Dems either ignoring or self-stimulating over attacks on American jewish people

Discussion in 'Politics' started by TreeFrogTrader, May 20, 2021.

  1. As long as LAPD is doing something about it I am not concerned about politicians looking to stroke themselves with soundbytes for CNN and MSNBC...

    SO tired of people waiting for useless politicians to be the spokes people. jews have been under attack for decades even going back to the 1950s when they were not allowed in clubs and private schools. No one did shit to stop it so jews came up with their own schools and clubs and said fuck you to the anti semites. They started their own businesses etc.

    The problem with Israel is that them being the only democracy in the region as well as our only ally means we overlook a lot of shit they do but also ignorant people think Israeli = Jew = every Jew to walk the earth. Israel is its own political and cultural nation.

    I know my friends political leanings and a number of them lean left. Lost 1 friend because despite, telling him not to discuss politics with me, he continued and I guess he did not like what I said. Ended up comparing me to his rich friends who did not even acknowledge him. Typical leftist, he tries to demean you when he is losing the argument. This guy is no friend and I can only say good riddance. People should leave their politics in their homes and respect contrary views. Leftists are the most intolerant people around despite, claiming to promote diversity and all their BS beliefs.

    NYC School principal urges terrorism against Jews...

    NYC principal under fire for telling staff to 'take action' against Israel, make 'commitment to Palestinian liberation'

    https://www.theblaze.com/news/new-york-city-principal-palestinian-liberation

    A New York City middle school principal is under fire for telling teachers and administrators to "take action" against Israel and make a "public commitment to Palestinian liberation." Principal Amanda Bueno emailed staffers at MS 136 in Brooklyn a list of actions they should take to support Palestine in the most recent Israel-Gaza conflict.

    The email in question, which is titled "Day of Action in Solidarity with The Palestinian Uprising & General Strike," urged teachers to demand sanctions on Israel from U.S. government officials.

    "Yesterday was the Day of Action in Solidarity with the Palestinian Uprising & General Strike. If you have been watching the news in absolute horror, you are not alone," Bueno began the email, which was published by the New York Post.

    HATE CRIME
    Jewish teens assaulted by group who demanded they yell ‘kill all the Jews’ before punching them in the head
    https://www.the-sun.com/news/2943654/jewish-teens-assaulted-antisemitic-phrases/

    AN "angry" mob assaulted two Jewish teenagers after they refused to yell anti-Semitic phrases like "kill all the Jews."

    The group surrounded the pair, aged 17 and 18, before repeatedly punching them in the head in Brooklyn, New York, on Saturday night.

    The attackers tried to force the teenagers to chant "free Palestine" and hate-filled speech before beating them, officials said.

    Former New York State Assemblyman Dov Hikind said on Twitter that the teens were "surrounded by an angry mob with baseball bats" in the early evening.

    He said they were "saved by a Muslim Uber driver who drove them to safety."

    The victims told cops a group of men got out of a Toyota Camry before the assault.

  6. Without getting into the conflict were those teachers simply not watching when hundreds of rockets from gaza were sent to strike civilian areas in Israel?

    I love all those apparently smart people who get very selective on what offends them haha

    The email in question, which is titled "Day of Action in Solidarity with The Palestinian Uprising & General Strike," urged teachers to demand sanctions on Israel from U.S. government officials.

    "Yesterday was the Day of Action in Solidarity with the Palestinian Uprising & General Strike. If you have been watching the news in absolute horror, you are not alone," Bueno began the email, which was published by the New York Post.

    "You can take action today by protesting, attending a vigil, making a public commitment to Palestinian Liberation, signing a petition, or calling your government officials to place sanctions on Israel,"
    Bueno wrote on Wednesday morning.

    "The time is now to take a stand for those impacted by state-sanctioned violence and crimes against the humanity of the most vulnerable in our world," the email read. "We need not prove their humanity and right to exist for us to spread awareness about these issues. Empathy is the bare minimum."

    The email included a list of links and resources to enable teachers to take action against Israel and support Palestinians.

    "Here are some notes and resources from the Institute for Anti-Racist Education," the principal wrote.

    She included a link to the "Teach Palestine" website and an article titled "'American Taxpayer Money Is Being Used To Commit Human Rights Violations' In Israel, Says Rep. Rashida Tlaib."

    An MS 136 teacher, who is Jewish, told the New York Post, "I opened the email and I was in shock. I felt very targeted and very attacked by her words."

    "These resources she provided, it's propaganda," the teacher added. "There was nothing in the email about Hamas rockets targeting innocent Israeli civilians."


    Lawyer Inna Vernikov sent a letter to the New York Department of Education calling for Bueno to be punished.

    "New York law forbids requesting or encouraging any public servant, city employee, or subordinate public servant/employee to engage in political activities," Vernikov wrote.

    StopAntisemitism.org, a non-profit foundation that "works to hold antisemites accountable," stated, "NY law forbids encouraging any public servant or city employee from engaging in politics. This didn't stop Brooklyn Middle School 136 Principal Amanda Bueno from sending out a school wide email titled 'Day of Action in Solidarity with The Palestinian Uprising & General Strike.'"

    New York City Schools Chancellor Meisha Porter said Bueno made "a clear exercise of poor judgment."

    "The MS 136 principal must apologize for her email," Porter tweeted. "This was a clear exercise of poor judgment & we will take appropriate follow-up action. We must teach complex current events without bringing our political activities or beliefs into the classroom."

    Nathaniel Steyer, a spokesman for the Department of Education, said, "The matter is being addressed internally and was referred to [the special commissioner of investigation] for further investigation."

    "Schools are not public forums for purposes of political expression, and staff may not use DOE resources in the furtherance of personal or political activities," Steyer added.

    you should write for OANN, not even "the blaze" lol stooped as low as your interpretation of the teacher's statements.

    So clearly this principal advocated "taking action" (code words for physical violence) against Jews. Now she is under fire for violating the rules. "New York law forbids requesting or encouraging any public servant, city employee, or subordinate public servant/employee to engage in political activities," as noted in the article. They are demanding the MS136 principle apologize for her email. However this is a situation where the principal should be fired... but it is very difficult to fire a public school employee in New York City even when they are responsible for gross misconduct.

  9. I think you are making a huge OAN stretch to say her call to action was a call to violence... especially when she defined what she meant in her own email:

    "You can take action today by protesting, attending a vigil, making a public commitment to Palestinian Liberation, signing a petition, or calling your government officials to place sanctions on Israel," Bueno wrote on Wednesday morning.


    She was wrong to take a public stand using her position on this issue and like most Americans she has no idea about the history or background in this conflict which goes back before she was even born. I would say 99% of Americans have no understanding except to simply say "Hamas Bad" or "Israel is Apartheid" which makes for nice slogans.

    Typical Americans trying to look all woke and taking a side in a political and ethnic war that they know nothing about. PLO and Hamas have acted like terrorists but Israel did not put themselves in a good light demanding that Palestinians be forced out of their homes so that they can move in Jewish settlers, many of whom probably never even grew up in Israel but suddenly demanding a house and land and Israel just said take those people's houses.
