Racism In The Old and Antisemitism In The Youth

Posted on February 20, 2024 by First.One.Through

There used to be jokes about how to handle one’s racist uncle during the holidays. Now the question is how to deal with a person’s antisemitic niece.

While many older cisgender White men continue to be challenged by the changing nature of America, a large percentage of women aged 18-34 (and under 24 in particular) have a hatred for Jews that would make Nazis blush.

The results from the December Harvard/Harris poll about views of Israel and Hamas segmented by age were shocking. While well over 90% of people over 55 viewed the October 7, 2023 Hamas invasion and slaughter in Israel as an act of terrorism, only slightly more than 70% of the 18-34 cohort believed the killing of 1,200 people to be terrorism. An estimated 90% of people over 55 thought there was no justification for the Hamas attack, but 60% of people 18-24 thought the massacre was justified.

Young people are evenly split on supporting Hamas and Israel, while almost every older person supports Israel. After the October 7 attack, 76% of 18-24 year-olds thought Hamas is a rational actor with whom Israel can negotiate while 87% of those over 65 believe Hamas is dedicated to the destruction of Israel. Consequently, 84% of seniors oppose a ceasefire now that would leave Hamas in place while 67% of the youth think a ceasefire should happen immediately and leave Hamas intact.

In the aftermath of the worst murder of Jews since the Holocaust, a majority of 51% of 18-24 year-olds think Israel should be dissolved and handed to Hamas and the Palestinians. Only 4% of those over 65 hold such views, with 71% preferring two states and 25% supporting Palestinians moving into neighboring Arab countries.

Lastly, the poll touched on gender-related violence. Two-thirds of seniors believe that human rights groups did not adequately condemn the rape of Israeli women, while 80% of those 18-24 thought that women’s rights organizations condemned Hamas sufficiently.

These findings confirm a January 2023 ADL poll which found “Young adults have more anti-Israel sentiment than older generations.”

The age divide is much the same regarding antisemitism in the United States.

An estimated 90% of people over 65 years old think that Jews face harassment on college campuses which drops to about two-thirds for 18-34 year-olds. Much of that disparity seems to do with whether words constitute harassment, as 92% of people over 65 think that calling for the genocide of Jews should be against university rules, while 53% of people 18-24 think students should be free to call for the genocide of Jews.

In addition to penalizing particular speech, one of the drivers seems to be driven by ideology. Roughly 81% of people over 65 oppose the notion that people should be viewed through the lens of White oppressors and non-White oppressed classes of people, while 79% of 18-24 year-olds support the ideology. Among those over 65, 91% believe that Jews should not fall into the White oppressor class while 67% of 18-24 year-olds believe Jews should be in the oppressor class.

What has driven the enormous disparity of opinions in which young people side with terrorists who slaughter Jews? What drives so many 18 to 24 year-olds to be so anti-Semitic and anti-Zionist?

A few ideas to review including a post-9/11 world, indoctrination in schools, race, social media and human rights groups.

Post-9/11 World

Americans who were adults in 2000 and 2001 can easily remember the terrorist attacks of 9/11 and the continued heinous killing of Israeli Jews by Palestinian Arabs from 2000 to 2004. The clarity about the jihadi extremists perpetrating the disgusting murders was apparent to all, so the support for the United States and Israel responding to the attacks was wide and deep.

For young people who do not remember the attacks but only the consequences – America’s 20-year long war in Afghanistan and Iraq, and the Israeli Security Barrier which was put up to stop the flow of Palestinian Arab terrorists – the cause-and-effect is now inverted. Rather than see the Security Barrier as the effective reaction to jihadi terrorism, it is viewed as an obstacle to coexistence. Rather than appreciate the lack of mass casualty attacks in the U.S. over the past two decades, young people question why America fought wars abroad for so long.

Young people have come to believe that western powers are “imperialist” and wage wars to subjugate others. They have internalize the Iranian narrative of the US and Israel being “big Satan” and “Little Satan”, respectively, aggressively fighting Muslims and people of color for no reason.

University Indoctrination

The Iranian narrative took root in February 2001 as Muslim nations sought to reintroduce the “Zionism is racism” mantra back to the world at the 2001 Durban Conference. Together with Qatar, the UAE and Saudi Arabia, the Muslim countries took over the funding of American universities with billions of dollars to hire Islamist teachers and admit tens of thousands of Middle Eastern Muslim students. The universities’ direction changed and new anti-Zionist hate groups like Students For Justice in Palestine sprang up in hundreds of campuses.

When the 2014 Gaza War concluded around the same time as the killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, MO, the SJP chapters started to align themselves with the Black community in an effort of allyship. It created narratives of “Gaza to Detroit” and “Ferguson to Palestine” as if the two have anything remotely in common.

Muslims claimed it did – and latched onto the oppressor/oppressed narrative which has now become university doctrine over the past decade. Teacher union bosses pushed the notion into lower schools as well, that Jews should be seen as part of the elite “ownership class” who try to keep others down.

Coupled with this incorrect portrayal of American Jews as powerful is the mischaracterization of Israel as a European colonial project. In university departments focused on decolonization, Israel is being cast as a racist state which must be dismantled. There is no subtle debate about Israel/Palestine for young people; they have been taught that Jews are not indigenous to Israel and “stole” Palestinian land.

