Soon: Arrest Warrant Against Netanyahu and his Terrorist Regime

Zionist sycophant and Trump republican House Speaker, Mike Johnson, R-La., is pleading with his political enemy, US president Joe Biden, to intervene with the International Criminal Court (ICC) - whose jurisdiction the US does not recognize - to prevent the Court from issuing an arrest warrant against the leaders of the terrorist Zionist regime in Palestine. 

Imagine the gall these people have: Unlike most other nations, they think they are above international law and refuse to join the ICC. Then, when the ICC acts, they complain as outsiders without any leverage to have an influence.  Why do the US and Israel refuse to join the ICC is simple: They know they are thuggish in their policies; they know they will be caught committing atrocities in their expansionist and colonial enterprises around the world; and joining the ICC will certainly hold them and their soldier-terrorists to account.

Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., has called on President Biden to utilize the U.S.'s influence on the world stage to block the International Criminal Court's (ICC) reported plan to issue arrest warrants for top Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Having no moral authority left with which to influence such developments against its bastard child Israel, the US will probably use its financial power to try and influence the ICC.

The warrants, according to the dumb Speaker, would be "baseless and illegitimate".

"If unchallenged by the Biden administration, the ICC could create and assume unprecedented power to issue arrest warrants against American political leaders, American diplomats, and American military personnel, thereby endangering our country's sovereign authority," the speaker said.

"Instead of wrongly targeting Israel, the ICC should pursue charges against Iran and its terror proxies, including Hamas, for engaging in horrific war crimes. The Biden administration must immediately and unequivocally demand that the ICC stand down and the U.S. should use every available tool to prevent such an abomination." But the US has no leverage.

State Department deputy spokesman Vidant Patel on Monday told reporters on Monday, "On this investigation, our position is clear. We continue to believe that the ICC does not have jurisdiction over the Palestinian situation." The arrogance of an outsider-refusnik to a club who wants to dictate the rules of the club.

Israeli officials are rightfully terrified at the thought of the ICC preparing arrest warrants them as they will join the ranks off such prestigious political criminals like Ugandan rebel leader Joseph Kony, former Dictator of Sudan Omar al-Bashir, President Uhuru Kenyatta of Kenya, Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi, President Laurent Gbagbo of Ivory Coast and former Vice President Jean-Pierre Bemba of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Russian dictator Vladimir Putin. According to Wikipedia, Putin became the first head of state of a U.N. Security Council Permanent Member to be the subject of an ICC arrest warrant.

Israel has been accused of blocking humanitarian aid to Gaza while waging a ground invasion and airstrike campaign in order to get Israeli hostages being held by Hamas back to their homes. But there's been mounting criticism of Israel on the world stage over the savagery of its response.

Unlike the U.S. and Israel, Palestine was admitted as an ICC member state in April 2015. Palestine has little to fear as it is the victim of the crimes of Israel which has much to fear from the arrest warrants against its leaders.

"Under my leadership, Israel will never accept any attempt by the ICC to undermine its inherent right of self-defense," Netanyahu said in a statement on X Friday. To him, the threat to seize the soldiers and officials of the barbaric Jewish theocracy is outrageous. Arrogance, it's been said, is the sister of insecurity. When you know you're wrong, you feel insecure, so you turn to arrogance to compensate for your lack of confidence.

Israel and its leaders are the very definition of arrogance: As opposed to confidence, which is being assured of your own self-worth and having belief in your abilities, arrogance is an over exaggerated view of your own abilities to the point that you think you’re better than everyone else and feel the need to “show off” or make sure that people know (you think) you’re better than them. Oh my!

 

Former IDF Terrorist Criticizes Israel's Actions in Gaza

Majority of Americans Support Ending the Zionist Occupation of Palestine

A significant majority of Americans support Palestine in its defensive war against Zionist barbarity, according to a new poll.

The Stimson-Andromeda survey showed that 66 percent of registered voters said they support an end to Israel's war and occupation of Palestine, while 32 percent said they support Israel more. That is a significant change in the poll findings of six months ago, when 52 percent indicated they support Israel more.

In this month’s poll, younger age groups were much more likely to be supportive of Palestine than older respondents, indicating a radical change in America's long-standing monolithic blind support for Israel. In fact, polled people in the past feared retaliation if they expressed their support for Palestine. But like a political me-too sea change, the political word has been liberated: younger Americans do not assume the guilt of their parents and grandparents, have no emotional bruises from what the Germans did to their own Jewish citizens during WWII, and they are perhaps the first generation to be emancipated from the Zionist blackmail that keeps the US like a pathetic underling to the Zionist power-that-be. They look at the conflict in Palestine and see only one rogue thuggish side - Israel - armed to the teeth with their own taxes, and can objectively tell right from wrong. They have no guilt baggage that has blinded the previous generations to the tragedy and the heartache that Israel's violent Palestine-rape creation has caused, and continues to cause. 

Support for Israel was the lowest among the youngest age groups. Pollsters found 32 percent of those 25 to 34 and 29 percent of those 18 to 24 said they support Israel more, while the rest of those age groups said they support Palestine more.

The poll’s results come as numerous pro-Palestinian protests have popped up on college campuses throughout the country. Students have set up encampments to protest for days at schools including Columbia and New York University. University administrators, who should know better since they are the educated custodians of academic freedom and objective reasoning, are failing by adotping a militaristic repressive approach to the student movement. Unfortunately, they too have no history to be able to gauge the truth without bias. Just like their predecessors who failed time and time again to seize the moment to implement radical change in their mercantile commercial approach to education and research.


 

US Students Are an Ethics Shield Facing Immoral American Policies

The students were right on Vietnam. Their protests led the end of the barbaric Vietnam War against the Communist scarecrow. The US is best friends with its demonized enemies, be they Germany, Japan or Vietnam.

But America has no memory because it has no history.

The students were right on the Civil Rights Movement. Their protests helped cement the end of segregation, racism, and modern forms of slavery that are endemic in the southern "condeferate, secessionist and slave-owner" southern states. 

But America has no memory because it has no history.

The students were right on South Africa. Their protests led to the end of the barbaric apartheid policy of the minority whites-only racist regime, the liberation of Nelson Mandela after 27 years in prison as a terrorist, and the inauguration of a diverse multi-racial South Africa free from racism and white supremacy.

But America has no memory because it has no history.

The students ARE right today to protest for Palestine. They represent a threat only to the anti-Palestine-statehood right-wing racist allies of the Jewish-supremacist Zionist genociders, ethnic cleansers and land thieves. Their protests WILL lead to the end of the barbaric and illegal occupation of Palestine, the liberation of all freedom fighters and defenders of their historic lands, and the restitution of their rights to millions of refugees who were forced out of their homes, villages and towns by German Jewish invaders, rapists, and murderers.

