“Repression Breeds Resistance” LONG LIVE THE INTIFADA

 

Nerdeen Kiswani and Within Our Lifetime
Flooding NYC for GAZA


"We call on all those who stand with Palestine to take
to the streets
to collectively demand an end
to U.S. sponsored genocide in Gaza.

“Repression Breeds Resistance”
LONG LIVE THE INTIFADA

Sept 2, 2024. Labor Day in the U.S.

Within Our Lifetime posted on Twitter-X that their Labor Day action was to raise awareness about work place discrimination in the tech and health care industries against employees who support the "palestinian" people. [Nurse fired in NYC for wearing pali flag]

Open in New Tab to enlarge next poster for a
closer
look at who endorsed this action

Extinction Rebellion NYC was one of the surprise participants that joined the coalition

Led by Nerdeen Kiswani of Within Our Lifetime  ..... to oppose genocide in Palestine ...
she repeats endlessly that the palis are the VICTIMS of ZIONISTS.

 .There were also Communist orgs
(at least two that I saw) recruiting.

."The RCA (Revolutionary Communists of America) is a party of class-fighters committed to the overthrow of capitalism. We fight for a world of superabundance and reject the artificial scarcity of a system based on the pursuit of profits. We fight to establish a workers’ government to tackle the roots of war, inequality, oppression, and climate catastrophe."

As we remember today's meme  (some light reading)
"Repression Breeds Resistance"
LONG LIVE THE INTIFADA!

W.O.L. published a series of posters detailing accusations of criminal actions by the NYPD (a tool of Israel) against the the Palestinian Liberation Movement. (approx 10 seconds a slide/ pause video to read more info)

 

.“Israel is comparable to ISIS, just like how they (ISIS) hijacked Islam. And so we know Israel is a terrorist state. Israel’s a genocidal state. Israel is a colonial project and Palestinians will only get justice when Israel ceases to exist” WOL founder Nerdeen Kiswani said to the crowd on Labor Day. (always long winded, this vid is approx 17 minutes of agitprop)

 

 Note to @WOLPalestine's @Nerdeen Kiswani & her lackeys: If Israel ceased to exist, Hamas would rule & there would be no justice for Palestinians.

Flickr Slide Show Part 1, begins with posters that were put up and then quickly torn down by the palis

."The protesters carried Palestinian, Syrian, Iranian, and Hezbollah flags, one man waved a banner emblazoned with the images of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar and PFLP general secretary Ahmad Sa’adat. The logo on the banner belonged to the Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network, a PFLP-tied NGO."

Flickr Slide Show Part 2 exposing more of the dangerously pathetic misdirection of so many tools....

Flood NYC For Gaza Part 2

.There is no shortage of radical propaganda
aimed at these gullible followers.

“Zionism is the Catastrophe”
Seven months and seventy-six years of Nakba

Wondering why: "Meta, the owner of Facebook and Instagram, shut down the Instagram account of WOL in early February.  In early July, Meta also shut down the Instagram account of the Samidoun Palestinian Political Prisoner Network, and in the last week shut down the accounts for Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine, and NYU’s People’s Solidarity Coalition."  ("VICTIMIZED" this time by META? )

From NY War Crimes Newszine
[https://newyorkwarcrimes.com/zionism-is-the-catastrophe]

"People are still either failing or refusing to grasp that this genocide is equally the product of US imperialism and Israeli democracy."

This is how you mis-direct the 20 somethings and more... including the PRESS...   with rinse / repeat- over and over: as they complain and DICTATE that the only genocide is against GAZA.

'' Those in power have doubled-down, sending more money and more weapons to the Zionist entity. The seemingly intractable appears at once daunting and hallucinatory, personally painful too, for those in our movement whose families and friends have spent their long October transmitting fear and rage from America’s extermination camps. If there is any solace to be found it is in those dreams and words and rockets that have remodeled the land — 76 years of assembly and disassembly, 76 years too long, but also proof that with Gaza as the heart, there will be courage and with Gaza as the eyes, the aim will be true.''

