Hen Mazzig on X - "Governor Josh Shapiro’s house was burnt down. Congressional candidate Scott Weiner was harassed until he left a Pride March. Representative Jared Moskowitz received hateful voicemails threatening to kill all Jews. Representative Dan Goldman was banned from a coffee shop and his office was vandalized. Harassing and attacking Jewish lawmakers is an attempt to push Jews out of public life. That is not criticism of Israel. It is the end of a free society."
Matt Field | Facebook - "In January, Scott Wiener stood up and called Israel’s war in Gaza genocide. It was the word his own activist coalition had spent a year demanding from him. It didn’t buy him a single day. At San Francisco’s Trans March this week, a mob surrounded him, screamed, and put hands on him while shouting about his “Israeli handlers.” He fled a march he had walked for twenty-two straight years, the first time he didn’t finish it. Two nights earlier, a man cornered him at a bar, screamed in his face, and got dragged out by staff, then stood outside pounding the wall and shrieking his name into the street. That same man, in December 2023, stalked Wiener through an airport and onto a plane, screaming at him about his “tainted bloodline.” You can recant a position on a war. You cannot recant your blood."
The cope is he doesn't believe it. Clearly all anti-Zionist Jews don't believe it and so need to be condemned. But of course, anti Zionism is totally different from anti Semitism
Comments: "The trans community is bullying Scott Wiener for believing he and his people have a right to exist. Curious."
"And then there are those who are Jewish and live the pick me life. Right up until…The Yevsektsiya were Jews. They blamed Zionists and traditional Jews for alienating Soviet society. They believed that if Jews abandoned religion, nationalism, and every trait the regime found objectionable, Communism would reward them with acceptance.They helped shut down synagogues, persecuted Hebrew teachers, and denounced fellow Jews as enemies of progress. When they were no longer useful, the Soviet state disbanded the Yevsektsiya. Many of its members were executed during Stalin's purges. Others disappeared into labor camps. Their loyalty bought them nothing.The Antizionist League of Iraq was made up of Jews as well. Its members insisted that Zionism was the source of hostility toward Iraqi Jews. They argued that if Jews publicly rejected the idea of a Jewish state, suspicion and hatred would disappear. They were wrong. The League itself was dissolved and its leaders imprisoned. The Farhud left hundreds of Jews dead, Jewish homes and businesses were looted and destroyed, and over the following years an ancient community was driven into exile. Nobody stopped to ask whether their victims were Zionists before burning their homes or stabbing them in the streets.A century ago, Baghdad had one of the largest Jewish communities in the world. Jews made up roughly a quarter of the city's population. Today there are fewer than ten Jews left in all of Iraq. Trying to prove that you are one of the "good Jews" has never altered the outcome.German Jews were among the most assimilated Jews in the world. They were educated, patriotic, and deeply proud of being German. Many of them fought proudly in WWI. They often looked down on poorer Jews arriving from Eastern Europe. Some convinced themselves that antisemitism was directed only at those less refined than themselves. Even the Association of German National Jews sought accommodation with the Nazi movement and declared its opposition to Zionism. The Nazis outlawed the organization anyway. Its members were deported and murdered alongside the rest of European Jewry.Today there are fewer Jews in all of Europe than there are Arab citizens of Israel. So much for Europe lecturing Israel about tolerance.Once a society begins stigmatizing Jews, or even just one category of Jews, the writing is already on the wall. Assimilation has never provided lasting protection. Appeasement has never provided lasting protection. Explaining ourselves politely and hoping to be accepted as the "good ones" has never provided lasting protection.We are living through a dangerous moment. The United States, and perhaps Argentina, remain among the few places where Jews are not broadly stigmatized. But even that cannot be taken for granted. A 2023 Harvard-Harris poll found that two thirds of Americans between the ages of 18 and 24 agreed that "Jews as a class are oppressors and should be treated as oppressors." Those young people will shape the future of public opinion.We have no choice but to speak plainly about antizionism.Because if antizionism were merely opposition to Netanyahu, it would not predate Netanyahu. If it were merely opposition to Israeli policy, it would not predate Israel. Long before 1948, Jews were being massacred for refusing to accept their place as a tolerated minority.The uncomfortable truth is that antizionism did not emerge in response to Jewish power. It emerged in response to the idea that Jews should possess power at all.Kind explanations did not save the Jews of Baghdad. Compliance did not save the Jews of Germany. Revolutionary zeal did not save the Jews of the Soviet Union.Clarity matters. Memory matters. And the refusal to lie about what we are facing matters most of all"
Hen Mazzig on X - "U.S. Congressional candidate Scott Wiener was harassed by a Free Palestine activist. 🇺🇸 Scott, who is Jewish, had changed his stance on Israel, parroting the typical Free Palestine rhetoric, in order to get easy votes. It turns out, to nobody's surprise, that he still isn't spared from falling under the "Zionist" label that the Free Palestine crowd uses."
