Sarsour represents everything that is oppressive towards women!  Let us not be deceived!!!!

Replace her with Nonie Darwish a True Feminist!  Author of several books the latest being Wholy Different: "Why I chose Biblical Values over Islamic Values" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonie_Darwish
  • Darwish, Nonie (2017). Wholy Different: Why I Chose Biblical Values Over Islamic Values. Washington, D.C.: Regnery Publishing. ISBN 9781621575788OCLC 945232390.

Nonie Darwish has her finger on the mark.  

This is all about a clash of Civilization. Islamic Values vs Biblical Values! Sharia vs 7 Noahide Laws and the Laws of Universal Morality. http://www.chabad.org/therebbe/article_cdo/aid/62221/jewish/Universal-Morality.htm  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_Laws_of_Noah

Jihad Civilization is the goal of Hamas. As Brigette Gabrielle says, There is no hidden agenda. It is the open goal of the Muslim Brotherhood. It is to replace G-d of Israel with Islam and Sharia Law to be the Supremacist religion over any other.  Deception is a tool and is encouraged to infiltrate organizations and educational institutions and religious institutions and to use the tools of the system to destroy the system. 

LISTEN Pamela Geller on Sean Hannity Radio with Nonie Darwish: #CancelSarsour Protest Hate at CUNY

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From:
Dear Friends of Israel and the Jewish People,
Our silence or our action will determine if we are going to witness the institutionalization of anti-Semitism in our beloved New York City.

At this moment, Linda Sarsour, an avowed and unabashed champion of boycott, divestment, and sanctions against Israel,  is being promoted by the Henry Street Settlement (a historical Jewish institution) as a panelist tomorrow at the Lilian Wald Symposium at the Abrons Art Center entitled "Immigrant New York: The New Majority" (protest on Tuesday, May 16th from 5:30 – 8 p.m. at 466 Grand St., NYC) and is scheduled to be the commencement speaker at the June 1st graduation ceremony of the City University of New York's School of Public Health (protest on May 25th from 12 – 2 p.m. at CUNY Administration offices:  217 E. 42nd St., Midtown, NYC.)   The Brooklyn-born daughter of Palestinian Arab Muslim immigrants was the Executive Director of the Arab-American Association of New York for ten years before she rose to national prominence and became a leader of the Women's March on Washington.  She received her cloak of legitimacy from Obama who declared her a "Champion of Change" and invited her to the White House ten times as documented by NYS Assemblyman Dov Hikind and reported by Fern Sidman (Jewish Connection, 5/12/17).  Her shrewd crowdfunding effort to repair two desecrated Jewish cemeteries was an ingenious strategy that disguised her anti-Semitism, endearing herself to many in the Jewish Community who are seemingly oblivious to her operationalization of the classic anti-Israel Arab propaganda : "We love the Jews.  It is Zionism we hate."    

At the forefront of the effort to expose Sarsour's hatred, are New York City Councilman Rory Lancman, New York State Assemblyman Dov Hikind, Zionist Organization President Mort Klein, former CUNY Trustee Jeff Wiesenfeld, and Rabbi Zvi Romm of the Lower East Side's Bialystoker Synagogue.    Assemblyman Hikind reported that on April 2nd of this year, Sarsour appeared on a Chicago stage with convicted terrorist Rasmea Yousef Odeh (she was responsible for a supermarket bombing in Israel that killed two young men and wounded nine others; Israel released her in a prisoner exchange and she has since been deported from the U.S. for committing fraud), and proclaimed Odeh a hero (Jewish Connection, 5/12/17).   Linda Sarsour recently appeared in a photograph with Salah Sarsour, a former Hamas operative who was convicted by Israel for supporting terrorism (Anti-Defamation League, 3/29/13), at a Conference of the Muslim American Society and the Islamic Circle of North America (Daily Caller, 1/12/17).   Linda Sarsour has acknowledged that members of her family are imprisoned in Israel for providing support to the terrorist organization Hamas (New York Times, 8/8/12).