World Values Network presented "A Night To Honor Israel" in Times Square



 

 

July 31, 2024, Times Square, World Values Network presented "A Night To Honor Israel". This was the first major celebration of the @IDF in the United States since October 7.

 

There were lots of police since the usual hostile opposition was across Bdway; full of 'righteous' fury at the death of Haniyeh.

According to Hamas he was killed by a "Zionist raid" on their residence. FYI: Ismail Haniyeh was the political leader of Hamas. WAS.


But spirits at the Night to Celebrate Israel were full of hope and prayers and THANKS for the IDF. Am Yisrael Chai.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Former IDF Spokesman Jonathan Conricus, was the main speaker..."the Israeli army’s most famous and accomplished global spokesman, Lt.-Col. (ret.) Jonathan Conricus, whom we all watch in astonishment nearly every night on CNN, FOX, and MSNBC as he defends Israel’s warriors with eloquence, facts, and courage . [JPost]

 

FYI: The IDF  is mislabeled as the IOF by the pali leftists: I...O...F... Israel Occupation Forces or Israel Offensive Forces, pejorative terms for the Israel Defense Forces in "Palestine."

Flickr Slide Show From the Pro Israel side:

A Night to Defend Israel Part 2

Of course BRING THEM HOME is always on everyone's lips, the parents of Gaza IDF hostage Omer Neutra (22),

But the Palis (and friends) remain nasty and rude: hateful. Pali protesters held a portrait of terrorist leader Ismail Haniyeh while setting off red and green smoke bombs.

They waved the flags of Hamas and Hezballah, wore the head bands that sported the same colors of these terrorist groups, while screaming , chanting and banging on metal and drums.

Obnoxious and RUDE.

NYPD’s Strategic Response Group (SRG) and the bike unit were lined up in front of the pro-Pali protesters.

Lots of Police:

WOL's leader, Nerdeen Kiswani was leading the pali agitators, easily seen by standing on a public trash box.

Oddly, the NYPD arrested a protester for standing on that same trash box, not sure what that violation would have been since they left Nerdeen alone ... and others.

 

It was a popular trash box

A Night to Defend Israel Part 1

https://www.flickr.com/photos/pamelahall/albums/72177720319392063

Video: On the Israel side, Sal Sinatra, an entertainer, addressed both sides of the avenue.  He spoke of a peace he felt could be attainable. But, listening to the venom spewed from across Bdwy, it seems doubtful.  (video excerpted)

 

" (Sal Sinatra) ..... a Palestinian-American whom I met at an incredible play about the Eichmann trial at the Center for Jewish History who diffused a protest against Israel that would have ruined the play. He told me that although he is a proud Palestinian who disagrees with many Israeli policies, he believes that Israel belongs to the Jews. It’s a tiny country, and he has no idea why his Palestinian brethren would deny the Jews a match-stamp size of a country. “You’re speaking at our rally!” I told him. He immediately agreed."  Rabbi Schmulley [https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-812553]

Some disturbing after affects :

The pali brigade lets no opportunity go to waste as they claimed to be the VICTIMS to a post-protest confrontation. They filed assault charges against the 2 Jews who did not instigate this exchange as the video shows.

Followed by Nerdeen Kiswani and her thugs the pro-Israel pedestrians were taunted with, "We don't WANT NO ZIONISTS HERE"

 

NO FAIRNESS HERE!  It would seem the Muslim lobby is controlling the press, and the legal system, with threats of chaos  .... and it seems to be working since a web of lies ignored the ASSAULT.

The crowd of pali-muslims (and friends) pelted the 2 pedestrians with FULL water bottles. As videos show, the woman was forced to protect themselves with pepper spray while the man deflected bottle-missiles until they were able to get way from the assault.

