The Intersection Of Evil: Hamas, Antifa, BLM, Harvard And Barack Obama
Issues & Insights ^ | 13 Oct, 2023 | I & I Editorial Board

If the most informative response to the Hamas atrocities was Victor Davis Hanson’s Twitter post on Israel’s “50th anniversary war,” then the most interesting was written in The Spectator by Brendan O’Neill, who asked “why isn’t Antifa condemning the tide of anti-Semitism?”

“Where is Antifa?” he wondered. “Where are those self-styled anti-fascists who love to rage against anything that is even vaguely reminiscent of the 1930s?”

He knows what the rest of us do: That there’s nothing anti-fascist about Antifa.

“To the modern left, everything is fascism except actual fascism,” says O’Neill.

“​​They’ve been fighting fantasy fascism for years, yet when real fascism came, they hid, they looked the other way, they made excuses.”

While Antifa conspicuously stays out of sight, Black Lives Matter, the darling of the Democrats, shows up in party hats and whistles, with “​​chapters across the country,” Mediaite reports, “celebrating the terrorist attacks that have claimed hundreds of innocent lives in Israel.”

Harvard students made a splashy appearance, as well – nearly three dozen campus groups have sided with the barbarians. According to the media, a coalition of 34 Harvard student organizations issued a joint statement in which they said they “hold the Israeli regime entirely responsible for all unfolding violence,” as “millions of Palestinians in Gaza have been forced to live in an open-air prison,” and “the apartheid regime is the only one to blame.”

Harvard President Claudine Gay says that the groups don’t speak “for Harvard University or its leadership.” But don’t they? Aren’t they saying out loud what most administrators and professors – not just at Harvard but at universities and colleges across the West – want to say, but don’t yet feel free to publicly voice? Isn’t contempt for Israeli Jews exactly what the students have been taught?

Elements in both groups have since tried to retreat from their hateful actions and comments, but it’s too late. One, their “repentance” is based on public backlash, not the horrors perpetrated by Hamas, and, two, they clearly showed the world who they really are.

One of Harvard’s most famous graduates, Barack Obama – whose puppet has sullied the Oval Office for almost four years now – was for a while also as absent as Antifa. In fact he was so late in defending humanity that the New York Post called him out in an editorial for his silence.

Obama eventually arrived, tweeting on Monday evening about “​​the brazen terrorist attacks on Israel and the slaughter of innocent civilians.” The semi-former president said we must “stand squarely alongside our ally, Israel,” and support that nation’s “right to defend itself against terror.”

It’s meaningless boilerplate language that only true Barack Believers will accept as the sincere expression of his feelings. The rest of us know, as the New York Post editorialized, that this newest war “is the future of the Middle East that Obama, in effect, wanted, fought for and now has achieved: Iran ascendant; nascent normalization between Israel and Arab states in jeopardy; the terrorist group Hamas emboldened and abetted by Tehran to strike viciously against soft targets within Israel.” .....

Another “axis of evil”. A multi dimensional one at that.

These O-13 protestors are HAMAS. They are terror. The FBI needs to pull J6’s in the O-13 gatherings.

If these mobs turn violent and start fights or destruction of property, if the FBI will find FEMA Camps to lock them in exactly the same at J6 peaceful protesters.

The Republicans have Biden (and his family) checkmated, and they should seek immediate releash of J6 protesters in the wake of O13.

Anything short of locking up all these misdirected wantabe terrorists is failing Israel, and American’s.

Why isn’t HITLER mentioned in that list?
Did HITLER’S estate threaten legal action?

Add another count of treason to barry’s indictment (when it finally happens).

These twisted freaks have been funding actual fascism for many years

The left has been funding fascism and its leftist cousin communism.

"Where is Antifa?”

Probably still wearing masks but working for a different employer. I read Iran just picked up a tidy 6 billion dollars recently.