With their protests, American students of Jewish, Arab, African, European and Asian descent are showing the world that America remains an upholder of justice and human rights, and will ultimately discard both Republican and Democrat criminal sycophants of a barbaric Zionist regime built less than a century ago on primitive mythology from the Bronze Age. 

America, wake up! You will one day have a memory after a brief history of barbarism. The saying might be true that "America is the first empire that went from barbarism to decadence without going through a civilization". American students are building that civilization.

College students are telling you exactly how they feel about the Israel-Hamas war. Listen.

I took the train up to Columbia University last week to see the "depraved" New York college students everyone keeps saying are taking over their college campuses.

According to social media and news coverage [and Zionist-paid charlatans like the puppet mouthpiece of the racist regime in Israel, the German neo-Nazi Jonathan Greenblatt], these students are singlehandedly driving our country into chaos by protesting – something that college students have done for decades.

Behind the gates and in pockets along the campus perimeter, pro-Palestinian students wore keffiyehs, the traditional Palestinian scarves, and waved the Palestinian flag. There was a group of interfaith believers huddled and chanting just off the sidewalk. Nearby were members of Neturei Karta, an Orthodox Jewish group that opposes the state of Israel.

Pro-Israel counterprotesters were marching down the streets, making their presence known to the students behind the gates. At one point, I watched as a group of students waved the Palestinian flag over one of Columbia’s gates and argued with pro-Israel demonstrators.

“You’re a Nazi!” one pro-Israel protester yelled. “You’re all Nazis.”

Pro-Palestinian demonstrators have been accused of antisemitism. On April 21, the Sunday before Passover, a rabbi who works for Columbia told hundreds of Jewish students via WhatsApp that the university had failed to guarantee their safety and urged them to return home. The following day, Columbia moved classes online. [But there are dozens of Jewish students among the protesters. So how can these Jewish students be a threat to their own safety?]

But I didn't see violence, out-of-control students or chaos on my visit. What I saw were people on either side of the argument saying exactly how they felt about the Israel-Hamas war and an Ivy League school that doesn't know how to deal with it aside from militarization.

What's happening at Columbia and campuses across the country?

For months, there have been protests calling into question U.S. support of Israel. Across the country, demonstrators have blocked roadways, disrupted speeches and boycotted products. Some of the most vocal dissidents have been on college campuses.

Over the past two weeks, students at more than 30 campuses have held demonstrations. This has led to hundreds of arrests across the country.

Earlier in April, Columbia University called the New York Police Department on demonstrators who had set up an encampment. More than 100 people were arrested. Since then, protests at Yale University, the University of Minnesota and New York University have led to mass arrests. Police have shown up at multiple schools in riot gear. At the University of Texas at Austin, the administration called in state troopers.

This has not stopped students across the country from creating encampments, both in solidarity with the students at Columbia and in protest of the ongoing conflict that has killed more than 34,000 Palestinians after more than 200 days of war. Instead of focusing on the destruction we're witnessing in real time, the administrations of these universities are choosing to reprimand students for practicing their right to protest.

On Monday, Columbia announced it began suspending students hours after demonstrators defied a deadline for clearing the “Gaza Solidarity Encampment” at the center of campus.

At the University of Texas at Austin on April 29, 2024, police arrest a protester at an encampment where students called attention to the war in Gaza.
At the University of Texas at Austin on April 29, 2024, police arrest a protester at an encampment where students called attention to the war in Gaza.

Law enforcement was everywhere at the Columbia protests I visited, with NYPD officers and private security guarding the entryways. I understand that they are expected to be there – I’m just not sure it can lead to any genuine resolution.

Nothing will escalate a situation more than introducing police in riot gear with zip ties at the ready. Nonviolent protest does not need to be met with weaponry. I don’t know why university administrations continue to act as if this will accomplish something, considering there have been so many times before this where it hasn’t.

Creating an unsafe environment for the protesting students

The Columbia administration's response harkens back to its actions in 1968 during the Vietnam War and the Civil Rights Movement, when the NYPD arrested and violently removed more than 700 protesters who had seized university buildings and temporarily took a dean hostage.

The university eventually ceded to the demands and severed ties with a Pentagon institute, but it did not change what these students endured to get their message across.

What university administrators across the country need to realize is that time isn’t on their side. History will remember the way school officials called the police on their students. [But the terror of Zionism breathing down their necks makes them blind to justice and liars to themselves].

It's wild to see a group of people be so committed to villainizing themselves in the eyes of their students and the general public.

I have repeatedly said that this will be one of the top issues of the presidential election. What we’re seeing on college campuses is proof of that. It is consistent with the polling we’ve seen that shows Generation Z is sympathetic to the Palestinian struggle, and it is consistent with the surge of uncommitted votes we've seen in the Democratic primaries.

It shouldn't be surprising that this generation is mobilizing against a war that, in part, is funded by U.S. tax dollars.

An entire generation is telling you exactly how they feel about financially supporting war, and I don't think they'll be backing down any time soon.

2024 Democratic Party National Convention in Chicago: A Redux of 1968?

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young - A song about the 1968 Democratic Party Convention in Chicago

Between August 23 and August 29, 1968, at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, tens of thousands of Vietnam War protesters battle police in the streets, while the Democratic Party falls apart over an internal disagreement concerning its stance on Vietnam.
 
History is coming back to Chicago, the venue for the 2024 Democratic National Convention this coming summer. The Democratic Party again stands to lose the elections because half the party - Butcher Biden's half - lacks a backbone to stand up for principle, justice, and its own claims. Its internal division over Israel's savagery in Palestine will sound its death knell and its loss in the elections. 
 
I call on all Democrats to vote for Trump: A Party that sends lethal weapons to the rogue Israeli dictatorship to continue killing children by the thousands, while pretending to build a pier to deliver food aid to te same starving children targets deserves no less than a maniac for President. With a second Trump term, the country will finally hit rock bottom and hopefully all the double-faced bigotry, perfidy, and lies about human rights and self-determination of ALL peoples.

The division within the Democratic Party in 1968 over the Vietnam War led to the victory of the Republican crook Richard Nixon who defeated both the Democratic nominee, incumbent vice president Hubert Humphrey, and the American Independent Party nominee, former Alabama governor George Wallace. The writing on the wall is legible: Biden will lose the 2024 election to the new Republican crook Donald Trump because Biden is a slithering worm at the feet of war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu.
 
