Opinion: Nothing has prepared me for the antisemitism I see on college campuses now
LA Times via MSN ^ | 10/29/2023 | Erwin Chemerinsky

Posted on 10/30/2023 4:09:12 PM PDT by Michael.SF.

I was stunned when students across the country, including mine, immediately celebrated the Hamas terrorist attack in Israel on Oct. 7. Students for Justice in Palestine called the terror attack a “historic win” for the “Palestinian resistance.” A Columbia professor called the Hamas massacre “awesome” and a “stunning victory.” A Yale professor tweeted, “It’s been such an extraordinary day!” while calling Israel a “murderous, genocidal settler state.” A Chicago art professor posted a note reading, “Israelis are pigs. Savages. Very very bad people. Irredeemable excrement…. May they all rot in hell.” A UC Davis professor tweeted, “Zionist journalists … have houses w addresses, kids in school,” adding “they can fear their bosses, but they should fear us more.” There are, sadly, countless other examples.

It is a very difficult time on campuses across the country. Many of our students and faculty members have family and friends in Israel or in Gaza. Many care deeply about the suffering we are seeing, and yet there is no bridge between those who seek the elimination of Israel and those who believe it is essential to have a Jewish state. I hope there will be a time when campus officials can find ways to bring their communities together. But it is not realistic now. This makes it all the more important that they show moral leadership and speak out against the antisemitism that is rampant now, as they would condemn all other forms of racism and hate on campus.

Jewish professors seem shocked at the actions of the little monsters they created. However, they were silent as conservatives and Christians were vilified, attacked, and had their speaking engagements canceled multiple times over the past few years. On those occasions, they simply gave a little lip service to supporting free speech with the caveat that of course there was an “orange man bad” exception to the First Amendment.

The line from Marxism to antisemitism Is a straight one.

As I said to someone earlier, I see many Leftists who appear to be just powering thru it all, I doubt this will have much effect.

Well, let’s face it ...they power through all kinds of evil every day through their ideology - abortion, infanticide, abuse of women, children, radical agendas of every kind — none of it seems to matter, as long as they are IN POWER.

He describes him as being: "a lefty, but fair and a reasonable man".

Ignoring the American Jews who are pro-Israel, there's not too many of them. But they do exist. I would call them liberals, rather than leftists.

If Biden had any BALLS he would call out this Jew hatred for what it is but he wont because these protestors, these vile jew hating bastards vote Democrat so Biden knows that if he says anything condemning them he could lose their vote in 2024..now if they were maga wearers the primetime address to the nation would have happened two weeks ago. Biden has ZERO issue calling anyone on the right an “Extremist” but he wont dare call anyone in his own party a Nazi extremist which is what these scum bags are

What stupid liberals ever thought this would be a good idea?

The moment the lefties watched those barbarians fly aircraft into the twin towers they knew they had found their soulmates.

They'll still vote for Joe Biden (I know Biden is pro-Israel but that's not the point) next year.

American Jews will still overwhelmingly vote Democrat..they already know their party is the party of Jew hatred but they would rather have that than ever vote Republican

If there is a Jewish state, then Shirley, Muslims should also be allowed to have a state somewhere

We have been minimizing Muslims for so long. I have always said it is disrespectful and dangerous and bit bigoted to say that a group of people don’t really think the way they have been telling us AND SHOWING US for decades.

The Holy Quran, true translations, anyway, have been telling those who read true translations for over a thousand years.

Westerners who have read the print versions of the Holy Quran sold in the USA in the last few decades believe Islam is a "religion of peace" because the translations have been radically changed to make it appear to be.

https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/16955

This is a link to a free book on Gutenberg.org, three translations by 3 Imams of the Holy Quran side by side.

Anyone who reads this will understand what is going on and what will be going on.

Yes, but the Rev.3: 9 Jews will be judged severely for trying to destroy the US.

“a lefty, but fair and a reasonable man”.

Incompatible terms.

I have a friend who is Jewish. Nice guy. Successful at what he does....a model citizen really. Yet he has all the majority political views most Jews have. I’ve been trying to tell him for years now that the increased antisemitism we are seeing is coming from the LEFT, not the Right. He’s convinced its the standard trope of Redneck KKKers out on the sticks somewhere who are the bigtime Jew haters who beat people up, paint swastika’s on walls etc.

Even when I pointed out that this stuff was happening in the heart of the Leftist establishment...the Ivy League and NYC....he thinks the problem is “the kids”. I try to point out that no, its their professors too, its the Squad in Congress too IT. IS. THE. LEFT which is so filled with hate for Jews. Because that’s been his “tribe” all his life, he just can’t accept it. I’m afraid most other Jews will continue to view it the same way he does. The vast majority still won’t wake up.

I used to subscribe $$$ to Hugh Hewitt’s podcast. Long, long before he moved East. In fact, I remember the day he announced the Hughniverse. Chemerinsky was on often, but so was Yoni Tidi, John Eastman, Mark Levin, etc. Rush Limbaugh even mentions Hewitt. And the Hillsdale Dialogues are still the best of the best. When Hewitt started having the Fake Fraud Fascist Fauci on OFTEN, and not challenging anything, I ceased any and all contact / $$$.

Chemerinsky appears to be intelligent, but is a stone cold leftist. He probably accepts most lies told about anyone he disagrees with.

Not me. There's more of them than Jews. Lots of targets for us to kill with abandon when TSHTF. Problem is, there isn't enough ammo to rid the Earth of the devils. Know Islam, no peace. No Islam, know peace.
