Major Jewish Group Calls On MLB, NBA, NFL To Abandon Support For Black Lives Matter
[Federalist] The Coalition for Jewish Values is out with a new ad Thursday calling on professional sports leagues to abandon support for Black Lives Matter (BLM).

The ad begins by featuring BLM Co-Founder Patrisse Cullors calling on activists to "step up boldly and courageously to end the imperialist project that’s called Israel."

"When BLM was founded, they didn’t hide their antisemitism," the narrator says. "Despite this, professional sports teams ignored their bigotry and elevated BLM, providing millions of dollars in publicity, including teams in cities with vibrant Jewish communities."

The ad shows sports logos for several sports teams, such as the Chicago Bulls, the Dallas Mavericks, the New York Yankees, the Miami Heat, and the New England Patriots.

"Now their grassroots organization in Chicago chapter praised the massacre of Jews in Israel," the narrator continued.

The ad featured an image published by BLM Chicago celebrating the Oct. 7 Hamas massacre with a poster of a paratrooper captioned, "I stand with Palestine." During the surprise attack on Israel, Hamas paratroopers dropped into a music festival and killed about 260 people.

#1 Carl Cartledge once told me "wearing a Glider Patch did not make you a paratrooper." Carl said "many WWII paratroopers were dismayed that glider soldiers were given a distinctive patch."

I had incorrectly referred to a photo above his desk of a glider patch as an airborne patch. Carl made an 'on the spot' correction to my reference. He kept a Mauser Model 1914 in his top desk drawer at his store in Griffin, GA.

#2 When you Americans make fun of Israeli tolerance toward "Palestinians", I always think "Matthew 7:3-5".

#3 Have the Major League Sports groups actually learned from their mistakes of: Take A Knee, BLM, Dis-USA 1/2 acts, Trans, and other activists stunts?

Time, Viewer & Attendance #'s will tell.

#4 Sorry, refusal to promote antisemitism is not a component of ESG scoring...

#8 Shitting on white people? A-OK!

Doing the exact same to Jewish people? Not OK at all.