Here are the lyrics of the song "Chicago" by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young:

Though your brother's bound and gagged
And they've chained him to a chairWon't you please come to ChicagoJust to sing
 
In a land that's known as freedomHow can such a thing be fairWon't you please come to ChicagoFor the help that we can bring
 
We can change the world Re-arrange the worldIt's dying ... to get better
 
Politicians, sit yourselves downThere's nothing for you hereWon't you please come to ChicagoFor a ride?
Don't ask Jack to help you'Cause he'll turn the other earWon't you please come to ChicagoOr else join the other side?
 
We can change the worldRe-arrange the worldIt's dying, if you believe in justiceIt's dying, if you believe in freedomIt's dying, let a man live his own lifeIt's dying, rules and regulations, who needs themThrow them out the door
 
Somehow people must be freeI hope the day comes soonWon't you please come to ChicagoShow your face?
 
From the bottom of the oceanTo the mountains on the moonWon't you please come to Chicago?No one else can take your place
 
We can change the worldRe-arrage the worldIt's dying, if you believe in justiceIt's dying, and if you believe in freedomIt's dying, let a man live his own lifeIt's dying, rules and regulations, who needs themThrow them out the door

 

Human Rights Groups Demand Universities End Crackdowns on Student Protests

185 Human Rights Groups Demand Universities End Crackdowns on Gaza Protests

Christopher Mathias
Mon, April 29, 2024

A coalition of 185 social justice and religious groups published an open letter Monday expressing support for the campus protest encampments sweeping the country in opposition to Israel’s siege of Gaza, and calling on university administrators to end the brutal crackdowns of the student-led demonstrations.

“We commend the students who are exercising their right to protest peacefully despite an overwhelming atmosphere of pressure, intimidation and retaliation, to raise awareness about Israel’s assault on Gaza — with U.S. weapons and funding,” the letter states. “These students have come forth with clear demands that their universities divest from corporations profiting from Israeli occupation, and demanding safe environments for Palestinians across their campuses. ”

Groups that signed the letter include Gen-Z for Change, Working Families Party, IfNotNow Movement, Young Democrats of America Black Caucus, Movement for Black Lives, Sunrise Movement, MPower Change, Jewish Voice for Peace, Palestine Legal, and the Unitarian Universalist Association.

Some 900 students have been arrested during anti-war encampments and demonstrations at American universities in the last 10 days, per a tally from Al Jazeera — a tumultuous period that mirrors volatile demonstrations against the Vietnam War in 1968, when police arrested at least 700 students.

The open letter Monday represents one of the largest shows of support among progressive groups for the burgeoning student protests, and makes clear the divide between establishment Democratic figures and social justice groups when it comes to U.S. support for Israel. President Joe Biden has refused so far to condition the sale of weapons to Israel.

“Our communities have been horrified to see the militarized and violent response to students protesting an ongoing genocide funded and supported by our government, and our coalition of organizations join millions of our members across the country in standing in solidarity with the students’ efforts in support of the people of Gaza,” Yasmine Taeb, one of the main organizers of the letter, told HuffPost. Taeb is a human rights lawyer and political director at MPower Change, a Muslim social justice group.

“Instead of attacking young people mobilizing for Palestinian human rights, President Biden needs to listen to the majority of Americans who have been calling on him to stop funding and supporting the atrocities committed against the people of Gaza,” Taeb said.

Elise Joshi, executive director at Gen-Z for Change, another signatory to the letter, said that “in a time where all universities in Gaza are destroyed, it is our moral obligation to stand with youth in Gaza and all of Palestine. Students are using theory and philosophy from lectures for their intended purpose: collectively dismantling systems of oppression. Free Palestine.”

Israel has killed over 33,000 Palestinians since Oct. 7, when the Gaza-based militant group Hamas launched an attack in which nearly 1,200 Israelis were killed. In January, the International Court of Justice ruled that Israel’s siege of Gaza — which has displaced 85% of the population and put the occupied territory on the cusp of famine — left Palestinians at risk of experiencing a genocide. Last week, health officials in Gaza said medics had discovered mass graves at hospitals raided by Israeli troops.

“We join [the students] in calling for an immediate and lasting ceasefire and an end to the U.S. government’s and institutions’ role in the ongoing genocide of Palestinians in Gaza,” Monday’s letter states.

“As we stand in solidarity with the students protesting in encampments across the country, we reaffirm our commitment to amplifying their voices, condemn the university administration officials’ violent response to their activism, and demand that universities remove the presence of police and other militarized forces from their campuses,” it continues.

In the early hours of April 17, students at Columbia University set up tents on the Ivy League institution’s neatly manicured lawn, promising not to leave until the school divested its endowment funds from companies and weapons manufacturers that have business with the Israeli government. The next day, university president Minouche Shafik summoned the New York Police Department to raid the encampment, with officers throwing away tents and arresting over 100 students. Some students were also suspended and evicted from their housing.

But Columbia students defiantly reestablished an encampment not long afterward, inspiring students at dozens of universities across the U.S. to establish their own. These encampments have also faced police crackdowns, including at Emerson College in Boston, where police arrested 108 protesters; at Emory University in Atlanta, where disturbing videos emerged of police using pepper spray and Tasers to arrest students, as well as a few professors; and at University of Texas in Austin, where state troopers in riot gear arrested nearly 60 students.

Meanwhile, Republican Party officials and right-wing media figures have accused the demonstrations of antisemitism, falsely equating criticism of Israel with bigotry towards Jews. Although there have been scattered reports of actual antisemitic incidents at or near the encampments, many were not perpetrated by students but by interlopers. Many of the student protesters across the country are Jewish.

Far-right agitators, including Christian nationalist activists, have also targeted the encampments, with MAGA pastor Sean Feucht leading hundreds of Christian and Jewish Zionists on a march around the Columbia campus on Thursday. The rally ended with pro-Israel demonstrators yelling through the gate at pro-Palestinian Columbia students. “Go back to Gaza!” they screamed.

On Monday, Shafik, Columbia’s president, gave student protesters a 2 p.m. deadline to leave the encampment or face mass suspensions and evictions.

US Confusion: Decries Israel's human rights violations but Rejects ICC's Jurisdiction

The Zionist terrorist hounds are howling at the moon because the nternational Criminal Court (ICC) is set to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his coterie of barbarian Israeli officials. Just like Putin of Russia and his oligarchs.
 
But House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), the bespectacled idiot lackey of Trump, called the arrest warrants illegitimate and said that “instead of wrongly targeting Israel,” the ICC should focus on Hamas and other Iran-aligned terror groups “for engaging in horrific war crimes.” Naturally, when you are a backward ignorant American Republican, you double down on the "ugly" American with the "dumb" American. Hamas is an organization, not a state. The ICC has jursidiction over states that are signatories to the its charter, it has no jurisdiction over organizations and associations. Now in their hubris of arrogant militaristic totalitarian regimes, neither Israel nor the United States is a member state to the ICC because they want to commit crimes across the globe and avoid prosecution. If Israel and its moronic American supporters want the ICC to prosecute Hamas, they will have to join the ICC first, then let Palestine be a full-fledged state so that it falls under the ICC's jurisidiction.

