Courage begets courage on campus

"Antisemitism has spread like wildfire on our campuses as pro-Hamas rallies enter their sixth month.  Encampments where students say they will not leave until their universities agree to stand in solidarity with Hamas mimic how Nazis blocked Jewish students from entering their colleges."

History gives us conviction and guidance - Julia Campbell

Ripples make a wave, and small acts of courage gain momentum for great ones.  And afterward, maybe 80 years from now, someone will look at your actions and be spurred to fight the good fight and finish the race.

. . ."Today, as we watch ravaging antisemitism and the defacing of the American flag on university campuses, prevalent examples in history of courage and bravery should spur us to respond.

"In 1942, German medical student Hans Scholl was awakened to the persecution of Jews in the Western world.  While serving on the Eastern Front, Scholl and his war buddies, Willi Graf and Alexander Schmorell, witnessed firsthand the Nazis’ murder of innocent Polish Jewish civilians.

"Scholl committed to exposing the evil being done against the Jewish population.  Together with Graf, Schmorell, Sophia Scholl, and Christoph Probst, he began secretly planting pamphlets on the campus of the University of Munich in Germany.  This small resistance group titled themselves The White Rose" The leaflets appealed to college students, as they contained references to German literature while, on a deeper level, integrating Christian religious teaching, the bedrock of all morality.  This was a way of changing minds, of getting readers to understand the actions of the Nazis and the students’ duty to resist them.  The White Roses did not rally ignorant mobs together in the façade of a “protest.” 

"However, those who take courageous actions must be prepared for consequences.  On February 22, 1934, Hans, Sophie, and Christoph were arrested, interrogated, and beheaded.  Let it be said of these three noble Christians, “And others had trials of mockeries and stripes ... of whom the world was not worthy” (Hebrews 11:36, 38).  Though their efforts seemed to have lasted only a few months, their rewards are eternal." . . .

"Let these actions of courage and patriotism be an encouragement as well as a charge to us all.  May we not just say, “If I had been there, I would have stood up to racism and Jew-hatred.”  The reality is that we are there, and we must muster the courage we claim.  There are many ways to resist the lies and violence taking place today.  This could be by hosting a prayer vigil, taking to social media to share facts and support, or engaging in conversation with those who support Hamas.  Ripples make a wave, and small acts of courage gain momentum for great ones.  And afterward, maybe 80 years from now, someone will look at your actions and be spurred to fight the good fight and finish the race."

"The White Rose Leaflets" Revolt & Resistancewww.HolocaustResearchProject.org

Sophie Scholl and the White Rose | The National WWII Museum | New Orleans (nationalww2museum.org)   "Sophie Scholl and the White Rose movement, while less known to Americans, is a powerful example of youthful resistance to the Nazi Regime.

Sophie and her friends were so far above the useful idiots programmed by the Nazis and their "Free Free" scarf bots on campus, chanting phrases given to them by their superiors. TD

The White Rose Hans and Sophie Scholl  Heroes you should know. Germany had people like the Scholls; do you think there are any in Gaza? 

Normal Americans understand that Israel is the good guy in the current fight and that Hamas is the bad guy*.

"Today’s brainwashed students (much like the German students brainwashed by Nazi propaganda) have been indoctrinated by radical Palestinian professors like Rashid Khalidi and Joseph Massad (at Columbia University) and the anti-Israel legacy of Edward Said.  They are funded by Marxist donors and Arab money and led by domestic and foreign agitators who harass Jewish students with impunity." 

The world loves dead Jews but hates living ones - Joseph Puder   "Yom HaShoah, or Holocaust Memorial Day, was solemnly memorialized at Yad Vashem last Sunday, a particularly sad day in light of the October 7, 2023 massacres, which marked the largest toll of Jewish-Israelis murdered in a single day since the Holocaust.

"Holocaust commemorations took place in the shadow of widespread antisemitism and calls for genocide on campuses throughout the U.S. and the Western world, shattering the confidence that Jew-hatred is a thing of the past.

"In an interview on Yom HaShoah with Aharon Barak on Israeli TV, the retired former president of Israel’s Supreme Court, and a Holocaust survivor, was asked if he thought a Holocaust could happen again in our time.  He unhesitatingly responded with a decisive yes.  He pointed out that as late as 1939, in his native Kovno, Lithuania, no one would have believed that within a short time, the most horrific genocide in world history would take place." . . .

"The current U.S. administration is reluctant to enforce laws against blind hatred, which is antisemitism.  In a recent speech, President Biden drew moral equivalency between antisemitism and Islamophobia.  While the only hate on U.S. campuses is that being  directed at Jews, Biden opted to placate the pro-Hamas crowds by inserting Islamophobia where there is none, regrettably showing that political considerations rather than moral imperatives are guiding him.