As toxic ideologies like this inevitably metastasize, the calls to actively be “anti-racist” compelled students to become vocal anti-Zionists. Elective courses on “anti-racism” in California universities soon became mandatory in high schools, infecting the minds of tens of thousands.

While older Americans were spared this indoctrination, many Americans under 30 have been schooled in antisemitism and anti-Zionism.

UN and Human Rights Groups Slander

Universities celebrated when Amnesty International published a report in February 2022 calling Israel an “apartheid” state. It gave credibility to anti-Zionists who had long defamed Israel at will – like The New York Times – using a third party’s definition rather than state personal bias.

The Obama Administration’s last middle finger to Israel as it departed was allowing United Nations Security Council Resolution 2334 to pass which made it illegal for Jews to live east of the 1949 Armistice Lines with Jordan, including in Judaism’s holiest location of the Old City of Jerusalem. While older people may recall that Jews have been a majority of Jerusalem since the 1860s, younger people have grown up where Jews living in Jerusalem is an act of evil colonization.

Racial Overview of Youth

Today’s youth is much more multi-ethnic than older generations.

America’s youth has many more non-White people while older Americans are mostly White. According to Pew Research, the most common age for Whites was 58 in 2019, and a much younger 29 for Asians, 27 for Blacks and 11 for Hispanics.

Among 70 year-olds, there are about 2.5 million White people but not even 1 million non-White people. However, among 20 year-olds, there are roughly 2.3 million White people and only slightly fewer, 2.1 million non-Whites, roughly an even split.

In U.S., most common age for whites is much older than for minorities

The multi-ethnic youth have come to see their White Jewish peers as part of the “White oppressor” class. They incorrectly assume that Israeli Jews are mostly White, like Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In fact, White Ashkenazi Jews make up only one-third of the Israeli population.

Race In Colleges

The race of college students varies by the type of school. Overall, 42.3% of students are White, 17.4% Hispanic, 10.6% Black, 5.8% Asian according to the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center. The figures change dramatically when considering the type of school and degree.

At private, nonprofit four-year universities, 47% of students were white and 33% of students were Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC). A similar mix was found at public four-year schools where 46% of students were white, 38% were BIPOC. Shorter associate degrees attracted more minorities, with private two-year schools, 38% of students were white, 44% were BIPOC and public two-year schools, 29% of students were white, 42% were BIPOC.

More people are opting to not attend colleges, viewing them as expensive and not worth the time or investment. White enrollment declined the most from 2018 to 2022, dropping by 17.4%, while Black and Hispanic enrollment declined by 13.6% and 3.6%, respectively. Men are skipping universities in greater numbers than women, with women now accounting for 8.3 million students compared to 6.1 million men.

Despite women and minorities making up a greater share of college students, the professors are still mostly white, with White men making up 39% of all faculty and White women, 35%.

While White people make up a plurality of four-year degree programs, the schools have made very direct actions to change their faculty and curricula. They have implemented DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) programs, which are getting a lot of attention after the resignation of Harvard’s Black female president who failed to clearly condemn antisemitism at a congressional hearing.

Universities are not simply deploying indoctrinating students in a new socialist ideology compared to past generations; they are preaching to a more muti-ethnic population who are embracing the theology.

Social Media

The socialist antisemitic educational system deserves part of the blame but social media has fostered the toxicity as well.

While smartphones came to the world in 2008, the social media phenomenon on phones really took off from 2010 to 2015. Young people began to rely on news from influencers they followed (think sports stars, models, entertainers) rather than on professional news outlets. Young people fled to these idiots who offered opinions rather than facts, on platforms that pushed engagement via extremism rather than nuanced debate.

People like Kanye West, Kyrie Irving and Bella Hadid have many more people reading their drivel than CNN or the Wall Street Journal, especially young people. The youth get to enjoy the thrill of interacting with their stars rather than sit passively taking in boring news. Instagram became the simplest (fewest words) and most popular social media platform for young people while older Americans barely touched it.

And here also, race plays a part.

According to a May 2020 PRRI report, “young adults (ages 18-29) are notably more likely to use social media frequently than other age groups. Nearly half of young Americans (47%) report using social media sources frequently, compared to one in four (25%) Americans ages 30-49, about one in ten (11%) Americans ages 50-64, and only 3% of senior Americans (ages 65 and older).” It added that “Hispanic Americans (30%) are substantially more likely than white Americans (19%) and black Americans (19%) to be frequent social media user.”

According to Statista, Blacks are as likely as Hispanics to be active on social media, both much more than Whites. Daily use of social media is 46% for Blacks, 44% for Hispanics and only 34% for Whites. The gap in never-users shows the same contrast with only 18% of both Blacks and Hispanics never using social media and 30% of Whites never using it. So while 2.5 times as many Blacks and Hispanics use social media daily compared to never users, the numbers are almost the same for Whites.

So while over 70% of older Americans are White and not active on social media (and more inclined to use Facebook), the younger generation is almost 50/50 White/non-White and active on Instagram.

