[Bee] NEW YORK, NY — In a dramatic entrance that left onlookers both baffled and concerned for their immediate safety, Congresswoman Ilhan Omar descended from the skies above the Columbia University campus via paraglider, ready to lead the charge in the latest round of protests.
"Sometimes, you've got to glide right into the heart of the action and take the first shot," said Omar, removing her parachute straps as she surveyed the gathering crowd. "I'm here as extra ammunition for these students in our fight against oppression."
Though many condemned Omar's entrance as showing support for Hamas committing mass murder and rape, the Congresswoman remained undeterred. "Change doesn't happen from the sidelines, my friends," shouted Omar to the crowd of protesters. "You've got to get out there and tell President Biden: do NOT bring our hostages home! As my good friend Khymani James standing here beside me said, 'Zionists do not deserve to live'. Intifada Revolution! Ceasefire now! From the river to the sea!"
At publishing time, Ilhan Omar was spotted teaching the students how to make Molotov cocktails outside the university's Institute for Israel and Jewish Studies.

[NYPOST] It takes him more than a thousand words to get to it, at least in the updated version now online, but The Washington Post’s Philip Bump basically calls our own Isabel Vincent an antisemite for reporting on how the Soros family foundation and other lefty charities have been funding the campus protests.
The connection, he argues, "is so tenuous as to be obviously contrived," as he lays out how the payments Vincent actually traced (via various intermediate nonprofits) only account for a tiny percentage of known cash that various protest leaders actually pocketed, and anyway those intermediaries (like Jewish Voice for Peace, the Tides Foundation, Education for Just Peace in the Middle East and the Westchester People’s Action Coalition Foundation) get lots of money from lots of places.
But readers, Bump insists, are "meant to think" that "Soros is a nefarious figure bent on using his wealth to reshape the world": It’s all "vague insinuations leveraging well-worn rhetoric and a preexisting visceral response to the Jewish billionaire," and: "There’s a term for allegations like that."
It’s easy, actually: if the speaker uses Mr. Soros as an example of how horrible all Jews are, that’s antisemitism. If, on the other hand, the speaker loathes Mr. Soros because he is a truly loathsome example of humanity, his Jewishness incidental and not representative of Jews as a whole, then he is not a Jew-hater, but a nuanced and insightful thinker on the subject
The basic piece went online within six hours of Vincent’s report, a rapid turnaround enabled by the fact that Bump isn’t a journalist, but a stenographer for Soros.
Yes, the Soros camp always insists that any criticism of his giving is nothing but antisemitism — whether it’s the latest news, or his quiet, yearslong, all-too-successful effort to transform the justice system by helping forces of Evil win election as district attorneys.

A person trying to expose the funding for antisemitic protests is smeared as antisemitic because the highest form of antisemitism is to criticize Soros who enjoys an anointing akin to David.

There are Jews who say "He's a Jew. That cancels everything else."
I have to support them anyway. They can't help themselves.

All groups have some of that kind of idiot, M. Wisdom is orthogonal to both knowledge and raw intelligence, in both directions.
[LegalInsurrection] My interview on The Daily Signal Podcast: “They have participated in the creation of a monstrous movement on campuses that is anti-American, anti-Western, anti-capitalist, and that uses targeting of Jews and Israel as an organizing mechanism…. It is a tear down the statues ideology. It is remove names from buildings ideology. It is a deconstruction of our society. It is very reminiscent to me of a Khmer Rouge in Cambodia sort of ideology, where you go back to Year Zero.”
I appeared Daily Signal Podcast on April 24, 2024, hosted by Virginia Allen. I’ve been on the DS podcast many times, and I appreciate how Virginia makes the guest the spotlight, not the host.
Here’s the segment as written up by the DS, What’s Behind Antisemitic Protests on College Campuses:
Pro-Palestine protests on the campuses of some of America’s most elite colleges have resulted in hundreds of arrests and led Columbia University in New York to move classes online for the remainder of the semester. Read/listen to the post at the link.
[PJ] If leftists want to prove they don't support pedophiles—much less try to add them to the protected LGBTDOJ alphabet label—they could start by punishing them when they attack kids. Yet the far-left, rather than punish those who brutalize kids, frequently treats kiddie-diddlers like victims.

"The isssue is never the issue, its always the revolution." The left isn't "eager" to do anything...OTHER THAN destroy every single system and standard upon which this nation was built.

The Dems have an excellent track record of wearing people down until nobody dares to disagree with them. It is their goal to destroy and usurp the traditional family unit. This is part of the process. They will temporarily lie to us about their intentions for convenience.

It's no surprise they want to protect themselves.

Professional courtesy. They screw over a larger population on a daily basis.
[Breitbart] Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH) said on this week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday” that the United States needs to focus on the threat of China not aid to Ukraine.
Keep in mind also that the trumpeting of 1 - 2% increases in defense spending hides the fact that these nations do not plan to follow through on a single damned one of them; believing instead with all their hearts that the problem will somehow go away before it's really needed.
[Ynet] The Free World is reaching new heights of absurdity. A terrorist organization whose ideology is Nazi for all intents and purposes, an organization whose spokesmen talk about the extermination of Jews, all Jews, and even the extermination of Christians, an organization whose leaders talk about taking over the world, the whole world, to establish an evil empire.
Some 1,200 people were murdered, including Jews, Arabs and others. Women were raped. Babies were burned. And how do the two international courts, ICJ and ICC, respond? By threatening Israel, whether by declaring that Israel is committing genocide or by issuing international arrest warrants against heads of state who dared to speak out against those who rose to destroy it.
We already know that in all the international bodies established immediately after World War II, there is an automatic and malicious majority against Israel. Genocide in Sudan? Internment camps for millions of Muslims in China? A brutal suppression of opposition in Iran? Massacre and displacement in Myanmar? Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine? The massacre of nearly half a million people in Syria? Since all these events began, which continue unabated, Israel has been condemned more than all world countries combined.
When all these condemnations are received by majorities in bodies such as the UN General Assembly and the UN Human Rights Council, we are not moved. A malicious majority produces malicious decisions. When professors and students in Free World countries in general, and the United States in particular, demonstrate in favor of Hamas, Hezbollah and the elimination of Israel — we say that they are crazy. We've gotten used to it, and it's not a good thing.
Two international bodies were supposed to be a little different. The ICJ and the ICC. We already know about the proceedings taking place in the first, the International Court of Justice. There is no decision there that Israel committed genocide, but it is completely unclear that there will not be.
In the second, according to more and more reports, the International Criminal Court is completing preparations for issuing international arrest warrants against several heads of state and the army. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will become Russian President Vladimir Putin. It's kind of like an international tribunal issuing an arrest warrant for Winston Churchill for the bombings of Dresden and Hamburg, not against Adolf Hitler, humanity's most despicable human monster. Globalists/Islamist alliance in action.