It is critical that we contact the CUNY officials listed below and tell them:

"We are shocked that CUNY invited the hate-mongerer Linda Sarsour who is an unapologetic supporter of an ideology that condones terrorism designed to ethnically cleanse Israel of all Jews and drive them into the sea by any all means necessary.   She diverts attention from the human rights abuses taking place in Palestinian Arab controlled areas by creating the false perception that she is fighting for women's rights.   Linda Sarsour claims to be a feminist but, in fact,  has degraded women who disagree with her using vicious and obscene language and has advocated for Shariah Law which condones treating women in a manner that is antithetical to the freedoms women enjoy in this country.   Who was responsible for making this decision that is so offensive to so many in this city?"   (We will say that as alumni of CUNY, we are so ashamed!)

"We were also shocked to find out that the commencement of the CUNY School of Public Health is being held on the major Jewish holiday of Shavuot (Shavuos)."

"We demand that CUNY School of Public Health rescind its invitation to Linda Sarsour and re-schedule its commencement."

Trump Travel Planners Tell Israel: The Western Wall is Not Yours 
http://www.jewishpress.com/news/us-news/trump-travel-planners-tell-israel-the-western-wall-is-not-yours/2017/05/15/  According to one national security insider who spoke with the Washington Free Beacon, "The problem is that the Obama administration left holdovers all over the government, so you get rid of one Obama loyalist and the replacement is another Obama loyalist."

My comments: 

The same faction that says that the Western Wall, the Kotel, does not belong to Israel is the same as those who say that Trump does not belong in the White House.

All we can do is to encourage Trump to continue to #CleanTheSwamp

There are strong forces intent on Jihad Civilization via infiltration into government offices. They will infiltrate into the Republicans not only the Democrats.  Even Vosizneias has been infested... "Demonization of Soros?" http://www.vosizneias.com/269638/2017/05/15/warsaw-poland-demonization-of-soros-recalls-old-anti-semitic-conspiracies/  Soros, financier and philanthropist?

The Juggernaut and the Jerks on Donald Trumps by Joan Swirsky. Amazing List of Accomplishments since Taking Office since January 20, 2017


bs"d

What a wonderful list of accomplishments!  The Trump Administration deserves  acknowledgment and recognition! Kol HaKavod!

Since President Trump was inaugurated on January 20, 2017, a number of people have scrupulously monitored his accomplishments. They include Sean Hannity’s producer Sweet Baby James, Gateway Pundit founder Jim Hoft, conservative commentator and former presidential candidate Gary Bauer, and Jeff Dunetz, creator of the blog The Lid, among others. The listing below was compiled by the above-mentioned people and represents many but not all of the non-stop accomplishments of President Trump––the juggernaut––during his first three months in office.

NEW YORK, May 15, 2017

The Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) hopes that everyone – especially every American Jew – will take a few minutes to listen to and send to your friends last week's phenomenal speech by the Jerusalem Post's brilliant and most popular columnist, Caroline Glick.  A video of Ms. Glick's speech at the Jerusalem Post Conference can be viewed here or here.  For our readers' convenience, and because Ms. Glick's message is so important, ZOA has also transcribed Ms. Glick's speech below. 

Ms. Glick explains that is vital for the American Jewish community's future for us to stand with and defend our true friends, such as Congresswoman Grace Meng and White House official Dr. Sebastian Gorka.  We cannot be silent when true friends of Israel and the Jewish people are slandered.  It is deplorable and demoralizing that elements of the Jewish community (such as The Forward newspaper) are slandering friends such as Dr. Gorka – in the name of countering anti-Semitism, no less! 

We must also confront our enemies, such as anti-Semite Linda Sarsour.  Sarsour supports Hamas, the anti-Israel intifada and the anti-Israel BDS movement which denies free speech to supporters of Israel on college campuses and elsewhere.  Sarsour tweeted encouragement to Palestinian Arabs to throw rocks at Jews; denies the right of anyone who supports Israel to call herself a feminist; and says that there is nothing creepier than Zionism.

It is distressing that the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and the American Jewish Committee (AJC) have been silent about Ms. Sarsour.  

