Mahmoud Khalil did not commit any crime and supposedly he does not have a reputation of being particularly belligerent.
In the following video Abby Martin, renown investigative journalist of her The Empire Files podcasts, and who initiated her own lawsuit against Israeli/ Zionist Americanized repression on freedom of speech here in the United States, and won, interviews constitutional lawyer Mara Verheyden-Hilliard (Executive Director of the Partnership for Civil Justice Fund).
Mahmoud Khalil & the Coup Against Democratic Rights
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6y3KH7jhXeE&t=87s
In reference to the all-encompassing, exceedingly over-bloated, catchall bugaboo phrase “combatting antisemitism” Verheyden Hilliard said:
“… this is the continuing effort to equate criticism of Israel with antisemitism … as a legal leverage point, to then say, both, that anyone who is engaged in criticism of Israel or the U.S. backed war on the Palestinian people, in genocide, is engaged in antisemitic activity … but they want to take it a step further … what they want to say now is people who call for a ceasefire, people who have stood in solidarity with Palestinians to have freedom and liberation, and be against oppression are somehow, quote, aligned with Hamas … that was what the Administration used [slight rewording here] essentially equating anyone in the United States who was calling for ceasefire and Hamas was calling for a ceasefire, or if you were calling for freedom and liberation of the Palestinians and Hamas was calling for the same, that somehow, in their minds, equals making someone potentially ‘excludable’ … of course it is not excludable to advocate for peace but that is what they are trying to do.”
Then another noteworthy statement follows with Abby Martin relating:
“… I want to comment on Khalil’s character … quoting fellow student activist Mariam who posted: “Mahmoud Khalil did everything the administration wanted, he was unmasked, he was extremely tactful, he was kind, patient, even to those who dehumanized him, he always stayed rational and calm, he was a lead negotiator precisely because of these qualities, he extended grace to those who didn’t deserve it, and the fact that the Trump Administration did not single out someone who actually used inflammatory rhetoric or engaged in violence, but actually singled out Khalil—do you think this is a trial balloon … there us a lot hinged on this, is this an unprecedented case?””
[Note as well, this recognition of a witness essentially claiming Khalil was ‘dehumanized,’ because throughout the many, many pro-Israeli complaints recognized by the powers-that-be on campus, and especially in NYC and national media, there is almost nothing described as anti-Muslimism, anti-Palestinianism, be it verbal abuse or violence. How is this equation so seemingly one-sided?]
Nevertheless, this 17-minute video pretty much sums it up. What more is there really to say? Certainly, justice will prevail, except for the fact there seems to be a great deal of disinformation to address as well. Take for example, this next video and comments on the same defendant, also postulated by a supposed constitutional lawyer but who makes a very different case:
Alan Dershowitz’s HORRIFIC Statement About Mahmoud Khalil
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwoIXmEd_Bo
“… He [Khalil] certainly committed a lot of moral offenses, he is a despicable, horrible person, he should be kept away from his wife … he supported Hamas killing of Israeli children … he is not someone who should be admired or supported …”
To which Ana Kasparian responds:
“Rich coming from Alan Dershowitz, if there is anyone in the country from which you should hear about, you know, moral issues it is from Alan Dershowitz … he isn’t exactly the best arbiter as to what is, and what isn’t moral …”
[referring to allegations that not only was he Jeffery Epstein’s lawyer, but he has been accused of having sex with at least one of Epstein’s underaged sex-slaves]:
Alan Dershowitz called for the release of Epstein court documents. In them, Virginia Giuffre alleges they had sex at least 6 times
But supposedly later she said:
Epstein Survivor Says Accusation Against Alan Dershowitz May Have Been ‘Mistake’
Who knows? Seems kind of crazy to have initially made all those accusations, and six times, but now you are not sure? A bit baffling.
Still, given all of Dershowitz’s distortional accuse-making for Israeli government over the years (as he has equally been playing Israel’s lawyer) it is obvious this man has a refined capacity for negating reality, and of course siding with innocent clients, as in his mind, Israel can do no wrong, whereas, protestors, to whom he does not even really know, are so obviously prone to being stained with “moral turpitude.”
No legalese here, mind you. Rich, yes, rich in hypocrisy indeed—by the truckload.
And while the left, or the supposedly liberal-minded, with more liberal Democrats now jumping on board this Palestinian cause, and using this meme of “Trump attack on free speech” as a wedge issue against the right, they are again, attempting to frame his administration crackdown on campus free speech, as primarily a right-wing, white, goyim, authoritarian cloud, again, in their minds, seeing white, male, goyim, Neo-Nazi, fascism everywhere, clamping down hard on Gotham city.
But the truth too is also a little richer. And once again, the Trump administration is greased with right-wing, Zionist and Jewish money and their puppet-mastery (yes along with more technocracy billionaires but their ultimate goal works for Israeli electronic surveillance on the world).
