation to name two things not mentioned in the draft resolution,” Rae said in his impassioned response in the UN’s cavernous assembly hall. “The organization that bears responsibility for those events and its consequences, and the deliberate cruelty of the murders, and the hostage-taking, that is still underway. “Our amendment does just that. No more and no less.” Video at link

Groups Advocating Anti-Israel Protests and Supporting Hamas Attacks Receive Over $15 Million from George Soros
By Jim Hᴏft Oct. 28, 2023 3:00 pm Left-wing billionaire George Soros has funneled more than $15 million since 2016 to organizations that have been involved in pro-Palestine protests, some of which have openly supported Hamas, a group designated as a terrorist organization by the United States, the European Union, and other entities, according to a recent report by New York Post. The New York Post’s examination of Open Society Foundations records revealed that Soros’ grant-making network channeled $13.7 million of the funding through the Tides Center. This organization is a lefty advocacy group that sponsors several lefty nonprofits, some of which have justified Hamas’ attacks on Israel while portraying Palestinians as the real victims. Among the beneficiaries of Tides’ funding is the Illinois-based Adalah Justice Project, which posted a photo on Instagram of a bulldozer tearing down part of Israel’s border fence, captioning it as an “open-air prison.” “A reminder that the Israeli regime has waged 70+ years of war on Palestinians and has entrapped Palestinians in Gaza with a suffocating siege for 17 years. The natural reaction to colonization and oppression is resistance,” Adalah Justice Project wrote. Members of the Adalah Justice Project occupied California Rep. Ro Khanna’s office on October 20, demanding he sign a resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza. The group also co-sponsored a rally in Bryant Park where demonstrators chanted antisemitic slogans and displayed signs reading “I DO NOT CONDEMN HAMAS.” Another group, Desis Rising Up and Moving, received $30,000 in 2020 and was a co-sponsor of the Bryant Park protest where 139 people were arrested. The Post added that the far-left Open Society Foundations also gave $60,000 in 2018 to the Arab American Association of New York, a group co-founded by activist Linda Sarsour. This organization helped plan a protest in Bay Ridge on October 21, where protestors called for the eradication of Israel and displayed the Israeli flag in a trash basket. Other groups that have received funding from Soros include Jewish Voice for Peace and If Not Now, which received $650,000 and $400,000, respectively. Both groups co-sponsored the Bryant Park rally and have been involved in protests at the U.S. Capitol. The financial backing of pro-Palestine groups by George Soros raises significant ethical and moral questions, especially when some of these groups openly support Hamas, a designated terrorist organization. link

99-Year-Old Holocaust Survivor Receives 1,000 Anti-Semitic Messages On Daily Basis Since Hamas Attack
By David Greyson Oct. 29, 2023 3:20 pm Anti-Semitic attacks have exploded since Hamas ambushed Israel earlier this month. It has taken form in many ways including tearing down posters of missing children to making threats to people simply because they are Jewish. This has taken an extreme form in online messages. Lily Ebert, who is a 99-year-old Holocaust survivor has been receiving about 1,000 hate messages on a daily basis since the October 7th attack. She lives in London and runs a TikTok account with her great-grandson. Their main aim is to educate people about the Holocaust and have a substantial following of over 2 million people. The messages they received are very aggressive and cruel including references to Hitler and emojis that show the devil and the middle finger. Her great-grandson Dov Forman disabled the comments on their account because it became unbearable for her. Daily Mail reported: An Auschwitz survivor is ‘worried and frightened’ after receiving a barrage of anti-Semitic abuse online in the wake of the October 7 terror attack in Israel. Holocaust survivor Lily Ebert, 99, receives around 1,000 anti-Semitic messages every day, since Hamas terrorists massacred 1,400 people in Israel and kidnapped 200. Some of the comments she has received include ‘dirty Zionist’, ‘go die’, ‘you guys… prove why Hitler did what he did’ and ‘holohoax’. She has also been told to ‘get bombed’ and been sent devil and middle finger emojis on her widely followed social media accounts. London-based Lily and her great-grandson Dov Forman, 19, run a TikTok account with 2.1 million followers, which educates people about the Holocaust. This kind of persecution is a tragedy just by itself. She had to originally live through persecution as a 20-year-old