"While memorializing dead Jews in his speech at the Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C., Biden correctly reminded Americans and others just how fast the Hamas atrocities of October 7 have been forgotten.  However, at the same time, his administration has delayed sending approved military supplies to the living Jews of Israel.  Biden is no antisemite, but many in his party are.  They simply hate a strong and living Jewish state.  To that, Israelis respond with am Yisrael chai — “the people of Israel live.”

Let these actions of courage and patriotism be an encouragement as well as a charge to us all. May we not just say, “If I had been there, I would have stood up to racism and Jew-hatred.” The reality is that we are there, and we must muster the courage we claim.    . . ."One of the tactics of these pro-Hamas encampments has been to tear down American flags, sometimes burning them, and then hoist the Palestinian flag on poles and statues.  Those who support Hamas are also open about their hate for America as they chant “Death to America” at their protests.  In a contrasting display of strength, a group of young men at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill raised the star-spangled banner after it had shamefully been torn down.  After resisting the mob and replacing the flag, the young men began to sing the National Anthem in honor of what our flag represents.  In the days that followed, the presence of patriotism in resistance to terrorism grew as counter-protesters challenged pro-Hamas rallies at Ole Miss and the University of Alabama." . . .

Ashley Biden Officially Confirms Her Diary, Where She Talks About “Showers w/my Dad” Joe Biden, is REAL in Emotional Letter to Judge

  The Gateway Pundit | by Jim Hᴏft

"In a letter dated April 8, 2024, addressed to Chief Judge Swain of New York, Ashley Biden, daughter of Joe Biden, confirmed the authenticity of her previously ‘stolen’ diary.

"The diary, which has sparked considerable public and media attention due to Joe Biden’s perverted acts, became a subject of controversy when excerpts were leaked online.

"Ashley Biden’s letter, obtained by the New York Times, was submitted as part of a judicial proceeding against Aimee Harris, one of the individuals convicted of ‘stealing’ and selling her personal journal.

In her correspondence, Ashely Biden expressed profound distress over the theft and subsequent public dissemination of her private thoughts, which she described as “stream-of-consciousness” musings meant for personal healing.

She defended the content of her diary, saying it was “grossly misinterpreted” and “lob false accusations that defame my character and those of the people I love.”

‘A miserable little doom goblin’: Rita Panahi blasts ‘commie troll’ Greta Thunberg

Sky News host Rita Panahi slams “commie troll” Greta Thunberg after she joined pro-Palestine protests in Malmo, Sweden. The activists protested Israel's participation and qualification for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 final. “She really is a miserable little doom goblin, isn’t she?” Ms Panahi said. “How wonderful it is to see her so effortlessly go from climate expert to a Middle East expert.”

October 7 rape deniers need to see truth

Sheryl Sandberg (nypost.com)  "Sheryl Sandberg’s new film, “Screams Before Silence” marks a return to public life for the former Facebook boss.

"It’s a harrowing watch in which Israeli women testify about being raped and taken hostage by Hamas terrorists on October 7.

"Witnesses tell Sandberg in graphic terms how they were forced to look on as women were assaulted, mutilated and murdered."

Pictured below: which of these two people are supported and cheered by the scarf people on college campuses? Hint: you see them wearing the trendy scarves before TV cameras and asking people to feed them vegan food, tents, blankets, and water to spare them from dying of thirst. TD

. . ."The sight of Naama’s pajama bottoms, drenched in blood at the back, was the first clear sign that Hamas was using sexual violence as a weapon of war.

" 'They’re grabbing her by the hair, and she’s all, like, messed up and like, and I’m thinking of her hair, and like, in my mind I’m stroking her hair, like I’m always doing,” Levy Sachar tells Sandberg in the film of her daughter’s kidnapping. Levy is presumed to still be Hamas hostage.

“ 'We would like to think that this couldn’t be possible. That nobody would harm a young girl. But then you just see it there,” adds Levy Sachar." . . .

15 Witnesses, Three Confessions, a Pattern of Naked Dead Bodies. All the Evidence of Hamas Rape on October 7 - Israel News - Haaretz.com

"Hamas' acts of rape on October 7 have turned into one of the massacre's most contentious topics. Each testimony and detail that emerges is weaponized in the clash between Israel's supporters and its opponents. Now, based on conversations with dozens of sources, a Haaretz investigation delineates which proof exists for sex crimes committed by Hamas – and what is missing."

Sapir and Yura, two young people who hid together in the area of the party, told The New York Times that they had seen a number of gang rapes and murders of women, and testified that they had witnessed acts of sexual organs being mutilated. Raz Cohen, who hid next to Highway 232, told a series of media outlets, including Israel's Kan 11 and the Times, that he had seen gang rape and murder. Shoham Gueta provided supporting testimony of this. The Sunday Times in Britain published testimony of another individual, named Yoni Saadon, who told the paper he had seen gang rape and the murder of a woman.

