So -- It Wasn’t the Sidewalk After All
American Thinker ^ | 19 Nov, 2023 | Clarice Feldman

Posted on 11/19/2023 4:36:37 AM PST by MtnClimber

This conflagration has exposed as rotten a lot of stupid notions and will lead to the demise of things like “open borders, identity politics, corruption power hungry bureaucrats, Gramscian culture.”

Murder and Mayhem

This week the Ventura County Sheriff arrested Professor Loay Abdelfattah Alnaji in the death of Paul Kessler, a 69 year-old man who had been standing on the sidewalk peacefully supporting Israel. Alnaji, who bashed Kessler with a megaphone, was charged with involuntary manslaughter and battery causing serious bodily injury and both these charges contain special allegations that Alnaji “personally inflicted great bodily injury.” This comes as no surprise to most of us who get their news online but it must have been news to those who read headers which said he died after falling and hitting his head on the sidewalk. Even after no charges were brought against the sidewalk, CNN’s header read “arrest made in death of Jewish protestor who fell and hit his head.” (CNN has now stealthily edited the header.) The media effort to downplay anti-Semitism, like its coverage of the Israeli response to the butchery by Hamas, doesn’t seem fixable. It’s certainly bias, but stupidity also plays a part, as is demonstrated by their claims that they didn’t know the Gaza stringers were Hamas or the scenes of injured civilians in Gaza were Pallywood. Reporters who post on social media regularly display their total ignorance. This week it was the New York Times opinion columnist Elizabeth Spiers, who learned for the first time that Gaza’s Health Ministry -- like every office in Gaza -- is Hamas. (The ignorance must be endemic to the western press, which has been touting Hamas casualty figures for Gaza -- roughly a bazillion civilians and no Hamas terrorists from the moment Israel entered Gaza.)

This is more than just bias in my opinion. This is active hatred of the Jewish people. That a media outlet like CNN would out and out lie about the murder of a Jewish man is bad enough but then to not admit they were wrong. Turns my stomach. This is happening in today’s society and is getting worse. There is no consequences anymore. It’s just “move on, nothing to see here” mentality. No wonder our young people are so messed up!

I thought Jews were added to the list of people that open season had been declared: no license required and no bag limit. Same as for Trump supporters and pro-lifers.

UM pays a total of $18,120,242 to support more than 142 staff members

Granted, not all of that money goes to salaries, but it still works out to over $127,000 per DEI stooge, per year. For producing nothing but division and resentment.

Palestine will be another mess, like Lebanon, Syria, Iraq or Gaza.

And what do these countries all have in common? What trait do they all share? Hmmm, what could it be?

Oh yeah, they are all dominated and controlled by members of a bloodthirsty death cult masquerading as a religion (of peace!).

Islam is, has been, and always will be, a cancer of humanity. You can forget about any significant degree of peace as long as islam endures.

What should scare us (average Americans going about their daily lives) is just how fast and orgainzied these “protest” are. It clearly shows there is an organization within our border creating a “fifth column”.

Moving from “protest” to actual terrorist activities would not be a problem for these organizers (who ever they are).

While our FBI, DOJ and CIA have been going after mothers who protested against porn in school libraries, to members of our military who are patriotic, to grandmothers praying in front of an abortion mill, they don’t seem to have time for the real threat to our nation.

You have to ask why? Could it be that they are part of the fifth column?

[[This is active hatred of the Jewish people]]

Yup. Pure inbred seething, boiling hot hatred of jews. The left scream about racism and how horrible it is all the time, but they are the most hate-filled antisemites and racist people on earth practically (they created the kkk, and supported them for a long time- heck there was even a grand pubah or whatever he was in congress... Sen Byrd, whom the left just adored and revered- Biden himself,has said vile racist things many times, Trump never has, yet the left ignore what Biden said, and condemn Trump as racist)

I don’t recognize the UM abbreviation as used here.

142 influencers eh? Lots of money for factual incorrect propaganda.

Brilliant article, thanks for posting.

Most everyone should READ that article and not only the comments on this post.
