'Threat of imminent attack on US Jews is real'
ABC News ^ | 9/22/16 | Ron Kampeas

Deputy Homeland Security Secretary paints grim picture of Jewish communities' vulnerability to terrorism, says leaders not doing enough.

JTA - Painting a grim picture of Jewish vulnerability in the United States, a top U.S. security official said that the vast majority of funds earmarked to secure non-profits goes to Jewish institutions because their need is most acute.

Alejandro Mayorkas, the Deputy Homeland Security Secretary, speaking Wednesday to the Orthodox Union's annual leadership mission to Washington, said rising extremism in the United States and its threat to the Jewish community keeps him awake at night.

He said the threat had shifted in the last year from the relatively small number of Americans who were radicalized overseas, to homegrown extremists whom the Islamic State terrorist group had reached through the Internet. The FBI was tracking more than one thousand suspected extremists across the United States, and they were to be found in all 50 states, he said.

"They find great access to a radicalizing Islam" on the web, Mayorkas said of the homegrown extremists. "They find what they believe is purpose and meaning in their life."

* Praying for Jews everywhere around the world *

The Lord will be refining them like gold soon.

Zechariah 13:9

And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The LORD is my God.

Yep the Rat’s sadly hypnotize their follower to lead them blindly over the cliff. It’s so amazing to watch it. I call these people SHEEPLE.

[[No the one sad thing that I observe as a member of the Jewish community is that sadly over 60% of my fellow Jews make poor political choices because of their being
do-gooders for the downtrodden in America and the world. Even when they chips are against them they try to help others. A sad but true commentary. That is why in 1935 they didn’t see how bad Hitler was until they killed 6 million + Jews.]]

I can attest to this . I lived in a Jewish neighborhood for a long time so I have a lot of Jewish friends (I’m not Jewish)

I personally have 2 very good friends who are doctors who spend more time doing volunteer work than they do working their paying jobs. They both vote democrat because they think it helps others too and don’t realize that helping others should be a personal thing that one does but government doesn’t help it just creates dependence which breeds nothing but trouble.

+1 American Jews slightly exceed Catholics in their democrat voting pattern.
American Jews living in Israel vote above 85% republican.
The ones lining up to single out the head always miss one point. They are far better explained by being non observant and living in LA and New York. They match the local voting patterns perfectly.

I’ve heard your rhetoric before....in black and white films. “Jews own the coal mines” you say.
Astounding ignorance on your part.

It is already happening in Europe. Jews are attacked, and the authorities look the other way and keep admitting those who hate Jews.

Those attacks won’t end with just being against the Jews.
That is why I called them the canary in the coal mine of a society in an earlier post.

The people they are inviting in just don’t hate the Jews, they hate everybody.

In France, Berlin, and Italy, I saw military-looking armed guards outside of Jewish schools and gathering places over the past 3 summers. Other parts of the world are taking the threats seriously. In the US, too many Jews associated with the Democratic Party and anti-gun legislation to allow for armed guards in visible locations.

This has unfortunately been going on for a long time. Jews have been attacked in Sweden - notably Malmo - for years. Sweden, France and other countries have been admitting so-called immigrants, mainly riff-raff who hate Jews. It is sickening. And these so-called immigrants hate also Christians and women, others also.

Yet Obama and Hillary think it's a good idea to admit them and want even more of these radical Muslims.

Hey newbie, maybe nobody in YOUR circle of acquaintances knew about Soros until you told them, but he's been discussed on FR since its inception (the late '90s). And that SOB doesn't represent "Jews," he represents himself. In fact he's a raging Jew-hater.

As far as coal mine ownership goes (your post #18), would your prefer to own one or to work in one? Obviously the former, like everyone else. Criticizing people for financial success reeks of envy. And envy rots the brain.

Jews: Human Canaries in the World's Coal Mine.

Moron alert.

Lera, I didn’t say all Jews vote for and support democrats, I said “huge numbers”.

You no doubt are a liberal, I say let them reap the harvest they have sown, and I will protect myself. YOu seem to think it’s okay for people to ignore reality then want me to risk my life to save them, I say FU(K them. Let liberals die by the hand they feed

No it’s moronic to think that it will only affect people who vote democrat .

Never once voted dem in my entire life
In fact I was a member of the young republican when I was in high school so I have never been a liberal.

Malmo isn’t safe for any non muslim anymore.
I would not want to have to walk anywhere there.

[[Yet Obama and Hillary think it’s a good idea to admit them and want even more of these radical Muslims]]

(Proverbs 17:23 KJV) A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom to pervert the ways of judgment.

They love their bribes
and Saudis love to bribe them.
It’s why congress didn’t stop his agenda.

[[By huge numbers Jews in the US support, vote for and donate to the Democrat fasicists. So I see it as reaping the harvest they’ve sown.

Sad part is its coservatives eho bail them out time and again]]

1) Not all Jews vote Democrat

2) If it is not safe for a man to walk down the street wearing a kippah it is not safe for any man , woman or child to walk our streets.

3) Your attitude not only stinks it isn’t conservative at all.

Contrary to what you appear to believe, TRUTH is NOT HATE SPEECH! He never said "all Jews" vote Democrat. He never said that they DESERVE to reap the harvest, just that they are reaping it.
