‘We should retaliate with aggression’



A Muslim imam in Wisconsin has threatened that the eradication of the Jewish people is coming, and it will happen at the hands of Muslims.



“By Allah, all of [the Jews] will be killed by Muslims, they all will be executed by Muslims, they will all be killed,” was the threat from imam Alhajie Jallow, during an October 13, 2023, sermon at the Madinah Community Center in Madison, according to a report from the Middle East Media Research Institute.


The organization monitors reports throughout that region of the world, and offers reports and analysis of what is appearing there.



MEMRI, which posted the video on its site, explained, “Imam Alhajie Jallow said in an October 13, 2023 Friday sermon at the Madinah Community Center in Madison, Wisconsin and posted on the center’s YouTube channel, that the Muslim ‘brothers’ in Gaza are heroes. He said that only Jihad could bring glory and victory to the Muslims, not contracts or agreements, and that every Muslim should be a soldier today.



“Alhajie continued to say that all the Jews will be killed, executed by the Muslims and that this is a divine promise.”



His comments included:



“We neglected the principle of support which is Jihad for the sake of Allah. The only way that we can stop [oppression] is to face the enemy the way they faced us. They face us with aggression, we should retaliate with aggression. Allah said in the Quran: ‘Fight in the path of Allah those who fight against you.’ [They] will fight, they will defend their religion, they will defend their land, not with their tongues, but with their blood.”



“Each one of us should be a soldier today. So I… You know Jihad… They will try everything, but it’s only Jihad that can bring victory. Not contracts, not agreements, not alliances – not all of these things.”



He urged jihad multiple times: “The only thing that can bring glory to this Islamic nation is the Jihad, which is mentioned in the Quran and the hadiths of the Prophet Muhammad. The only thing that can bring honor and glory to this nation is Jihad.”



“Our brothers in Gaza are heroes! By Allah, they are warriors, heroes, they are men, just like the Companions. They do not fear death,” he said.



He accused Jews of being criminal.



“By Allah, all of them will be killed by Muslims. They all will be executed by Muslims. They will all be killed, this is a divine promise that will inevitably be fulfilled. This is a promise from Allah and it is going to happen. They will all be killed. They will all be killed, and on that day, the believers will rejoice in Allah’s victory.”

On Monday, thousands of anti-Israel protesters marched in New York City for a “Flood Manhattan for Gaza MLK Day march for healthcare.”



Organized by Within Our Lives Palestine, one of their targets during the march for “complicity in genocide” was Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, renowned for their care of cancer patients and for their pediatric hospital.



One protestor pointed at the hospital and shouted through a bullhorn, “Another complicit institution, Memorial Sloan Kettering Center,” while the crowd yelled “Shame!”



The footage shows the agitator pointing to the windows where staff, cancer patients battling for their lives, and young children stood looking out at the crowd, “Make sure they hear you. They’re in the windows.”

In one video, children can be seen looking out the window.

The protesters also targeted Mt. Sinai Medical Center for “supporting Zionism” and “genocide.”



According to The New York Post,



One Jewish resident on the Upper East Side told The Post she was “terrified” after a pair of cops had to escort her and her small dog out of a chanting crowd near East 87th Street.



“I thought I was in Germany in 1939,” said the 74-year-old resident, who declined to give her name.



The woman was referring to the year Adolf Hitler invaded Poland, sparking World War II. Before 1939, his regime began arresting Jews and sending them to concentration camps.



“I’m astounded. I think it’s horrific,” she added.

Rutgers University Students Masked Like Terrorists Issue Demands Over School’s Stance on Israel (VIDEO)

By Mike LaChance
Jan. 19, 2024 9:20 pm





Rutgers University students who are part of the campus chapter of ‘Students for Justice in Palestine’ recently issued a set of demands to the school over its stance on the continuing conflict between Israel and Hamas.



The students are masking their faces with Keffiyehs and look like Middle Eastern terrorists.



Do you think their parents are proud? Is this how their families expected things to go when they sent them off to a prestigious school like Rutgers University?



The Daily Caller reported:


Masked Students for Justice In Palestine Members Demand Rutgers Cut Ties With Israel In Press Conference



Masked Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) members listed new demands for a Rutgers University campus during a press conference Wednesday, which included an order for the school to cut ties with Israel.



Video footage posted on Twitter by a citizen journalist showed three students covering their faces with what appeared to be keffiyehs, or traditional Arab headscarfs. The students led the press conference at the Rutgers University New Brunswick campus.



The student stood in front of a sign that said, “Rutgers profits off of Palestinian suffering” while calling out the school for previously banning the group and listing new demands they claimed need to be met.



“We recognize the attempted suspension of our organization is nothing short of a political posturing by Rutgers University in response to Zionist pressure. From the beginning, Rutgers knew they could not legally uphold our suspension,” one of the students stated. “In order to silence our just activism the Rutgers administration has treated their Palestinian students with malice and disregard — either reproducing vicious anti-Palestinian racism and Islamophobia or allowing it to foster when students report it.”



Rutgers University previously suspended the New Brunswick SJP group back in December due to complaints the chapter was allegedly disrupting campus life as well as making students feel unsafe, according to NorthJersey.com.

Jews attacked in London; Police respond only after being called 10 times

O Hashem, smash their teeth in their mouth; shatter the fangs of lions, Hashem;

PSALMS

58:7

(THE ISRAEL BIBLE)


JANUARY 22, 2024


Tehilla and two friends say they were attacked in Leicester Square by a group of “15 to 20” people after being overheard speaking Hebrew, and were told by police “you’re not the only ones to call tonight.”



Three Jews, all in their 20s, were violently attacked in Leicester Square in central London early on Sunday morning. The victims were reportedly targeted after being overheard speaking Hebrew.



Tehilla, 28, told the Telegraph about the harrowing experience. Despite making 10 distress calls to the Metropolitan Police fearing for her life, no officers responded, she said.