YET, the police arrested the woman for protecting herself. Whoever is calling the shots has ignored all the evidence and is accusing the Jewish victims of assaulting the Muslims. Manipulating press and passersby to create a very false narrative that the Jews were the bad-guys. SHAME SHAME on NYC.

Some Final Thoughts from Rabbi Schmulley
[https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-812553]

 "How did Times Square become Gaza City and Rafah? And how did the Jews allow it? what is our excuse in New York City, where we out-number our Muslim brothers and sisters perhaps 100-to-one?

..our Arab brothers and sisters, always cognizant of what constitutes the most powerful of all PR coups (and boy are they experts at it!), have made Times Square their home

if you’re wearing a yarmulke, or a Star of David, you are a magnet and an immediate target. Stand for a few minutes and, like bees to the honey, it will begin. “Free Palestine.” “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.” And, more occasionally but all too common, “Death to Israel.”  

No way No How.
Am Yisrael Chai!!

Support for Israel & Yom Hazikaron-Times Sq 5/13/24

 Saturday, May 13, 2024. Times Square.

The massacre in Israel by HAMAS, on October 7, 2023, was the reason for everyone gathering this day: freeing the hostages and honoring the sacrifices of the IDF who have  gone in to GAZA to recover the hostages and determined to ELIMINATE HAMAS.

This declaration resonated amongst the tears : ISRAEL WILL PREVAIL.

FLICKR Part 1 of 2 of the Yom Hazikaron memorial

Support for Israel Part 1 Times Sq 5/13/24

FLICKR Part 2 includes pictures of the candle lighting

Support For Israel Part 2 Times Sq 5/13/24

VIDEOS Mort Klein National President of ZOA ( Zionist organization of America) was the Keynote speaker. (excerpted in three parts) Unfortunately a woman in the front of the crowd SCREAMED through so much of his speech that some of it was obliterated by her screaming. Got most of it, though.

Part 1. (2:42) Great intro "We are PROUD Zionists!" As he continued with important historical facts,"There is no occupation" and "Everyone knew Palestinians meant Jews."

 

Part 2 (3:09) . "We Must DESTROY Hamas and Hezbollah." "It is an outrage that Biden is defending and protecting Hamas."  "The insanity of a CEASEFIRE. There is no ceasefire in wars ... You fight until victory" (sorry for messy camera work, lots of activity going for crowd shots)

 

Part 3 (3:43) "Stop lying about Israel."  "Start telling the TRUTH about the Hamas-Nazis." "We will prevail."



**
Prof. Alan Dershowitz (didn't catch his whole speech) but was impressed with what I heard.
Part 1
(2:48) ''This is the season to defeat HAMAS. This is the season for total victory"

 

Part 2 (3:22) he criticized the loss of academia to the marxist left. (like Kathy Boudin , Bernadine Dohrn and Bill Ayers)

 

.More on Kathy Boudin from her  mournful comrades at Social justice "Truthout": " Kathy survived the Greenwich Village townhouse explosion that took the lives of three of our dear comrades on March 6, 1970, and we were — all of us — on the run in a flash. In the wake of that catastrophe, we worked to build an organization and a network that would take the war to the war-makers, act in solidarity with the Black freedom movement, and survive what we saw as an impending American fascism. That’s a long and winding story in itself.

Eleven years later, Kathy was arrested in Nyack, New York, for the attempted armed robbery of an armored car in which a guard and two police officers were killed. She would go on to spend 22 years in a New York State prison."

AND THEN she was welcomed (and later mourned) by Columbia University's Center for Justice."Celebrating the life and mourning the loss of our co-founder and co-director Kathy Boudin."

COLUMBIA University, instead, locks out Jewish Professors

(4:32) Lighting memorial candles video and honoring the IDF:

 

 

(00:30) Short video clip of prayers as I was leaving.

