Jews, who are 'tyrannical' and the 'brothers of apes and pigs' should be annihilated (...part of first paragraph deleted by my stupid browser) cording to a Florida Islamic cleric, wing “worse than the Nazis.” During a sermon at the North Miami Islamic Center in Florida in late April, Imam Di called for Allah to support “our oppressed brot well as for the total annihilation of Jews, whom he referred to as “apes and pigs” — a phrase that radical Islamists have historically used to describe Jews. “Oh Allah, annihilate the tyrannical Jews… for they are no match for You,” he...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Facing heat over its military support for Israel's war, the Biden administration is due to deliver a first-of-its-kind formal verdict this week on whether the airstrikes on Gaza and restrictions on delivery of aid have violated international and U.S. laws designed to spare civilians from the worst horrors of war.A decision against close ally Israel would add to pressure on President Joe Biden to curb the flow of weapons and money to Israel's military. The Democratic administration took one of the first steps in that direction in recent days, when it paused a shipment of 3,500 bombs...

Turkish Foreign Minister: We must stop Israel. Either by peace or by force.

They're studying Facebook posts. They're using frame-by-frame video screenshots of faces to match with gargantuan databases of named faces. They're seeking and taking tips from "friends" and relatives and ex-boyfriends. For the UCLA Jewish students who got into a scrap with pro-Hamas illegal campout protestors, no doubt after hearing a slew of antisemitic statements and being blocked from attending class, they're doing exactly what they did to identify and hunt down January 6 protestors. According to the Los Angeles Times, which reports this like it was a good thing: It is shaping up to be perhaps the biggest case in...

Court documents showed Kandic had multiple responsibilities, including recruiting foreign fighters (ISIS photo) On January 4, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) called for worldwide targeting of Jews and Christians, which it later claimed resulted in 610 people wounded or killed in 110 attacks across 12 countries. Avril D. Haines, the Director of National Intelligence, told a Senate panel, “The threat from ISIS remains a significant counterterrorism concern,” while noting that the majority of its attacks have been carried out by “parts of ISIS that are outside of Afghanistan.” The main body of ISIS is active in Turkey,...

The violent, antisemitic protests at some of the nation’s elite colleges has forced top corporate recruiters to assess the quality of the education dispensed at these places — and whether they should look elsewhere for job candidates, the Post has learned. Activist investor Daniel Loeb, a Columbia University graduate, has begun to reconsider whether to focus offering jobs at his hedge fund to fellow alums and other Ivy League schools like Harvard, Yale, Penn amid their tepid responses to the protests on their campuses, he told The Post. “We’ve always looked beyond the target schools but we’re doing it even...

President Joe Biden condemned “antisemitic protests” happening on college campuses, while attempting to see the perspective of Palestinians, during an Earth Day event on Monday held at Prince William Forest Park in Triangle, Virginia. When asked by a reporter if he condemns the anti-Israel protests happening on college and university campuses around the United States, he said he did, while also condemning people “who don’t understand” what’s happening “with the Palestinians.”

Nearly half of Gen Z voters are sympathetic toward Hamas, and one-third do not believe Israel has the right to exist as a nation, a recent Summit.org/RMG Research survey found. The survey, released on the first day of Passover, showcased the startling difference between the sentiments of all voters and Gen Z voters specifically, those born between 1997 and 2012. The survey asked respondents, “Do you believe that Israel’s wealth and military power make its campaign against Hamas unjust?”

Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar’s daughter, Isra Hirsi, revealed Thursday she has been suspended from Barnard College over her involvement in anti-Israel protests on Columbia University’s campus. “I’m an organizer with CU Apartheid Divest @ColumbiaSJP, in my 3 years at @BarnardCollege I have never been reprimanded or received any disciplinary warnings,” the 21-year-old wrote on X. “I just received notice that I am 1 of 3 students suspended for standing in solidarity with Palestinians facing a genocide.” Hirsi and the two other students – identified as Maryam Iqbal and Soph Dinu — received notice of their suspension from Barnard Dean, Leslie...

Sunday is the Jewish holiday of Purim, a commemoration of the defeat of Haman, a king’s aide under the Achaemenid Empire who planned to massacre all of the Jews — and Jews in Teaneck, NJ, are on edge that the celebration will lead to a renewed violence in their community. They’re particularly worried about their children being targeted. Everything old is new again. 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. The meetup location of the protesters is in Paterson, at...