En route to a nightclub, the trio initially sought to defuse the situation when accosted for speaking Hebrew and opted to walk away. The three were confronted again about 2 a.m., this time with threats and offensive language in Arabic.



“They heard us talking and said, ‘Are you Jewish?’” Tehilla told the paper. “I said, ‘Yes, I’m Jewish.’ And then they started chanting ‘Free Palestine’, and [expletive] Jews, all this kind of swearing at us.”


Tehilla was disheartened by the police’s lack of immediate response to her repeated calls.



“They don’t really care. They kept saying ‘I’m sorry. It takes some time, you are not the only one that called tonight,’” she said, expressing shock at the incident.



According to the Daily Mail officers arrived at the scene only after 28 minutes had elapsed.



A friend of the victims claimed that police did not show up at the hospital, where the victims were being treated, despite assurances they would do so.



Police arrived at Tehilla’s residence some 16 hours after the first call.

Detective Superintendent Lucy O’Connor stated that the incident is under investigation as an antisemitic hate crime. She expressed regret over the delayed police response, emphasizing the commitment to combating hate crimes in the city.



“I know how upsetting such inexcusable violence is for anyone who was injured or who witnessed the incident, and also for the wider community. I share their concerns,” said O’Connor.



The police urged witnesses to come forward and pledged to speak with the victims to gather statements.

Jewish Comedian Jerry Seinfeld Targeted by Pro-Hamas Mob in NYC: ‘Nazi Scum!’

Frank Bergman
February 26, 2024 - 11:55 am


Legendary sitcom star Jerry Seinfeld was met by an aggressive mob of angry pro-Hamas protesters who yelled out anti-Semitic obscenities at the Jewish comedian as he left an event in New York City.



Seinfeld was leaving Saturday’s annual State of the World Jewry event with Free Press founder Bari Weiss when he was targeted by the crowd that had gathered outside.



Video of the incident on the Upper East Side shows protesters accusing Seinfeld of being a “genocide supporter.”



Others are heard shouting “Nazi scum” at the Jewish star.



“Genocide supporter, you support genocide!” protesters yelled at Seinfeld as he left an event, per footage shared by FNTV.



“F— you, you support genocide,” another protester yelled as Seinfeld left the venue.



“Nazi scum!” other demonstrators chanted.



“The small crowd of protesters rallied outside the community center that was hosting Weiss, who was giving the 92Y’s annual State of the World Jewry address,” The New York Post reported Monday.



“Protesters were critical of Weiss, a strong supporter of Israel, and tried to connect her to the death of Palestinian professor and poet Refaat Alareer, who was killed in Gaza in December in an Israeli airstrike,” the report continued.



WATCH:

This is not the first time that Seinfeld has faced verbal harassment from protesters in the wake of the war between Israel and Hamas.



As Slay News reported, pro-Hamas protesters marching through downtown Syracuse in December protested Seinfeld’s stand-up show outside the Landmark Theatre.

Likewise, they accused the star of being “complicit in genocide” over his support for Israel.



According to The Daily Orange, an independent student newspaper at Syracuse University, protesters called for a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas and an end to all U.S. aid to Israel.



They also condemned House lawmakers for passing a resolution in December that declared anti-Zionism as anti-Semitism.



Democrats remain divided over the Israel-Hamas war, meanwhile.



President Biden facing significant pushback from protesters at his speeches.



That division has some Democrat strategists worried about Biden’s chances in the upcoming presidential election.



Muslim voters in Michigan, a swing state, have expressed outrage over Biden’s ongoing support for Israel, with some even accusing him of enabling genocide.



Arab Americans living in Michigan have traditionally been reliable Democrats, with Biden carrying over 75% of the vote in the Arab-majority city of Dearborn in 2020.



That voting bloc is now less reliable, however.



Some members of the community have now launched an “abandon Biden” campaign in protest of his handling of Israel’s retaliatory war in Gaza.

Angry Pro-Palestinian mob shut down a speech organized by Jewish students on the UC Berkeley campus on Monday night.

Pro-Palestinian goons threatened and assaulted Jewish students at UC Berkeley during their campus speaking event, “Israel at War” at the far left school.



The violent pro-Palestinian mob pounded on doors, assaulted Jewish students, broke glass windows, and forced the Jewish students to flee through tunnels for their own safety.



The Jewish students were forced to flee the building through a campus tunnel to escape the violent leftist mob.



Breitbart.com reported:



Jewish students at University of California-Berkeley (UC Berkeley) were forced to leave campus after a mob of pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel protesters shut down their speaking event featuring Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) soldier Ran Bar-Yoshafat.



A speaking event, titled “Israel at War: Combat the Lies,” at Zellerbach Playhouse on the UC Berkeley campus was shut down Monday night after a mob of protesters stormed the area chanting, “Long live the Intifada!” and breaking glass on the doors of the building in which the event was set to be held.



Richie Greenberg posted video of the far left Jew-hating protesters pounding on the glass doors before they broke the glass last night.

At least two Jewish students were assaulted by the pro-Palestinian mob.



The Jewish students were forced to evacuate the building through campus tunnels.

Singer Charlotte Church Leads Choir, Including Children, in Genocidal Song Calling for Eradication of Israel (Video)

By Margaret Flavin
Feb. 27, 2024 7:00 pm

Welsh musician and actor Charlotte Church, 38, appeared at a “Sing for Palestine” event in South Wales on Saturday and led a choir of about 100 people, which included children, in singing a protest chant calling for the destruction and eradication of Israel.



Video from the event shows Church in a keffiyeh leading the group with a song version of the “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” chant.

On Monday, during an Instagram Live, Church said, “Just to clarify my intentions there, I am in no way antisemitic. I am fighting for the liberation of all people. I have a deep heart for all religions and all difference.”