Joel Pollak on X - "You can see the fear in his eyes, and while I have little in common with him, there is something relatable about this moment.

James Lindsay, anti-Communist on X - "This opinion might not be popular (but not too unpopular), but I disagree that Scott Wiener was harassed in this park because he is Jewish, and empathy for him on that front is semi-suicidal and misplaced. In my view, Wiener was not harassed because he is Jewish but rather because he didn't take the full Leftist-approved Gaza line voluntarily before being challenged. Saying he was harassed for being Jewish misses the crucial point and gives him cover he doesn't deserve. Radical Muslims would harass him for being Jewish, of course, and so would Woke Right chuds and their Neo-Nazi friends, but Leftists wouldn't. Not directly, anyway, and probably not actually intentionally. Leftists don't think like that, and this is very important For Leftists, the crucial variable in play is whether or not you espoused their fully correct ideological point of view spontaneously without having to be told because you recognized it on your own (that is, you're socially enlightened, by their definition). The "transformed" person in Leftism, who is the only person who has worth, recognizes the world "from the people's standpoint," and to fail to recognize it is to prove that you are not correctly oriented and thus in line with the oppressor. This is a completely different line of thought than harassing him because he is Jewish. All the way back to Karl Marx in his 1843 (very early Marx) "On the Jewish Question," it's clearly articulated that the Left's problem with Jews is that they have a different way of viewing the work, which is being Jewish. The problem, though, is the worldview being wrong. Marx's solution is to "remove the Jewishness from the Jew," to paraphrase. This difference is crucially important. These two things are not the same. Scott Wiener built and nourished the revolutionary Leftist ideology and advanced it considerably. Then he failed it on its own terms. He deserves no sympathy for this, especially given how much information there is about this being inevitable and the fate of every single one of the people pushing Leftism. Don't give him sympathy for something he doesn't deserve for reasons that aren't correct."

The UN’s toxic obsession with Israel lets the world’s worst regimes off scot-free - "The United Nations has taken its unhealthy obsession with Israel to a new extreme, with the claim by an independent UN commission that it deliberately targeted Palestinian children in Gaza... As has been the practice in much Western media coverage throughout the conflict that Hamas initiated with the Oct 7 massacre, the BBC breathlessly reported it, without mentioning until paragraph eight that the body’s three-person panel “does not officially speak for the UN”. The old Carl Sagan axiom – extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence – appears lost on the panel. The report claims that Israel targeted Palestinian children in Gaza directly by shooting at their vital organs using precision weapons, such as quadcopter drones (yes, really) and snipers, and by using high-impact weapons in strikes on residential buildings, schools, and displacement camps crowded with children. And yet, despite being the most broadcast war of all time, the evidence that is actually provided for such bold claims is extraordinarily thin. Of course, for the usual suspects, this is enough: there’s nothing so devilish about the Jewish state that they won’t swallow it. Then there’s the charge of genocide made by what the BBC calls an “expert panel”. This charge isn’t even claimed by the disgraced ICC chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, who sought arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and his defence minister, Yoav Gallant, for war crimes. Genocide, after all, has a specific meaning in international law and requires demonstrable intent to destroy a national, ethnic, racial or religious group, in whole or in part. The threshold was deliberately set high. It is not satisfied merely because a war costs the lives of a large number of civilians, however awful those deaths may be. For decades, the UN has displayed a remarkable capacity to reserve its greatest indignation for Israel while relegating genuinely catastrophic abuses elsewhere to the diplomatic margins. Year after year, Israel attracts more country-specific resolutions at the General Assembly and Human Rights Council than the rest of the world combined, while the mass internment of Uyghurs in China, the slaughter in Syria, the devastation of Sudan and the systematic starvation of civilians in conflicts from Ethiopia to Yemen struggle to command any institutional energy. The Human Rights Council maintains a permanent agenda item devoted exclusively to Israel – a distinction enjoyed by no other country on earth, including North Korea, Iran and Russia. Even former Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon acknowledged the UN had produced a “disproportionate volume of resolutions, reports and conferences criticising Israel”. I encountered this phenomenon during my own time at the United Nations. It was impossible for any Israeli to secure a senior appointment in the organisation, no matter how well qualified. Israel is the only country of its political and economic weight never to have held a position at Assistant Secretary-General level (roughly a two-star general equivalent) or above. I also encountered cases of UN staff and contractors self-censoring on issues related to Israel for fear of being accused of anti-Palestinian, anti-Muslim or anti-Arab bias, as damaging an accusation as one of racism. But by far the worst example of this bias is embodied by UNRWA – the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East, some of whose staff have been accused of being directly involved in the Oct 7 attack on Israel. As recently as 2024, the UK maintained a longstanding position of condemning the UN’s hostility towards the world’s only Jewish state. Successive British governments rejected the Commission of Inquiry’s open-ended mandate and criticised its obsessive focus on Israel. But that consensus has been overturned by a Labour government more ideologically and politically sympathetic to this excessive level of scrutiny, or more in hock to special interest groups as obsessively hostile to Israel as the UN is. The tragedy is that, while the UN has rightly attracted condemnation from informed critics, it has somehow retained an almost sacrosanct halo among much of the wider public. To many, the UN remains the ultimate authority in international affairs. That reverence allows weak evidence, activist assumptions and ideological predispositions to be laundered into accepted wisdom. The UN’s disproportionate focus on Israel has long ceased to be a curiosity of UN procedure. It has become a pathology that distorts priorities, consumes diplomatic bandwidth and allows some of the world’s worst regimes to escape meaningful scrutiny by sheltering in the comforting consensus of anti-Israel indignation. It has also become a cottage industry, with networks inside the UN acting in concert with well-organised bad actors like Qatar and Turkey to sustain a relentless momentum of anti-Israeli attacks. Many casual observers may believe the Commission when it claims to be defending vulnerable children. In reality, by substituting ideology for evidence and prejudice for impartiality, it undermines the credibility of international law itself. And, in the process, demonises Israel, Israelis, and Jews at large as bloodthirsty child killers."
Weird. Terrorism supporters keep claiming that the UN proclaimed that Israel was guilty of genocide

All my bank accounts has been frozen and none of my banks are telling me why
As far as I'm aware, the organisation I used to work with was not a proscribed organisation until 2019. What'a funny is that it was a political decision, not a decision of national security. I provided financial aid to deal with the crisis in Beirut and now they have frozen my accounts? Is this illegal and if so how can I pay for my solicitor if I can't access my bank account?"
"You used to work with Hezbollah, and then you sent them or a closely affiliated organisation funds from your UK bank account? You could quite possibly have violated the Terrorism Act 2000; in this case, the police will be in contact soon."
"There is a DISTINCTION between the military wing and the political wing of the organisation."
"It's worth noting that Hezbollah themselves deny distinction between its military and political wings. See: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/proscribed-terror-groups-or-organisations--2 on page 14. This quote from Hezbollah's second in command Naim Qassem: “All political, social and jihad work is tied to the decisions of this leadership,” he said. “The same leadership that directs the parliamentary and government work also leads jihad actions in the struggle against Israel.” Source: https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2009-apr-13-fg-lebanon-hezbollah13-story.html So it seems even Hezbollah don't agree they aren't terrorists."
Of course, OP's cope was that if the LA Times Hezbollah's second in command Naim Qassem, then it means he never said it
Muslim Author: Palestinian-Israeli Conflict is About Religion, Not Land - "Dr Tawfik Hamid, a Muslim author and journalist, explains that the conflict between the Palestinians and Israel is a purely religious issue, and not about land. He says that the problem is that they don’t want Jews to live there, and that if all Jews were to become Muslim, they would not have a problem with Israel. He says that the Arab media confirms that the conflict is a religious one and that they talk about the prophecies to kill and murder Jews. He goes on to say that if you listen to the sermons given in mosques, you will understand that it is a religious issue, not over the land."
