'Jews try to assassinate Trump!' Antisemitic theories and calls for violence surge
Jerusalem Post ^ | 7/14/2024

The assassination attempt on former US President Donald Trump during a campaign rally in Butler, PA, led to a surge in antisemitic conspiracy theories and calls for violent retaliation, according to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL).

On July 13, 2024, former President Donald Trump was wounded in an assassination attempt during a campaign rally in Butler, PA. The attack, which resulted in one death and three injuries, including Trump himself, ignited a flurry of antisemitic conspiracy theories and calls for violent retaliation online, according to the ADL blog.

Thomas Matthew Crooks, a 20-year-old from Bethel Park, PA, was identified as the shooter. Federal law enforcement treated the incident as an assassination attempt, though Crooks' motives remained unclear, the ADL reported.

In the wake of the shooting, antisemitic conspiracy theories quickly surfaced. According to the ADL, Jon Minadeo, founder of the Goyim Defense League, hosted a session on X, formerly Twitter, titled “Jews try to assassinate Trump!” Similarly, conspiracy theorist Stew Peters baselessly suggested that Mossad, the Israeli intelligence agency, was involved in the attack.

Prominent figures in white supremacist circles also propagated these theories. Nick Fuentes, a well-known white supremacist, claimed that Israeli intelligence attacked to replace Trump with a candidate more favorable to Israeli interests, the ADL noted.

Oh because Benjamin Guggenheim, Isidor Straus, and Jacob Astor were killed and they were against the establishment of the federal reserve?

Freepers used to freep stuff like this. Well? Occam’s razor folks. The simplest explanation will give you the answer. Pattern recognition is hour friend. There are two kinds of jews. Jesus told is one of them is part of the Synagogue of Satan. Stop defending these degenerates. You look foolish. Call upon the Holy Spirit to give you discernment.

Did you check his privates?

“ resident Putin creeps were blaming neocons immediately, their term for Jews.”
**********************************************

You are absolutely full of crap. There are an army of Neocons who are NOT JEWS. Get off the ‘RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA’ BS occasionally.

Pure fiction from ADL. I read a variety of sources and none have contained a post of any note even associating Israel, Judaism, Jews generally, or even any specific Jew with this event.

Could there have been something so minute that it fell off the feed before being seen? Maybe, but if so those are the types posted by lefties, neverTrumpers, and overt glowies specifically to give other leftist sources a Jessie Smollett moment.

Well, among other happenings associated with this assassination attempt, it’s drawn out a bunch of propagandists into the open that usually do a better/nuanced job of gaslighting people.

Crooks is wearing a yarmulke, so he is very likely Jewish. That much is true. This may thrill the anti-Semitic school agitators.

Certain freaks use neocon as euphemism for Jews.

The first neoconservatives were Jewish associated with Commentary magazine going way back.