The ZOA is honored that during her speech, Ms. Glick praised ZOA and ZOA President Morton Klein three times for being a lone diplomatic voice defending our friends such as Dr. Gorka, and for "raising holy hell" about honors bestowed on anti-Semite Linda Sarsour.  We were also honored by the crowd's applause when Ms. Glick mentioned ZOA and Mr. Klein.   

The ZOA is honored that during her speech, Ms. Glick praised ZOA and ZOA President Morton Klein three times for being a lone diplomatic voice defending our friends such as Dr. Gorka, and for "raising holy hell" about honors bestowed on anti-Semite Linda Sarsour.

Like Ms. Glick, ZOA urges all in the American Jewish community to join us in standing up for our friends and confronting our enemies.

(For some of ZOA's recent efforts on these matters, see, e.g.: "ZOA: FORWARD'S Campaign Calling Trump Aide Gorka Anti-Semitic is a Lie – Gorka is Friend of Jews/Israel," Mar. 17, 2017; "ZOA: The Forward Smears WH Aide Gorka with Spliced Video and Falsehoods," Apr. 4, 2017; "Exclusive: ZOA's Morton Klein: 'Sebastian Gorka Is a Great Friend of Israel'," by Adelle Nazarian, Breitbart, Mar. 21, 2017; "ZOA to Sen. Gillibrand: Cancel Bigoted CUNY Commencement Speaker Sarsour," Apr. 26, 2017; "JTA: ZOA/Others Urge Cancelling CUNY Honoring Anti-Israel Bigot Sarsour," Apr. 27, 2017; "Why Are ADL And AJC Silent On CUNY Honoring Israel-Hating Linda Sarsour?," May 1, 2017; "ZOA to CUNY Chancellor Milliken: Withdraw Invitation to Pro-Terror Sarsour," May 4, 2017; "NYC Dem, Pro-Israel Activist Battle Over Linda Sarsour Speech," (Morton Klein on Martha MacCallum show) Fox News, May 1, 2017.)

Transcript of Carolyn Glick's Speech at the Jerusalem Post Conference on May 7, 2017

Thank you all for coming and thank you all for staying till the end of this conference.  I think from year to year we go from strength to strength.   I don't know about you, but I just thought that the days' remarks by everybody have just been extraordinary.  It's been enlightening for me.  I hope you've enjoyed it as much as I.

And I don't want to belabor how wonderful it is, but I think one of the things that really is inspiring about the conference that we had today is that it shows just how extraordinary Israel is.   What a strong and vibrant and really miraculous country it is, 69 years after its founding, which came of course three years after May 7, 1945, when Germany surrendered to the Allies.  So we really see what happened to the Jewish people in Israel and how extraordinary the accomplishments of all the people who have built this country and continue to build this country today really are, and have been, and how important they are not only for the Jewish people but really for the entire world.

Rather than talking about how great everything is, I want to turn my attention, as is my wont, to things that aren't doing as well. 

Consider it to be my position, my job, to challenge my readers, to challenge you, to challenge the Jewish people and our allies, to do better.  We can do more.   One of ways that we could do more, for instance, would be to have Grace Meng elected the Chairwoman of the DNC.  [audience cheers and applauds]   Really what's so extraordinary about her is what an extraordinary friend she is to the Jewish people here in New York City, and to the Jewish people in the United States and in Israel.  And we have to admire her for that.  And we have to stand with her for that.  

Just as we have to stand with all of our friends here in the United States and around the world.  And we have to challenge and confront and oppose our enemies here in the United States and throughout the world.  And I fear that today in the Jewish community in the United States, there is an alarming unwillingness to do both of those things. 

Just to focus my remarks for a second, I'm going to be talking about two people in particular.  One is a woman named Linda Sarsour [audience boos] and the other one is a gentleman that you met this morning named Sebastian Gorka. [audience applauds]  In their twin stories, we really do see the central challenge that's facing specifically the American Jewish community today.  I would be irresponsible if I let this conference go without mentioning this very central challenge to the vibrancy and well-being in many ways of this community and the freedom of this community that I grew up in, and that my family are members of.

One of the previous speakers mentioned that Zambish had said, one of the veterans of the Six Day War, one of the liberators of Jerusalem, said that "We weren't responding to the Jordan Legion.  We were responding in 1967 to Titus."