He says that if you listen to Arab media, they are very open about their religious motivation to fulfil prophecies (as in the Bukhari) to slaughter every Jew in the world, and if the US pushes Israel to concede land and to establish a Palestinian state, it will encourage the jihadists, so they should do the reverse: don't show the jihadists that you are weak or they will attack you even more because they'll feel they are losing

The Unpersuadable Audience (The Problem Isn't Israel's Messaging) - "One of the more frustrating criticisms I hear from supporters of Israel is that Israel’s public relations are bad. The complaint comes in many forms. Israel’s spokespeople are ineffective. Its social media strategy is weak. Its advocates miss opportunities. Its messaging is clumsy. If only Israel communicated better, the argument goes, the world would understand. None of that makes much sense to me. The criticism reminds me of someone standing at the edge of a raging wildfire complaining that the local fire department isn’t doing a very good job—without noticing that the firefighters have been equipped with squirt guns while everyone else has fire engines and endless reservoirs of water. Israel is a nation of roughly ten million people, with about seven million Jews—that’s nearly half of the world’s entire Jewish population of fifteen million. Fifteen million might sound like a large number until you place it beside a world population of eight billion. If every Jew on earth stood shoulder to shoulder in a single crowd, they would represent less than two-tenths of one percent of humanity. That is the communications battlefield on which Israel is expected to prevail. And on the other side we do not see merely opposing viewpoints. There are states, media networks, political movements, universities, NGOs, influencers, bots, and vast oceans of money invested in the creation and dissemination of anti-Israel—and often overtly anti-Jewish—sentiment. There is the propaganda machinery of Iran. There is Qatar's immense financial reach and its state-sponsored media network, Al Jazeera, arguably the most influential anti-Israel media platform in the world. There are Russian and Chinese information operations—coordinated networks that seed anti-Western narratives across social platforms, for which the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a reliable accelerant. There are social media algorithms that reward outrage and flatten complexity. There are hundreds of millions of people predisposed to see the conflict through ideological, religious, or historical lenses that Israel has little power to alter. Against this backdrop, people ask why Israel’s messaging isn’t winning. Winning against what? What exactly is the statement Israel has failed to make? That Jews were massacred, raped, kidnapped, and burned alive on October 7? Shouldn’t that alone have been enough? That Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran openly seek Israel’s destruction? Shouldn’t that have been persuasive? That Israelis simply want to live in peace and security? All of these things have been said. They have been said repeatedly. And then come the historical arguments: Jewish indigeneity, the Mandate, the Peel Commission, the Balfour Declaration, the United Nations vote, and endless debates over Israel’s supposed “right to exist.” In a sense, October 7 achieved one of Sinwar’s aims beyond the immediate horror—it helped create an atmosphere in which Jews are forced to explain why Israel should exist at all. I refuse to participate in that exercise. I do not defend my own right to exist. I do not defend the right of my family to exist. Mexico does not defend its right to exist. Jordan does not defend its right to exist. No other nation on earth does—not even North Korea. Israel is a reality, not a hypothesis... when someone suggests that concern for one’s own people is only legitimate if their suffering can be proven to exceed all others, I’d note that no one applies that standard to anyone else."

SJP political program calls to 'usurp' universities to 'weaken the US' - "National Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) is seeking to usurp university institutions in order to weaken the United States of America, according to an official political program published on Wednesday, as they saw themselves engaged in a class war against what they saw as pillars of economic and social support for the existing political system. “The University and the Reproduction of Capitalist-Imperialist Society,” SJP position paper, written in 2025, largely reviewed the role of universities through a Marxist theoretical lens but also set out a seven-point strategic program for the anti-Israel organization’s operations. The points and analyses in the program establish that the tactical objectives of divestment, campus radicalization, and confrontations are in service of the strategic objective of replacing the current universities with revolutionary education camps, which in turn would serve the grand strategy of undermining the US. “Universities have functioned as pillars of colonial domination and imperialist conquest. To not just achieve divestment, but to weaken US imperialism, we must unite with disenfranchised sectors of the university to develop the structures and capacity to weaken the power of the war profiteers as a whole,” read the seventh point in the programming, which called to control all sectors of the academic institutions and unseat boards of trustees. “By asserting our democratic will in the university, we transform the campus into an incubator for ideas and a platform for struggle, not a site of capitalist reproduction.” The sixth point in the program, calling for alliances with other revolutionary movements within and outside university systems, explained that advancing the “global cause for justice” was required to “weaken the US empire within its core” and advance the Palestinian movement... According to the analyses within the document, to “dismantle the university” would entail eliminating competitive grading and “liberal civility” so that they could engage in “mass-based political education” to foster a Marxist revolutionary “class consciousness.”... The two-year “student intifada,” which the organization saw as a “war between SJP and the university,” was therefore not a conflict targeting those specific institutions but against a “ruling class.” The boards of trustees were part of this ruling class, necessitating the “complete dissolution of the board of trustees and the transfer of the university into the hands of the masses.” Those who showed loyalty to the academic institutions, engaging in fraternities and sororities, university athletics, and other school societies, were seen as the “good student” and compared to the “petty bourgeois.” They were part of an opposing social force, according to SJP."

UK sends extra £10 million to Palestinian Authority despite lack of progress on reforms - "The UK will provide an extra £10 million for the Palestinian Authority (PA) across 2026 to help pay salaries, Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper has confirmed.
