UCLA Student Curses and Cries After Anti-Israel Measure Fails
Washington Free Beacon ^ | February 26, 2014 | Washington Free Beacon Staff

Posted on 02/27/2014 12:08:53 PM PST by tom h

A UCLA student burst into tears and launched into a mostly incomprehensible anti-Israel rant on Wednesday after her fellow students voted to defeat a student council resolution aimed at divesting from the Jewish state.

UCLA’s student council defeated the boycott resolution by a vote of 7 to 5 following an all-night session, according to the blog Legal Insurrection.

Following the vote, one of the divestment measure’s supporters experienced a several-minute emotional breakdown that was caught on tape and uploaded to YouTube.

“I’ve never been more f---ing disappointed than today,” the girl wails through tears, as she shivers and rolls back in her chair.

This is followed by several seconds of incomprehensible moaning.

I had to watch this video twice to assure myself that this self-absorbed little twerp was actually the product of a California family, attending a very privileged university, UCLA.

I expect that she considers her incoherence and tears to be a stellar example of "progressive" thought and expression.

In the meantime, we out here in the real world can just grieve for the future of the good ole USA.

Does anyone else here recall almost to THE DAY that the left strarted using the term “bully” a couple of years ago?

I knew when suddenly I started hearing the term by ALL the lefties that it was a deliberated and organized effort.

Some where, there was a plan made to use the term, and to define their oppisition as ‘bullies’ and to make plans on how to deal with them.

You could see it happen suddenly almost overnight.

Here’s a point to ponder.

Those kids likely have helicopter parents. Those kids likely led incredibly sheltered lives.
Those kids are making decisions that effect the lives of Israel. (significant investment etc via UCLA)

Even better is the statement by Ben Shapiro who crashed this little anti-Semitic Divestment hearing at UCLA and taught the children a thing or two .....

My name is Ben Shapiro. I’m an alumnus of this university. I’m also a local talk show host on 870 [AM] in the morning, and I got out of bed and left my one month old baby there when I saw what was going on here tonight. I’ve never been more ashamed to be a Bruin. I’ve never been more ashamed to be an alumnus of this university than to see this divestment petition being considered at this level.

To pretend this is about occupation, to pretend this is about peace, to pretend that this anything other than vile, spiteful Jew hatred is a lie!

There is only one reason we are discussing Israel and not discussing Saudi Arabia. There is only one reason we are discussing Israel and not discussing Iran. There is only one reason we are discussing Israel and not discussing Palestine. There is only one reason we are discussing Israel and not discussing the vast bevy of human rights violations that happen every day in the Middle East, exponentially worse that what happens in Israel.

Any gay or lesbian that is targeting Israel in this room seems to have forgotten how high they hang gays from cranes in Iran. Every person of liberal bent who suggests that Israel is the problem in the Middle East seems to have forgotten that there is only one country in the Middle East that actually has any sort of religious diversity in it. The countries that are apartheid countries are those that are Judenrein* – like, for example, Palestine.

So, for us to sit here and pretend that Israel is somehow on a lower moral plane is a direct manifestation of anti-Semitism. And to hold Jews to a different moral standard than any other country or group on the face of the earth represents nothing but an age-old and historic hatred for the Jewish people. All the folks here who are pretending that the B.D.S is about anything other than that, I would like to see a poll of those folks, and see how many of them actually believe in the existence of a Jewish state, qua-Jewish state, not as a state like any other, but as a Jewish state. They don’t. They don’t acknowledge that existence. They don’t believe in that existence. They don’t believe in peace. All this is about, pure and simple, is a desire to target the Jewish people.

* “Judenrein” was a Nazi term to mean “clean of Jews.”

Which marshmallow, low-IQ, non demanding, and totally unsellable major was this idiotess loafing for?

Why is she even in college?

What sort of college allows this sort of drivel in the door?

Standards? UCLA don’t need no stinkin’ standards.

Remember folks, she’ll soon carry a degree - - in something - - that couldn’t qualify her (or it) to be a barista. But...it’ll still say B.A and give her some very much undeserved status. That is, if there are enough naive dorks out there who still consider a UCLA degree in something other than a STEM subject to be worth more than your local pooch’s smelly Obamastuff.

I haven’t watched the vid, but this little twat reminds me of that dumb chick in Austin that got arrested for jaywalking.

It's just more projection. You started hearing the term used just as they ratcheted up their bullying of Christians and conservatives.

Yup. The left and the mindless pick a buzzword and runs with it. Remember “Issues?” That is my favorite. I was in Vegas at the time and every wannabee dotcom millionaire was “issues” this and “Issues” that until you wanted to puke. “Issues” made them sound authoritative and intelligent...Not. But they BELIEVED it did...so they rode it like the Lone Ranger on Silver.

It comes down to the propaganda value of repetition. When you don’t have the truth, you CREATE the truth.

Through repetition

Leftists are not very original. Just look at the nightly newscasts and how often they repeat the same word for word phrases against conservatives.

The HOT phrase this year in Florida, at least so far, is "Common Sense" as both Alex Sink and Charlie Crist have used it and Crist had a group of brain dead lemmings holding "Common Sense" signs at his book signing.

Our city has a “progressive” Councilmember who also engages in tearful rants when she doesn’t get her way. I guess it’s a California thing...