One of the things that we don't know, and I only just learned and I was shocked to find out is that General Titus's Chief of Staff of Titus was an apostate Jew.  His father was the Chief Rabbi in Alexandria.  I forgot his name.  I think it is important to recognize that sometimes we do see Jews playing, or Jews by birth playing very destructive roles for the Jewish community.  We saw it throughout the Middle Ages, certainly in Europe.

Today we have a situation in the Democratic Party, where, to the side of extraordinary friends of the Jewish people like Congresswoman Grace Meng, we have a rising star by the name of Linda Sansour.  Linda Sarsour was extolled by President Obama as a "change maker," I think he called her.  She was listed as one of the most influential people by Time Magazine last year.  She was the head of the women's march, that opposed President Trump the day after his inauguration. Not to put too fine a point on it, but she's an anti-Semite.  [audience applauds and cheers.]   

Linda Sarsour has said that there is nothing creepier than Zionism.  She has said that Zionist women cannot be feminists.  She's a major supporter of BDS [anti-Israel, anti-Semitic boycotts, divestment and sanctions].  She supports Hamas.  She's tweeted in favor of Palestinians stoning Israeli cars.  And she's going to actually be a commencement speaker at CUNY on June 1st.  [audience boos]

So, when my colleague and friend Mort Klein from the ZOA [audience applauds] – that's right – began to raise holy hell over the fact that she was just bestowed this honor, just as others had, including Mort Klein, raised holy hell about the fact that she was one of the principle organizers of the march of woman on January 21st in Washington DC, we found that the hierarchy of the Democratic Party circled wagons and is backing her.  To the point that the Vice Chairman of the Democratic Party here in New York City by the name of Michael Blake, tweeted a post a couple of weeks ago saying that nobody should be challenging Linda Sarsour and that the Democratic Party has to stand by her.  She was a super-delegate at the Democratic convention over the summer. 

The distressing thing to me is that, while two Congressmen have called on CUNY to disinvite Linda Sarsour from speaking at the commencement of CUNY's School of Public Health, the vast majority of the Jewish organizations that are headquartered in this country, in this city, have not.  The Anti-Defamation League [ADL] has been silent on it.  The American Jewish Committee [AJC] has been silent on it. 

And this is very disturbing to me.  Because it's not a question of just not wanting to be part of something.  You see here a woman who really is a bigot towards Jews, toward Jewish Americans. Who supports BDS, which really is about making it impossible for Jewish Americans on college campuses and other places to freely express their support for Israel and their identification with Zionism, the Jewish national liberation movement.  She's being upheld.  She's being honored.  She's being extolled as a role model for graduates of CUNY's Graduate School of Public Health because she's going to be speaking at their commencement ceremony.  This is something that simply should be fought.  Because if she is allowed to rise, without a massive outcry from the Jewish community about the direction that things are going in the Democratic party, we can't be surprised that she and others like her will continue to be empowered in that party.

It's the job of the Jewish-American community to stand up for itself, to stand up for its freedoms.  [audience applauds.]  And to speak truth to the institutions that they're most identified with, including the Democratic Party.   And say: "This is our home as Americans.  And we're not at home in a party that empowers anti-Semites like Linda Sarsour." 

So it's not a question of simply not wanting to be involved.  It's a question of complicity with the rise of forces that are bigoted towards the American Jewish community.   I truly believe that this is something that just isn't right.   And has to be changed very quickly.

On the other hand, we have Dr. Gorka, who, aside from the fact that I am honored and privileged to number him among my personal friends, is a true friend of the Jewish community in the United States and a true friend of Israel in the White House.   He's an advocate for a strong US-Israel alliance in the halls of power where he sits.  Throughout his career, he has been an outspoken supporter of Israel, and defender of Israel, against all takers.  

And yet, he right now is the focus of a very deliberate and slanderous campaign to castigate him as a Nazi.  And the worst thing about this horrible slanderous campaign against this very good and honorable man and true friend of the Jewish people, is that it's being conducted by American Jews, in the name of fighting anti-Semitism.  I find this deeply distressing.  I find it deeply distressing.