woman when she was sent to Auschwitz. Lily spent 4 months there along with her family. Two of her sisters survived, but her mother and two other siblings died in the gas chambers. No one who went through such trying times should be forced to relive such evil. This kind of behavior that we have seen unfolds is a testament to the condition of the heart and how evil one can become if unchecked and left unaccountable. The Gateway Pundit reported recently of A Jewish boy in New York who was threated by teens. Anti-Semitic behavior has also been on the increase in cities across the United States. A teen made threats to a 9-year-old boy on a playground with a knife yelling, “I will kill you, Jew.” This occurred on Monday at KIPP AMP Middle School Playground in Brooklyn in Crown Heights. The police and the boy’s mother said her daughter was targeted also by this hateful teen. He also yelled “Heil Hitler” to them. The mother said that was directed at her daughter. This is very disturbing at the very least. We have innocent children being threatened with violence because they are Jewish. The fact that people were yelling “Allah Akbar” to children inside the United States of America is unacceptable. link

TERRIFYING VIDEOS: Muslim Lynch Mob Searches for Jews at Russian Airport in Dagestan; Storms Concourse and Tarmac, Tries to Search Planes After Rumor of Flight From Israel
By Kristinn Taylor Oct. 29, 2023 2:41 pm Terrifying videos out of Dagestan, Russia show thousands of Muslims storming the Makhachkala Uytash Airport in search of Jews after rumors spread that a flight from Israel had landed there. The passengers, reported to be Russian citizens, have not been physically harmed but at last report were still on the plane on the tarmac. (UPDATE at end, injuries reported). The videos, peppered with the familiar cries of “Allahu Akbar”, show the mob at the entrance to the airport, in the concourse, in the service corridors and then storming the tarmac–interrogating staffers. One video purports to be of a Russian pilot warning passengers to not open the plane doors. Another shows the mob detaining a man they suspect is Jewish and taking his phone and passport: More videos below. Excerpt from Ynet News report: Angry crowds of Muslims gathered at the airport in Makhachkala, the capital of Russia’s Republic of Dagestan, where a plane arriving from Israel landed Sunday evening. Current reports indicate that passengers are still on board the aircraft, and it seems all of them hold Russian citizenship. According to reports in Russia, the agitated Muslims are chanting “Allahu Akbar” and are looking to harm the Israelis who have landed at the city’s airport. There are also reports that locals are stopping and inspecting each car in an attempt to locate Israelis. Conflicting reports are coming out of Dagestan. An official from the Muslim republic noted that the plane touched down at 7:17pm. Protesters then approached the passengers to inspect their passports. All passengers were found to have Russian passports rather than Israeli ones. According to another report, the passengers were returned to the plane and are unable to disembark. An official arrived on the scene attempting to calm the situation, but without success. Israeli sources with connections in Dagestan had warned the Foreign Ministry and other relevant authorities on Sunday that such an incident might occur, likely in response to a similar incident that took place the day before. Videos: At the entrance: Storming the doors, pushing police aside: Mob takes over concourse then roams service corridors searching for Jews: Passengers ordered inside as mob roams tarmac: Storming the tarmac: Pilot: Don’t open the doors: Checking the plane’s engines for Jews: Interrogating worker on tarmac: In one of these videos, the mob, while waving a Palestinian flag, attacks an airport police car: Russian security forces deployed at the airport: UPDATE: Bizarre (and scary) Russian media report relayed by Financial Times Moscow bureau chief Max Seddon, “Earlier, protesters in search of Jews were reportedly demanding to check passengers’ passports. Airport staff have now apparently told the crowd to pick three leaders to board the planes with a camera to prove to everyone that there are no Israelis there” INJURIES UPDATE: ABC News reporter Erielle Reshef, “Antisemitic mob tears through the airport in Dagestan, Russia – The Ministry of Health of Dagestan reports about more than 20 injured people at the Makhachkala airport. 10 people are at the hospitals including two in serious condition.” Alleged photo of one victim: link

Cornell University: Police on Scene After Jewish Students Violently Threatened