The imbecile Speaker added, “If unchallenged by the Biden administration, the ICC could create and assume unprecedented power to issue arrest warrants against American political leaders, American diplomats, and American military personnel, thereby endangering our country’s sovereign authority.” But how can the US challenge an international authority in which it refuses to be a member?

Now the ICC is by all accounts preparing to issue arrest warrants for Hamas leaders as well. the ICC is not a biased partisan court; it targets everyone and anyone who commits a crime.

Israeli officials stand to be accused of “preventing the delivery of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip” and for “pursuing an excessively harsh response” against the Palestinian population, according to the New York Times.

The Biden administration, which has proven itself to be a spineless subservient slave to the Zionists,  said it did not support the investigation.  While neither Israel nor the United States accepts the ICC’s jurisdiction, potential warrants could put Israeli officials at risk in other countries, the AP reported.

While rejecting the ICC's charges against Israel's savagery, the US contradicts itself by accusing the Israeli terrorist war machine of human rights violations. It seems the US is fumbling and has no idea how to deal with the situation. So why does the US reject the ICC's jurisdiction? The answer: Arrogance. The US believes it is superior to all international instances: It either dominates them (its veto in the Security Council is one example) or when it can't control them (like the ICC), it rejects them. That is what stubborn obtuse totalitarian systems do. American dumbness is not even subtle: It is proud of itself.

It seems that after decades of ignoring all of its Israel's crimes and violations of every UN resolution, both domestic and international pressure have ow forced the U.S. to pretend to be fair and unbiased. It finds that five units of the Israel Defense Forces (the official US-funded terrorist organization in occupied Palestine) are responsible "for individual incidents of gross violations of human rights," the State Department announced on Monday. Notice the "individual" qualifier: it means the US condemns certain individuals in these units, but not the unit itself, unlike for example its condemnation of the entire UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees) organziation because of still unproven charges against individuals employees of that organziation.

When pressed by a reporter, Patel admitted that the fifth unit is still eligible to receive U.S. arms at this stage.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken has raised the question of applying the provisions of the Leahy Law  with Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. The State Department says on its website that "the term ‘Leahy law’ refers to two statutory provisions prohibiting the U.S. Government from using funds for assistance to units of foreign security forces where there is credible information implicating that unit in the commission of gross violations of human rights." Under this definition, the US should itself be prosecuting or banning the entire state of Israel and its terrorist armed forces, all of which were founded on a genocide and ethnic cleanising of Palestine. But, alas, even in the 21st century might makes right, bullies prevail over innocent people, and criminals proudly walk over the corpses of their victins. You can be the worst criminal and bully on earth, your military strength prevails when it comes to distinguishing good from bad, decent from abomminable, acceptable from revolting.

Former Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy had championed legislation that became the Leahy law in the 1990s, saying the U.S. needed a tool to block American military aid and training to foreign security units guilty of extrajudicial killings, rapes, torture and other flagrant human rights abuses. The law requires an automatic cutoff of aid to a military unit if the State Department finds credible evidence that it has committed gross abuses.

Rights groups long have accused U.S. administrations, including Biden's, of shirking rigorous investigations of allegations of Israeli military killings and other abuses against Palestinians to avoid invoking such laws aimed at conditioning military aid to lawful behavior by foreign forces, according to The Associated Press.

Israel, meanwhile, pretends its security forces investigate abuses and its courts hold offenders accountable. Yup, I am going to believe this one more lie from a foreign colony that was founded on lies and myths from the Bronze Age of humanity. And the United States, which created the UN and all existing international entities in the post-1945 era to prevent war and promote peace, began immediately violating its own commitments by allowing Israel - under the pretext that it is a "victim" of German barbarity - to be the exception when it came to enforcing justice around the world.

As things stand, the International Criminal Court could soon issue arrest warrants against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other top officials over charges related to the war in Gaza. The court may accuse the senior government figures of pursuing an excessively harsh military campaign and preventing the delivery of humanitarian aid to Palestine

“We do not support it,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters at Monday’s media briefing, referring to the ICC’s investigation, which encompasses the actions of Hamas as well as Israel. “We don’t believe they have the jurisdiction.”

At its core, the case is about Israel's gratuitously brutal and savage ethnic cleansing campaign in Palestine, including its deliberate starvation of the indigenous Palestinian population and its killing of around 34,000 people.

The confusion and disarray in the American administration over the war on Palestine is easily explainable: The US is stuck in a posture of blind defense of Israel's otherwise indefensible existence over the ashes of historic Palestine and the corpses of millions of Palestinians trying to defend themselves and salvage their country. The disarray at the helm of the American government has led many State Department employees to quit in disgust at the muddiness of its policies. Then, one ought to hear the truth from the mouths of babes: College student protests against Israel’s actions and Butcher Biden's approval of such actions, not to mention the growing disapproval among Biden's own Democratic party voters because Genocide Joe continues to cover for Israel's savagery by refusing to apply any leverage to rein it in and delivering millions of tons of lethal weapons so it can continue killing Palestinian civilians.

Zionist organizations are crying loud over a fabricated rise of antisemitism, the ultimate and eternal scarecrow against any criticism of Israel. Indeed, many in Biden's own party have countered that the charge of antisemitism is used to delegitimize criticism of Netanyahu’s policies.

Those fault lines are once again evident in the debate over potential ICC action.

“I would question as to why anyone thinks the ICC does not have jurisdiction over the exact sort of crimes that they are supposed to have jurisdiction over — or why those governments who are not part of the ICC have any say as to who is or isn’t part of the jurisdiction,” a pro-Palestine expert said. A pro-Zionist expert, who noted that he himself has often been critical of Netanyahu, said that the ICC — as well as the International Court of Justice, which is hearing a separate case in which the government of South Africa has accused Israel of committing genocide — comes with “entrenched biases against Israel.” The standard libel: Any critic of Israel is antisemitic, including millions of Jews who are not Zionists and who are demonstrating against Israel's barbarity in Palestine.

