My Old Friend Is Ripping Down Posters of Kidnapped Children

Around the world, young people are tearing down photographs of innocent Israelis abducted by Hamas. One of them is Sarah.

. . .
I was scrolling Instagram this week when I came across another one of these videos. This one was of a woman and a man together ripping down the posters in Williamsburg. I almost skipped past it when I noticed something. I turned up the volume.

After the woman finishes scraping the remainders of the poster from the street post, while muttering the word calba, the Arabic word for dog, she then turns to the camera—presumably to the person filming her vandalism—and says, “F__k you. F__k you. And burn in hell.” And that’s when my heart dropped: I know her.

This excerpt is from the middle of the article. The best writing is at the outset. More and more this type of anti-semitism is becoming apparent in everyday life. It may not yet be the "Second Coming of Hitler" but it is analogous to the hate towards Jews in the 20's and early 30's.

Arm yourself, they will not stop pushing until the are stopped.

Never again.

"In her online bio it says that she has a master’s in social work from University of Chicago and that she is working to better her community through “internal, interpersonal, and systems change.” It also says that she is “dedicated to supporting queer and trans youth as they learn to love themselves, radically and unapologetically, and gain a healthier understanding of their resilience and power.” (Sarah perhaps doesn’t know that queerness can get you arrested, and far worse, in Gaza.)"

I'm listening to Bob Jones talking about this right now with guests:

Seems like every “activist” these days has “queer spectrum disorder.”

It is unbearable to think that I was friends with this person. But I was. I know this person. I knew her. She was not an antisemite. She was not a sadist.

Perhaps. Or perhaps she did a really good job of hiding it. Or you did a less than stellar job of detecting it.

Perhaps it was always lurking there, and her Master's Degree in satanic evil brought it out.

Part of the problem is that garbage piece of trash George W. Bush. Islam attacked us on 9/11. Just as Imperial Japan attacked us on December 7.

FDR correctly identified the enemy. George W. Bush said “Islam is peace.”
FDR sent us down the right road. Bush send us off into a swamp.

Bush’s error will be very difficult to correct. Many weak minds believe him. Sad to say, but it might take another 9/11. And even if so, who will be in charge? An FDR type or a Bush type?

Unfortunately.

Yet so few of us are willing to do the one thing that will stop them...

And don’t kid yourself... If you aren’t willing to do it now, you won’t... EVER. Even in a no choice self-defense ‘them or me’ situation.

Another stupid queer who happily ignores the fact that her muzzie heroes would throw her off a roof without blinking an eye.

Hey Candace,

For some strange reason, Marxists don't have a problem with internally conflicting views and hypocrisy.

For example, there are many Jews on the Left who don't seem (yet) to have a problem with its growing anti-Semitism. Then there are many LGBTQueers on the Left who don't seem to mind that they wouldn't last a day in the Islamic world before being tossed off a roof.

Also, what about all the BLM Marxists who don't care that blacks are killing blacks by the truckload in every Marxist Democrat city? And don't forget all the Marxist white people who believe white people are evil.

In normal humans, this cognitive dissonance would be painful as hell. But apparently, the Marxist brainwashing these people have undergone has numbed them to such pain.

Sarah’s last name would be a handy piece of information.

Still your ‘friend’?

“They are as anodyne as the missing children that used to appear on the side of American milk cartons”

You guys remember that?

I weep for my Jewish friends and neighbors.

When I was growing up, I always wondered how the masses of people could let the atrocities of WWII happen. I read and studied a lot.

When the pandemic first began, I saw it happening all over again, but in a different way.

Fear was the catalyst. Fear because people were misinformed.
False
Evidence
Appearing
Real.

That fear led to hatred. Hatred led to many awful things done to others in name of *science*.

This current misinformation/fear/hatred of Jews and Israel is spawning more of the same horrific behavior that we’ve recently witnessed with the pandemic.

I hope people’s eyes are being opened. This is real hatred, more so than what we experienced with just some new wave of germ warfare.

I pray that Israel and Jews will be supported by their fellow man, instead of being torn down and slaughtered.

After WWII, the mantra was “never again”. Well, here we are. Again.

I read some of the commentary following the article, which I found informative, and food for thought.

My guess is they share similar views on everything, except for this.

[MNDude]

I remember I was shocked on 2022 hiw many Muslims he was letting into the country. Wars overseas, Patriot Actball would have been unnecessary if we stopped the importing.

I guess that was his point.

From the article:

We weren’t close friends, but we performed in a show we wrote together along with five other women, and we were friendly enough to have hung out more than a few times.
...
don’t know how she went from the girl I performed with at Kresge Hall, ranting about feminism and consent—typical college-aged defiance and edge

Huh ... ranting about feminism and consent was NOT part of my college experience, nor was it "typical" of my peers. Far from it. But then, I was studying physics not minority grievance studies ...

My story tops that. My best friend from 5th grade to adulthood stole a Stradivarius.