PAUL BOIS 29 Oct 2023 2:53 Police have been dispatched to a building housing a kosher dining hall at Cornell University after Jewish students received violent threats on an online forum. “Community Threat – City of Ithaca The Cornell University Police Department is investigating posts located on a website that contain threats of violence directed at religious groups across the campus,” read a Cornell emergency alert. The alert went on to say that the locations “were intentionally selected because of the perpetrator’s bias” — omitting mention of specific threats to attack the kosher dining room and “shoot all you pig Jews.” “The investigation is continuing. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Cornell University Public Safety Communications Center at (607)255-1111. Cornell University Police urge the community to immediately report any suspected criminal activity they see by dialing 911,” it continued. The Cornell University Hillel in Ithaca New York said the FBI has been investigating the incident as a possible hate crime. The Cornell Daily Sun reported that students were alerted when violent posts appeared on an online forum from a user named Hamas Soldier with threats “to bring an assault rifle to campus and shoot all you pig jews.” “If I see a pig male Jew, I will stab you and slit your throat,” read one post. Another post pledged to “bomb a Jewish house in retaliation for the murder of 500 martyrs.” Per the Times of Israel: The Cornell police department says it is “investigating posts located on a website that contain threats of violence directed at religious groups across the campus.” Cornell President Martha Pollack sent a statement to students saying that “we will not tolerate antisemitism at Cornell,” the Daily Sun reports. The incident comes days after anti-Israel graffiti was discovered on campus, and amid an alarming uptick in antisemitic attacks on US campuses thought fueled by the Israel-Hamas war. Since the horrific terrorist attack on Israel at the hands of Hamas, which left 1,400 Israelis (mostly civilians) dead, antisemitic protests and incidents have erupted all across the West. One horrific protest, in particular, occurred in front of the Sydney Opera House in Australia wherein people chanted, “Gas the Jews” while waving Palestinian flags. link

Jewish Journalist In New York City Receives Rape, Death Threats From Palestinian Sympathizers, Hires Bodyguard
By David Greyson Oct. 30, 2023 6:40 pm When a young female has to invest in a bodyguard because of the simple fact that she is Jewish, you know society is heading in a dangerous direction. Sports journalist Emily Austin, 22, was interviewed by Fox & Friends on Monday. She explained that she has been receiving rape and death threats from numerous people online. She went on to say that people are even sending her address to her. Emily had originally thought that these threats were coming from the Gaza area. After looking into it in more detail, she realized the threats were local, in New York City. Fox News reported: Israel activist and journalist Emily Austin says online death and rape threats forced her to invest in a bodyguard in New York City as tensions escalate over the tumult in the Middle East. “I’d be lying to you if I told you I didn’t get a bodyguard for the next, who knows how long. I got a bodyguard because of my appearances on TV,” she told “FOX & Friends” Monday. “People are sending me my address. People are sending me rape threats, death threats. At first, I thought, ‘You know what? They’re all in Gaza,’ but they’re not. I looked into these accounts. They are here in New York.” The 22-year-old sports reporter’s concerns follow growing instances of anti-Israel rhetoric in New York and across the world following Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack. Emily Austin went on to explain to Fox & Friends Lawrence Jones that she does not feel safe in America considering how much Anti-Semitism there is. She cited the hate for Jews in Russia and fears the growing hatred hear at home. She was also critical of the defund police mindset that New York has which contributes to feeling unsafe. She also spoke with wisdom talking about Gen Z and how much misinformation they are being given. Social media, especially sites like TikTok are contributing to such things. Then you add the leftist professors to the equation and you have a generation of young adults that are misinformed. The Biden regime can be held responsible for much of these problems. The current and corrupt administration does not care about American Citizens. They are globalists and they hate America. That is largely why we as a country have gotten to this point. The First Amendment does not protect any speech or assembly when it involves violence or threats of violence. The only way we will protect the U.S is to secure the border, stop allowing hostiles into the U.S., and yes, deport terrorist sympathizers. Unfortunately, even Jewish college students don’t feel safe on their campuses. A place like Cornell University is supposed to be for education and for critical thinking. Instead, some students fear for their lives. The Gateway Pundit recently reported on Cornell University and the online threats on Jewish Students. link

