Summer of terrorism? Pro-Hamas thugs launch violent assault on Jews going to synagogue in Los Angeles
American Thinker ^ | 06/24/24 | Monica Showalter

In a sparsely reported story, pro-Hamas thugs have launched an organized attack on Jews in the Pico-Robertson area of Los Angeles, just outside Beverly Hills, hunting Jewish residents down where they live, beating many, and preventing them from entering their own synagogue for religious observances.

According to City News Service, whose story was just seven paragraphs long:

“ Scattered violence and fist fights broke out Sunday between Palestinian supporters and supporters of Israel in the Pico-Robertson area of Los Angeles, where police in riot gear attempted to restore order.

The trouble began at 10:52 a.m. in the 9000 block of Pico Boulevard, Los Angeles Police Department Officer Tony Im told City News Service.

Pro-Palestinian demonstrators had gathered in front of the Abas Torah synagogue at 9040 W. Pico Blvd. and were met with counter-demonstrators, some carrying Israeli flags.

Heated verbal confrontations grew physical shortly thereafter, with several scuffles occurring in streets throughout the neighborhood. Video from the scene showed punches being thrown and some people wielding the handles of protest signs as weapons.

How this differs from terrorism is unknown.

They should be armed to defend themselves.

“preventing them from entering their own synagogue for religious observances”

That’s a violation of the FACE act.

“They should be armed to defend themselves.”

Even in Israel, they supported SERIOUS gun control, at least until Oct. 7th*.

There’s no hope for this bunch.

*and probably still support some gun control there

It’s okay if they attack Jews because white people are racist.

This is reaffirmed in Federal Law Protections for Religious Liberty:
A Notice by the Justice Department on 10/26/2017
“Religious liberty is not merely a right to personal religious beliefs or even to worship in a sacred place. It also encompasses religious observance and practice.”

https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/10/26/2017-23269/federal-law-protections-for-religious-liberty

This means the US Government has to act to protect the people, not just synagogue or church security people or even the local police or deputies.

So where are the police? Looking at their pension plans or something?

Number of licensed conceal-carry permits in L.A. County: around 3500 which is up from around 150 four years ago. But L.A. county has a population of nearly 10,000,00, so legal concealed carriers are kind of rare.

What about the Summer of 2020, when violent black underclass thugs and Antifa were wreaking havoc and the police did nothing but kneel?
I’m so sick of this double standard

Its time for Jews to go on the offense...
They must start attacking all moslems...
It’s beginning to remind me of 1937...

Did violent black thugs and trust-fund nepo Antifa brats terrorize the country in 2020 while politicians like Pelosi and cops kneeled for them?
Yes or no?
I didn’t say anything bad about God’s chosen people.

“There are now pogroms in the USA?”

There’s a word I never needed or wanted to learn the meaning of.

I want to know how many of these barbaric heathens are Coyote Joe’s “new comers”.
The media seems to keep information quiet about them.

Not sure if Orthodox do. Messianic Jews do.

How many Jewish Americans will be left in the fan club for the Dem Party by election day?

The days of their belief in myths about the Dems being for the “little guy” and downtrodden minorities should be over.
Their mommies told them as tots on the floor that they should hate the other side but the Dems are the ones they should outgrow when they set aside stuffed animals and toys.