The Chinese company Tik Tok has a similar pattern. Roughly half of viewers are under 29 years old and 57% of all viewers are female. Almost no one over 55 uses the platform. Further, 80% of the content is made by people under 24 years old.

While the United States has the most viewers, it is followed immediately by Indonesia, Brazil and Russia. Almost all of the countries where the platform has the highest penetration are Muslim countries, including Saudi Arabia, UAE and Kuwait, followed by Thailand, Qatar and Malaysia.

Antisemitism in Young People / Non-Whites

Aggregating this information leads to a real divide among older and younger Americans. Those 65 and over tend to be White, remember 9/11 and the Second Intifada, get their news from newspapers made in western countries and went to work believing in meritocracy. That’s in sharp contrast to Americans 18-24 who are are as likely to be non-White as White; have no recollection of 9/11, just the War on Terror; get their news from social media stars and very young people alongside the Muslim world and Russia; and receive an education that meritocracy is a myth and that they live under the thumb of a White patriarchy which imposes its imperialist whims on the Global South from where many of the youths’ ancestors originated.

Young people don’t comprehend that Jews were active in the 1960s Civil Rights movement and view Jews as part of the White elite. They don’t believe the FBI Hate Crime reports that Jews are the most targeted group of hate crimes, and they hold antisemitic views that Jews and Zionists are deeply racist who only care about money, power and themselves.

Older Americans are relatively homogenous and see a disappointing new generation which hates America and its ally Israel. They watch young people loudly cheering the mass slaughter of Jews in Israel, and call the young socialists and jihadists out as antisemites. For their part, the young see the older generation as impossibly out-of-touch White racists, unwilling to let the multi-ethnic future take the reigns of power.

Jews know math and their impossibly small numbers, and turn to the government and cling to law enforcement to protect them from the percolating tidal wave of hate.

The UN Has Joined The Jihadi Fray

The UN on Hamas

After the heinous butchering, raping and slaughtering of 1,200 people in Israel, the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres did not call for Hamas to be brought to justice nor did he lambast Muslim extremism. Instead, he called for Israel to use “maximum restraint” against the killers. It seemed bizarre to excuse mass terrorism but the rationale soon became clear.

Just last week, UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator Martin Griffiths was more explicit about excusing Hamas’s atrocities and said “Hamas is not a terrorist group for us, of course, as you know. It’s a political movement.”

The UN is correct at some level: Hamas is a popular Palestinian political party which was elected to 58% of the Palestinian parliament in 2006. It has had complete rule over Gaza since 2007. So it is indeed a political group. It is also a terrorist group and a deeply antisemitic group, but the UN refuses to acknowledge those two plain facts.

That is because the United Nations has long tried to distance the idea of “terrorism” and “Islamic extremism,” which are both at the heart of Hamas’s evil ideology.

On March 17, 2016, the then-United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki Moon addressed the UN Human Rights Council about a “Plan of Action to Prevent Violent Extremism.” At the event, the then-UN Deputy High Commissioner for Human Rights Kate Gilmore said that “selective application of the term “violent extremism” only to Muslim believers reinforces intolerance and discrimination.”

*UN Secretary General visits Gaza in 2010, even though the region was not a UN member state, and it was ruled by Hamas, a terrorist Group (Photo: Reuters)*

At least in regards to Islamic extremists. The media and United Nations talk about “Israeli settler extremism” and “right-wing Israeli government,” all of the time but whitewash the brutal attacks committed by Islamic fanatics.

US Politicians And NGOs

Aggravating this horrible situation, people attempt to smear people discussing terrorism and vicious antisemitism of jihadi radicals, as “Islamophobes.” Rep. Ilhan Omar made several comments which were widely viewed as antisemitic in her first weeks in office and then inverted the perpetrator-and-victim saying, “what I am fearful of is that because [Rep.] Rashida [Tlaib] and I are Muslim, that a lot of Jewish colleagues, a lot of our Jewish constituents, a lot of our allies, go to thinking that everything we say about Israel, to be anti-Semitic, because we are Muslim.”

Years later in 2024, when Congress passed a resolution condemning Hamas’s mass raping and mutilation of Jewish women, Rep. Tlaib refused to join civilized society and simply voted ‘present.’ The sadism of the emasculated Palestinian men was absolved by a sitting elected American official.

Tlaib’s sponsors like the DSA say much the same. The Democratic Socialists of America said that every Israeli Jew is fair game for annihilation by “resistance groups” in the months before the October 7 massacre. CAIR’s Zahara Billoo clearly called all Jews are the “enemy.” The “Mapping Project” in Massachusetts created by proponents of boycotting Israel, tried to make the targeting of Jews easy by providing names and addresses of Jewish organizations.

The Arts and Media

The art world found its muse in Palestinian jihadists.

John Adams composed an opera called “The Death of Klinghoffer,” with arias about Palestinian terrorists who killed an elderly wheelchair-bound American Jew and threw him off a ship. The New York Times said the Metropolitan Opera’s general manager, Peter Gelb, said that the composer “John Adams said that in composing ‘The Death of Klinghoffer’ he tried to understand the hijackers and their motivations, and to look for humanity in the terrorists.” The Times went on to call the opera a “masterpiece.”