“It was a beautiful, beautiful event. But unfortunately, the powers that be can’t have that. [They] can’t have such a powerful symbol of resistance as what we worked towards on Saturday.”



According to The Guardian, on Monday evening, Church told Novara Media she “hates the idea that anybody thinks I am at all antisemitic or trying to make things more divisive.”



Adding, “But I stand by everything that we sang on Saturday, it was really beautiful.”



The Campaign Against Antisemitism has called for an investigation by the Charity Commission and spoke with The Daily Mail:



‘The genocidal chant ‘From the River to the Sea’ refers to the Jordan River and Mediterranean Sea, and only makes sense as a call for the destruction of the world’s only Jewish state – and its replacement with a Palestinian state. It is a call for the annihilation of half the world’s Jews, who live in Israel.



‘Since 7th October, when Hamas committed their barbaric terrorist acts, we have heard this chant on the streets of Britain during anti-Israel marches, accompanied by all manner of anti-Jewish racism.



‘Singing ‘From the River to the Sea’ is not standing up for human rights. At best Charlotte Church has been tone deaf, but at worst she is using the voice for which she is so well known to fan the flames of hatred. You cannot stoop lower than using your stardom to teach kids to sing extremist lyrics in a village hall.’



Church rose to fame at an early age releasing her debut album, Voice of an Angel, when she was only 12 years old and made Church the youngest artist in history with a number 1 album on the British classical crossover charts.

Pakistani Imam Preaches Jew-Hate in Belgian Parliament

by Drieu Godefridi

February 28, 2024 at 5:00 am



Three months to the day after Hamas's bloodthirsty massacre of Jews, an Islamist preacher from Pakistan comes to the rostrum of the Brussels Regional Parliament, in the capital of the European Union, to chant verses from a sura celebrating the defeat, surrender and massacre of Jews and the enslavement of Jewish women and children.



For his presentation, Butt was awarded a medal at the end of the same ceremony by Nawal Ben Hamou (PS), Secretary of State of the Brussels-Capital Region, who congratulated the Islamist preacher on the "quality of his integration" into Belgian society.



It is worth noting that this Islamist preacher of Jew-hate does not speak a word of French or Dutch, Belgium's two national languages. What a heart-warming story of "integration".



In a surreal scene revealed by Flemish anti-jihad researcher Peter Velle, on January 13, a Pakistani Islamist preacher came to the Brussels Regional Parliament in Belgium to chant verses from one of the most radical and anti-Semitic suras, Koran 33. The presentation provoked several reactions of indignation, particularly from the centre-right Mouvement Réformateur party (MR).



This sura, which contains 73 verses, was chanted by Pakistani imam Muhammad Ansar Butt. The sura refers to three significant events: the Battle of the Trench (or Al-Ahzab: Against the Clans/Coalition), which supposedly took place during the month of Shawwâl, in the year 5 A.H. (after hegira, the journey of the Islamic prophet Muhammad and his followers from Mecca to Medina in year 622 A.D.); the attack on and subsequent massacre of the Jewish tribe of Banû Quraydhah, carried out in Dhul-Qi'dah, in the year 5 A.H.; and the Muhammad's marriage to Zaynab, celebrated in the same month of the same year.



The Koranic reference to "coalition" is meant the confederation of pagan Arabs, "hypocrites" -- people falsely claiming to be Muslims, without conviction -- and Jews. Generally speaking, this "coalition" ostensibly acts and fights against Islam under the leadership of the Jews, though historically it is usually the other way around.



The tribe that dominates the narratives of this sura is that of the Jewish Banû Quraydhah. Even though not its exclusive focus, Sura 33 celebrates the massacre of the men of that tribe, and the enslavement of its women and children after their surrender to the Muslims.



The verses chanted by this Pakistani preacher from the perch of the Brussels Regional Parliament were taken from a sura whose main purpose is to celebrate the victory of the Muslims over the "coalition" and the massacre of the Jews. This is something of which the Islamist preacher, who presumably knows the Koran from memory, was presumably aware.



In other words, three months to the day after Hamas's bloodthirsty massacre of Jews, an Islamist preacher from Pakistan comes to the rostrum of the Brussels Regional Parliament, in the capital of the European Union, to chant verses from a sura celebrating the defeat, surrender and massacre of Jews and the enslavement of Jewish women and children.



The blowback began when a video circulated on social media showing the imam chanting in the parliament. The event provoked several reactions of indignation.



In the video, Muhammad Ansar Butt, dressed in Taliban style, talks about Islamic victory over the "coalition" for three minutes without the slightest interruption. Given that Belgium is a country that practices the separation of religion and state, the scene, immediately made the rounds of the Belgian press.



To put it plainly, freedom of expression and opinion is the definition of democracy, and members of the Brussels Regional Parliament enjoy it to the full. The problem is that, in this case, a Pakistani preacher who has nothing to do with parliamentarians was given access to the parliamentary rostrum and jumped at the chance to chant a sura whose main purpose is to celebrate the massacre of Jews.



The president of the Brussels Regional Parliament, Rachid Madrane of the Parti Socialiste (PS), immediately reaffirmed the neutrality of public institutions, and stated that "Parliament is no temple to anything other than democracy". He said that he intended to remind Hasan Koyuncu (also PS), an MP of Turkish origin who was behind the Butt's invitation to chant in the parliament, along with other group leaders, in a letter. Madrane continued that he also plans to put the issue on the agenda for the next meeting of the Parliamentary Bureau and to propose that respect for neutrality be explicitly included in the Rules of Procedure.



The MR party said it was shocked by what it saw as the intrusion of religion into the very heart of parliament and called for assembling a parliamentary committee.