This 1st Amendment crackdown, if you will, is taking place in the most Jewish of cities, namely New York City, and on one of the most Jewish of campuses across the entire country, namely Columbia University, and yet due to their prolific and elaborate scheming by way of mind-manipulation, we the naïve public, are supposed to believe pro-Israel, Jewish students are more threatened there in New York, according to all their complaints about so many ‘vile’ acts, threats and innuendos, they supposedly have been subject on campus, than practically anywhere else in this entire country with 50 states, and thousands of campuses.
Microsoft Bing AI announces:
“There are approximately 2,832 four-year colleges and 1,582 two-year colleges in the United States. These institutions include both public and private colleges and universities that primarily grant undergraduate and graduate degrees.”
https://nces.ed.gov/fastfacts/display.asp?id=1122
Let’s be clear then, there are a lot, of both left-wing, pro-Palestinian Jews, and right-wing pro-Israel, or pro-Zionist Jews in the New York City area, and both groups attending New York campuses, and equally comprising University professorial teaching staff, as well as equally comprising respective alumni, such as some Jewish alumni who have been actively engaged in trying to close down free speech at Columbia University (while others oppose).
From the Columbia student newspaper:
In leaked messages, members of ‘Columbia Alumni for Israel’ group chat work to identify, punish pro-Palestinian protesters: Members circulated a petition advocating for the firing of a dean and an email template discouraging companies from hiring pro-Palestinian student activists.
“As protesters and administration continued to negotiate the terms of the meeting, unrest was bubbling in a “Columbia Alumni for Israel” WhatsApp group chat. In messages obtained by Spectator, members demanded to disclose the protesters’ identities.”
““Are the names of the terrorists being kept confidential?” a member of the group chat asked in a message obtained by Spectator.”
[Note: Realize some Jewish alumni are ‘automatically’ labeling anti-genocide protestors as ‘terrorists’ (in the same vein as Dershowitz)! Whereas, few, to no one, seems to be labeling the IDF, Israeli government, or the U.S. government officials as terrorists! “Imagine my shock!” (like what Paul Joseph Watson habitually and emphatically enounces). Incidentally, he Paul J. Watson, has a recently video on the free speech crackdown in Germany, see:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCg_iIsba5k
and in this video, he refers to Vice President J.D. Vance’s warning to European states about their crackdown on free speech—and of course nothing too rich and creamy here mind you.]
Meanwhile, from on of the more balanced newspapers of Israel we can read:
‘We Refuse to Be Used’ | Jewish Columbia Alumni Pen Letter Against ‘Illegal’ Detention of pro-Palestinian Activist Mahmoud Khalil:
“A letter signed by 120 Jewish graduates of the Ivy League school accuses Trump of ‘cynically exploiting Jewish feelings of vulnerability’ to justify his assault on their alma mater. Another letter from a coalition of Jewish groups also expressed deep concern…”
And not too surprising some comments to this Haaretz article are equally rich with irony and the clash within Jewish civilizations, the first one now noting:
Alik
“”Hadar Susskind, president and CEO of New Jewish Narrative, warned that the administration is using the language of fighting antisemitism to justify political repression. “President Trump is dressing up his assault on free speech and due process as if it was about fighting antisemitism. That is a lie,” he said.”
In fact, many more of us gentiles should peer into various tomes on Middle Eastern studies, in all of its flavors, but such a debate, between Jews themselves, can be revealing, as another commentator retorts:
Lisa
“Out of the many thousands of Jewish Columbia graduates only 120 signed this petition in a virtue signalling exercise as ‘the good and noble Jews’ protecting free speech. On a very surface level it might appear the underlying issue is protecting free speech, but it is not. It is recognising hate speech, incitement to violence and intolerance masquerading as humanitarianism. And this charade, these staged Anti Israel productions, are funded by Islamist producers in Qatar and Iran. The main actors tend to be ‘visiting’ students and professors brought in as part of a deal whereby our North American universities get billions in dollars in return for this outside infiltration of Sh_t Disturbers who rally and recruit young people looking for a cause, because they are so young, inexperienced and malleable.”
[Note: Sooner or later, upon examining more and more of these mostly internecine “Jew on Jew debates” (between their own brethren and blood) such as also at NYC campuses and Israeli newspapers, we do NOT see any real debate on people being truly violated in seriously deadly manners, such as college students being shot, beaten in bloody manner, bones being broken, cars smashing into crowds, etc., ambulances taking the wounded away, etc., (and guaranteed there would be photos documenting everything) despite all the hysteria we, nevertheless, encounter by Jewish students paraded out to cry to American politicians in Washington D.C. Rather their complaining is, by far, is articulated claims of feeling intimidated, and various exaggerations on abuse using hyperbolic words like ‘vile’ or references to name-calling, etc., etc. Nevertheless, apparently, the hatred they subjectively experience is so undoubtedly and monumentally prevalent. No questions from the audience here. It is all factually divulged. End of case.]
Again, from the Haaretz comments blog:
“… Betar US ratted out Mahmud Khalil on fake charges supported by the Dean who is an ex -IDF “intelligence officer.”Last year university presidents lost their jobs because they did not “defend Jewish rights.”!!!”
Another:
“Zionist jews are allowed to harass Palestinians on campus, without accountability.”