The media world’s empathy and shield for non-Palestinian jihadists extends to those who murder Jews around the world.

In 2008, ten Pakistani men from the Lashkar-e-Tayyiba terrorist group entered Mumbai, India and started slaughtering people. After killing dozens of people at a train station and luxury hotel, the terrorists descended on a small Jewish community center run by a Chabad rabbi. The terrorists killed the rabbi and his pregnant wife along with others at the facility. At no point in the storyline did CNN convey that the Pakistani men were Muslim and that they belonged to a radical jihadi group.

In 2015, four radical Muslim men killed people at the publishing offices of the magazine Charlie Hebdo in Paris, France, and then entered a kosher supermarket to kill more Jews. While CNN mentioned that the terrorists were upset at Charlie Hebdo for printing a picture of the Islamic prophet Mohammed, it never wrote that the killers were jihadi extremists.

The problem is not limited to The New York Times and CNN. Reuters avoids calling Hamas a terrorist group in its articles while comfortably doing so for other terrorist organizations.

The jihadists and socialists have already entered the final phase of their war against the Jews. The Four Step Battle Plan started with 1) Denying the Enemy Rights and Legitimacy; 2) Gathering Masses to the Cause; 3) Removing the Enemy’s Defenses; and 4) Assembling the Armies for the Battle. They are now bringing the world into phase 2 at the International Court of Justice, to advance quickly to phase 3, to abandon the Jewish State and global Jewry.

When the United Nations says aloud what radical socialists and jihadists have argued for years, that Hamas is not an antisemitic jihadi terrorist group but a legitimate political actor, it is time to ring the alarm bells. Global “legitimate” actors are now backing Hamas and its supporters who attack Jews around the world, smearing Jews as supporters of an apartheid, colonizing Zionist regime, consequently not victims but fair targets for assault.

Jamaal Bowman And Hamas

Posted on February 15, 2024 by First.One.Through

Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY16) has long had an antisemitism problem, flagged by groups like the Anti-Defamation League. He’s made the Jews in his district feel unsafe by calling Republicans “Nazis” and voting against a resolution condemning antisemitism. He would not even come to a rally in Scarsdale after Jewish stores were vandalized.

His anti-Israel stances like boycotting the speech of dovish Israeli President Isaac Herzog have gradually become more personal and militant, as he saddles up to jihadists in his quest for more money and power.

Bowman launched his reelection campaign with one of the leaders of the anti-Israel group WESPAC as a featured speaker. WESPAC supports a number of anti-Israel extremist groups, which defended Hamas’s October 7 brutal slaughter in Israel.

A few nights earlier, Bowman praised another anti-Zionist, Norman Finkelstein, who said that Israel has no right to respond to Hamas atrocities.

Shortly thereafter, Bowman reportedly went to Los Angeles, CA, to take in boatloads of cash from supporters of the October 7 barbarity.

His constituents and his Democratic primary challenger were outraged.

“Let me set the record straight – my opponent takes money from those who endorse Hamas’ terrorism, those who try to justify the murdering of children, the kidnapping of civilian hostages, and the raping of women as acts of ‘resistance,’” Westchester County Executive George Latimer said in a prepared statement. “As a progressive Democrat, I find that horrifying and unacceptable.”

Rather than clearly denounce Hamas and the terrorist groups’ supporters, Bowman’s latest antic is to possibly sue his Democratic primary opponent for slander. He turned the entire episode on its head by claiming that Latimer stoked Islamophobia, saying, “His [Latimer] comments equating all Muslims to Hamas are textbook Islamophobic and put the Muslim-American community in real danger. He should not only retract this false statement he’s repeatedly made. He should apologize to a community he continues to vilify and endanger.”

Of course, it was Bowman who equated the two, as Latimer clearly specified the particular people who supported Hamas and its actions, and never mentioned their faith nor attacked the entire community.

Bowman takes the endorsements and the money of Hamas’s supporters, then plays the victim, and misquotes and attacks others. It’s classic Bowman theater, putting Jewish lives at risk in an appeal to anti-Israel donors.

And he relentlessly continues to wage this real and psychological war on his Jewish constituents.

Rep. Lois Frankel (D-FL), a 75-year old Jewish grandmother, put forward a bipartisan resolution condemning the rape and mutilation of Jewish women by Hamas on October 7. It gathered 200 cosponsors. But not Bowman. Not Rep. Rashida Tlaib. Not Rep. Ilhan Omar nor Cori Bush.

The race in the district is boiling down to anti-Israel voters versus anti-Hamas voters. People supporting George Latimer believe that Hamas must be neutered, whether by force or the leaders surrendering, to afford a chance for peace. People supporting Jamaal Bowman believe that Hamas speaks for the Palestinian people, and the Palestinian butchery of Israeli civilians was justified in the past and would be appropriate in the future, as the group has promised.

While Jamaal Bowman sharply criticizes White Supremacy, he is going all-in on with those who celebrate jihadists massacring Jews. It’s part of the insidious jihad taking over wide swaths of America, and it should alarm every American, not just those in New York’s lower Westchester County.