"We have been fighting for years for the neutrality of the State", said David Leisterh, chairman of the Brussels MR party. He called for a commission to be set up immediately to withdraw any decorations awarded to Butt for his integration into Belgian society; to clarify who had invited him and why; to determine whether the imam receives public subsidies; to review the list of those awarded decorations and to ensure that there is no contradiction with "our fundamental values".



The incident sparked outrage from the political class, with calls for swift accountability. Georges-Louis Bouchez, president of the MR party, condemned the left's use of sectarianism as an electoral weapon, while federal MP Darya Safai (Nieuw-Vlaamse Alliantie party), who is of Iranian origin, expressed her concern about a "very dangerous development" in Belgian democracy.



Unfortunately, these reactions remain superficial, to say the least. For his presentation, Butt was awarded a medal at the end of the same ceremony by Nawal Ben Hamou (PS), Secretary of State of the Brussels-Capital Region, who congratulated the Islamist preacher on the "quality of his integration" into Belgian society.



It is worth noting that this Islamist preacher of Jew-hate does not speak a word of French or Dutch, Belgium's two national languages. What a heart-warming story of "integration".

Antisemitic Mob Targets Pro-Israel Event at Montreal Holocaust Museum


JOEL B. POLLAK
6 Mar 2024

An antisemitic mob targeted a pro-Israel event at a Holocaust Museum in Montreal, Canada, on Monday evening, with members of the crowd chanting “Death to Israel! Death to the Jews!”, according to Jewish community leaders.

The Jewish Chronicle reported:



A group of “aggressive and physically intimidating” pro-Palestine demonstrators blocked the entrance to the Federation CJA building and Holocaust Museum in Montreal on Monday night to prevent Jewish community members from attending a scheduled event.



According to a statement released by Federation CJA, Montreal’s central Jewish community organisation, the mob surrounded the building in Cotes-des-Neiges where an event titled “Israeli Perspective: Coming to Life” was to take place at 6pm.



…



Featuring Israeli guest speakers Nir Yosef, Ori Itzhaki and Aby Volcovich, the event was part of a Canadian speaking tour designed to “fight against the delegitimisation of Israel” according to a promotional poster shared on social media.



In response, a judge in Montreal banned pro-Palestinian demonstrations near Jewish institutions and houses of worship for ten days.



Canada has seen many vociferous anti-Israel demonstrations since the Hamas terror attacks, including protests targeting Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who has been critical of Israel’s response to the attacks.

Anti-Israel Protesters Succeed in Destroying Priceless Historic Painting

By Allison Anton, The Western Journal
Mar. 8, 2024 5:40 pm

The contempt that far-left protesters show for historical artifacts, specifically priceless works of art, has always been sickening, but now has just gotten despicable.



Picking up where the insufferable climate protesters left off, a group of anti-Israel activists at the University of Cambridge in England destroyed a priceless 1914 painting of Arthur James Balfour by artist Philip Alexius de László.



Posting a video of the incident to their account, Palestine Action, on the social media platform X, the protesters spray painted red paint on the painting and then slashed it without any hint of shame.

The reason for this destruction, they claimed, was to protest the 1917 Balfour Declaration which, in their words “began the ethnic cleansing of Palestine by promising the land away — which the British never had the right to do.”



A spokeswoman for Trinity College at Cambridge released a statement saying that Cambridge “regrets the damage caused to a portrait of Arthur James Balfour during public opening hours,” according to The New York Times.



The statement said police were notified of the incident.



Now, as The Times noted, anyone who’s seen pictures or footage of climate protesters in recent years knows this is not a new method of protesting.



The difference, however, is that the paintings attacked, like Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa or Johannes Vermeer’s Girl With A Pearl Earring, had protective coverings and either suffered minimal damage or no damage at all.



This time, however, these useless protesters extensively damaged a priceless painting, filmed that destruction and uploaded it to X, condemning the views of the dead man depicted with all the righteous indignation of an Old Testament prophet.



What do these protesters destroying works of art think they’re going to accomplish?



They achieve notoriety, sure, but most people in the world who aren’t zealots of their cause won’t be convinced by a video of self-righteous liberals defacing works of art.



These protesters don’t want to debate, and they don’t want to argue.



So why do they scream at people, obstruct traffic and destroy priceless works of art?



They just want to use thuggish tactics to intimidate and destroy.



Of course, this is the kind of protesting encouraged and enabled by progressives, from harassing Supreme Court justices in their homes, to gluing themselves to museum pieces.



In encouraging these kinds of protests, however, what many progressive lawmakers, like, say, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, don’t realize is that they’re playing with fire.



As AOC herself saw last weekend, and as Biden saw on his way to Thursday’s State of the Union address, these progressive foot soldiers will eventually turn on their handlers on a dime.



And those same lawmakers won’t receive any sympathy when that does happen.

Pro-Palestinian protests 'making London no-go zone for Jews'

Counter-extremism tsar Robin Simcox warns of ‘permissive environment for radicalisation’ developing in UK



Mr Simcox said the Government needed to be bolder and move faster in tackling extremist groups, even if they were highly litigious in challenging any attempt to crack down on them.



“That means the Government… be willing to accept higher legal risk if it means implementing policies that keep us safer,” he added. “This is particularly pertinent when it comes to disrupting the activities of those groups who propagate extremist narratives but who lurk just below the terrorism threshold.”



It is understood he believes that universities could take a tougher approach by banning extremist speakers or shutting down events, and that the Government could do more to refuse visas to hate preachers on speaking tours of the UK.



“It cannot only be Government who stands up to these extremists – be it Islamist, extreme Right-wing, extreme Left-wing or other ideological manifestations – but it has the most resources and must take a leading role,” he said.



The Government is not expected to publish a list of the extremist groups that could be caught by the new definition, which encompasses any group or individual that promotes an ideology that “undermines the rights or freedoms of others”.



However, it is understood that ministers are likely to use parliamentary privilege to name the groups in the Commons.



It is non-statutory, not a new criminal definition, so would only affect who government bodies, officials and ministers could engage with and fund.