And, as Douglas Murray testified, the Arabs did all this rape and murder with glee.

Hey Google, Antisemitism Is A Feature, Not A Bug, Of The Left

Issues & Insights (issuesinsights.com)

"Google employees teaching its AI and Hamas-supporting students chanting genocidal slogans such as “from the river to the sea” have been fed a steady diet of anti-Israel propaganda by leftist teachers and professors."

. . ."The New York Post reached out to Google, and was told that the non-answers about the slaughter of 6 million Jews were “not intended.”

"Then the Google spokesperson said: “We’ve taken immediate action to fix this bug.”

. . ."Google’s inability to answer a question that most schoolchildren know the answer to was not a “bug.” It was not the result of some innocent coding error, or the work of a rogue programmer. It was the result of intentional biases fed into the program by teams of woke Google staff and management.

"Google’s AI was taught to respond in a blatantly biased way when asked about Jews. It’s the same reason Google’s AI produced such comically inept images, such as black Confederate soldiers, which forced its CEO to admit that its AI was crazily biased.

"Google’s antisemitism might come as a surprise to many, as have the pro-Hamas campus protests. But that’s just because people haven’t been paying attention.

"The left has an antisemitic streak that runs long and deep and that the mainstream media has long covered up by pretending that only right-wingers are antisemites.

"Philip Spencer, an emeritus professor of Holocaust and genocide studies at Kingston University, wrote in the Guardian six years ago — when Britain’s Labour Party was dealing with an antisemitism scandal — that “The current antisemitism crisis on the left has not come out of nowhere. Instead, it has its roots in a tradition on the left itself, which, at best, has always had difficulty in responding swiftly to antisemitism and, at worst, excused or condoned, even promoted it.”

"Will Marshall, president of the Progressive Policy Institute, pointed out just over a month ago in The Hill that: “The core of this new antisemitism lies in the idea that Jews are not a historically oppressed people seeking self-preservation but instead oppressors: imperialists, colonialists, and even white supremacists.” . . .

Joe Biden and the return of the Carter foreign policy

Joe Biden Runs Like a Scared Dog From His Pro-Hamas Position, As His Political Fortunes Sour   "Leave it to Joe Biden, the worst foreign policy mind in American history, to also manage to take the cake domestically. 

"In perhaps the dumbest political move in decades, the president recently pledged to cut off arms shipments to Israel while demanding they not enter Rafah to finish off Hamas. Biden did so in an ill-fated attempt to appease his far-left flank, which is populated by woke "pro-Palestinians" who've never met an Islamist they didn't like. 

"As I wrote recently, that worked about as well as expected. Namely, it didn't work at all and they still hate him." . . . 

One Look at Biden's Top Advisor Explains His Support for Hamas  "After protecting thousands of Hamas terrorists in the southern Gaza City of Rafah last week and kneecapping Israeli's ability to win the war against the Iranian backed group, it's becoming clear who is driving President Joe Biden's betrayal of Israel and rewarding those who carried out the horrific October 7 attacks.

BOMBSHELL: Biden Administration Has Been Hiding Intel on Location of Hamas Leaders in Betrayal of Israel – RedState     "Joe Biden has been hiding intelligence on the whereabouts of Hamas leaders and their command tunnels, depriving Israel of vital information that could lead to an end to the war. That revelation came in a report on Saturday and was framed as the administration offering that information now if the ongoing operation in Rafah is canceled." . . .

'Would Strengthen Hamas' -- Cameron Says UK Will Continue Arming Israel (breitbart.com)  "In an interview on Sky News’ Sunday Morning With Trevor Phillips Show, Foreign Minister David Cameron said that cutting off weapons shipments to Israel is “not a wise path” noting that the last time he faced public pressure to do so “a few days later there was a massive Iranian attack on Israel, including 140 cruise missiles.”

“ 'If I announced that today, it might help me get through this television interview, but actually it would strengthen Hamas. It would weaken Israel,” Lord Cameron said.

“ 'I think it probably makes a hostage deal less likely. So I don’t think some sort of political declaration is the right answer. We should stick with our rigorous process of making sure we act within the law.' ” . . .

Foreign Secretary David Cameron, calls out the BBC “They [Hamas] are terrorists, if you kidnap grandmothers, kidnap babies, you rape people, you shoot children in front of their parents, what more do they need to do for the BBC to say look these are terrorists?”

 

The Trump-Stormy drama, brought to you by the Democrat Party

 

AfterMath - Home (terrellaftermath.com)

Alvin, shut it down for the sake of the party! - Silvio Canto, Jr.   "Up to now, there is a winner and a loser out of this Manhattan trial. The winner is President Trump, who keeps getting stronger. The loser is New York, or the perception that the Empire State is a banana republic. Using the legal system to target political opponents is Banana Republic 101.

