When the pro-Hamas crowd talks about globalizing the intifada, take them seriously. In London, someone or some group distributed leaflets in a Jewish neighborhood. This is what the leaflets said: "Zionists leave Britain or be slaughtered." Meanwhile, in Stamford, England, north of London, a 16 year old Jewish girl "was pelted with bottles and suffered injuries to her head and face in a deliberate and violent attack." (As described by the Jerusalem Post.)
Back to London, there were 2 buses of Jewish kids going home from a Jewish school, when rocks were thrown at them. Four teenagers from another school got on the buses and shouted at the Jewish kids: "Fuck Israel!" And: "Fuck Israel! Nobody likes you! Fuck off you bitches!" Needless to say, the Jewish kids were terrified. Said the Campaign Against Antisemitism: "Is it any wonder that 69% of British Jews now hide visible signs of their Judaism in public?" (Again, as reported in the JPost.)
In Melbourne, Australia, a fire was set at a synagogue. Two people were injured, and, not surprisingly, there was extensive damage to the building. It was reported by the police that the fire was set deliberately. Meanwhile, Australia joined 156 other countries in the UN General Assembly, voting yet again in favor of an anti-Israel resolution. The resolution called for Israel to withdraw from Gaza, the West Bank (Judea and Samaria) and so-called "East Jerusalem."
When the countries of the world vote against Israel, is it any surprise that antisemitism and outright Jew hatred then spreads around the world? If Israel is so bad, then anyone supporting Israel must be bad, and Zionists support Israel. Jewish people who believe in the right for Jews to have a home in the land of Israel are, by definition, Zionists. As I hold the same belief in the Jewish people's right to their homeland, that makes me a Zionist.
In Cape Town, South Africa, an IED was thrown at a Jewish Community Center. Thankfully, it failed to explode. I wonder what the pro-Hamas crowd makes of this story, as reported by The Guardian. They say that UNRWA (the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine) has suspended aid deliveries to Gaza. Why? Because of the "hijacking of nearly 100 aid trucks last month." Even though armed gangs were hijacking these trucks, Israel was blamed. Of course. Might it be Hamas terrorists taking the trucks for their fighters? How dare you ask!
How are things here on the home front? A man in Massachusetts was guilty of threatening to kill Jewish kids, and bomb a synagogue. Here is what this evil man wished for: "kill of all Jews," and "stomping their babies dead in the ground." Lovely.
About 25 people were arrested at the annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade, when they sat down in the street, in an effort to block the huge balloons. Of course, these pro-Hamas protesters accused Israel of genocide. The people who came to see the parade were not amused, with one yelling at the protesters "get the hell out of here!" Meanwhile, the pro-Hamas crowd was shouting "Free Free Palestine." And the now common: "globalize the intifada." Said one Brooklyn cop: "This is a day for families to enjoy and not be interrupted by these a-holes." Thank you, officer.
Joe Biden wanted a black woman for his vice president and he got one. He wanted a black woman on the Supreme Court and he got Ketanji Brown Jackson. Too bad. KBJ (it's easier) recently attended a convention of the National Council of Teachers of English. She should not have gone. The speakers included pro-Hamas "activists." One of the speakers tore down posters of the hostages being held by Hamas. One, with a Palestinian flag, said: "This is the only flag I fly with pride." I've said it many times before - the Israel haters are also America haters. So, obviously, this person would have no pride in the American flag. Some of these people justified the October 7 assault on innocent Israelis. And they teach our children. Disgusting! Does Biden's SCOTUS pick agree with these pro-Hamas people? I'd like to know.
I'll end with this. November 29 was the 77th anniversary of the UN General Assembly vote to partition the British Mandate into a Jewish state and an Arab state. Israel then declared their independence as a state in May, 1948. A mere 76 years ago - a single lifetime. Said Democratic Congressman Ritchie Torres (of NY's 15th district, and a democrat not afraid to speak up on behalf of Israel): "Never in human history has a nation of so few done so much so quickly in the face of so many threats to its survival and security. The achievements of the Jewish state are nothing short of astonishing." Some might say miraculous. Thank you Congressman Torres.
