Jewish Group Vows to Protest Trump's AIPAC Speech
Haaretz.com ^ | 03/17/2016 | The Forward and Sarah Wildman

Donald Trump's appearance at the upcoming AIPAC Policy Conference in Washington has at least one Jewish group planning to protest.

The group of professionals and clergy, which calls itself "Come Together Against Hate," says that Trump and his hate speech have no place at the annual meeting of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.

"We are committed to saying that Donald Trump does not speak for us or represent us, and his values are not AIPAC's values," wrote Rabbis David Paskin of West Palm Beach Florida, and Jesse Olitzky of South Orange, New Jersey in announcing the action.

"They are not the values of the Jewish community. They are not the values of our founders' vision of an America where all citizens are 'endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights.'"

The group, which has a growing growing Facebook presence, will distribute stickers and flyers at the conference, organizers said. They also plan a silent walk-out during Trump's speech, planned for Monday evening (others, they say, will simply not attend); and a simultaneous group Torah teach-in.

And if you let out one little peep about this, one hundred people will call you a Nazi.

This must be the “Jews for Self-Annihilation” Group I’ve heard so much about.

There is a difference between what Trump saus and what others say he said or meant. People mostly know this and it frustrates both the GOPe and progressive socialists/communists alike.

... vision of an America where all citizens are 'endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights.'"

These commies always forget the "citizen" part.
It simply is invisible when they project their hatred.

I wonder if they will report on the number of Jews inside the meeting listening to Trump? Or just the smaller number outside siding against Israel?

Haaretz is the leftwing Israeli paper that wants Israel wiped out more than the muslims do.

Rabbis David Paskin of West Palm Beach Florida, and Jesse Olitzky of South Orange, New Jersey

are not rabbis.

They are common leftwing operatives.

So planning to scream down people who do not agree with your emotional poltical opinions is “coming together against hate” and not an example of hate in action?

They have no concern for Israel. They side with muslim terrorists over Israel.

“Come Together Against Hate,”


I wonder if they can get muslims to buy into that message?

over 70% of Jews vote Democrat, no matter the candidate, therefore, this should not surprise anyone with an independent thinking mind

That’s fine.
We are a big country and one group is not more important than another group.

As a Jew, it gives me no joy to say that these gaggle of self-hating Jews is simply the most disgusting and abased thing I’ve ever encountered short of Nazism and the tsunami of anti-semitism sweeping the world. They already voted, in unison, for probably the most overtly anti-Israel administration in US history and remain too stupid to even figure out they did so. A total embarassment.