Listen to the apologists of Israel's barbarity:  Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) called the idea of the ICC issuing arrest warrants against Netanyahu or other Israeli officials “disgraceful” and “an abomination.” Numskull Senator John Fetterman (D-Pa.), one of the rare Democratic voices backing Israel in the conflict, said on social media that it would be “a fatal blow to the judicial and moral standing of [the] ICC to pursue this path against Israel.” How can an idiot like Fetterman whose government rejects the ICC go around claiming it has a judicial and moral standing? If Fetterman deems the ICC as having standing, why doesn't the US join it? The US and its Zionist friends should not be lectruing the ICC about its moral or judicial standing when they don't recognize it as a legitimate institution?

Israel and the US are blackmailing the international community by threatening to walk out of prisoner-exchange negotiations and not agree to a ceasefire if the ICC in the Hague issues arrest warrants against Israeli war criminals.

Vile and Psychotic Republican Trump Lackeys and Footmen

Bill Barr once said Trump shouldn’t be near Oval Office. Now he says he will vote for him in 2024

This is how deranged the Republican Party has become, as it contemplates its own demise because of such contradictory and unprincipled postures. As it desperately seeks to overcome its tragic decomposition from a Grand Old Party to a clan of incompetent and fumbling tribes with antiquated ideas, the Republican Party is swallowing its own spit in large doses.

When I hear an otherwise respectable-looking US official say that he will vote for the same maniacal mentally-ill idiot Trump he often deemed unfit for office, I imagine some Afghan Taliban tribal chief in the wilderness of Afghanistan swearing allegiance like a minion to the big bearded and turbaned silverback in his guilded palace.

Former Attorney General Bill Barr, who previously said that Donald Trump shouldn’t be near the Oval Office, told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins on Friday that he would vote for the former president over President Joe Biden in the 2024 election.

“I think that Biden is unfit for office,” Barr said on “The Source” in a wide-ranging interview. “I think Trump would do less damage than Biden, and I think all this stuff about a threat to democracy – I think the real threat to democracy is the progressive movement and the Biden administration.”

Collins pressed Barr – who has been highly critical of his former boss – “Just to be clear, you’re voting for someone who you believe tried to subvert the peaceful transfer of power, that can’t even achieve his own policies, that lied about the election even after his attorney general told him that the election wasn’t stolen. … You’re going to vote for someone who is facing 88 criminal counts?”

Barr began, “Look, the 88 criminal counts, a lot of those are-”

“Even if 10 of them are accurate?” Collins interjected.


“The answer to the question is yes,” Barr countered. “I’m supporting the Republican ticket.”

Pressed further on whether he would vote for Trump specifically, Barr said, “Between Biden and Trump, I will vote for Trump because I believe he will do less damage over the four years.”

Barr went on to describe the difference between both parties in stark terms, insisting that “the threat to freedom and democracy has always been on the left.”

“I think the real threat to democracy is the progressive movement and the Biden administration,” he said.

Barr was more critical of Trump after he was indicted in the federal election subversion case last year. Speaking to Collins in August, the former attorney general described Trump’s alleged actions as detailed in the indictment as “nauseating” and “despicable,” adding that “someone who engaged in that kind of bullying about a process that is fundamental to our system and to our self-government shouldn’t be anywhere near the Oval Office.”

Asked by Collins on Friday whether the Biden administration’s actions have been worse than his former boss’ attempts to disrupt the transfer of power following the 2020 election, Barr downplayed Trump’s efforts, responding, “Did he succeed?”

“I’m very troubled by it and that’s why it’s not an easy decision, but I think when you have a Hobson’s choice, you have to pick the lesser of two evils,” he continued.

“The fact of the matter is, as I said all along, I agreed with Trump’s policies and despite the media, the left-wing media’s effort to portray it as a lawless administration, it wasn’t. His policies were sound and we had victories in courts and we defended them,” he added.

Barr’s appearance on “The Source” came a day after the Supreme Court heard arguments in the election subversion case on whether presidents should not have absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for their actions while in office. Trump maintains that the conduct he has been charged over was part of his official duties as president and that he is shielded from criminal liability.

Barr told Collins that he would’ve liked to see the case tried before the election and that he disagreed with Trump’s claims of sweeping immunity but noted “there has to be some precision as to what exact where exactly he crossed the line.”

“That’s why I feel it’s going to have to go back to the district court,” Barr said. “Was this the president seeing that the laws were faithfully executed or was this a candidate trying to bully and press a state into changing its vote when he knew the vote had been against him?”

Collins pressed Barr, “You were there, which one do you believe it is?”

“I’d have to see all the evidence and see the case litigated,” Barr said, avoiding a direct answer.

“I wasn’t happy with the way he behaved after the election, but whether it was a crime is a different issue,” Barr said.

Senator Bernie Sanders: Netanyahu is Guilty of Ethnic Cleansing in Palestine

 

 

Sanders says there’s not ‘any doubt’ Netanyahu is perpetrating ‘ethnic cleansing’

Lauren Sforza
Sun, April 28, 2024




Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) took aim at Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu again on Sunday, saying that Israel’s actions in Gaza are “ethnic cleansing.”

Sanders reiterated his familiar call on CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday to hold Netanyahu responsible for Israel’s actions in Gaza, pointing to the staggering death toll and the displacement of Palestinians in the region. He was asked to respond to the ongoing pro-Palestinian protests that have broken out on college campuses across the country and to Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-Minn.) remarks last week when visiting Columbia University.

“What I think the essential point that Ilhan made is that we do not want to see antisemitism in this country. And I think the word ‘genocide’ is something that is being determined by the International Court of Justice,” he said.

“But just as what I will say: I don’t think there’s any doubt that what Netanyahu is doing now — displacing 80 percent of the population in Gaza — is ethnic cleansing. That’s what it is. Pushing out huge numbers of people,” he added.

Omar visited Columbia’s campus last week, where the national spotlight has focused on the hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters gathered there. CNN played a clip of her comments Sunday on the ongoing protests on “State of the Union.”

“I think it is really unfortunate that people don’t care about the fact that all Jewish kids should be kept safe and that we should not have to tolerate antisemitism or bigotry for all Jewish students, whether they are pro-genocide or anti-genocide,” she said.

Sanders has repeatedly criticized Netanyahu for the ongoing war in Gaza and has opposed more U.S. funding to Israel. He also reiterated his calls for an end to U.S. funding to Israel’s actions in Gaza.

“And now we’re looking at the possibility of an attack on Rafah, where people have gone to as a so-called safety zone. So, what’s going on there, again, to my mind, is outrageous. And as you’ve indicated, I strongly oppose U.S. funding for Netanyahu’s war machine,” he added.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) let loose a scathing statement this week in response to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s accusation that protests at United States universities against Israel’s bombing campaign in Gaza are “antisemitic.”

