  2. Ross is wrong.

    The right can act with impunity when the left doesn't fight them on it. If the right is able to bring violence its because the gentile left is either too small, weak, and irrelevant to do anything about it or they've decided the victim is undeserving of their support.

    Left/Right same system for Jews.

    "When #Jewish leaders speak out these days, it’s often to blast the anti-#Israel actions of one #DemocraticSocialistsofAmerica #politician or another. Given all the attention — and the millions of dollars raised within the Jewish community to help defeat these #candidates — you’d think the greatest existential threat to #American #Jews was coming from the left.

    But a new #book by #historian #StevenRoss is here to tell you: You’d be mistaken.

    “What you’ve seen seeping in on the far left is more anti-Israel and some #antisemitism,” #Ross told me in a phone interview. “But here’s the thing: the left has never called for death to people, the right has.”

  3. Do you want to know how I can so easily tell when someone's use of the hashtag #Jew or #Jewish is antisemitic when reference to the Israel/Palestine conflict? When they use Jew or Jewish but then use #Palestinian and not #Muslim or #Arab.

    If the hashtag were merely descriptive of those involved, they'd surely use both right?

  4. "We turn now to new revelations from a former Justice Department attorney who’s filed a whistleblower complaint claiming that the Trump administration task force charged with investigating antisemitism pushed universities into massive settlements despite turning up little to no evidence of antisemitism on campus.

    Haley Van Erem, a former career attorney in the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, said in her complaint that the government’s probes into schools like Harvard, Brown and Columbia were, quote, “an unlawful process designed to achieve predetermined political goals.”

    Brown University settled for $50 million. Columbia settled for $200 million. Harvard refused to settle, and a judge threw out a case against the university.

    Democratic Representative Jamie Raskin, the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, has launched a probe into the whistleblower allegations. He wrote in a statement, quote, “It has been apparent that its investigations have been structured deliberately to harass and intimidate rather than protect anyone from discrimination.”"

  5. Antisemitism och partisympatier.

    Om man läser tidningen Expressen, så skulle man aldrig tro att verkligheten ser ut så här.

  6. If you're wondering, this is how a public intellectual creates a moral excuse for racial violence against a minority.

    Take something that is sometimes (or even often) true for an individual, apply it to the entire group, then blame that group for the violence they will eventually receive.

    Cops, rightwingers, and nazis do this against black Americans with crime and Arab or Muslim Americans with terrorism.

    Interestingly, Zionism, like terrorism, is defined and thus controlled, by the persecuting group.

    "#Farleft #streamer and political #activist #HasanPiker has suggested that pro-#Israel #Jewish #Americans are “making #antisemitism worse” by expressing support for the Jewish State.

    “People don’t f*** with Israel any longer,” he said.

    “If #Jews in #America keep putting this idea out there that they are singularly invested in Israel, eventually someone’s going to come around and take action, not against the State of Israel, mind you, but against American Jews."

  7. Jews were legally considered a separate race in the US through WW2. The 1987 S.C. decision in Shaare Tefila Congregation v. Cobb is based on it.

    All of my people's migration documents list their race as Hebrew. This isn't moving forward. I'm not saying it's good or bad. It's just not new.

    "The state of #California is poised to become the first in the nation to recognize being #Jewish as an #ethnic and #racial, not just a #religious, identity.

    On Aug. 13, a key committee of its state #Senate passed a bill that would add “Jewish” to its long list of recognized identities. This is an important step forward in a longstanding debate about whether that label denotes just a religion or is an #ethnicity or #race. As The #NewYorkTimes observes, it is “a first step toward acknowledging and demystifying the multifaceted nature of Jewish identity.”

    But it comes at a dangerous moment for #American #Jews, a moment of rising #antisemitism and anti-Jewish #hatecrimes."

    Wondering if Fagan's rejection of the IHRA sophistry can be put before the Australian Bell royal commission into antisemitism?

    It needs to be IMO as that commission has I believe publically subscribed to the IHRA definition which has it fundamentally flawed.

    Gad, I’m in awe at our judical system and the critical thinking our judges displaysometimes…
    “On Tuesday this week a momentous decision on freedom of speech and the issue of criticism of Israel was delivered by Justice Des Fagan, a senior member of the New South Wales Supreme Court. The decision is a wake-up call to politicians, universities and other institutions who have adopted the IHRA (International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance) definition of antisemitism, pushed by the partisan antisemitism commissioner Jillian Segal.”

  11. Montreal is once again taking a very dangerous vote, one that is cynical, based on very sketchy legal foundations and potentially places the Jewish population of Montreal at risk by further inflaming tensions against an already embattled population.

  12. Win! A NSW Supreme Court judgment has clearly distinguished criticism of Israel from antisemitism, settling important questions about the IHRA conflation and its weaponizing by governments and institutions.

    “The IHRA core text is so verbose and imprecise that it could not realistically be attributed to the ordinary, reasonably informed member of the Australian public,” Justice Fagan says. The examples, he says, “indicate that the IHRA wording is not intended to give effect to the extant common understanding of antisemitism” but is directed to grafting “onto the community’s abhorrence of antisemitism, understood as hostility to Jews for their Jewishness, a parasitic rejection of protest against Israel. Seen in that light, the IHRA proposal is detached from the reality of the common usage and understanding of antisemitism in this country.”

  13. RE: mstdn.social/@fatsam/117135964

    this is the guy who brags about being part of the conspiracy that assassinated Israeli PM Yitzhak Rabin.

    this is the guy who was found guilty of #terrorism by #Israel and served prison time for it.

    this is the guy who may still be in USA’s no-entry terrorism lists.

    this is the guy who was empowered by the corporatist fascists of the #DemocraticParty; who, like #JoeBiden, called themselves “christian zionists” while accusing #GenZ of #antisemitism for protesting Palestinian #genocide