Apparently then it is ok-kosher for one Jewish person to tell another Jewish person the obvious “Jews are allowed to harass Palestinians on campus without accountability;” but, guaranteed the Jewish students invited to report to U.S. Congress on such matters are not letting on to such an idea that pro-Palestinian, anti-genocide protestors are too getting harassed, or bombarded with chaos and fear-mongering antics as reality (and maybe a great deal more but do not expect to have their opinions matter in forums of the hallowed halls of Congress). Listen to this statement to Congress by Eden Yadegar, in what seems to be exaggerated fear-mongering if not unabashed poppycock:
Columbia student Eden Yadegar – Congressional hearing investigating antisemitism
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBE6fHUb5kY
SSI, or Students Supporting Israel, of which she is the class president, is but another of various special Jewish organizations that can be found on college campuses across the country, dedicated solely to guiding and supporting Jews, as is Hillel International (it too is primarily an organization meant to support Zionist values, Zionist politics and kosher propaganda).
Equally there is another organization at Columbia called Chabad. All three of these organizations are meant to instill Jewish religion, and a Israel-dominant value system in American Jews, and to some extent, all are involved in various levels of Israeli ‘hasbara” (explaining the propaganda) to the rest of the world.
So while this campus, with a high population of Jewish students, and three different organizations dedicated solely to their Jewish ethnicity, how many cultural organizations are found routinely on American campuses meant to buttress say, Muslim or Palestinian students (or for that matter any other ethnic group) especially physical building spaces where they can go to relax, hangout, and to be with and to interact with their own people in privacy, in their own spaces like meeting rooms and kitchens with dining rooms, etc.? A lot of gentile college students don’t have a tightknit social life and are rather working and going to school at the same time.
What other ethnic group even has the financial support to create such extra privileges and spaces, but if you listen to the likes of Eden Yadegar, student president of Columbia SSI, you would think Jewish students were so defenseless and hopeless on that campus.
Their big yelling cry is that the college does not ‘guarantee’ Jewish safety!!
Well does it guarantee other students’ safety? Can it?
No—rather this is grandstanding rhetoric meant to make a big deal impression to the gullible.
She starts out claiming “Jew hatred” drove her family to leave Iran and it now has become “normalized” here [in the United States or at least at Columbia]. But if you google “Jews in Iran” you can quickly learn plenty of Jews there, halfway across the world, are content and do not live up to American and Israeli propaganda of them being persecuted. Still, she has to qualify her victimhood.
Regardless, what matters is in the choice of her words, as read from a prepared script, “Jew hatred is pervasive in classrooms, across campus, in student groups and online” as she specifically refers to slogans like “Long live the Palestinian armed struggle” and shouts of “Free Palestine” (as in how this verbiage “stained our hub of Jewish life”) as if Columbia and Barnard campuses are somehow Jew’s special space or hub, but nevertheless feelings bothered by other peoples’ boisterous concerns. After all, if your peoples were being bombed into pulverized mashed up sponges and shot, tortured or starved, why should they ruin a quietus campus with their emotional makeups? Doesn’t seem reasonable.
Nothing hyperbolic here. Obviously “Free Palestine” can be interpreted as ruinous and wicked, so much so, it gets highlighted to Congress the words have transgressed one’s ears.
She goes on to say: “We are ostracized, mocked, harassed, assaulted, and scapegoated because of our identities.” And even if this were true to some level that she implies, it is still mostly (95%) psychological interpretation and much in the way of subjective. It is the same old cliché about how Jews are persecuted solely because they are Jews. Really, it is always about Jews and the threats you inevitably face in every situation.
It is frankly much to do about nothing bull bunk.
First off, this is primarily dissimulation or naivete, declared in loose and abstract terms. If Ms. Student President of Students Supporting Israel / Columbia had viable and concrete evidence of all this declared hatred, that she positively implies, she would be sharing it.
Look at the website on Students Supporting Israel and watch the two videos featured at its home page:
These people are very much in the game, and not just a cultural war but Israel’s war (irrespective of moral certitude). This is a chauvinism of belonging to one side of a battle. They are being motivated to act in the interest of what the Israeli government desires, irrespective of what is best for Americans and the United States. They are actively involved in counter-protesting and any related counter propaganda. This is not imagined. Their own videos spell it out.
Meanwhile, some argue pro-Palestinians are being led by foreigners (non-Americans), but many who protesting against genocide are being led instead by their ‘own’ sense of what is morally right.
Whereas SSI affiliates are demonstrating they too are filled with all manner of passion and drive (call it whatever label—one could propose ‘counter-hatred,’ and not be any less accurate as those who are constantly finger wagging the hate is from the opposition.
Who is to say what constitutes hatred when people are yelling for the freedom for others? It is simply disingenuous to point at one’s assumed enemies as evil, while donning the garb of angels and saints.
Are all we Americans so naïve as to buy these illusions?
With all your colleagues having cell phones capable of sophisticated capacity for recording audio and visual where is the proof Ms. Victim?