UNRWA Is Hamas’s Iron Dome

Posted on February 11, 2024 by First.One.Through

‘Shield’ is an English word which is both a noun and a verb. As a verb, it means to protect something, and as a noun, it means an emblem that represents an organization.

UNRWA, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine refugees, acts and is Hamas’s shield.

In attempting to root out the Hamas political-terrorist group from Gaza which committed savage butchery of Israelis on October 7 in line with its antisemitic genocidal charter, Israeli troops entered and dug around UNRWA schools, hospitals and administrative buildings. It found incontrovertible proof that UNRWA is part of the Hamas war machine against Israel.

Hamas not only stores weapons in UNRWA locations, it deliberately locates its command centers under UNRWA facilities to keep the IDF from bombing it. While Israel developed an iron dome defense system which uses technology to shoot down Hamas rockets targeting Israeli civilians, Hamas uses UNRWA to protect its military infrastructure in Gaza.

In New York City, where the thin veneer of UNRWA’s 100 or so Europeans cover the fact that the rest of UNRWA’s 30,000-member staff are local Palestinian Arabs, the well-dressed leaders of the “humanitarian” agency defend Hamas to its voluntary donor countries. UNRWA talking heads appeal to countries assembled at the once-respected UN halls and attempt to deflect attention from UNRWA’s complicity and participation in the sickening and sadistic attacks on innocent Jewish civilians.

The dozen-plus member of Hamas that participated in the cruelty were dismissed as a few rogue employees. The 3,000 Hamas teachers that celebrated the massacre on Telegram were ignored. Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur on occupied Palestinian territories, said (5:35) in the immediate aftermath of October 7 that “you Palestinians are always questioned, second-guessed, misinterpreted and defamed.”

Finally, many countries are looking at the plain evidence and can no longer turn away from UNRWA’s ongoing flimsy protection of vicious murderers. The UNRWA misdirection campaign which attempted to tug heart-strings is unraveling, and moral countries have begun to halt their donations to the agency which is complicit in the ongoing genocidal actions against a member state.

Unbowed, UNRWA continues to appeal directly to individuals donors on social media, hoping that they don’t read the news or despise Jews and the Jewish State to fund the UNRWA-Hamas front.

UNRWA campaign on Facebook, February 2024

UNRWA is not simply trying to defend itself against the mounting evidence of working hand-in-glove with Hamas to keep the money flowing to 30,000 Palestinian employees of the organization as well as to keep the lights on in hospitals and schools. As the world sees that UNRWA is not a neutral party, the agency loses all aspects of immunity. Its locations can be raided and bombed and its officers charged alongside Hamas with crimes against humanity.

The entire United Nations knows its on a sinking ship and is throwing the heaviest burdens overboard (firing the dozen October 7 murderers) and is spinning wild and unbelievable narratives. UNRWA is in a fight for its survival and will not pause in lying boldly and repeatedly that it is a humanitarian group that at worst is woefully ignorant and inept.

UNRWA acts as a shield FOR Hamas in Gaza, and a shield OF Hamas at the United Nations. The end of Hamas in Gaza must be coupled with the end of UNRWA at the UN.

Sue The United Nations For Supporting Terrorism

Posted on February 7, 2024 by First.One.Through

Courts in the United States just convicted a mother of a mass murderer for not doing enough to prevent the attack which killed four people. A Michigan jury found that Jennifer Crumbley was guilt of involuntary manslaughter because she failed to act upon clear warning signs that her son Ethan was dangerous and did not lock up the weapon in the house.

It begs the question as to whether the United Nations should be held criminally liable for crimes against humanity for its complicity in the October 7 massacre of 1,200 people in Israel.

The United Nations building in New York City

The U.N. adopted Palestinian “refugees” as its perennial wards decades ago, setting up distinct agencies for them such as UNRWA, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees. Originally designed as a temporary agency in the middle of the Arab-Israeli War of 1948-9, the U.N. has continued to extend its mandate and mission, extending loans for businesses and folding in another 763,000 people over-and-above the descendants of refugees.

UNRWA schools teach young Palestinian Arabs to hate Jews, and that the Jews stole their land. They instill a belief that the UN will help them win back their homes that Jews stole. The “textbooks have remained openly antisemitic and continue to encourage violence, jihad and martyrdom while peace is not taught as preferable or even possible.”

UNRWA teachers have built bombs for Hamas. At least a dozen participated in the October 7 massacre and thousands more are members of the political-terrorist group Hamas. An estimated 3,000 UNRWA workers praised the massacre.

It is not surprising that they allow Hamas’s terror tunnels to be built under their schools and hospitals and permit Hamas to fire rockets from their campuses.

UNRWA works hand-in-glove with Hamas in Gaza and the United Nations did nothing to act upon the clear warning signs that Hamas had built an enormous terrorist infrastructure over sixteen years of rule.

And why should it? UNRWA is Palestinian. Almost every single employee is a Palestinian Arab other than the people in New York who serve as a front to funnel billions of dollars to Palestinians.

While the U.N. did not burn families alive, rape and mutilate women, nor shoot the elderly in the head, it was completely complicit in the atrocities. It is therefore not sufficient to simply shut down UNRWA; the world should defund the United Nations until it does so, and bring its leadership to court for its role in the worst slaughter of Jews since the Holocaust.

