Palestinian Youth Movement's Anti Israel Maersk Protest outside NYPL

 ** While the media deals with the attack on President Trump,
the anti Zionist movement does not rest. **

'The through line of anti-Semitism for thousands of years has been the denial of truth and the promotion of lies. These lies range in scope from conspiracy theories to Holocaust denial to the blood libel to the currently popular claims that Zionism is racism, that Jews are settler colonialists, and that Jewish civilization isn’t indigenous to the land of Israel.

These lies are all part of the foundational big lie: that anti-Semitism itself is a righteous act of resistance against evil, because Jews are collectively evil and have no right to exist.

Today, the big lie is winning," Dara Horn writes.  [The Atlantic]

"US-Israeli genocide on Gaza, and the launch of a new arms embargo campaign, Mask Off Maersk"

"....68 percent of Israel’s weapons are sent from the US via logistics companies like Maersk."

Cut Ties With GENOCIDE:
CUT TIES WITH MAERSK

The Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM) members Aisha Mansour and Celine Qussiny plan to "force Maersk to stop the transportation of arms to Israel by isolating Maersk’s Israel portfolio from its overall bottom line."

Maersk is  a leading shipping company in Denmark.

"From May 24 to May 26, thousands of students, workers, organizers, and people of conscience gathered from around the world to attend the People’s Conference for Palestine. Convening in Detroit, Michigan, home to one of the largest Arab diasporas in North America, the union town was the perfect host to a weekend brimming with revolutionary energy where participants and speakers shared ideas, assessed tactics, and strategized for a free Palestine."

 FOUR VIDEOS with two speakers. They reveal a lot about the indoctrination of this anti-Israel /anti-U.S. youth movement.

Video 1: Lots of chanting ALWAYS before anyone speaks as both sides gathered.

Having learned from Nerdeen Kiswani, one of their leaders who never relents, neither do the youthful members of the PYM.

 “We don’t want zionists in Palestine, NYC, our schools, on the train, ANYWHERE,” Nerdeen Kiswani, founder of Within Our Lifetime, wrote on X. “This is free speech, it is saying we don’t want racists here.” (Nerdeen Kiswani)

If only they were capable of hearing and seeing the crimes of HAMAS that murdered and kidnapped so many innocents. But, these students are now cold-blooded racists, part of the legacy of the falafelstin terrorists.

This was not resistance
THIS was TERRORISM.

The October 7 girls. RIP, sweet angels

No Palestinian Consulate in Jerusalem -

Nov 10, 2021 -10 am
Outside NYC Israeli Consulate

 "A large group of dedicated activists gathered together across from the Israeli consulate in midtown Manhattan to show solidarity with our Israeli brethren who were simultaneously staging their third vigil with 20 other organizations to halt the opening of the Agron Street mission in Jerusalem."

 

 THERE IS ONLY ONE JERUSALEM!!
AFSI’S URGENT VIGIL IN NEW YORK CITY WAS HELD
SIMULTANEOUSLY WITH THE SOVEREIGNTY
MOVEMENT IN JERUSALEM.

Establishing an American consulate for the "Palestinian Authority" in Jerusalem is the de facto partition of the city and its transformation into the capital of "Palestine". (Yehudit Kastover and Nadia Matar)

 "Israeli Society is a friend of the American people. This is not something that one does to friends. We call upon the American administration -- if it is so urgent for you to open as special consulate for the "Palestinians" --- open it in Ramallah, not in Jerusalem."[Im Tirtzu CEO Matan Peleg]

US Turns Against Israel At UN

"Granting “Palestinian” “refugees” the right to return to Israel would be the end of Israel as a Jewish state. Furthermore, the issue of “Palestinian” “refugees” is a complete fallacy. A lie that has been perpetuated by the Palestinian Authority and the UN to destroy Israel.

 

The Biden Administration has been attacking Israel relentlessly as of late. However, it’s recent attacks against Israel is not surprising. Any honest person knew that the Biden Administration would be overtly hostile to the State of Israel. Just like the Obama Administration." [The Geller Report]

Tell Biden and Company
Jerusalem is the Eternal Capital of Israel.
SUPPORT A UNITED JERUSALEM!

Anti-Zionists Protest Israel Philharmonic at Carnegie Hall - again

October 25th, 2017, the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra (IPO)
gave a concert & gala at Carnegie Hall. This was fantastic, yes?

Nope. These anti-Israel / anti-Zionist groups did not agree.

They organized ANOTHER anti-Israel protest outside Carnegie Hall
aimed at de-legitimizing the State of Israel. AGAIN.