“Mr. Netanyahu, antisemitism is a vile and disgusting form of bigotry that has done unspeakable harm to many millions of people", Sanders said in a video posted to X on Thursday. Do not insult the intelligence of the American people by attempting to distract us from the immoral and illegal war policies of your extremist and racist government. — Bernie Sanders (@BernieSanders) April 25, 2024

The senator implored the prime minister to “not insult the intelligence of the American people” in an attempt to “distract” them from Israel’s “immoral and illegal war policies.”

Israel’s offensive on Gaza, ...  has now left an estimated 34,000 Palestinians dead. UN Women, the United Nations organization for gender equality, reported in February that 70% of Palestinians killed at that time were women and children.

The senator said it “is not antisemitic” to note that Israel’s military operation has left more than half the population of Gaza homeless, “obliterated” the Palestinian territory’s water and electric infrastructure and “annihilated” its health care system.

Sanders, who is Jewish, concluded, “It is not antisemitic to hold you accountable for your actions.”

The video and an accompanying written statement came the day after Netanyahu called the recent upswell of antiwar protests at American college campuses “horrific,” characterizing them as “antisemitic mobs.” The student protesters are broadly calling for the U.S. to stop sending military aid to Israel and for educational institutions to divest financially from Israel.

“At universities across the nation, our movement is united in valuing every human life,” said a statement from one such group, Columbia University Apartheid Divest, per ABC News.

 

State Department Says Israel is Violating International Law

Some in State Department don’t believe Israel is using US weapons in accordance with international law, source says

The State Department is divided over whether Israel is using American-provided weapons in accordance with international law ahead of a fast-approaching deadline next week for Secretary of State Antony Blinken to make a determination to Congress.

There is not unanimity about whether to accept Israel’s assurances about this as “credible and reliable,” a department official said. Israel was required to make those assurances to the US under a national security memorandum issued by President Joe Biden in February.

The memorandum requires all countries receiving US weapons to make assurances that they are using them “in a manner consistent with all applicable international and domestic law and policy, including international humanitarian law and international human rights law.”

Under that memorandum, Blinken must tell Congress by May 8 whether he has certified the assurances to be credible and reliable.

Human rights groups have accused Israel of committing war crimes and abuses during the war in Gaza. Several hundred officials from Western countries, including some from the US, have previously raised concerns that their governments may be complicit in war crimes in their support of Israel’s fight against Hamas.

The State Department official Sunday did not give further details about which parts of the department are in favor of accepting Israel’s assurances, which are in favor of rejecting them, and which took no position.

Reuters reported Sunday that four bureaus – Democracy, Human Rights and Labor; Population, Refugees and Migration; Global Criminal Justice; and International Organization Affairs – raised “serious concern over non-compliance” with international humanitarian law during the war.

“We don’t comment on leaked documents, especially those purporting to contain classified information,” State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said in a statement.

“On complex issues, the Secretary often hears a diverse range of views from within the Department, and he takes all of those views into consideration,” he said. “In this instance, the Department received the assurances that were required by the National Security Memorandum, and we are now preparing a report to Congress.”

The concerns come after Biden signed into law an aid package that includes $26 billion for Israel. That funding includes $4.4 billion to replenish defense items and services provided to Israel and $3.5 billion for the procurement of advanced weapons systems and other items through the Foreign Military Financing Program.

Since Hamas’ attack on Israel in October, which killed over 1,200 Israelis, the US has made more than 100 foreign military sales to Israel. More than 34,000 people have been killed in Gaza since the war began, according to Gaza’s Ministry of Health.

Progressives are growing increasingly frustrated with Biden’s support for Israel, as protests over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza spread across the US, most notably on college campuses, where protesters have decried the stance of “Genocide Joe.” But the president on Sunday again reaffirmed his “ironclad” commitment to Israel in a call with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The White House could slow military provisions, curtail monetary assistance, or drastically ratchet up the public pressure on Netanyahu if the US concludes Israel is impeding aid to Gaza and not adhering to human rights laws.

Biden’s unconditional support for Israel’s war, though, has at times flagged. Following the Israeli strike that killed seven World Central Kitchen workers this month, the president for the first time threatened Netanyahu, telling him in a call that the US could be forced to make changes to free-flowing support if Israel did not make immediate moves to allow more humanitarian assistance into Gaza.

Last week, the State Department’s annual report on human rights raised sharp concerns about war crimes reported in the conflict between Hamas and Israel. The report referred to actions taken by Hamas on October 7 and also included “reports of systemic torture and cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment or punishment of Palestinian detainees in prison facilities after October 7” and the forced disappearance of thousands of Palestinians from Gaza.

While the report does not represent the US government’s own conclusions, Blinken said last week that the State Department was looking at the incidents.

“It’s important that we take the time to do our best to get the facts, to get the information, to do the analysis,” he said. “It’s very challenging to do this in real time.”

During a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing this month, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said that to his knowledge, “we don’t have any evidence of genocide being created” by Israel during its war in Gaza.

Blinken has previously called charges of genocide against Israel “meritless.”

Israel is Facing the Abyss

There again is hope that a ceasefire could be brokered with Hamas and the remaining 139 hostages returned. Talks have been deadlocked for months over Hamas’s demand that any deal lead to an end to the conflict, and Israel’s refusal to consider anything but “total victory”.

But late on Saturday night,  it was reported that a new Israeli proposal, brokered by Egypt, includes a willingness to discuss the “restoration of sustainable calm” in Gaza after an initial release of some 20-30 hostages. Since everything in diplomatic speak hinges on using one word or another, "sustainable calm" does not mean "premanent ceasefire". Netanyhau is refusing to end the conflict and wants to maintain the pressure, even if his intransigence leads to the death of the Israeli prisoners in Hamas's hands. 

No one really knows how many Israeli prisoners are still alive: but assuming that the Israeli terrorist organization doesn't lie (a very weak assumption, but....), they say they killed 12,000 Hamas terrorists as of the end of February, which is about half the total number of troops Hamas is estimated to have. If this is indeed the case, and assuming the Israeli captives are always closely attached to the Hamas combatants, one would expect that half the Israeli prisoners would have died in Israel's own shelling of Gaza, i.e. somewhere near 65 are the ones still alive. This explains the dwindling margin of negotiations that Hamas has: It doesn't have enough Israeli prisoners left to trade. In fact, some Israelis are saying that Netanyahu is willing to lose all his captives provided he goes into Rafah. In other words, it seems that Netanyahu and Hamas indirectly agree to continue the war, which is why the negotiations have been stalled for several weeks now. A hypothetical victory by Israel against Hamas, which is a far-fetched notion, will have to occur at the expense of the prisoners' lives.