It would define extremism as the promotion or advancement of an ideology based on intolerance, hatred or violence that aims to undermine the rights or freedoms of others, and would include those who seek to undermine or overturn the UK’s liberal system of democracy and democratic rights.



Any groups or individuals intentionally creating a permissive environment for either of these would also be banned from working with government bodies.

A Mob of Anti-Israel Protesters Swarmed the World Trade Center in NYC This Weekend (VIDEO)

Mar. 9, 2024 10:00 pm






Anti-Israel protesters have been running wild on college campuses and in American cities for months but this weekend, they picked a rather sensitive and symbolic location, swarming the World Trade Center in New York City.



The mob carried Palestinian flags and chanted loudly. Arrests were made as the NYPD tried to contain the insanity.



Cities have to realize this crowd is potentially dangerous and should be taken seriously.



The Daily Mail reported:



Pro-Palestine demonstrators flood NYC on International Women’s Day, storming the Oculus as troubling video shows protestor surrounded by police knocked unconscious in the street



Thousands of pro-Palestine protesters have flooded the streets of New York as part of a rowdy demonstration on International Women’s Day which saw them storm the Oculus near the World Trade Center.



Footage shows the demonstrators clutching Palestinian flags shouting and cheering after they successfully squeeze into the shopping center on Friday.



Once inside they formed a drumming circle and waved banners which read: ’30, 878 dead and Joe is eating ice cream’ in reference to the president nonchalantly slurping on an ice cream cone while being grilled about the situation between Israel and Gaza recently.



Other disturbing footage shows one protester knocked out cold in the streets. The activist is seen lying face down on the ground while surrounded by cops. It is unclear how he got knocked out.



In the background a woman is heard screaming, ‘get him an ambulance, f*** the cops, he’s passed out’ as police attempt to coax a response from his limp body…



The ‘Global Strike for Gaza’ began at Union Square before surging downtown, with later video showing protesters storming the Oculus shopping mall.



See the video below:







How much longer is this behavior going to be tolerated? It’s quickly becoming normalized and allowing that to happen is a huge mistake.

Hundreds of Anti-Israel Protesters Crash Oscars, March Through Hollywood Ahead of

PAUL BOIS
10 Mar 2024


Hundreds of anti-Israel protesters marched through the streets ahead of the 96th annual Academy Awards as they called for a ceasefire in Gaza.



The protesters claimed they were marching near the Oscars ceremony to demonstrate against what they called “Hollywood’s active support of the U.S.-funded Israeli genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.” Per NBC Los Angeles:



The demonstration began around 10:30 a.m. at the intersection of Sunset Boulevard and Highland Avenue. It was co-sponsored by a coalition including the U.S. Palestinian Community Network, Centro CSO, National Alliance Against Racist & Political Repression, Black Lives Matter LA, the Free Democratic Palestine Movement and the International League of Peoples’ Struggle.



The Los Angeles Police Department said at 2:43 p.m. that a dispersal order was issued in the area of Sunset Boulevard and Cherokee Avenue for unlawful assembly. Police were advising the public to avoid the area if possible and to expect traffic delays.



Protesters stressed that their goal was to “disrupt the Academy Awards” and expose “retaliation against anyone in the film industry who speaks out against Israel’s atrocities and war crimes.”






Protesters also scheduled a separate march near the Cinerama Dome just a few blocks away from the Oscars, which was sponsored by Jewish Voice for Peace Los Angeles.



Since the October 7 massacre in Israel last year at the hands of the terrorist organization Hamas, anti-Israel protesters have blocked parade routes, surrounded the White House, and delayed the president from giving a speech at an event in New York.



Recent polls show that Joe Biden will have a difficult time retaining young voters this election due to his staunch support of Israel.

Report: Anti-Israel Protesters Beat Up Jewish Man at Theater in Chicago
JOEL B.  POLLAK
14 Mar 2024147


Anti-Israel protesters outside a Jewish community-sponsored film screening in Chicago on Monday attacked a Jewish man in his late fifties who entered the theater with a small Israeli flag, allegedly punching him repeatedly in the head.




Local ABC affiliate WLS-7 reported:



As anti-Israel protesters tried to block people from entering a Monday night screening of “Nova,” a documentary about the October 7 Hamas massacre at the Nova Music Festival that killed hundreds, a Jewish attendee was attacked. Chicago police are now investigating.



…



The man, who is in his late 50s, said one protester tried to yank the flag from his hand. The next thing he knew, he was being attacked by several protesters.



“A group of them was swinging me around and threw me into a parked car,” the victim said. “I was completely surrounded by maybe six or seven that started punching me in the head.”



The man spoke to local news on camera, but did not want to be identified, and said he feared for his children’s safety.



Chicago is home to a large Palestinian-American community, and frequently features radical anti-Israel protests that rival those in Detroit. Last week, threats of protests forced the cancelation of a musical performance by the Jewish musician Matisyahu, who is openly supportive of Israel (as well as of the broader goal of peace in the Middle East).

Arrests Made After Pro-Palestinian Protesters Swarm NY Times HQ and Printing Plant

By George C. Upper III, The Western Journal
Mar. 15, 2024 1:40 pm

Approximately 100 pro-Palestinian protesters swarmed the headquarters of The New York Times in Times Square at roughly 10:00 Thursday morning, leading to an unknown number of arrests.



That protest followed one a few hours earlier at a printing facility in Queens that was also operated by the Times.



The protests were apparently aimed at the Times’ coverage of the Israel Hamas War, which those involved claimed favored Israel’s side in the conflict.



New York City’s WABC-TV ran multiple updates on the protests throughout the morning. Initially, it wasn’t clear what the second group of protesters was there for.

Some protesters in Times Square who were not arrested, however, remained outside the newspaper’s headquarters, chanting and handing out fake copies of the Times to passersby who wanted them.