 

Later, there was a concert with music and dancing. The video as the crowd shared their tears and joy; pride and determination.Thanks to Ronen Levy for the video (1:58)

 

UPDATE to DAY 228. On May 17, the bodies of 3 hostages were returned to their families. [https://www.timesofisrael.com/idf-recovers-bodies-of-hostages-itzhak-gelerenter-amit-buskila-and-shani-louk-in-gaza/]

BUT, the return of 128 living hostages remains locked down by HAMAS. They will not let them go.

Could you do it. Could any of us? Locked in a dark tunnel. Could you bear it? IMPRISONED by violent terrorists for SEVEN and A HALF MONTHS! This is INHUMAN.

Reposted from @bringhomenow The video of the female observers’ abduction, is a wake-up call to the civilized world. We must condemn those actions and we can not abandon the hostages held captive for 229 days.

This video, captured by the body cameras of Hamas terrorists on October 7th, has been edited and censored to exclude the most disturbing scenes, such as the numerous murdered young men and women at the Nahal Oz base and inside the bomb shelter from which the female observers were taken.  '

 

Where is the RED CROSS. WHERE is the U.N. WHERE is the UNITED STATES? Where are the women of the Me,too movement: Susan Sarandon do you still claim this is a MYTH? SHAME ON ALL OF YOU.

''The Israeli government and the international community can’t waste another moment – we must get back to the negotiation table today!”

On Day 227, Rachel Herman spoke as she has done since October 7th, of the PAIN and anger while waiting for the release of the hostages.
"Let My People F*cking GO NOW!!!"


From the NY Post:

''For Jews in America and around the world, Israel represents a thriving land of survival and opportunity, and not only for my people. Nowhere else in the Middle East are those of all races, religions, sexes and sexual orientations welcome to live in peace and prosperity. Now the dream is dying — thwarted by people who’d like nothing better than to see Israel wiped from the map.

It’s a sad day across the United States and abroad as whiny, privileged college students and thrill-seeking provocateurs, egged on by leftist professors, the “mainstream” news media and numbskull politicians, foment pro-terrorist, anti-Jewish violence.

They prove, once again, that no place is safe for Jews.'' [Andrea Peyser]

It's time to stand up to terrorism, wherever it rears its UGLY head: THE TIME IS NOW.

Do NOT back down and ISRAEL WILL PREVAIL.

AFSI hosts members of Druze Community from Israel (2-18-15) video/pics

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 2015 - NYC
afsi logo
AFSI (Americans For A Safe Israel)  hosted an enlightening evening with members of the Druze community from Israel. We met in an intimate setting of a NY apartment with introductions by Judy Freedman Kadish of AFSI
DSC_9068 copy
Most of the presentation was lead by a man whose name I do not have. (He says his name quickly in the video.) A retired IDF Colonel and also an Israeli Druze. To begin, he explained what it means to be a Druze. Some will say that the Druze are a sect of Islam, in his explanation he says this is not so. (I'm sure there is much that can be discussed on this topic, but that was not discussed here)
DSC_9073 copy
Later on we heard from Koftan Halabi, chairman and founder of the Druze Veterans Association . Importantly, they shared how committed they are to Israel.
DSC_9132 copy
We also met the 21 years old widow of Zidan Saif, Rinal. Her husband was the brave Druze police officer who, in November 2014,  gave his life trying to protect the Jews who were murdered in a terror attack as they were praying in a synagogue in Jerusalem.
DSC_9082 copy
A member of Rabbi Levine's family was introduced. She offered her thanks to the family for Zidan's sacrifice.

" Saif, a 30 years old  traffic control inspector in the Jerusalem police, was one of the first two policemen to arrive at the scene to confront the two terrorists,. He left behind a wife, a four-months-old baby, parents and five siblings....
Master-Sergeant Zidan Saif sacrificed his life to save others and was murdered in the attack in Har Nof in Jerusalem."
Later, the Colonel led a very personable Q and A.