She and her many pro-Zionist friends don’t seem to have anything much. But we need to take her on her word?
Moreover, it so often ends up being about “Us Poor Jews, us eternal and powerless victims” (here in the United States) and not about real victims being massacred in war zones in which every form of war crime is being perpetrated.
From the Columbia student paper, Columbia Spectator quoting her from her congressional presentation:
The Jewish community is alone’: Columbia SSI president speaks at congressional roundtable: Eden Yadegar, GS/JTS ’25, spoke about antisemitic rhetoric, campus protests, and Jewish pride.
“We have been attacked with sticks outside of our library, we have been surrounded by angry mobs, and we have been threatened to, quote, ‘Keep fucking running,’” Yadegar said at the roundtable. “How many more times must it be proven that unreprimanded, violent rhetoric can lead to physical violence?”
It turns out ‘one’ person was hit with a supposed broom stick on his hand, reported in nebulous, half-professional, media reports from local media, none of which identify the victim, or any witnesses, and these online reports seem to be, at best, sketchy, regarding standards of journalism. One report with some semblance of asserted facts is from the Rupert Murdock owned New York Post (pro-Israeli of course):
Israeli student attacked with a stick outside Columbia University library:
https://nypost.com/2023/10/12/israeli-student-attacked-outside-columbia-university-library/
From this one accounting there is one incident of one ‘alleged’ story of one victim attacked by one person with one stick, a story that seems at best incomplete, leaving plenty question marks.
But in front of Congress this one attack gets reworded as denoting multiple victims hit by multiple assailants with multiple sticks, we later get her simple exaggeration vocalized at the hearing:
“… we have been beaten with sticks outside our library, we have been surrounded with angry mobs …”
It may sound nitpicking but this just shows how quickly the semantics of word choice can be used to distort reality, or attempt to change reality. When two, three, four or five little changed connotations add up they can give a significantly skewed view as to what is truth (as if no one really cared about this noun ‘truth’).
But in all due respect, in another Spectator report:
NYPD arrests three protesters, issues 12 with ‘disorderly conduct’ after pro-Palestinian rally that drew hundreds
“Noah Lederman, GS/JTS ’27, told Spectator that he and his roommate, Liam Schorr, GS/JTS ’27, attended the counterprotest and left when the counterprotest dispersed. Lederman said that around 5 p.m., he and Schorr started walking back to their dorm and passed by the moving protest on Broadway and 120th Street.”
“Lederman was wearing a shirt with an Israeli flag on it, he said. Lederman said that a protester in a keffiyeh and black backpack noticed Lederman’s shirt and then “slammed” Lederman into a building, “aggressively pinning me there” for “maybe a quarter of a minute” before Lederman got away.”
So yes, apparently, one or a few pro-Zionist counter-protestors did get attacked, and yelled at (or they alleged this to be so).
Nevertheless, this is not strictly a situation of only our own, or mostly pro-Zionists being attacked, rather this is a story of a major pro-Palestinian protest surrounded with ‘many’ NYPD personnel, who have a reputed history of being abusive and violent, while arresting people.
This was indeed a mob situation, not strictly a mob surrounding pro-Zionists, but a chaotic event in general, with city police called in to handle matters (as politically motivated—and as we understand the mayor receiving phone calls from, for example, wealthy, Jewish donors, and other powerful political types). And there was a known fact—outsiders were coming to get involved and to create disruption and negative repute.
Furthermore, this too could have easily been a situation of hired “agent provocateurs” dressed as college protestors (outsiders meant to deliberate create chaos and intentionally harm the real protestors reputation and political cause). Such covert and subterfuge events happen all the time.
For example, the putrid smell, sprayed on protestors, could easily have been bear spray. This would be one such tactic, just like how leftist Antifa rioters, attempting to stop certain people from being allowed to speak at college forums, were throwing balloons filled with urine and feces at rightwing protestors at previous campus rallies across the country.
What to know about ‘outside agitators’ cops say are co-opting Columbia protests
This is an important article to read. Here the NYC mayor, himself, says there are outside agitators causing trouble at campus protests (even though some pro-Zionist students and organizations are continuing to blame these troubles on pro-Palestinians students). No bias here.
And even if this was another event on another day, it was still at the same campus, and much of the same political dynamics were at play.
So, if you, reader, suspect the “politics of debate” is dabbling in the art of mind manipulation you would not be incorrect. The fact is there are many organizations and resources involved in manipulating the average person’s thought processes (or distracting them from thinking) about the realities in Israel and Palestine.
There are many organizations involved in trying to manipulate how people interpret reality.
For example, why did ‘not’ the U.S. Congress invite pro-Palestinian students to have their say about campus politics (why was this an invite to Jewish students? Because the other students could not afford to fly, drive or train to D.C?
Gee that seems awfully prejudicial?
But then we must remember that the United States Congress, and the White House (Biden to Trump and Democrats to Republicans) are actively engaged in aiding and abetting a blatant genocide in Gaza, by supplying Israel with massive amounts of weapons and money; and so they, en masse, have a real interest in both suppressing this reality, and in quelling any knowledge of this crime (the same crimes the protestors are yelling about).