According to the outlet, protesters had earlier that morning created a pile of debris with “office equipment” that blocked access to the printing plant in Queens.



Protesters laid down in a chain around 1 a.m. and connected themselves to one another with what WABC described simply as “tubes.”



Some also held signs that, according to the report, showed slogans such as “Stop the presses. Free Palestine” and “Consent for genocide is manufactured here.”



“The action stopped dozens of trucks from picking up newspapers, creating gridlock on nearby streets,” WABC reported. “The protesters refused to disperse for about two hours before clearing the way at around 3:30 a.m.”



The Times told the station, however, that only “minimal disruption” was expected as a result of the protests.



It was not immediately reported whether the distribution of any of the other newspapers printed at that location — including Newsday, the New York Post, USA Today and The Wall Street Journal — would be affected.



The Times issued a statement saying that the protesters were, in essence, wasting their time.



“The Israel-Hamas war is a complex and challenging story, and we receive criticism from each side,” the newspaper claimed, according to WABC. “We are open to good-faith disagreement but firmly reject any assertion that our coverage displays bias.



“We support the rights for groups and individuals to express their point of view, even when we disagree with it as it relates to our coverage, but will not let critics or advocacy campaigns sway us from independent reporting,” the Times added in its statement.



The Israel Hamas War began when Hamas launched a surprise attack against civilian targets on Oct. 7, 2023, killing over 1,130 Israelis and taking 253 Israelis and foreign nationals, including women, children and seniors, hostage. It was the deadliest day in Israeli history.



In response, Israel declared a state of war and launched a ground invasion of the Gaza Strip on Oct. 27 with the stated intention of destroying Hamas, which the U.S. designated as a terrorist organization in 1997.

Hate crimes skyrocket by 93% in Toronto following October 7

Anti-Jewish targeted hate crimes have risen drastically in Tronto since the start of 2024 and since the October 7 Hamas perpetrated massacre. 989 hate crime calls have been reported.

Updated: MARCH 18, 2024 17:56




Hate crimes in Toronto, Canada, have increased by 93% since the October 7 massacre when compared to the prior year, and most of the incidents were antisemitic, Toronto Police Chief Myron Demkiw said on Monday morning in an update to the Toronto Police Services Board.



“It has been 163 days since the Middle East crisis began, and the impact of the geopolitical unrest abroad continues to affect people worldwide, including in Canada and right here in Toronto,” said Demkiw. “We are laser focused on the task at hand: keeping the city safe.”



Police have responded to 989 hate crime calls since October 7; there have been 304 since the beginning of 2024. This marks an increase of 225 calls from the same time the previous year. There have been a total of 84 confirmed hate crimes since the year began, an 83% increase compared to 2023.



Anti-Jewish crime accounted for most targeted hate crimes in 2024

Anti-Jewish crime accounted for more hate crimes than any other category in 2024 and preceding years. February was the month with the highest number of antisemitic incidents in the last three years, according to the police. There have been a total of 47 antisemitic hate crimes in Toronto since the year began.



“While we saw a reduction in calls for service for hate crimes in December and January, we have seen a significant increase in February, with a 67 percent rise in calls,” said Demkiw. “Of the 84 hate crimes so far in 2024, 56 percent are antisemitic. Last month saw the highest number of antisemitic occurrences in the last three years.”



Demkiw said that the second-highest bias category was crimes targeting LGBTQ+ people, followed by anti-black racism and Islamiphobia. The police said that there have been five anti-Muslim, anti-Arab, or anti-Palestinian hate crimes this year, an increase of one from the same time last year.


“While underreporting of all forms of hate crimes is a concern, I know from talking to people in the community that Islamophobia is a significant concern, and given our statistics, I am concerned about significant underreporting in this regard,” said Demkiw.



There have been a total of 69 arrests and 173 charges laid related to hate crime incidents since October 7. Twenty-five percent of the charges were mischief-related, 17 percent were for uttering threats, and 16 percent were assaults.



Twenty-four protest-related arrests and 30 associated charges have been made since October 7.



Since October 7, there have been “342 hate-related graffiti occurrences,” according to the police.



“There was a spike in hate-related graffiti in October and November 2023, and although the numbers began to decline over the following few months, there was another peak in February 2024,” said the police.

Michigan Imam: We Muslims Will Yet ‘Slaughter’ the Jews ‘Like Sheep’


JOSHUA KLEIN
21 Mar 2024

Muslims will yet “slaughter” the Jews “like sheep” when the opportunity arises, according to a Michigan Islamic cleric who appealed to Allah, seeking to become “soldiers” for Islam in any form desired, including death.



In a sermon at the Islamic Center of Warren, Michigan, in January, Imam Abdou Zindani warned of the fate of Jews everywhere, pointing to a Palestinian businessman who told a Jewish New Yorker what Muslims have in store for the Jews.

“Don’t worry, don’t worry, Jewish man,” he said. “One day will come, and we will slaughter you like a sheep and the stone and the tree will work… undercover for us, [saying:] ‘Hey Muslim, come, there is somebody hiding here, get up and kill him.’”



The Sheikh was apparently referencing a grisly passage in the Islamic text, known as the Hadith, that reads as follows: “Judgement Day will not come until the Muslims fight the Jews. The Jews will hide behind the stones and the trees, and the stones and the trees will say, oh Muslim, oh servant of Allah, there is a Jew hiding behind me — come and kill him.” The same excerpt is cited in the Hamas terror group’s charter.



He later made an emotional appeal to Allah, begging that Muslims be made his “soldiers.”



“Every way you want us to be — with the tank, with the eye, with the money, with the hand, make us soldiers for Islam,” he said. “Make us die the way you want us to die.”



The clip, which was originally streamed live on the mosque’s YouTube channel, has gone viral in recent days, with many expressing outrage over the radical rhetoric being espoused on American soil.