Hamas Immigration Act, For Aliens In The United States

Posted on February 2, 2024 by First.One.Through

The United States House of Representatives overwhelmingly approved H.R. 6679 called the “No Immigration Benefits for Hamas Terrorists Act” on January 31, 2024. There were only two people who voted no, members of the alt-left Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI).

The resolution amended a law about “inadmissible aliens” to add members of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad to the already sanctioned Palestinian Liberation Organization. It also specifically called out people surrounding the sadistic October 7 massacre in Israel:

“Any alien who carried out, participated in, planned, financed, afforded material support to, or otherwise facilitated any of the attacks against Israel initiated by Hamas beginning on October 7, 2023, is inadmissible.” There are six actions flagged related to the October 7 attacks:

carried out
participated in

The first two activities required people to have been at the scene of the savagery. It includes an estimated 3,000 Palestinian Arabs including members of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad, ordinary Palestinian Arabs, members of UNRWA and journalists.

The other four actions cited include people from around the world, including the United States. People who sent money to Hamas such as government officials in Turkey and Qatar would be banned from America. Those in the United Nations who facilitated Hamas’s storing of weapons and building tunnels underneath the schools and hospitals would be barred. Those “humanitarian” agencies from Norway and Sweden which worked in Gaza and looked the other way or simply winked as Hamas established its terrorist infrastructure would have entry to the USA forbidden.

And in the United States, it would likely include many people, including university professors and college activists who are not U.S. citizens.

The resolution is not only about the hours of the October 7 massacre, but “any of the attacks”… “beginning on October 7,” which include the ongoing psychological, political and physical war Hamas and its allies are waging against Zionists everywhere.

Groups like Students for Justice in Palestine on university campuses are providing “material support to” Hamas and its genocidal aims of ridding Zionists everywhere. Non-American social media influencers and protesters who call for the eradication of the Jewish State “by any means necessary” could be deported.

Questions remain as to how the law, if passed by the Senate, would be enforced. Would a non-American citizen calling for an immediate ceasefire to protect Hamas be sufficient grounds for deportation? What about ripping down posters of Jewish hostages to help people remember the ongoing Hamas atrocities? Or those entering congressional hearings shouting support for Hamas and denouncing Israel?

Hamas’s war is definitely ongoing. The question as to what constitutes “material support” for the Palestinian war against Jews and the Jewish State will be determined by the courts as situations arise.

The physical war against Israel is being fought there by Hamas and PIJ, while around the world, many aliens are providing the terrorist groups material support and are attempting to deny Zionists basic freedoms. American politicians have taken notice and have put non-citizens on notice.

Stop Genocide. End UNRWA

Posted on January 29, 2024 by First.One.Through

Israel accused the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) of having many staff members involved in the October 7 Palestinian genocidal attack against Israel. In response, the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres asked UNRWA to investigate itself, and find out the veracity of the charges and to fire those who committed atrocities.

Several western countries, who make up the majority of the funding of the UN agency, suspended their contributions. They include the United States, U.K., Finland, Australia, Canada, Italy, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Japan, Iceland and Estonia. So far.

This is not a surprise. UNRWA is staffed almost exclusively by Palestinian Arabs; only the thin veneer of the executive management is European.

UNRWA has long been known and accused of teaching students to kill Jews and destroy Israel. Many staff members have been bomb makers for Hamas. Tunnel shafts at UNRWA schools lead down to Hamas’s terrorist tunnels.

In February 2023, the U.S. House of Representatives put forward H.R. 1102 “The UNRWA Accountability Act” which called for withholding funds to the UN Palestinian group if “UNRWA staff and partners nor its funding and facilities are affiliated with terrorism or disseminating certain rhetoric, such as calling for the destruction of Israel or describing Israelis as occupiers or settlers.” The U.S. Senate had a similar bill, S.431.

For much of 2023, Israel had been rooting out terrorists from UNRWA schools in the West Bank, Jenin in particular. UNRWA’s West Bank terrorists committed and planned to commit several attacks against Jews. Those terrorists were not only from Hamas which carried out the October 7 massacre, but the Jenin Brigades and Lion’s Den, other very popular terrorist groups.

Guterres has asked donor countries to renew payments to the agency, arguing that a few bad apples shouldn’t mean that millions of Palestinian Arabs should suffer.

But he completely misses the point.

UNRWA is the leading CAUSE of the October 7 attacks. Its mission of funneling billions of dollars into Gaza and the West Bank to employ Palestinian Arabs and miseducate them that Israel is an illegal European colonial state and that millions of descendants of Arabs who left Israel in 1948 have an “inalienable right” to move into the Jewish State is the main reason that the conflict has dragged on for decades. UNRWA in Gaza and the West Bank must be dismantled and the agency’s operations in Lebanon, Syria and Jordan should be folded into the other agency to handle refugees, UNHDR.

The United States has taken the first steps in UNRWA Accountability. It must lead to the termination of the toxic agency to forge a pathway towards coexistence.