Two Orthodox Jewish men were pelted with unknown objects while walking on the Upper West Side on Sunday, cops and a city councilman say — the third possible antisemitic incident in the neighborhood over the weekend. The two Jewish men, ages 65 and 19, were wearing “traditional garb including a headscarf and hat” while waiting to cross the north crosswalk at West 100th Street and West End Avenue in Manhattan when a passing car tossed the objects at them a little after 9 p.m., according to police. The men told cops that the objects caused temporary pain but did not...

Democrat Party media hacks flipping out for being called out as the anti-Israel haters they are. As they use Hamas numbers, trash Netanyahu, and back Biden’s horrendous war on Israel. How dare Trump or anyone notice such flagrant and grotesque behavior by these frauds.Dana Bash and the other narcissistic media Democrats must be called out for what they’re doing and saying. Never Again must anyone be intimidated into silence while they spew their disgusting poison. No more. No more 1940s New York Times-like betrayal of the Jews by media self-haters.https://mediaite.com/news/cnns-dana-bash-unflinchingly-rips-trump-anti-semitic-and-incredibly-dangerous-comment-about-jews-calling-it-what-it-is

The UN Human Rights Council has released a report detailing a “black list” of international companies operating in Judea and Samaria. The council listed 112 companies which it claims violate international law by continuing to operate in the Jewish communities in the area, including Airbnb, Expedia, and TripAdvisor. Foreign Minister Yisrael Katz responded to the black List, saying that “the UN Human Rights Council’s announcement of the “black list” of business companies is a shameful surrender to the pressures of countries and organizations interested in hurting Israel, even though most countries in the world have refused to join this political...

Harvard Law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz blasted former US President Barack Obama after Obama called for an end to “Israeli occupation”. Link to Maria Bartaromo interview on X (twitter) Speaking to Fox Business in an interview, Dershowitz said, "I think he always had a deep hatred of Israel in his heart. He hid it very well. He called me to the Oval Office and he said to me, 'Alan, you've known me for a long time. You know I have Israel's back.' I didn't realize he meant to paint a target on it." ....He should apologize, but he won't." Dershowitz’s...

So, it’s come to this. Some Jewish grads from our finest universities have learned nothing from our finest modern playwright, David Mamet. Some time ago, with vigor, he announced, “Why I am no longer a Brain-Dead Liberal.” He found out that people were generally not good at heart. Currently, a highly regarded Jewish professor at MIT quit his job because the place is run by brain-dead liberals. From Prof Karchmer, we get the inside scoop about being Jewish on campus, post Oct. 7, when Jews expected a touch of world sympathy, but instead, find themselves “a people who dwell alone.”...

Over 260 Jewish Hollywood artists have sent the Academy Awards a letter claiming that they are being excluded from its diversity standards. The letter, which states the exclusion is 'discriminatory,' was created by the Jew in the City's Hollywood Bureau for Jewish Representation and was sent to the Academy yesterday. It has been signed by actors including David Schwimmer, Debra Messing, Ginnifer Goodwin, Mayim Bialik and Josh Gad; comedians, writers and producers. In 2020, notably after George Floyd's death, the Academy issued a set of 'standards' as part of its diversity initiative. These standards recognized commonly 'underrepresented' identities, including women,...

A report by the Washington Free Beacon claims that the US Justice Department issued a “stand-down order”, telling federal law enforcement and US attorneys to stop investigating “incitement, violence, and vandalism” committed by Hamas supporters who hold US visas. A complaint was filed by the America First Legal Foundation, a conservative legal advocacy group, accusing the Biden administration of “turning a blind eye to the massive uptick in violence against Jews across America in the wake of Hamas’s Oct. 7 terror attack on Israel” “It appears that concerns regarding the potential electoral consequences of protecting Jewish Americans and enforcing American...

Ever since Hamas’s Oct. 7 terrorist attack and Israel’s counteroffensive, prominent climate activist groups such as Extinction Rebellion, Just Stop Oil, and Fridays for Future have led anti-Israel protests, attempting to align the Palestinian cause with the global climate cause. But this messaging is deeply flawed, and as a 24-year-old Jewish climate commentator, I fear it could seriously divide and impede the climate movement. My heart breaks for the thousands of innocent Gazans and Israelis who have been killed and the hundreds of Israeli hostages still in captivity. I believe both sides’ governments stoked tensions, failed their constituents, and need...

This video of an Adolf Hitler speech has been exploding across Arabic social media channels.

Six weeks after the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, American Democrats can no longer deny that their party has an antisemitism problem which, if left unchecked, may very well split the party ahead of next year’s elections and likely for the foreseeable future.To be sure, the Democratic Party has had to reckon with allegations of antisemitism multiple times in recent years, but this time it is wholly different, with direct implications for the party’s political viability — or even its survival in its current form.While Israel has long been a touchy subject for progressives, the overt antisemitism we...