“They are here. Islamists are in the US. They are preaching Islamic supremacy, terrorism and the destruction of our culture,” warned one X user. “Is the FBI on the job? Do you care about uncontrolled, illegal immigration? How long will people wait?”



“It’s getting late,” he added.



“Sort of says something that Democrats are tripping over themselves to capture these votes, doesn’t it?” asked another user.



“This is the constituency that Biden is trying to placate with his Gaza policy,” one user remarked.

“When they come for you, remind them that you were one of the ‘good Jews’ who protested for Palestine. Maybe they’ll kill you more quickly,” another quipped.



“Dear American Jews, This is exactly what the radical Islamists said to us Jews of Iran in 1979 when Khoemeni came to power — and they did begin executing prominent Jews in Iran. Why do you think we all left Iran?” wrote another user, adding, “WAKE UP and stop this genocidal evil before it’s too late!”



The Michigan-based Zindani, who spoke at the 2023 interfaith Thanksgiving service by Detroit’s InterFaith Leadership Council, is a preacher at the Islamic Center of Warren, Michigan — a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, with all contributions tax deductible.



The matter comes as Arab American voters in various states have expressed intent to “punish” President Joe Biden in elections due to his stance on Israel and the Gaza conflict.



In Michigan, where the president’s loss would likely doom his reelection campaign, more than 100,000 Democrats chose “uncommitted” over Biden in the primary, indicating significant dissatisfaction within his own party.

Antisemitic Riot at Berkeley City Council Meeting on Holocaust; Mayor Condemns


JOEL B. POLLAK
28 Mar 2024

An antisemitic riot broke out Tuesday evening at a meeting of the city council of Berkeley, California, that was to have discussed plans for observing Holocaust Remembrance Day in April.



The Jewish Community Relations Council posted video of the ruckus on X (formerly Twitter), noting the anti-Jewish language and actions of the mob.

Berkeley mayor Jesse Arreguin condemned the riot on Thursday: “I am outraged over the hateful and deeply antisemitic behavior we saw at Tuesday’s Council meeting. Heckling people including Holocaust survivors, then co-opting its message for an anti-Jewish agenda, threats and hate speech will not be tolerated. We will not be intimidated.”

The University of California Berkeley, which is located in the city, has been a hotbed of radical activism for decades — and has also been one of the most antisemitic campuses in the country since Hamas attacked Israel on October 7.



Jewish students report that they are barred by pro-Palestinian activists from entering the main gate of the campus at certain times of day, and that visibly Jewish students are subject to harassment and bullying.



Earlier this month, Congress announced that it is investigating antisemitism at Berkeley, among other campuses.

Miss Israel 2021 Accosted in NYC by Mob of ‘5,000 Lunatics’

Former Miss Israel, Noa Cochva, was attacked by a pro-Palestine mob in NYC.

Over the weekend, Israeli model and former Miss Israel, Noa Cochva, was accosted by a mob of pro-Palestinian protesters in Times Square in New York City.

Translation:”Israel’s beauty queen for 2021 Noa Kochba: I was attacked at a pro-Palestinian demonstration in Times Square in New York.”



Cochva and a group of friends began to sing Israeli songs after they encountered the protesters, sharing some of the moments on her Instagram, including the moment a Hamas cheerleader hit her in the face with a wooden pole.

https://www.instagram.com/reel/C5L1BdoO5zj

A post shared by נועה כוכבא (@noacochva)



Cochva shared on Telegram, “They decided to hold an extreme protest here. We knew it was not safe, we were afraid, but we could not stop ourselves and wanted to show a bit ourselves. We were 10 Israelis against 5,000 lunatics. We had to.”



“I was just standing there and my Star of David necklace peeked through my shirt. The difference is that we are people of reason and they are people of violence. With what logic do they demonstrate for peace with violence?”



Cochva spoke with i24News sharing, “They just wanted to attack us, every single one of them.”

Hamas Supporters Protest NJ Synagogue Event for Organization That Helps Bury Victims of Terrorism (Video)

By Margaret Flavin
Apr. 2, 2024 1:40 pm


On Monday night, Congregation Bnai Yeshurun, an Orthodox synagogue in Teaneck, NJ, hosted an event with ZAKA.



ZAKA, a religious volunteer organization founded in 1995, responds to terrorist attacks, disasters, accidents, and homicides throughout Israel, providing support as trained paramedics and collecting the remains of the dead, including their blood, so that they may be buried in accordance with Jewish religious law.



ZAKA was there to share their work as well as what they saw in the aftermath of the October 7 Hamas terrorist attacks on Israeli civilians.

The Hamas-loving terrorist glorifiers, Within Our Lifetime (WOL), organized a protest outside the synagogue. Yes, WOL organized the protest of an organization that buries the victims of terrorists.



Led by Nerdeen Kiswani, WOL’s slogan is “Resistance, By Any Means Necessary,” and takes its name from the desire for the “total destruction of the state of Israel within her lifetime.”







Teaneck, however, came out in force against the terrorist lovers.

Warning, strong language:







Pro-Hamas agitators have targeted Teaneck in recent weeks. The New York Post reports that, over the last few weekends, “a car rally called ‘All out for Palestine’ has targeted the town, the home of the second-largest Jewish population in New Jersey.”

Rutgers President Abandons Terrified Jewish Students – Flees Town Hall as Pro-Hamas Radicals Shout Anti-Israel Slogans and Calling for an Intifada

By Margaret Flavin
Apr. 7, 2024 12:40 pm

On Thursday, the Rutgers University Student Assembly held a town hall event where two BDS (boycott, divest, and sanction) referendums were up for a vote.



The referendums would sever ties with Tel Aviv University and divest from anything connected to Israel.



The event was disrupted by a group of “out of control” pro-Palestinian protesters shrieking anti-Israel slogans like “one solution, intifada revolution.”