This is to say they have a vested interest in destroying free speech on American campuses too, just as do some pro-Zionists, because certain factions of Israeli society are sponsoring and engaging these illegal activities. Equally a large segment of Israelis support the violence and ethnic cleansing.
Whereas those on the losing Democrat side of the equation, who simply want to pile these war crimes solely on Donald Trump and his white MAGA fascists, are equally being self-blindered. This is very much an AIPAC, ADL, Mossad, mainstream media, rich philanthropist class conspiracy, enhanced with all manner of formal and informal organizational support.
And while an overt manifestation of campus chaos comes to light in the news, as intended showcasing, there are behind the scenes mechanisms at play as well. So, yes, it is important to ask, and at least partially answer:
Who were the ‘outsiders’ at Columbia University’s Hamilton Hall?
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/investigations/outsiders-columbia-universitys-hamilton-hall-rcna150530
“A significant portion of those who broke the law and occupied Hamilton Hall were outsiders. While 14 were Columbia undergraduate students, the majority were a mix of adults, including graduate students, two employees, and outsiders unaffiliated with Columbia University.” …
“Overall, of the 112 people arrested at Columbia on Tuesday, 32 had no affiliation with the school, or 29%, according to the mayor’s office and the New York Police Department. Out of the 170 people arrested at the City College of New York, 102 people had no ties to the school, or 60%.”
Some of these people tend to be either government employees pretending to be criminally bent (such as x-military or law enforcement), or they may be professional bad boys for hire. Regardless they are there to act like tough thugs.
Gavin McInnes, Founder Of The Proud Boys, Seen On Columbia’s Campus On Wednesday
“Gavin McInnes, the founder of the Proud Boys, a militant group with connections to the January 6 insurrection, was seen on Columbia’s campus around 3 pm on Wednesday, April 24.”
What the Proud Boys Stand for, in the Founder’s Words | NowThis
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCIrVox7rME&t=134s
Listen to the video, and it’s pretty obvious what he advocates, fighting fire (violence) with fire (violence). His group, the Proud boys, seemingly evolved to answer left-wing, Soros financed, Antifa and Black Lives Matter violence some years ago.
[Note: Some far right, extremist, groups are actually financed and supported by government monies as in “covert operation” activities, such as some who attended the 2017 white supremacist rally in Charlottesville. Things are not always what they seem. The number of white, extremists are highly exaggerated by dubious nonprofits like the Southern Poverty Law Center (which is quite wealthy and another Jewish organization meant to single out white gentile fascists).
The January the 6th Trump rally event is a perfect example, in which covert agents dressed as everyday MAGA supporters, and then they proceeded to engage in violent and illegal breaking into the Capital building. These too are “false flag” operations meant to create impression management for naïve viewers. The whole January 6th event was really a staged event and Democrats should go to jail for such a criminal act of treason.
[And note too: this is not too different than the fact the United States and the Israeli governments actually funds and trains groups like Al Qaeda and ISIS (and some other terrorist groups) that they pretend to be against. Some of these offshoots are now killing Christian Alawites in what was once Syria. It is truly a nasty world.]
Whereas, the media presents many political events to news consumers, so they tend to think these are mostly spontaneous happenings (and we have already explored, in previous writings, some other Jewish organizations involved in trying to destroy free speech on America’s campuses—and they are elaborate, well established, and well-funded).
The huge talking point surrounds the reputation of Hamas. We here in the West with our manipulative media and Congress are supposed to simply take their word on such entities and of course we should not do any of our own research for fear things might not be as black and white-washed.
There has been a great deal of obfuscation and disinformation about the Hamas attack on Oct. 7th, 2023 from Israel and those who work for that government. Their lies were passively passed on to Americans by way of Jewish dominated mainstream media (and it is dominated by Jews regardless as to whether people want to label this assertion as antisemitism or not—frankly truth is not A-S—get over it—but they will not because they have too much to lose such as their exceptional status).
Later we also learned that members of Israeli intelligence were equally writing the news for American newspapers and TV consumption. This has already been worthily covered at Mint Press News.
It is very significant for the masses to understand the real goals of the current war on Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank are about disappearing the Palestinians altogether (one way or another).
Worldwide Zionist propaganda not only created false impressions to people around the world but to Jewish citizens in Israel as well. Therefore, the mass media, and alternative media, such as social media, really does play a gigantic role in how people think about what one can assume as truth, at least tentatively so, which is why there is so much concern about the Internet and alternative channels of communication.
And of course, this is why the ADL has been trying to get TikTok taken over by a Zionist-friendly company.
We still have a lot more to cover, starting with the idea of Israeli ‘hasbara’ and how their propaganda is shaped, standardized, and spread throughout the world, especially in the West. Google ‘hasbara’ and click on articles and videos.
[Note: this article is already getting long, yet the scope could cover a book length treatise. It is impractical to go into the detail of some of these linked references. It is incumbent upon readers to explore the links on their own, such as on ‘hasbara.’]