Hamas Joins The Pantheon Of Antisemitic Evil Alongside Nazis, ISIS And Amalek

Posted on January 26, 2024 by First.One.Through

Hamas, the U.S.-designated terrorist group has been called many things since its barbaric massacre on October 7. Due to the grotesque nature of the mass rape, slaughter and mutilation of people, people quickly thought of Nazis, as the killing of 1,200 Jews on a single day was the worst massacre since the Holocaust and committed with an intent to humiliate and torture Jews.

U.S. President Joe Biden said that “The brutality of Hamas — this bloodthirstiness — brings to mind the worst — the worst rampages of ISIS,” and many government officials agreed. The radical jihadi group burned its enemies alive and broadcast it for the world to see as a recruiting tool, similar to the torching of Jewish families alive by Hamas fighters which they similarly broadcast.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu compared Hamas to Amalek, the biblical foe that sought out the weakest members of the Children of the Exodus for attack and slaughter, much as Hamas raped women and butchered children. Lawyers from South Africa have incorrectly argued at the International Court of Justice that Netanyahu’s comparison showed that Israel has genocidal intent to kill every man, woman and child in Gaza. The biblical passage actually calls for eradicating the emotional scar that Amalek left in the Jewish people which can happen in different ways: for Amalek it was to destroy them; for Nazis it was to defeat them and then have them accept responsibility and repent for their actions.

Israel has good relations with Germany today.

Hamas resembles all three groups. It is a ruling government like the Nazis, democratically elected to 58% of parliament by Palestinians. It rules over territory, much like ISIS and has a radical jihadi philosophy about killing Jews. Like Amalek, Hamas specifically targeted the most vulnerable Jewish non-combatants.

The foundational charter of Hamas is a noxious screed of antisemitic conspiracy theories about Jewish control with calls to slaughter Jews and destroy the Jewish State. A sample of the invective includes:

“Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it.” (Opening)
“Our struggle against the Jews is very great and very serious.” (Preamble)
“Moslems fight the Jews (killing the Jews)… there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him” (Article 7)
“There is no solution for the Palestinian question except through Jihad. Initiatives, proposals and international conferences are all a waste of time” (Article 13)
“In face of the Jews’ usurpation of Palestine, it is compulsory that the banner of Jihad be raised…. the Palestinian problem is a religious problem, and should be dealt with on this basis.” (Article 15)
“In their Nazi treatment, the Jews made no exception for women or children… [Jews] attack people where their breadwinning is concerned, extorting their money” (Article 20)
“The Zionist plan is limitless. After Palestine, the Zionists aspire to expand from the Nile to the Euphrates…. Their plan is embodied in the “Protocols of the Elders of Zion”, and their present conduct is the best proof of what we are saying.… fight with the warmongering Jews.” (Article 32)

The evil philosophy of Hamas was laid out in its carefully constructed charter by dozens of people over months in the 1980s, Palestinians voted them to power in 2006 and widely support them post-October 7 according to many Palestinian polls.

The very word “Nazis” brings to mind the most evil and sadistic murderers. Over the second half of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st, it was used to mark the worst antisemitic and racist White people. “Hamas” has earned that loathsome dishonor, for the most heinous and vicious antisemitic jihadists of the 21st century.

White people preaching antisemitism today are called neo-Nazis and their actions against Jewish targets bring convictions in courts for hate crimes. So it must be with Hamas supporters (neo-Hamasites?) who attack Jews and Jewish targets with messages related to the annihilation of the Jewish State.

Gaza Swag

Posted on January 22, 2024 by First.One.Through

Swag is commonly thought of as customized merchandise which people take from parties or conventions. The actual definition is illegally taken booty or loot.

Swag from Gaza comes in both varieties.

Israeli soldiers operating in Gaza are obviously confiscating weapons that they find throughout the territory. As Gaza is a densely-populated civilian area, these weapons of war are found in many homes, schools and mosques. Soldiers find many other items in those locations which they also bring back to Israel.

A favorite item are the Hamas headbands. These are found throughout Gazan homes, as the group which governs Gaza is very popular. Some Israelis bring these back as souvenirs. Israeli soldiers are reported to have taken Hamas patches and logos on other items as well.

Hamas posters in UNRWA schools are also a favorite. Some are handed to the Israeli government along with school textbooks which call for the genocide of Jews to press the case for reform at the United Nations. Others are keepsakes to hang on the soldiers’ own walls when they come home, to remind them of the barbarity of Hamas.

Many soldiers have reported seeing screensavers on computers of Adolf Hitler as well as his book “Mein Kampf” written in Arabic in people’s homes. Some of those things have found there way into Israel as well.

Palestinian Arabs also took swag from Israel: Jewish bodies.

Israeli soldier Cpl. Adir Tahar, 19, was decapitated by Palestinians on October 7 after he was killed in an explosion. His father found out from an interrogation of captured Hamas fighters that Arabs took his son’s severed head to Gaza and tried to sell if for $10,000.