Each year, anti-Zionists return to protest the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra [IPO]
(For previous IPO Carnegie Hall protests, follow links to 2011 and 2012.)

Fortunately, their lies and hateful anti-Semitism did NOT go unchallenged.

The Jewish Defence League and other Zionists were there to "Stand Up For Israel"
"Stop the lies" and "Stop the hate!"

AM YISRAEL CHAI!

Flickr Slide show of both sides:

Some anti-Israel protest chants compliments of Adalah NY and the other anti-Zionists.

Protest musical accompaniment - OUTSIDE Carnegie - was provided by the eponymous, Rude Mechanical Orchestra. [Facebook]

Adalah, however, remains OFFENDED the IPO representing the State of Israel across the world. "Let the IPO know that apartheid is out of tune."

"It (the IPO)", says Adalah, "serves as a cultural ambassador for the State of Israel, playing a public role in the official Israeli propaganda campaign. Brand Israel uses art and music to distract attention from Israel's human rights 'abuses' and 'ethnic cleansing' of the 'Palestinian' people."

Adalah claims that, "the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra is not an apolitical cultural institution."

"We (Adalah and other anti-Zionists) are responding to the call from 'Palestinian' civil society to boycott cultural institutions that are complicit in Israel’s 'systematic repression' of the Palestinian people living under Israeli 'military occupation' in the West Bank and Gaza Strip as unequal citizens in Israel or as refugees denied their right of return to their homeland."

BTW- Adalah (the protest host for the evening) was connected in 2007 to the infamous Intifada NYC T-shirt .

Former Brooklyn Principal, Debbie Almontaser, defended the t-shirts, telling the NY Post that "intifada" meant "shaking off" that the shirts represented women "shaking off" oppression. .... Peace be upon you ....

And now, the REAL STORY behind the Israel Philharmonic and its ORIGINS:
"Since its inception in 1936, the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra has been dedicated to presenting exceptional music to audiences in Israel and throughout the world. From its inaugural concert, conducted by Arturo Toscanini, world-renowned soloists and conductors have performed with the IPO.

On December 26, 1936, the Palestine Symphony played its first concert in Tel Aviv under the baton of Arturo Toscanini. A staunch anti-Fascist, the legendary conductor enthusiastically accepted Huberman’s request to join the Symphony as a demonstration against Nazism, declaring, “I am doing this for humanity.”

"The public reception to this inaugural performance was overwhelming, with crowds standing outside near the windows and even climbing on rooftops in an attempt to hear the Symphony. The ovation at the end of the night lasted over 30 minutes."

"The IPO is Israel’s foremost cultural ambassador and travels throughout the world, particularly to countries where there is little or no Israeli representation. In some cases, performances of the IPO are the only example of Israel’s existence."

"The goodwill created by these tours, which included historic visits to Japan, Argentina, Poland, Hungary, Russia, China and India, is of enormous value to the State of Israel."

Unfortunately, the anti-Israel protests never stop; good-will be damned.

NEXT WEEK, on Thursday, November 2, I found two more anti-Israel events. FYI: November 2nd, 2017 marks the 100 year anniversary of the Balfour Declaration.

"At 5:30 pm, outside Israeli Embassy at 42nd St and 2nd Ave, a rally to "protest 100 years since the Balfour Declaration, to protest 100 years of colonization", hosted by NYC Students for Justice in Palestine . The SJP claims that the Balfour Declaration was the first step toward the objective of political Zionism. [FaceBook]

They will gather to protest the continued occupation of "Palestine" by Israeli Zionist forces."

NYC Students for Justice in Palestine
Committee to Stop FBI Repression NYC
American Muslims for Palestine - NJ Chapter
Religious Center · Nonprofit Organization
Jews for Palestinian Right of Return
Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network
NY4Palestine
Al-Awda NY: The Palestine Right to Return Coalition

Also, at the United Nations, on November 2, 2017, from 3 PM - 4:30 PM, "100 yrs of the Balfour Declaration and impact on Palestinians" · Hosted by United Nations Division for Palestinian Rights.

The LIES Never Stop.

"The United Nations Palestinian Rights Committee cordially invites you to a lecture on the Balfour Declaration and the impact it has had on the Palestinian people. The lecture will be delivered by Professor Rashid Khalidi, the Edward Said Professor of Modern Arab Studies at Columbia University and director of the Middle East Institute of Columbia's School of International and Public Affairs in the ECOSOC Chamber of the United Nations Secretariat in New York. It will bring together a broad range of participants, including members of the diplomatic community in New York, UN staff members, representatives of civil society organizations and the general public."[FaceBook]