But here is one such title. The first paragraph below its long title and link lays out the backdrop:
The war that canonized America’s hasbara playbook: The defensive line taken by the American-Jewish establishment during the 1982 Lebanon invasion solidified many of the methods that are deployed when Israeli violence makes headlines today.
https://www.972mag.com/american-jews-israel-hasbara-lebanon/
“In 1984, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) began disseminating what it described as a “college guide” for understanding the discourse on Israel on U.S. campuses. “American college students are regularly exposed to bitter denunciations of the State of Israel in a way that most Americans are not,” warns the opening chapter of the booklet. It points to a “barrage of propaganda which is hostile not only to particular policies of a given government of Israel but also to the very right of the Jewish state to exist,” and which is, the authors continue, “designed to delegitimize the one viable democracy in the Middle East and America’s most reliable ally in the region.”
1984 was 40 years ago! There has been a long and elaborate science involved in world-wide evolving apparatuses to manipulate the public mind. It would be smart to checkout several articles and videos.
The important thing to grasp is that Israeli hasbara is ‘not’ about presenting truth into the daylight of rational reason and substantiated fact. Rather it is proof positive of the adage that “Truth is the First casualty of war.”
But somehow on American colleges and in Congressional chambers such a reality is not supposed to matter.
Moreover, hasbara is now involved in covering up huge and major war crimes, and in destroying the right to free speech in the United States and the West. For example, we already were invited to listen to a Paul Watson video discussing a free speech crackdown in Germany.

And yes, it may seem controversial that we may feel compelled to sometimes go to some Middle Eastern media sources to learn more about the truth. But we should not assume media from other countries is anymore suspect than media from the West.

Practice due diligence, and skeptical thinking regardless of the source.
As Ryan Cristian at his The Last American Vagabond (.com) constantly reiterates: “Question Everything.” He is, by the way, one of best real investigative journalist in the English-speaking language. Young fledging journalists would be wise to study his content, and his skeptical advice, and his cynical world-weary attitudes. There is something to be said for people who have already, and diligently, covered a lot of ground (that is if you are open to become disillusioned from the fog of lies suffocating our planet).
Again, to re-emphasize, previous articles have referred to several organizations devoted to specifically spying on U.S. campuses and/ or manipulating how Americans are conditioned to think. Now we look at more not yet covered.
The Combat AntiSemitism Movement CAM is (from their website) “Who we are:”
“With partnerships encompassing over 850 interfaith organizations, influential decision-makers, and a network of more than five million activists and 250 social media influencers CAM leads a united front against Jew hatred. Our vision is to forge an unbreakable shield that safeguards Jewish communities and all those impacted by hatred, ensuring that antisemitism, in any form, is eradicated from our society. We strive to create a world where every individual can live without fear of discrimination.”
“Our advocacy spans from town councils and state governments to national governments and the United Nations.”
“With a robust digital presence, we reach millions through digital campaigns, influencer partnerships, and an innovation lab that has nurtured over 50 projects from inception to fruition. CAM has established the largest network in the world of social media influencers to combat antisemitism, consisting of 250 members who collectively represent 260 million followers.”
One article on their website:
College Students Visiting Israel Trained to Fight Campus Antisemitism
Read their action plan: it is pretty eye-opening. They are essentially structured to dominate the American campuses and various state and federal governments with their pro-Zionist propaganda, for example:
“The F.A.C.E. Action Plan is an urgent response to the surge of campus violence and the erosion of student security, which jeopardizes the inclusive unity and safety that should define our university communities.”
It is a ten-step process. This is an important document to read. And after you read it ask yourself: “Do I really think pro-Zionist college students who are invited to make what seems like ethnocentric complaints about how unfair the world is to young Jewish college student in the United States, to members of the American Congress, would such oriented people generally be operating from a position of self-directed conscientiousness or mostly personal intuition, experience, and single-soul individualized naivete?
This seems kind of hard to believe. These organizations are serious and put forth much effort and money in creating them and their purposes.
And what about most gentiles living here in the States who seem the real dupes—having no, to little clue, to these elaborate organizations, their well-healed contributors, and dedication to putting Israeli goals above those of Americans? Think again.
Where did this elaborate and professional Report 2 come from:
COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY STUDENT EXPERIENCES OF ANTISEMITISM AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROMOTING SHARED VALUES AND INCLUSION TASK FORCE ON ANTISEMITISM
How much you want to bet average the gentile college student or other non-Jewish minority or foreigner person had much say in producing this, essentially a form of campus governance document?
Or what about this document: Combatting Antisemitism from the Office of the President of Columbia University:
https://president.columbia.edu/content/combatting-antisemitism
Do you think the language herein was agreed to by a plurality of diverse students from all walks of life?
Unlikely. There seems to be one minority that has all the clout and organized will be have made these forms of written authority essentially the law of the land (and they are not from home-spun gentile Americans who just happen to dominate the populations of all campuses across the country.
The so called “antisemitism canard” is being forced down everyone’s’ soul irrespective of whether they agree or not.