The meeting ended early, and Jewish students were ushered out by police.



A student spoke with Fox News Digital telling the outlet that “Rutgers President Jonathan Holloway and administrators ‘ran away,’ ‘leaving behind the Jewish/pro-Israel students to deal with an unruly and obviously antisemitic crowd, whose attention turned to the Jews after the administration left.'”



“They said police then ushered students out the back door because it was too dangerous to exit the front door.”



Jewish students, who had come to the town hall to discuss their safety on campus with officials, were abandoned by the university president in a room full of radicals calling for the annihilation of the Jewish state.



Rutgers alumnus Bethany S. Mandel shared videos from the event.



“Tonight at @rutgersu the President held a town hall with students. It devolved into anarchy, and he fled with half the police present. Jewish students who came to ask about how the admin would keep them safe on campus were left to beg the remaining police to escort them out.”

“As you can hear, students are chanting genocidal slogans calling for intifada and the destruction of the Jewish state. Jewish 
students were left among this crowd unprotected.”

RIDICULOUS: Pro-Hamas Losers Shut Down Entrance to Chicago O’Hare Airport While Cops Stand Around – Travelers Forced to Leave Cars and Walk to Airport (VIDEO)

By Cullen Linebarger
Apr. 15, 2024 12:00 pm

Pro-Hamas agitators are blocking off a road entering Chicago O’Hare Airport while police are doing nothing, forcing some travelers to ditch their cars and walk to the airport.



As ABC 7 Chicago reported, every lane is blocked on I-190 West between Bessie Coleman Drive and the airport.




Credit: @wearedissenters


The agitators are wearing signs reading “Free Palestine” and “Stop Genocide.” The group Chicago Dissenters, which helped organize the protest, claims they want the U.S. government to stop sending Israel weapons.



On this Tax Day, when millions are paying taxes which fund the ongoing U.S and Israeli bombardment of Gaza, protestors seek to take dramatic action, alongside other @a15actions organizers worldwide.



O’Hare International Airport is one of the largest in the country, and there will be NO business as usual while Palestinians suffer at the hands of American funded bombing by Israel.


The cops, unfortunately, are not doing anything to remove the protesters from the road at the moment.

Video footage captured video of passengers sitting on top of their cars, waiting for the protest to clear out and for the cops to take action. The response would likely be different if this were a pro-police or pro-Israel protest.

Here is footage of flyers being forced to abandon their cars to walk to terminals while the protesters continue their stupid and illegal publicity stunt.

ANOTHER ONE: Anti-Israel Protesters Shut Down Entire Golden Gate Bridge, Backing Up Traffic for Miles – Police Show Up in Riot Gear to Confront the Agitators (VIDEO)

By Cullen Linebarger
Apr. 15, 2024 12:15 pm



The Gateway Pundit previously reported that pro-Hamas agitators are blocked off a road entering Chicago O’Hare Airport while police are doing nothing, forcing some travelers to ditch their cars and walk to the airport. Now, they have completely shut down the Golden Gate Bridge as police arrive to confront them in riot gear.



According to KGO-TV, the protest started Monday morning on Northbound I-880 in Oakland where agitators blocked every single lane. They brought barrels onto the roadway and reportedly chained themselves to the barrels.



In the video below, the protesters can be seen holding signs reading “Stop the World for Gaza” and End the Siege on Gaza Now!”



WATCH:

Law enforcement has since cut the chains, but traffic remains backed up for miles into Marin County. It is unknown when the highway will reopen.



KRON-4 reports sidewalks on the bridge are also closed to bikes and pedestrians thanks to the illegal protest.



Fox News reports police have arrived in riot gear to confront the protesters.

KGO-TV reveals the protests are a part of A15, a worldwide economic blockade in solidarity with “Palestine.” They want an arms embargo and an end to US taxpayer funding for Israel.



KRON-TV reports even more protests are planned in the Bay Area, further inconveniencing residents. One is scheduled at noon Pacific at UN Plaza and Market and Hyde streets in San Francisco by the Marxist, anti-military group Code Pink.



Another protest by the A15 group is planned at the Tesla Factory in Fremont, a possible troll of the company’s CEO (and X Owner) Elon Musk.

WHAT A DISGRACE: Pro-Hamas Protesters Shut Down Road to Seattle Airport, Forcing Travelers to Leave their Cars and Walk to the Terminals (VIDEO)

By Cullen Linebarger
Apr. 15, 2024 8:30 pm1

Pro-Hamas protesters have blocked the road to arrivals and departures at Seattle–Tacoma International Airport (SEA), forcing passengers to leave their cars and walk on foot to the airport.



As KOMO News reported, several vehicles operated by protesters are blocking the road along with multiple people standing in the road.



The airport’s X account urges passengers to use alternate routes or public transit to reach their terminals.

Some passengers walked past the illegal protest, rolling their bags down the road after vacating their cars to catch their flights.



Some of the protesters can be seen holding a banner that reads, “Our taxes are funding genocide.”



WATCH:

KOMO News reveals police and several tow trucks arrived shortly after the protest began. The tow trucks reportedly have started removing the vehicles blocking the road.



There is no word yet regarding whether any protesters have been apprehended. Because this protest is occurring in Seattle, arrests will likely not happen for several hours, if ever.



The protest is part of a globally coordinated protest as KOMO News notes. The agitators want the United States to force Israel to surrender to Hamas in the conflict and cut off funding to the Jewish State.



Earlier today, pro-Hamas agitators blocked off a road entering Chicago O’Hare Airport. At the same time, police did nothing, forcing some travelers to ditch their cars and walk to the airport. They also completely shut down the Golden Gate Bridge as police arrive to confront them in riot gear.



Agitators also shut down the Brooklyn Bridge and tried to occupy a road in Miami before cops took care of business.