It was previously reported that the number of prisoners Israel is asking Hamas to release in the initial phase of a ceasefire has also been reduced, which proves the point made above. Yet it is the proposal for an extended peace that is likely to make or break the new proposal, which the Hamas leadership is now considering and is expected to respond to in the next few days, although Hamas knows it is at the end of its rope and the opportunities offered by its war against Israel on October 7 will no longer be available in the foreseeable future.

“The proposal … includes a willingness to discuss the establishment of a sustainable ceasefire as part of the implementation of the second phase of the deal, which would take place after the release of hostages on humanitarian grounds,” reported the Axios news site on Sunday, quoting Israeli officials. But Hamas can read between the lines: It wants a permanent ceasefire and a return to the status quo ante, albeit it knows it will have to compromise on sharing power with the Palestinian Authority or with international troops on the ground and so on.

The reported shift in the Israeli position sparked anger from radical terrrorist circles close to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday night who, playing with words, said Israel’s war aims remained unchanged - something the new formulation allows for. Nevertheless the new deal - if accepted by Hamas - could spark a political crisis in Israel. The extreme Jewish terrorist parties that Netanyahu’s finely balanced coalition relies on have long said they will pull out if he stops the war before Hamas is wholly defeated.

These parties, however, represent only a handful of seats and the opposition Yesh Atid party has said it will step in and support the government if it can secure a deal which sees the return of the missing 139 hostages.

The new offer comes at the end of a week in which Israel has been talking up preparations for a military push into Rafah in the south of Gaza where Hamas’s last four battalions are thought to be dug in. The threat of an Israeli invasion of Rafah remains real and may pressure Hamas to engage constructively with the new deal, say analysts.

Israel is also feeling the heat from the US and other allies who have been ratcheting up the pressure ever since intervening decisively to protect Israel from the Iranian missile barrage two weeks ago.

The growing pressure on Netanyahu's Israel stems from several issues: 

1-Israel's vulnerability could be exploited by a new wave of Iranian missiles, and all it takes is one missile to hit a target for the damage to be done to Israel's invincibility.

2-On the nothern border, Hezbollah presents a far bigger threat than Hamas does. 

3-Israel's image internationally has been severly tarnished.

4-Israel’s dependence on western military aid represents an element of structural weakness, again striking at the very heart of the image of Israel as a country that can defend itself.

5-The damage done to US-Israel relations against the background of Israel's violation of international law is huge; Never before has this issue been so openly discussed and contemplated. 

6-Talk of sanctions on Israel for genocide and action by the International Criminal Court in the Hague have been growing steadily louder. 

7-American public opinion has turned against Israel and wants a definitive solution to the Palestinian statehood question. 

8-Finally, even the UK, the midwife of the barbaric Jewish colony in Palestine, is demanding accountability; It wants to inspect Israeli prisons in which it is detaining Hamas suspects from Gaza.

In sum, Israel is facing enormous pressures it never had to deal with before, and it must make many critical decisions. “...every decision the Israeli government makes will have far-reaching consequences for its strategic situation for many years to come,” tweeted Shay Har-Zvi, a Senior fellow at the Institute for Policy and Strategy and a former official in the Ministry of Strategic Affairs. He added that a deal may pave the way for the advancement of the wider US peace plan for the region, including the rebuilding of Gaza and formation of a “coalition against Iran”.

“On the other hand, another failure could lead to a wide multi-arena escalation,” he said. Although there is cause for hope, the chances of success remain slim based on recent performance. “Every time we get close to a deal… there is sabotage taking place… from both sides,” said a top Qatari official in an interview with the newspaper Haaretz on Saturday.

 

Netanyahu Orders his US Butlers to Violently Supress pro-Palestine Student Protests

Netanyahu is anxious and terrified. Not only is his political fate sealed by his failure at  preventing the Hamas operation against his Jewish colony on the Mediterranean, but he has single-handedly destroyed any sympathy that Israel had painstakingly nurtured around the world since the abomminable rape-creation of Israel over the ashes of historic Palestine. That sympathy was in large part extracted with loads of propaganda, lies, guilt-infliction, misinformation, and disinformation to artificially elevate the so-called Jewish people to the status of an exclusive club of infallible superior settler-victims while brutally dehumanizing the colonized native indigenous Palestinian population trying to resist and defend its stolen homeland.

Netanyahu has been plagued by protests against him inside his own colony long before the Hamas operation of last October. The wanted criminal fugitive is hiding behind his shield as a Prime Minister who has failed to contain domestic protests against him, yet he is so arrogant when it comes to the US that he his instructing his American administration poodle to use violence to quell the "horrific" student protests on university campuses, like he is doing in Gaza. In his own mind, there is nothing horrific about his own genocide and murder of 34,000 innocent civilian Palestinians.

This wanted criminal is running away from justice by prolonging his failed war on the Palestinians, in the hope that his moronic puppet Donald Dumb walks back into the White Outhouse next November. And he finds it all too natural to interfere in American domestic affairs because his Zionist thugs do actually OWN the United States as if it were a kennel for inbred American mongrels.

The English Midwife of the monster colony of Israel is expressing its regrets at being an accomplice to the Zionists' rape of Palestine.

Israeli Crime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Wednesday "more has to be done" to stop pro-Palestinian protests that have spread across U.S. campuses in recent weeks. 

"What's happening in America's college campuses is horrific," he said in a recorded statement, accusing "antisemitic mobs" of taking over leading universities.

"It's unconscionable. It has to be stopped. It has to be condemned and condemned unequivocally," he said. "The response of several university presidents was shameful. Now, fortunately, state, local, federal officials, many of them have responded differently but there has to be more. More has to be done."

Protests over Israel's actions in Gaza have intensified across U.S. campuses in recent weeks with the Gaza war now in its seventh month. Pro-Palestinian protesters have called for a ceasefire and for their universities to divest from companies with ties to Israel. Dozens of students have been doxxed, suspended by the university and arrested by police.

While a handful of American Zionist students are trying to undermine and tarnish the protests by pretending that the latter have created a hostile environment, many decent Jewish students, professors and administrators, as well as outside Jewish organizations not affiliated with the universities, are an integral part of the protest movement and continue to play a vocal role in the protests, like Jewish Voice for Peace.

A Jew is not necessarily a Zionist, just as a Palestinian is not necessarily a terrorist


Since October 7, 2023, Israel has killed more than 34,000 Palestinians, of whom 70% are women and children, in its ongoing assault on the blockaded Gaza Strip, with many more thousands remaining buried under the rubble. The objective of Israel is to finalize the ethnic cleansing of Palestine that was begun in 1948

The "Palestinian Question" has become for the Zionists just like the "Jewish Question" was for the Germans: Israel must complete its annihilation of the Palestinian people whose  millennial existence in Palestine is an obstacle to its becoming a "pure" Jewish-only country. After all, the Zionists were bred and steeped in the German culture: They share with the Germans many attributes: militarism, hatred of everyone else, racism, deep psychological and existential problems, megalomania, and a cold-blooded indifference to human suffering (as long as it is not their own suffering).

