    Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 20 July 2025 | John Semmens
    With polls showing him favored to win the election in November, New York City socialist Democrat mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani vowed to "revolutionize the way this city will be governed. Half-measures will be swept aside and replaced with true equality for all." "For generations rent-control has produced huge housing inequities," he pointed out. "Those lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time were awarded windfall benefits. Those less fortunate have had to pay outrageous sums for inadequate living space. I will tear down this rotten system by abolishing private ownership of property. Right now the majority...

    The X account of Elmo, a Sesame Street hero, posted antisemitic content on Sunday night, calling to "kill the Jews." The content was quickly deleted. In its tweets, Elmo posted, "Kill all Jews." "Elmo says ALL JEWS SHOULD DIE. F-K JEWS. DONALD TRUMP IS NETANYAHU’S PUPPET BECAUSE HE IS IN THE EPSTEIN FILES. JEWS CONTROL THE WORLD AND NEED TO BE EXTERMINATED. “RELEASE THE FILES @realDonaldTrump CHILD F-KER.” Reports said that ten minutes prior to the antisemitic incitement, the hacker posted a photo of Elmo on the moon, wishing readers, "Happy crypto all-time high day, everybody!

  • James Carville warns Mamdani to keep ‘globalize the intifada’ phrase ‘out your mouth’

    Fox News via NY Post ^ | 7/10/25 | Alexander Hall,
    Veteran Democratic strategist James Carville blasted New York democratic socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s refusal to condemn the phrase “globalize the intifada,” which is associated with violence against Israel. Queens, New York State assemblyman Mamdani, a Ugandan-born Muslim with Indian heritage, won the race to become the Democratic Party’s nominee for New York City mayor, but Republicans and even some Democrats have blasted the democratic socialist as too extreme. Carville called Mamdani out during an appearance Tuesday on “The People’s Cabinet” podcast after host Daniel Koh mentioned the popularity of some of his economic ideas in New York City. While...

    Jewish Democrats in Congress are on edge after Zohran Mamdani’s party primary win in the race for New York City mayor — calling it a “huge problem” that he’s had an anti-Israel stance while antisemitism is on the rise. The Dems in the US House of Representatives — including former chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee Debbie Wasserman Schultz — are uneasy over Mamdani’s outward support for the anti-Israel BDS movement and his refusal to condemn the controversial “globalize the intifada” slogan. “To not be willing to condemn the term ‘globalize the intifada,’ it just demonstrates his callous disregard for...

    A new study argues that the large majority of American Jews have a deep-seated notion that being Jewish is inextricably bound to being liberal. That idea took hold after the large waves of Jewish immigration to the US in the late 19th century, according to the study’s author, American history professor Gil Troy. American Jewish liberalism and association with the Democratic party is showing no signs of abatement, despite many predictions to the contrary since Ronald Reagan’s presidency, according to Troy’s research, which is being published by the Ruderman Family Foundation's Program for American Jewish Studies at the University of...

    A Jewish advocacy group slammed Democratic socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani for posting a “sick” video mocking Hannukah and “cosplaying Jews.” The mayoral front-runner shared a video on his X account last year from the Geeta Brothers Duet Group, showing two men wearing wigs dancing behind a menorah, playing with dreidels and celebrating with Punjabi-style music. “Zohran Mamdani posts Indian men cosplaying Jews, spinning dreidels and lighting the menorah,” pro-Jewish group Stop Antisemitism wrote in a post to X Saturday, which included the controversial song. “Our holidays and traditions are sacred and not for your comedic pleasure _ZohranKMamdani — this...

    New York City’s favored son, a Muslim communist by the name of Zohran Mamdani, who is the city’s Democratic mayoral candidate, refused to condemn a term for killing Jews – “Globalize the Intifada” – three times during an interview on Meet the Press Sunday. Welker presses for an answer from Mamdani Host Kristen Welker should be given credit for asking the question numerous times during the sit-down, but Mamdani expertly deflected as politicians always do when they don’t want to honestly answer something. She noted to Mamdani that the phrase called for violence against the Jewish people, but he just...

    And what do we hear from most of our political leaders in Washington? Mealy-mouthed condemnations, tepid "both sides" platitudes, and cowardice dressed up as diplomacy. "The cavalry is not coming to save the Jews." We can either continue begging the same broken system to protect us, or we can take responsibility for our own survival.