Hamas also took many whole Jewish bodies to Gaza. The corpses were beaten and spat upon by dozens of Palestinians as the dead Jews were driven through the streets. It is unclear if the dead were marketed to the locals or held for ransom, as Hamas has said that they do not know the location of many hostages. Many were alive, some children to poke and prod. Grandparents and peace activists pulled from their homes. To shouts of “Allahu Akbar!“

*Dead Israeli woman, killed by Hamas in a dance festival, being taken into Gaza*

Israelis are bringing Hamas swag to Israel as evidence of the United Nations’ complicity in the war against Israel and reminder that the evil ideology extends well beyond 30,000 fighters. Meanwhile Hamas hauls Jews to Gaza – alive and dead, in whole or in parts – as a form of income and satisfaction.

There is a profound political deformity and moral depravity in Palestinian society today. When governments demand that Israel ignore both and discuss enabling a Palestinian state next door at this very moment in time while Jews are still trapped in captivity is a cruel form of psychological torture.

The “Context” For October 7 Is Palestinians Prioritize Destroying Israel Over Getting Statehood

Posted on January 21, 2024 by First.One.Through

The disgusting defenses of Hamas and its sadistic brutality committed on October 7, 2023 come in a number of varieties. Some people openly support the killing of Jews and desire to see the destruction of the Jewish State. Others excuse Hamas’s atrocities by stating that the actions require “context,” meaning Israeli activities limiting movement and denying Palestinian Arabs a nation. This is a discussion on the second group, as the first are obviously vile and dangerous antisemites who should be driven from the public square.

Denying Versus Not Declaring A Palestinian State

Apologists for Palestinian terrorists include Rep. Jamaal Bowman of New York’s 16th District, who argue that Palestinians have been denied their rights for 75 years, as Bowman recently said at a Yonkers event with notorious anti-Zionist Norman Finkelstein, who had described the October 7 massacre as “heroic resistance.” Bowman’s statement is a complete lie.

It was Palestinian and regional Arabs who rejected forming an Arab state during the November 1947 United Nations partition plan. It was Palestinian and regional Arab countries that waged a war to destroy Israel in 1948-9 and not form a State of Palestine in the aftermath. It was those same groups that again tried to destroy Israel in 1967 rather than declare a Palestinian State.

Again and again, Palestinians themselves did not declare a state as they wanted the entirety of the land “from the river to the sea” to be the State of Palestine, so focused their efforts on destroying Israel. When they made moves to accept a state on part of the land in the Oslo Accords, they once again opted for war in 2000 rather than forge a final settlement.

The Independent Gaza Strip

After Israel put down the multi-year Two-Percent Palestinian war waged from 2000 to 2004, Israeli leaders decided to give Palestinians more independence and self-determination. With assurance from President George W. Bush in an April 4, 2004 letter to Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, Israel disengaged from Gaza, knowing that the U.S. was committed to backing Israel on key points that deadlocked the Oslo agreements: that final borders of Israel would not be along the 1949 Armistice Lines / “1967 borders” and would prioritize Israeli security and facts on the ground; and that Palestinian “refugees” (mostly descendants of Arabs who once lived in Israel) would settle in a new Palestinian State and not have a “right of return” to towns grandparents once lived in in Israel.

Israel withdrew all civilians and military from the Gaza Strip in September 2005. Palestinians were elated. According to a poll Palestinians conducted of themselves on the eve of Israeli withdrawal, “84% see it [Gaza withdrawal] as victory for armed resistance,” meaning that they saw the terrorism waged from 2000 to 2004 as forcing Israel to leave the region unilaterally. As opposed to the Oslo Agreement in which they would have needed to recognize the Jewish State but gotten most of the West Bank too, they got independence and self-determination just in Gaza without acknowledging Jewish rights to anything.

With their newfound freedom, Palestinians went to the voting booths in January 2006 to vote in a Palestinian parliament. Hamas, with its violent and antisemitic jihadi charter which calls for killing Jews and destruction of Israel, trampled the more secular Fatah, winning 58% of the parliamentary seats. (The last time the US Congress was so dominated by a single party was 2009 when Democrats had 59%).

The sentiment and quest for Jewish blood similarly rose.

When Israel pulled out of Gaza in September 2005, 46% of Gazans said that they supported killing Jews inside of Israel. By March 2006, that percentage rose to 64% and continued to rise.

In June 2007, Hamas violently threw out the Palestinian Authority and took over full control of Gaza. At that point, 74% of Gazans supported terrorism against Jews in Israel, even before Israel imposed a blockade on the strip. During the roughly two years that Palestinian Arabs had independence and self-determination – the only time in history when they had such freedom – their thirst for violent jihad INCREASED.

Palestinians have shown repeatedly that the desire to eliminate Israel dwarves their goal of self-determination and a state. Discussions of handing Palestinians more territory to rule after their sadistic savagery is not just blind to history and Arab sentiment, but dismisses the humanity of over 7 million Jews in Israel living in their ancestral homeland.

And those who argue that Hamas’s massacre has “context” are correct but facts and history prove the exact opposite point they claim: Palestinians are determined to wage war against Jews regardless of the cost of lives and irrespective of the level of their freedom.

ACTION ITEM

Email Rep. Jamaal Bowman “Palestinians commit and support terrorism because they have prioritized the destruction of Israel over statehood. A new Palestinian state will only come with recognizing the Jewish State and accepting that there is no “right of return” of millions of Arabs into Israel.”