Desperate Zionists Unable to Adapt to the Narrative Revolution

With the blind support that Israel and Zionists have benefited from for the past several decades, primarily using their monopoly over the information, the younger generation of Americans has finally discovered the truth and the facts about Israel's barbaric colonial creation as an outpost for the Anglo-Saxon colonizers and global abusers. This generation has the Internet and social media to fact-check all the lies that European and American Zionists have been disseminating to justify their extermination of the indigenous Palestinian people and attempted obliteration of the Palestinian national identity.

 Jonathan Greenblatt

The German Zio-Nazi führer of ADL who is running out of lies and has no better argument in favor of Apartheid Israel than to use Nazi language and symbols to demonize Israel's victim: the entire Palestinian nation.

In their despair, Zionists are going to riddiculous extremes, like the Nazi-looking and Nazi-sounding Jonathan Greenblatt, the head of the so-called Anti-Defamation League (ADL) which is no more than an extension of the ultra-racist Israeli government of Benjamin Netanyahu. Greenblatt said that pro-Palestinian Freedom protesters, including the hundreds of Jewish students who have joined the protesters and saying "NOT IN OUR NAME", are Hamas proxies, antisemitic (so boring, it doesn't cling anymore) and a threat to Jewish students. Jewish students are a threat to Jewish students???? If so, then Mr. Greenblatt's problem is not with the Palestinians or the student protesters; his problem is that Israel is quickly sliding into a civil war between modern, secular, well-adjusted western European immigrant Jews on one hand, and the barbarian ultra-orthodox immigrant Jews from Eastern Europe, Russia, Iran and north Africa on the other hand who appear to be turning the British-American colony in Palestine into a Jewish theocracy in a copy-paste of the Islamic theocracy in Iran. From Europe, the Jews have brought to Palestine the methods and practices of the Nazi German Reich from which they fled (brutality, militarism, racism, etc.), while those from Africa, Iran and the Arab world have brought with them practices inspired from radical Islamic monotheistism.

In other words, Greenblatt is demonizing the protests and insinuating that the protesters are terrorists and therefore should be lethally dealt with. He even compared the millennial Arab headdress, the Keffieyh, to the German Swastika. He should look more closely at his Star of David which bears uncanny resemblance with the German Swastika.

But his own ADL is a proxy of the ultra-religious barbaric Israeli government, which means Greenblatt is as guilty as the IDF terrorist organization in the ethnic cleansing and genocide unfolding in Palestine. Is this proper discourse for a responsible person? No, but Greenblatt is fuming at having lost the free-run he and his Zionist barbarians have had over the largely ignorant American population. The younger generation has finally understood what went on in Palestine at the turn of the 20th century: A mega-ethnic cleansing of native indigenous Palestinians to be replaced by hordes of Eastern European Jews (Tussia, Belarus, Ukraine, Moldavia, etc.) willing to play the pawns in the British-American colonization scheme.

CAIR Calls On MSNBC to Ban ADL Boss Over ‘Iranian Proxies’ Remark

·3 min read

 The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is calling for MSNBC to ban Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt from its airwaves over recent comments he made about college students protesting against the war in Gaza.

During an appearance last Friday on Morning Joe, Greenblatt railed against the pro-Palestinian protests raging at Columbia University and other college campuses, describing them as antisemitic and threatening to Jewish students. He also took a shot at the two main organizations behind the demonstrations—the Students for Justice in Palestine and Jewish Voice for Peace.

“Iran has their military proxies like Hezbollah, and Iran has their campus proxies like these groups like SJP and JVP,” he declared.

In a statement on Thursday, CAIR Deputy Executive Director Edward Ahmed Mitchell claimed that Greenblatt was defaming the groups and urged the network to stop booking Greenblatt.

“Falsely claiming that Jewish and Palestinian student organizations are literal proxies of the Iranian government is a dangerous and defamatory slander that has no place on MSNBC or any other television network,” Mitchell stated.

“No civil rights leader would ever equate Jewish and Palestinian college students with Hezbollah, analogize the Nazi swastika to the Palestinian keffiyeh or question whether Hamas sympathizers were writing MSNBC scripts,” he added. “Mr. Greenblatt’s increasingly unhinged and outrageous comments must be condemned, and MSNBC should no longer give him a platform to peddle his hate speech.”

Responding to CAIR’s comments about Greenblatt, an ADL spokesperson told The Daily Beast: “Let’s be clear about SJP and JVP. In the days following the largest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, SJP explicitly endorsed the actions of Hamas and their armed attacks on Israeli civilians and JVP’s leadership stated multiple times that Israel was the “root cause” of the violence. This is not criticism of the war or Israel, this is glorifying terrorists and blaming the victim.”

CAIR claims that this is at least the third time that Greenblatt has made inflammatory remarks on MSNBC’s airwaves without being challenged by the network’s hosts.

Shortly after the October 7 attacks that sparked the war, Greenblatt appeared on Morning Joe and blasted the channel’s reporting on the conflict and wondered if the network’s scripts were written by Hamas sympathizers. (MSNBC featured three Muslim anchors during that weekend’s coverage of the attacks on Israel.)

In a separate interview later that day, Greenblatt explained to another network that he had been “literally watching the words scroll down on the camera” during his Morning Joe appearance and thought, “Who are the people in the back who think it is reasonable to describe this as quote, unquote, resistance, or to make these claims as if there is some moral equivalency?” He also insisted that he was “looking for journalism not activism.”

Earlier this month, dozens of Muslim and Arab civil rights groups—including CAIR—condemned the ADL after Greenblatt seemingly compared the Palestinian keffiyeh to a swastika, urging the organization to fire him.

“This pattern of behavior must end,” the joint statement read. “The ADL should terminate Mr. Greenblatt, apologize for its history of bad-faith attacks on various communities, and stop attempting to defame, silence and endanger those who express support for Palestinian human rights. Until then, it is no ally in the fight against hate.”

Greenblatt reacted to this condemnation by claiming his comments were “unsurprisingly being taken entirely out of context by CAIR, an organization that seems to specialize in fiction rather than fact.” Saying hate speech shouldn’t be “tolerated whether the person is wearing a Nazi armband or a keffiyeh,” Greenblatt added that he was “not comparing the garb” but rather “comparing the hate speech and how it shouldn’t be tolerated from anyone.”

MSNBC did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