    Actor Debra Messing wrote an Islamophobic comment on her Instagram in reference to New York City Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, claiming that he “celebrated” 9/11. “I have nothing against Socialism, don’t know where you got that,” Messing, who is known for her role in the sitcom “Will & Grace,” wrote in an Instagram comment replying to a user who called her out for sharing a reel denouncing socialism. “I voted against M because he celebrated 9/11. Let that sink in. I love my country. My reasoning is not Islamophobia. I’ve chosen to live in the most beautifully diverse city...

    Beating Cuomo in Democratic mayoral primary, ‘globalize the intifada’ advocate who’d arrest Netanyahu says he’ll work to ‘understand the perspectives’ of those he disagrees with NEW YORK — New York State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, after winning a stunning upset in the city’s Democratic party mayoral primary on Tuesday night, vowed to adhere to his views on foreign affairs, while grappling with other perspectives.

  • What Will Become of the Jews of Iran? Part One

    Jewish Journal ^ | Jan 2024 | Tabby Refael
    Many scholars believe that Jews are Iran’s oldest religious minority, having lived there nearly 2,700 years (if you count the first 100 years of Jewish captivity in Babylon, after the fall of the First Temple). Jews lived in Iran, which until 1935 was known as Persia, for over 1,000 years before the arrival of Islam. The land — its language, culture, prose and history — is ingrained in us, whether we still live in Iran or escaped in the last four decades and resettled in countries such as the United States, Israel, Canada or Italy. Before the 1979 Islamic Revolution...

    As a dual American and an Israeli, July 4 has always had a dual special meaning. That is, since 1976, America’s bicentennial. Like many American children, the year leading up to and during the bicentennial was a period of sharing national pride in all that America stood for, and its history. Growing up in a town with a famous revolutionary war battlefield, the reenactment of that battle made things extra vivid. As an Israeli, it is remarkable to me that after 200 years, the U.S. was able to celebrate its independence by reenacting the war in which it fought to...

    Preston Damsky is a law student at the University of Florida. He is also a white nationalist and antisemite. Last fall, he took a seminar taught by a federal judge on “originalism,” the legal theory favored by many conservatives that seeks to interpret the Constitution based on its meaning when it was adopted. In his capstone paper for the class, Mr. Damsky argued that the framers had intended for the phrase “We the People,” in the Constitution’s preamble, to refer exclusively to white people. From there, he argued for the removal of voting rights protections for nonwhites, and for the...

    Australia: Jewish association issues travel warning over visa cancellations The Australian Jewish Association (AJA) has issued an unusual travel warning aimed at Jews worldwide, following reports of sudden visa cancellations for Jews seeking to enter Australia. According to the association, this represents a concerning trend of "growing hostility toward the Jewish community and Israel" with implications for visitors and international relations. "Even senior figures are not immune," the warning stated. The association urges Jews worldwide to exercise caution when considering travel to Australia during this period and to reconsider their plans. (Itamar Eichner)

    Although Jews comprised a small part of the population of colonial America, the country’s Founding Fathers realized the importance of freedom of worship for even this small minority. George Washington’s 1790 letter to the Touro Synagogue in Rhode Island affirms the American commitment that bigotry would have no place in the US and that Jews would not be a tolerated minority but would “possess alike liberty of conscience and immunities of citizenship.” That commitment has withstood the test of time. While American Jews have always admired the nation’s Founding Fathers for their genius and vision, they tend to ignore that...

Arab feelings in 1936.1936 was not a good year for democracy. The Fascist countries were seen as successful by many people. Every step taken by Hitler or Mussolini met with hesitation and trepidation on the part of the leaders of the free world. Hitler armed Germany, contraven-ing the Treaty of Versailles.

    Hitler Wanted World Jewry Exterminated. LONDON, (.JTA).—An international agreement for the extermination of all Jews was the main provision of the peace treaty Hitler intended to dictate to the vanquished Allies, according to a Finnish physician, Dr. Felix Kersten, former medical advisor to Gestapo chief Heinrich Himmler. Quoting a statement by Himimler made to him in Zhitomir, in August 1942 Dr. kersten declares in an article in the Sunday Express that “a peace conference was to be held at Nuremberg with the participation of all neutral countries. A 'New Order' Europe would be proclaimed by Hitler at the Conference, the...

    When Donald Trump entered his second term as president, he found a full-throated supporter in South Africa’s chief rabbi. Chief Rabbi Warren Goldstein said in February that South Africans “should welcome the Trump administration’s interventions” in the country’s affairs, praising the president in a widely distributed video message. A vocal critic of the South African government, Goldstein backed Trump’s opposition to South Africa for its cooperation with Iran and its new land expropriation law, which Goldstein believes will slow the country’s already sluggish economy. But since Trump decided to admit some white South Africans into the United States as refugees...