This has nothing to do with democracy. This is Zionist domination from the ADL to wealthy Jewish donors to all manner of special interest non-profits.
Meanwhile Israel is not a democracy and never has been. (Does this sound anti-Semitic?) Well, it is the truth.
Face it. Zionism has come to dominate the United States and to dismantle any idea of freedom, access to truth, the practice of liberty for a vast majority of people residing here.
Does the current Governor of the State of New York operate with the equanimity of fairness and impartiality?
Gov. Hochul orders CUNY remove Hunter College ‘Palestinian Studies’ job posting, calls for probe into ‘antisemitic theories
Are we supposed to believe a typical class called Palestinian Studies needs the scrutiny of every pro-Zionist zealot available for comment? How much scrutiny do Jewish Studies get here in America? How do we not know if their professors are teaching radical, dangerous of fallacious theories?
Moreover, who is impartial enough to decide? How about politicians who get hundreds of provocations and reminders from donors and Public Relations firms. You bet.
There is so much deceit within this crackdown on free speech that the entire controversy deserves to be institutionalized into looney tunes of mental hospitals providing plenty time for rehabilitation starting with “no access to media politics” for 24 months. This of course includes several members of the U.S. Congress and Zionist fanatics in the Trump cabinet including crazies like DOD head Pete Hegseth (the water carrying boy for the war criminal Netanyahu).
Trump’s entire cabinet is composed of Make Israel Great Again MIGA nut jobs. In the final analysis these people are simplistic ideologues who lost their capacities to think clearly decades ago.
And frankly they are dangerous, moreover, most of them are goy, Christian puppets who were selected by behind-the-scenes Jewish advisors who picked them primarily on their stated and proven records of putting the Israeli government’s priorities as their own.
They are treasonous creatures (including President Donald Trump himself) attempting now to hit the Jewish capital of the world, namely New York City, with his first round of wresting mania blitzkrieg maneuvers meant to take aim primarily at the brunt of leftist, Jewish contrarians who actually have the capacity to identity with the humanity and suffering of people who are not themselves Jewish, Zionist or Israeli.
And once these anti-genocide, lefty Jews are crushed the rest of the naïve and gentile world, mostly distracted by bread and circus, and entitled with the priveledge of naivete (sometimes naivete is a privilege because people often choose to remain ignorant on matters thought too distressful to think about) will be easily subdued since 90 percent already are so being distracted by sports and overeating. We are a culture of overweight and intellectually mediocres who daze away our time staring at iPhones.
Frankly the only chance America has is if enough leftist Jews come to their senses and realize this Zionist program with Netanyahu’s government is not good for anyone, and they start trying to wake up other people.
But then there is also Hillel International, previously alluded to, but they have their own Hillel Campus Climate Initiative
https://www.hillel.org/campus-climate-initiative/
“This flagship program provides a comprehensive strategy to help college and university presidents and campus administrators counter antisemitism, and build a campus climate in which Jewish students feel comfortable expressing their identity.”
Meanwhile, there are a lot of Caucasian, Christian, and white, gentile, secular Americans of European descent who do not exactly feel comfortable expressing their identities, thoughts, feelings, or concerns, and moreover are actively encouraged by Jewish professors, due supposedly by our innate white guilt to not assert our concerns, that must always take a back seat to the rainbow coalition, etc.
This could be a separate paper, but if you have any doubt, do a simple survey of study which types of people are being given teaching positions on American campuses. You will find a dearth of white, gentile men less than 40 years old, and this reverse racism has not been confined to college campuses over the last decades. It is just no one gives a rip to even think about.
Meanwhile the rest of this vast planet of people, with our mass gentility composing 95% of the population, are literally being overwhelmed by a minority (which controls billions of dollars, and who controls politicians, the media, and other the so-called stereotypes of Jews) and they are literally kicking the entire gentile world’s ass.
For what? To bring on their own crazy, maniacal version of their own Jewish End Times eschatology in which they think by some suasion of a supernatural God, or Yahweh, they have been selected to rule over the entire planet.
Who could have ever come to believe some Adonai would have been so partial to such a paranoid and fanatical, and frankly ethnocentric, people? It really makes one wonder.
Meanwhile, here is the best the rest of mankind has currently to offer in retort (a comedian) and funny for speaking truth to power:
AIPAC LIES, COLLEGE PROTESTS, & ANTISEMITISM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ACFNg2YVZJM
Thank goodness for comedy relief.
But good golly there are some counter voices trying to make a difference. Here is one such tread:
The New Jewish Narrative website
https://www.newjewishnarrative.org/statements/welcome-to-new-jewish-narrative
“That is why we have come together to reimagine our possibilities and reaffirm our commitments. Yes, we are building on powerful legacies, but we are building something new. We are building an institution that supports the vision of a progressive Israel that finally realizes the aspirations of its founding documents: “it will be based on freedom, justice and peace as envisaged by the prophets of Israel; it will ensure complete equality of social and political rights to all its inhabitants irrespective of religion, race or sex; it will guarantee freedom of religion, conscience, language, education and culture; it will safeguard the Holy Places of all religions; and it will be faithful to the principles of the Charter of the United Nations.”
