“Globalize the Intifada” (click here)
This expression is used among the Pro-Palestinian movement and it needs to stop. It is being translated into a blanket hatred of the Jewish religion and the Hebrew ethnicity. It is this expression that is endangering the lives of American Jewish students on campuses across the country.
WESPAC (Westchester Peace Action Committee) (click here) has been instrumental in supporting the Pro-Palestinian movement. In it's defense a Board Chair discusses his Jewish identity (click here). Sorry, but, that does not justify the use by any movement to declare a global intifada.
One of the founders of WESPAC died in 2022. I believe the long time CEO of the organization is Nada Khader. It would be her that at the very least is out of touch with the real hatred and danger her organizations supports and/or she actually approves of the use of intifada by the movement.
"...WESPAC (click here) is an organization which grants financial support to The National Students for Justice in Palestine (NSJP), the umbrella organization of the Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) and one of the main promotors of the anti-Israel campus protests which started in the US earlier this year, and spread to campuses around the world...."
President Biden has continually called for peaceful demonstrations to bring dialogue to the circumstances surrounding the war in Gaza between Hamas, an international terrorist organization supported by Iran, and Israel. I doubt President Biden or any other leader involved with these students understood the violent demonstrations on college campuses were actually a hate motivated activity by those that declared a "Globalization of Intifada."
Such standards of hate are prosecutable when it is accompanied by pain, suffering, injury, and death of any focus of that hate. There have been Jewish students across the US attacked and now the reason for the cohesive hatred is clear. It is an organized hate campaign and cannot be tolerated.
April 25, 2024All the pro-Palestinian organizations should be disbanded and how dare they use the sympathies of Americans to incorporate hatred into what many involved in these demonstrations believed were for peace and acceptance of difference, religious differences of all things.
The activities of these organizations, including the funding missions, should be considered nefarious in their intent and investigations pursued where appropriate. The leaders of the colleges that took a stand against encampments that included police actions and arrests followed by expulsion of students involved in the violence are completely correct in their actions.
There is nothing innocent in any of these demonstrations and encampments. They are influenced by those practicing religious bigotry. It is outrageous to realize this movement was so insidious in our democracy as to cause such national disruption and it was all based in hatred of the Jewish race and their religious practices.
The actions of these organizations and their leaders, including student leaders, must be considered adverse to any democratic principle and criminal in their intent FROM THE BEGINNING!