The other day I went onto the Forward's web page.  I think they [The Forward] have published something like 39 articles against him [Dr. Gorka] in the past several weeks.  [audience boos]  They [The Forward] is raising money on their campaign against him, saying: "The New Yorker says that The Forward is leading the campaign against Sebastian Gorka.  Please send ten dollars."   

This is simply an outrage.  It's simply an outrage.  And it's lashon hara [evil speech, forbidden by the Jewish law].  It's an embarrassment.  It's demoralizing.  It's demoralizing to Israel's friends, of whom Israel has millions and millions, and the Jewish community has millions and millions, tens of millions in the United States who support Israel.  Who support and want to protect Jewish freedom in this country.  Who support a strong American-Israel alliance.  And who want to ensure that both countries are safe and prosperous for the long haul. 

[It's demoralizing to our friends] when you see that prestigious distinguished members of the Jewish community have taken it upon themselves to demonize one of Israel's best friends in Washington today.

And again here, my friend and colleague Mort Klein is one of the leading and lone members of the public  diplomacy, of the public world in the United States defending him [Dr. Gorka]. 

You had 51 members demanding to be fired, for nothing.  For lies.   

This is something that again challenges the Jewish community.  It says to the Jews of the United States: "Where are your voices?  Stand up for your friend.  Stand up for our friend.  Don't allow people slander a good and honorable man, as a Nazi."  [audience applauds]

It's important to understand that this is a precarious situation.   You guys know.  You live here in New York City.  There is a tremendous amount of rage in this country.  There is a great division in this country, about a lot of things.  

The Trump presidency is a gift, I believe, to the American people.  [audience applauds] It's certainly a gift to Israel.  [audience applauds.]  But whatever you may think of Donald Trump's presidency, whether you like it or don't like it, you understand that he was elected president of the United States.  And he has the right and the duty to lead this country for the next four years.  And for the benefit of the United States of America, all Americans of good will should hope that he succeeds in that mission.

One of the ways that we have to work to ensure that he is successful both for the betterment of Israel and for the entire free world, is to ensure that the Jewish community is able to get it right.  Is able to understand that while it's true that the vast majority of the Jewish community in the United States is not supportive of the Republican Party or the Republican president sitting in the White House, they have to stand by truth.  They cannot castigate people and demonize people who are true friends of the Jewish people.  They cannot be silent when other people are doing that.  They cannot simply say: "Well, you know, maybe there's something to it."

They have to check it out, like Rabbi Billet of Young Israel of the Five Towns did, when he wrote an article over the weekend before Shabbat, published in Algemeiner, where he set out, chapter and verse, all the lies that are at the heart sole and details of the slander of Sebastian Gorka. 

You have to be able to look into something and say: "How can our community be involved with the slander of this man?  It's a horrible thing.  It's a horrible thing."

And how is it possible that Linda Sarsour is given legitimacy by the second largest party in this two-party country as a champion of human rights and a champion of women's rights – when she denies the Jewish people our human rights?  And our civil rights.  When through the BDS movement she wants to silence the voices, and deny freedom of speech and expression to Jewish Americans on college campuses throughout this country.  When she would want to deny Jewish women the right to call themselves feminists because they support Israel. 

We have a lot celebrate today.  We have a lot to celebrate as Jews, and you saw so many of the reasons for it today throughout this conference.  There are enormous reasons and sources for optimism, going forward, tomorrow, next week, next month, and into the years to come, and as we look forward to the future of our children and our grandchildren.

But in order to ensure that the promise that we see today in so many different spheres that we heard so much about throughout this really thrilling conference, we have to ensure that we get the basics right.  And the basics are this:  You have to stand with your friends.  And you have to oppose your enemies.  Because then people will want to be your friends.  And they won't want to be your enemies.  

There are enough people out there who are enemies of the Jewish people and who are enemies of the United States.  We have to be able to stand united, as the Jewish people.  The Jewish community of the United States, and the Jewish people in Israel – the largest Jewish community in the world today, and say: "We stand for freedom, not only for others, but also for ourselves.  And that means that we are going to stand with people who defend that freedom, and we're going to oppose those that don't."