Maryland Imam Hails October 7 Jihad Massacre as ‘Great Victory’
ROBERT SPENCER | 8:00 PM ON OCTOBER 30, 2023 Islamic jihadis brutally murdered over 1,400 people in Israel on Oct. 7, and the more an appalled world learns about these attacks, the more the horror over them grows. Oct. 7 will be remembered throughout history as nothing less than one of the bloodiest massacres the world has ever seen. Even worse, we have seen Muslims and leftists all over the world celebrating these massacres, without the slightest concern for the human devastation they have caused. In Maryland, one imam is positively thrilled. The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) recently posted excerpts from an Oct. 21 lecture by Mahmoud Abdel-Hady, a frail, white-bearded and wise-looking imam at Maryum Islamic Center in Ellicott City, Maryland. Abdel-Hady observed that before too long, Muslims will be triumphant, and not necessarily because of bloody massacres such as what the world witnessed on Oct. 7 at all. Soon, Abdel-Hady noted happily, Muslims and other people whom he claims are oppressed by the West “will be the ones in control of things.” This is, he explained, because “we are a greater number.” The demographics don’t lie: Abdel-Hady observed that given the relative birth rates, Muslims will before too long be in the majority in Europe. He explained that the Europeans are “in minus,” that is, that their birth rates aren’t even at replacement level, and European populations are declining. Abdel-Hady is by no means the first to notice this. The historian Bernard Lewis said back in 2004 that Europe would be Islamic by the end of this century “at the latest.” Iranian army representative Abbas Mohammad Hassani said in 2019: “Childbearing in the current circumstances is considered a type of jihad and it would please the Almighty God.” The apparent inevitability of that victory, however, hasn’t dulled Abdel-Hady’s taste for violent jihad. He went on to hail the Oct. 7 massacre as a “great victory,” likening it to the Tet Offensive in Vietnam in 1968, which, he said, shifted the Americans to the defensive and led ultimately to their defeat in Vietnam. And to be sure, if your holy book tells you to “kill them wherever you find them” (Qur’an 2:191, 4:89, cf. 9:5) and that the Jews are your worst enemies (Qur’an 5:82), you will likely see a massacre as horrifying as that of Oct. 7 as one for the win column. What’s more, the global outpouring of support for the Palestinians and the alarming recrudescence of antisemitism is also a victory for Abdel-Hady and his friends. They can look with satisfaction on college and university campuses all over the country, where leftist students and professors have been expressing not just solidarity with the Palestinians against Israel, but even support for Hamas and praise for the massacre. The Hamas victory could now be made complete if the Biden regime and its globalist, socialist allies manage to prevail upon the Israelis to stop their operations in Gaza short of the stated goal of destroying Hamas utterly. After 9/11, there was tremendous outrage and a surge of patriotism among Americans, but that quickly dissipated. The idea that America needed to defend itself against the global jihad was lost to the extent that on the twentieth anniversary of those attacks, media coverage was more focused on Muslims as victims of alleged “Islamophobia” than on the ongoing jihad and its aims and goals. Al-Qaeda recently hailed 9/11 as a “Day of Victory.” The global jihad could be celebrating Oct. 7 as another such day if the West once again falls for the victimhood narrative and allows the focus to be shifted away from the real victims to concern for the allies of the perpetrators as they disseminate false claims of victimhood. If such tendencies prevail today, and they very easily could, Oct. 7 could become the occasion for renewed international pressure upon Israel to make concessions to the Palestinians that will supposedly pacify them and prevent this sort of thing from happening again. That has been the strategy of the U.S. and the West toward the Israeli/Palestinian conflict for decades, and although it has never, ever worked, no one with any power or influence seems to be in a reflective mood in the wake of Hamas’ murderous rampage. The same failed remedies and solutions (most notably the fabled “two-state solution”) are being recommended again. If there is not a massive reappraisal of the conflict and how it can best be approached, Abdel-Hady and his ilk will have many, many more victories to celebrate in the months and years to come link
