Not sure I'd call this effort on the part of left wing Jewish groups representative of the Jewish community, just a radical political subgroup.
I never heard a call for this rally. Besides, marches in front of the Capitol building make our Legislators nervous, and they are seen to get irrationally oppressive when they’re nervous. Rational people would be inclined to stay away. Better to hold such rallies where the Jews already are, in numbers. And make sure your rally announcement is actually heard by those who you wish to attend.
Zero tolerance for Jew-hatred, unless they are black, progressive, or Muslim. Zero tolerance for right wingers, because they are all presumed Jew-haters even if they do right by Jews. These shmucks have no moral authority to even speak of Jew-hatred. They are in bed with Jew haters, and everyone knows it.
Could this explain why there was a holocaust?
Sure. The Judenrat is just waiting for the occasion to step forward.
I never heard of it, which is not surprising, I suppose.
I do wish I had been invited, so I could have had the pleasure of declining.
You’re on the wrong website.
Stormfront or the Democratic Underground is more your speed.
Well, I’m Israeli and never heard of any Americans traveling “for their Kibbutz”. It’s plausible some kibbutz’s suckered volunteer services from stupid liberals, though. To my knowledge, all but a handful of these socialist utopias failed, and the ones that survived became capitalist, albeit member-owned.
As for “regularly attending Temple,” well, there you go. There is but one Temple, and it currently has a neo-pagan mosque on top of it.
In any case, I have never understood their continued support for a party that works against the interests of Israel. No Country is perfect and its people often do not agree with what its political leaders do but Israel has every right to protect itself and the Democrats openly disagree with that stance. I cannot wrap my head around their acceptance of Omar and de facto support of her.
The organizers refused to permit Republican congressional leaders, former Trump administration officials, evangelical leaders or conservative media superstars to speak at the event. They would not permit Holocaust survivors or victims of Palestinian terror attacks to speak.
Instead, the rally featured one progressive activist after another, followed by Democrat spokesmen and administration representatives. A Reform leader attacked Israel and the “occupation.” The speakers raved over President Joe Biden, even though he has hired men and women to serve in senior positions in his administration who have records of anti-Semitic statements, support for BDS, Iran and Palestinian terrorism.
Speakers attacked right-wing extremists and neo-Nazis. They did not attack the anti-Semitic lawmakers in the Democrat congressional caucus or criticize the party leaders who promote rather than condemn them.
The speakers failed to condemn Black Lives Matter despite its open anti-Semitism and despite the fact that Jewish institutions and businesses were specifically targeted by BLM rioters.
‘Jewish votes and voices don’t matter’
My experience is that these rallies do nothing.. they only make the attendee feel good. I have gone to many,
Looks like every single position taken by these self-appointed activists is anathema to their intended following. Typical overreach. Try to include everything, and everybody is disappointed enough to stay away. To push for a goal, you have to focus. To do otherwise is to reveal yourself as nothing more than an opportunist.
You are blaming the Jews for the Holocaust?
*You are blaming the Jews for the Holocaust?*
I blame governments. The holocaust was not the first genocide but you would think it was the only one. There will be more to come. Pardon me for not answering your question.
That is VERY INCLUSIVE.
We can very well blame those Jews in America who were more afraid of anti-Semitism in America rising if there were an influx of Jews from Eastern Europe, so did nothing whatever to pressure FDR to loosen admission standards for refugees. We can very well blame Jews in the Mandate who went along with further restrictions of Jews immigrating there, and the British blockade of the coast. We can very well blame Jews who did the Nazis’ dirty work on the Judenrats, providing them with lists of names so they could begin deportations to ‘work camps’.
At the same time, the blame must also fall on FDR, Churchill and Stalin for their respective parts in tacitly allowing the atrocities to occur. Oh, well. Goys will be goys. They had a war to win and all that.
But what hurts the most is these so-called Jewish leaders’ selfishness and fecklessness in the face of genocidal horror. They were looking out for themselves.
And these establishment types are of exactly that mold, except they are also looking out for an agenda that is incompatible with their alleged role as “Jewish leaders.”
No surprises. This is how they roll. Jewish leaders without any Jewish following or interest in Jewish concerns, only big donors.
Black “leaders” of the same sort can doubtless be found.