These are the basic things that we need to do on a daily basis, to ensure that all the extraordinary things that are happening in the world today, in the Jewish world today, are able to live out their potential.   And we can continue to celebrate our luck in being Jews today and into the future.  [audience applauds]

Thank you.  [audience applauds]  Thank you very much.  And thank you for coming. [applause continues.]

It's Been 50 Years - End the Occupation!
By Shmuel Sackett
http://www.zehutinternational.com/single-post/2017/05/14/Its-Been-50-Years---End-the-Occupation
 

How long can people occupy a land? How long can innocent civilians live under difficult conditions? How much blood must be shed until we realize that this is simply not working? It has been 50 years since the 6 Day War… yet the dreaded occupation goes on and on.

I say "Dayenu" – Enough is Enough! We must end the occupation now and forever! I agree with 99% of what "Peace Now" says; no more war, no more stealing land, no more violence against women and children and no more occupation! The only thing I disagree with – it's really just one word of what "Peace Now" says – that the word "Arab" needs to changed with the word "Jew".

Here's the change: No more Arabs occupying Jewish land. No more Arab settlements. No more Arabs preventing Jews from praying at the burial places of Yosef, Yehoshua Ben-Nun, Pinchas, Elazar and Itamar. No more Jews building walls around Kever Rachel and the Mount of Olives.

For 50 years many Jews have lived in fear in many parts of Israel. While it's true that hundreds of thousands have defied danger by building homes all across Yehuda and Shomron, many more Israelis are so fearful, they won't even drive to cities like Ariel. Every town in Yehuda and Shomron and most towns in the Negev, Galilee, Jordan Valley and the Golan Heights have 24/7 security. The time has come for Jews to stop being afraid to live in their own land and this can only be done by ending the occupation… the occupation of Arabs on Jewish land!

Actually, without even trying, things are heading in this direction. According to recent studies by Birzeit University in Ramallah (founded 1975) and An-Najah National University in Shechem (founded 1977), over 70% of Arabs, between the ages of 18-40, living in Yehuda and Shomron, want to permanently move out of Israel. I believe that it is our job to help these young people achieve their dreams by assisting them in any way possible – even with generous funds – to start their life in a new place. Why must we insist on occupying them? If they want to leave, let them go and prosper! As you know, over 95% of the terror attacks against Jews are from Arabs in exactly this age bracket; 18-40… so if 70% want to leave, Wadaea'an Iilaa Al'Abad! (Translation: Goodbye forever!)

By the way, please don't think that this article is being written in a sarcastic way. That is not my intention at all. I really believe that the Arabs are occupiers. They are occupying large amounts of land in the Galilee, huge amounts in the Negev and enormous amounts in Yehuda and Shomron. This occupation prevents Jews from using these fields for agriculture, stops the growth of many towns and drains the Israeli economy from tremendous resources in both money and manpower just to provide security. Who needs this "dreaded occupation", as leaders of the Left always say? Does the world love us because we allow the Arabs to occupy our Land?

Our Father in Heaven gave us a gift 50 years ago. The city of Jerusalem was united! All lands west of the Jordan – which contains 93% of the places mentioned in the Bible – were liberated! Syria was defeated and the Golan Heights was returned! (Could you imagine what would be going on there – right now – if they had the Golan??) What Israel needed to do at that exact moment was establish full Israeli law over every inch of those holy lands. Instead, we let the Arabs grow and prosper and occupy more land each day. The Arab occupying force gained strength, became much more violent and made life difficult for millions of people. The time has come for all this to end.

As we celebrate 50 years since the Six Day War, with all the wonderful things that came with it, the time has come to correct one major mistake. We need to end the occupation. Please email this article to all my buddies in Berkeley and Columbia Universities. Tell them that they have finally convinced me. Call Yariv Oppenheimer of Peace Now and Jeremy Ben-Ami of J Street and tell them that a miracle has occurred; Shmuel Sackett has agreed to end the occupation. It's over. No more war, no more bloodshed. The horrible 50 year occupation must end now. Shalom.
