To the Antisemites Who Sit Next to Me at School
Bari Weiss ^ | Bari Weiss

To the Antisemites Who Sit Next to Me at School My NYU classmates talk about the 'Zionist grip on the media' and tweet 'death to Israel.'

To my law school classmate who tweeted, “my love language is marg bar [death to] Israel”: thank you.

To the Students for Justice in Palestine, who explained: “Zionism is, by design, an ideology that promotes violence against, and hatred and delegitimization of Palestinians. Embedded in the Zionist supremacy narrative is the orientalist, Islamophobic idea that Azkenazi [sic] Jewish whiteness is fundamentally superior to Palestinian lives, culture, and identity”: thank you.

To the dozen NYU student groups that signed on to their statement defending terrorist attacks on Israeli civilians because “People living under occupation have a right to resist their violent occupation,” and bemoaned the “Zionist grip on the media”: thank you.

To the the Black Allied Law Students Association, Middle Eastern Law Students Association, National Lawyers Guild, Law Students for Economic Justice, Muslim Law Students Association, The Coalition on Law & Representation, and Disability Allied Law Students Association that affirmed: “Palestinians are not obligated to engage in racialized ‘nonviolence’ theory”: thank you.

To the first-year law student who said, “Quiet, you baby,” when a Jewish student pleaded for a bit of sympathy: thank you.

To the 3L who mocked her Jewish classmates when they begged for reassurance that their supposed friends would condemn firing an AR-15 at unarmed men, women, and children, quipping “you don’t condemn an earthquake or a lethal outbreak of flu”: thank you.

To my classmates who lecture their Jewish classmates that “Zionism is a racist, imperialist, white supremacist ideology, not a religious movement,” and those others who insist that Israelis’ sense of victimhood is “delusional” because Israel “colonized Palestinian land”: I thank you.

All of you have done more than I ever could to convince my fellow Jews that the left doesn’t just have a Corbyn problem or a Tlaib problem or a Farrakhan problem. It has a big, fat Jew-hatred problem right in its ideological core. This time it happened to rear its head at one of the best law schools in the country. One where the name Steinhardt adorns the buildings and about a quarter of the students are Jews. Yes, even here. Especially here.

Thank you for starting one of those “courageous conversations” we’re always supposed to have. This one not about gender or systemic racism or climate change, but about the burning debate over whether it is fantastic or merely acceptable that innocent Jews are being murdered in Israel.

Free Palestine! With the purchase of any Palestine of equal or greater value. Neither the klan or neo nazis ever had a monopoly on Jew hatred. Until recently the left was better at pretending not to be anti Semitic.

The Left doesn’t pretend anymore. Satan may be the father of lies, but it’s more “fun” to him to be himself, and for his minions to imitate him openly.

Palestine isn’t a race, it’s a place. Arabs hate Jews. Always have, always will.

I don't understand how a tiny speck of land deranges liberals so much.

Jealously is one factor. The indigenous Arabs of the Middle East live in mud hovels, fornicating with goats and little children. They cut off pieces of women's private parts. The only industry they have is producing mud and sand.

Israel took a piece of the same land and transformed it into an ultra modern technological society, in addition to turning barren desert to a blossoming Eden.

Israel turned over acres and acres of advanced hydroponics greenhouses to the Arabs as a gesture of goodwill. What did the Arabs do? They smashed all of the advanced agricultural systems until they were beyond repair.

Satan is the father of lies and allah is the master of deception. Coincidence?

Because they are demon driven. Isrzel,is no bigger than new jersey, and Muslims own many many 1000’s of miles of land all around Israel, yet they are so driven by the evil one thst they can’t even a.low Israel to have that small spit of landit woild be loke the whole united states being violently opposed to nj just because the people,of nj live there.

You would think that “educated” people would look at history and realize that there are patterns of bias that are repeatedly and maliciously instilled in ignorant people, and that they would want to avoid being manipulated in that way. It shakes ones’ belief in what really constitutes an “education”.

“Which party does Bari vote for?”

Unless she has switched positions in recent years, my guess is she has supported Dems like 80% of Jewish voters do. So forgive me if I don’t extend her my sympathies.

She’s sort of like a Bill Maher Liberal, they still hold to some crazy liberal ideas that probably will never change, but many of the ideas being put forward by the woke left is beyond insane but are dangerous and she recognizes that.

Besides, she’s a Jew before she’s a liberal.

I believe there was once a famous and intelligent Jewish guy that said, doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results is the definition of insanity...

Anti-Semitism and racism are at the very core of the liberal progressive belief system; they literally cannot function without it. Hate is their foundation and their fuel.

On another thread I, unfortunately, had to post that I had agreed with Maher 8 times in the last 18 months.
It’s very confusing...

This is where we are headed.

God will intervene, but Jews are headed toward great persecution wherever they are in the world.

Not so ironically, holding leftist beliefs isn’t going to save the Jewish people from the European and American hard left they have long sought to appease and be friends with.

Scripture teaches in Ezekiel 38-39 Israel itself will soon enough be attacked from all sides, by a vast coalition led by an apparent desperate Russia, likely seeking energy, or whatever it needs for a greater strategic objective.

Scripture clearly teaches true Believers in Christ will also suffer global hatred and persecution.

Today, look to see continued Jewish “exodus” from wherever they may be, as we are seeing from Ukraine. Most have long left a long history of persecution in Russia.

Today, Israel already has over half the world’s Jews, but the US has by far the second largest population of Jews.

I expect this to change soon.

As America continues to consciously reject God and morality, and His word, and continues to illegally import vast anti-Jewish people groups, America CAN ONLY become more anti-God, anti-Jewish, anti-Cbristian, and more racist, as it self destructs.

thanks, great map to showcase what the left and muslims are so upset about- one can hardly even see Israel compared to the surroundings, and yet the muslims are incensed that Israel owns even that small amount

To the Students for Justice in Palestine: Ashkenazi Jews don’t think they are superior...they are. Out of any demographic, they have the highest overall IQs on the planet.
