Pro-Israel Parents Booted From Heated School Board Meeting
New York Post ^ | Nov. 18, 2023 | Deirdre Bardolf

Posted on 11/18/2023 4:03:14 PM PST by nickcarraway

A parent school board meeting in Brooklyn descended into hate and chaos as more than two dozen people, including many Israel supporters, were tossed from the virtual event.

The Wednesday meeting was the first for the Community Educational Council for District 14, which covers Williamsburg and Greenpoint, since its controversial promotion of a Nov. 9 pro-Palestinian rally in which hundreds of students walked out of school, including some who yelled “f–k the Jews!”

A father who questioned the organizations CEC 14 partnered with for the walkout, including Youth for Palestine, was told by Vice President Marissa Manzanares, “Redirect yourself or you will be removed.”

Another dad, who said he fears for the safety of his Jewish kids, tried to address the CEC’s posts about “settler colonialism” and “apartheid” but was cut off and berated.

It is time for separation of school and state.

Unfortunate for these NYC Jews that no doubt have been voting for the Rats that ultimately facilitated the psychotic Pali sympathizers.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

It’s time for the eradication of the DoE and the dismantling of the public education system.

Far too many Jews need to wake up and realize that their liberal political proclivities will NOT protect them or save them when the all out persecution of Jews really comes to a head.

#3: "Unfortunate for these NYC Jews that no doubt have been voting for the Rats that ultimately facilitated the psychotic Pali sympathizers."

Absolutely. They fancy that they are so smart, but they never figured out the meaning of Aesop's The Frog and the Scorpion. Note: The Hasidim don't send their kids to public school.

While generally so, that is not always the case.

Williamsburg is PREDOMINANTLY Hassidic and ORTHODOX Jews; who NEVER vote DEM!

So your statement is garbage.

Likely false; generally speaking, the more Orthodox, the more pro Israel and the more likely to vote Republican (not that it helps that much in New York or many other Democrat strongholds).

Not exactly so; there are Hassidim that use public schools when it makes sense for their families.

Sweet tyranny...
Now we are experiencing precisely what the serfs went through in the Soviet Union and North Korea...

Just imagine what the government’s children go through every single day in those wonderful government indoctrination centers that the moronic serfs keep committing their offspring to...

That IS what I said!

Not ALL Orthodox nor Hassidic kids go to Yeshivas.

The board can’t handle the truth. They are following in the footsteps of the Nazis and either they really don’t recognize it or they do and like it.

Nearly every teacher in this nation was trained by godless Marxists in Marxist-run colleges of education....even in the private schools.

Your sister believes her children will escape that?

I have an in-law, a Jewish woman from New York who came to Florida and taught school for 30 years and retired. And I can confidently say that she would vote for the Devil with a swastika on his arm running as a Democrat before she would vote for a Republican.

I can no longer deal with that sort of insane thinking

Don’t underestimate the influence of graft. NYC school boards are corrupt. Basically crime gangs. That’s why they brook no opposition.

What school district would that be?

I worked for a relatively conservative school district for 33 years, but I could see the way they were going when I decided to retire!