Yes, welcome to humanity, and the study of Humanities, Jewish citizens of the world!! Amen.
And frankly some of the most effective and powerful voices out there are Jews who are not afraid to speak truth even if it goes against the grain of their heavy, cultural upbringing.
While many Jewish students are invited to go on free trips to Israel, and learn more about their supposedly real goal in life, namely to be positive about their real homeland in the Middle East, and to move there, but these so-called Birthright trips do not always get the best press within their own ranks.
Still no other ethnicity seems to have as much access to belong to a cultural identity and land mass.
And yet we still find truly independent Jewish voices, making big, courageous differences, some who have been penalized for their commitment to truth, such as Norman Finkelstein.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwMIQjxIV1g&t=57s
And as can be expected, the history of Hamas is more complex than what most of us Americans will ever likely know, so it is relatively easy to buy into to the prepackaged notion Hamas fighters are unequivocally terrorists whereas Israeli and United States military operations, and covert operations are mostly justified—but such assumptions are based on too much naivete.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYJFHtTYc0g&t=1045s
Israel secretly funded Hamas at least for a while. This whole can of worms assortment of various Middle Eastern groups and their politics and histories requires hours and years of study.
Little is as it initially seems.

But our problem is we cannot believe American media nor Israeli propaganda (which is pretty much the same).
We equally cannot believe our politicians (many who are literally dominated by Jewish AIPAC handlers).
It is only some outliers who stand up against the pressing forces of conformity, and learn the ugly, often loathsome truth, that too few want to hear.
So here is one such breathe of fresh air who seems to manage some balance and reflection. Life is not easy if you rebel in this world of lies. This is a good and instructive video:
This Jewish academic shared an anti-Zionist post. She was then fired | Maura Finkelstein
She’s one of the courageous ones standing in the middle of the fray, and caring about what is most important, saving the lives of innocent people against the sociopathic military industrial congressional collegiate complex.
She too is not hiding behind the waiting out of some fantasy of a Biblical End Times scenario in which one hopefully lands in God’s magic kingdom.
Rather she knows any semblance of heaven and hell are to be found here on this planet earth, in the here and now of temporal time, where we equally encounter real issues of good versus evil.
If there is someone to blame for good or evil, it is the human race itself, and not some supernatural force or celestial angelic aliens.
Those waiting for a second coming are sidelined to either end up fighting for forces that are not truly in their real best interests or are simply sidelined into oblivion of stupidity.
Yes, it is a weary road. Truth is not always simple. But take value where you can find it—even if it sometimes means engaged in tedious and tiresome reading.
That country has another force to reckon with, namely Israel’s loyal sayanim brethren around the world who work solely for Israel at the cost of other values (such as stealing secrets from supposedly friendly allies):
The Sayanim: Mossad’s International Volunteers
https://greydynamics.com/the-sayanim-mossads-international-volunteers/
“In the Hebrew language, Sayanim translates to mean “helpers” or “assistants”. In the Mossad, the Sayanim are a volunteer network of Jews across the world who are loyal to the nation of Israel and willing to help the agency in their global mission. According to a comparative study of HUMINT in counterterrorism between Israel and France, Amy Kirchheimer writes that Israel has “the challenge of collecting intelligence on a vast array of targets with a comparatively small number of intelligence officers, and the Sayanim network helped the Mossad Katsas (case officers) somewhat lessen this problem.”
Good, Zionist people as dual citizens, are not all loyal to both countries equally, rather they are more loyal to Israel, at our nationalist costs.
Moreover, they get our country to help fight their wars. Professor Jeffery Sachs has laid it all out in online lectures. Plus their own people primarily enlist to fight solely in Israel’s military.
Therefore, we fellow Americans are flimflammed, and this is especially true because religion has once again come to dominate our society and politics and from a Zionist perspective most societies in the Western world.
The separation of church and state has been a cornerstone of democratic societies, aiming to uphold religious freedom and prevent the establishment of a state-sponsored religion. This principle is deeply rooted in the history of nations and has evolved through significant legal and philosophical developments. As such, its influence on schools extends beyond mere policy considerations, shaping the very essence of educational practices and the rights of students and educators.
How Does Separation Of Church And State Affect Schools
https://christian.net/theology-and-spirituality/how-does-separation-of-church-and-state-affect-schools/
“In this article, we will delve into the historical underpinnings of the separation of church and state, exploring its implications for curriculum development, religious expression in schools, funding of educational institutions with religious affiliations, and the legal challenges that have arisen. By examining these facets, we can gain a comprehensive understanding of how the separation of church and state continues to shape the landscape of education and the experiences of students and educators alike.”
Donald Trump should be impeached for turning this country into a Theocracy.
He is no genius. He does not play 4-dimensional chess. Rather he acts like a bully baby who, when he does not get his way immediately, stands up and tips over the checker board. This impulsive cad is the last person the world needs right now to lead what was once assumed to be some kind of free world.
The End.
P.S. Israel, you are coming down your mountain! You and your Yahweh. Amen