"This is from Jonathan Turley:

Cohen’s testimony will be the culmination of this travesty of a trial. But Bragg already jumped the shark with Daniels. After three weeks, legal experts are still debating what the crime was that Trump was seeking to conceal by recording payments for a standard non-disclosure agreement as a legal expense. (That is the same characterization used by Hillary Clinton’s campaign for its funding for the infamous Steele dossier.)

It is still unclear that Trump even knew how the payments were characterized, and the alleged false record was not even created until after the election was over. Yet he stands accused of using the “false business records” to somehow steal or rig an election that was already over.

After this circus with Cohen is complete, Trump will be allowed to testify. He would be insane to do so. Merchan has already said that he will allow a broad scope to cross-examination, making any appearance unlikely.

That is when Merchan will face a key test of judicial ethics. He has failed to protect the rights of the defendant from a baseless, politically motivated prosecution.  . . .

Bill Maher has a 2018 video of Stormy Daniels contradicting her trial testimony - American Thinker  . . ."Instead, Bragg and Merchan may have discredited themselves even in front of a New York jury that has obviously been primed to rule against Trump. Every witness has been bad for the prosecution, and Stormy has been the worst of all. She spoke of hating Trump, explained that she’d be a judgment deadbeat, and has now been caught in a seeming lie. And that doesn’t even include her craziness about speaking to dead people.

UK's Winston Marshall Gives Nancy Pelosi a Proper Spanking at Oxford Union - Calls Out Joe Biden's Dementia - Nasty Nancy FINALLY Receives the Public Humiliation She Deserves!

 MUST SEE! VIDEO | The Gateway Pundit

"Nancy Pelosi and her husband took a break from their insider trading to attend a public debate at the Oxford Union in Oxford, England. The Oxford Union is a highly esteemed debating society and is one of Britain’s oldest university unions founded in 1823.

"Nancy and Robert Pelosi attended the Oxford Union debate on April 25 on populism hours after she was interrupted by pro-Gaza protesters from Youth Demand who support Gaza militants and want to put an end to fossil fuels.

"It was during this debate that Pelosi was finally given the proper public thrashing she deserved by one of Britain’s rising stars, Winston Marshall.

"Winston Marshall is a popular writer, musician and podcaster. Marshall was part of the British folk rock group Mumford and Sons where he was lead guitarist and won a Grammy and two Brit Awards. Marshall was forced out of the band after posting a tweet saying journalist Andy Ngo was “brave” for his book which says far-left activists have “radical plans to destroy democracy”.

"Winston Marshall participated in the debate on populism and its perceived threat by the global elites.

"During his speech Pelosi rudely interrupted the brilliant young mind to argue that the violent and costly month-long protests and attacks on the City of Portland were not as devastating as the Jan. 6 protests and riot.

"We now know that Nancy Pelosi was largely responsible for the violence that day. She refused to sign off on President Trump’s order days before the protests to bring in the National Guard to Washington DC. Pelosi and military leaders then refused to bring in the National Guard on January 6th until past 5 PM. Instead, Pelosi bizarrely organized a film crew to come in and follow her around that day.

"Pelosi’s rude interruption did not stop Winston Marshall from giving her a proper public thrashing.

"This will be the best video you watch all week!"  Here is the transcript:  

Bill Maher drops Stormy Daniels bombshell as he airs 2018 interview with porn star that undermines her Trump trial testimony

  Daily Mail Online 

'The Democrats have had four years to put Trump on trial and it is all just going away. They blew it at every turn,' Maher complained.

 "Stormy Daniels may have blown the Democrats' last chance to see Donald Trump jailed before the election by portraying herself as a victim in bombshell testimony to his hush money trial, Bill Maher claimed.

"The HBO host unearthed footage of his 2018 interview with the former porn star in which she laughed off suggestions she was coerced into having sex during the alleged hook-up 12 years earlier.

" 'It is not a 'me-too' case,' she told Maher at the time, 'I wasn't assaulted, I wasn't attacked or raped or coerced or blackmailed.'

"But she told his New York trial this week that her hands were shaking and she 'blacked out' during the encounter, adding: 'There was an imbalance of power, for sure. He was bigger and blocking the way.'

" 'You really think she blacked out?' Maher demanded. 'A porn star is used to having sex with people she does not know. That's the job. She's not a good witness.' " . .  .

Kathy Hochul: The Breaker of Chains

As insulting and presumptuous as that remark is, it will be forgotten within a day or two because Mhysa Hochul has a (D) after her name. And that (D) is a political shield so powerful, she could walk into a fire and not get burned.

"Governor Kathy Hochul, the domineering mother of us all, seems to believe that young black kids in the Bronx have never heard of computers.

"Yeah, really.

"Now, I don’t live in the Bronx. However, I do live in a Central New York urban area not far from an elementary school, and I can say with absolute certainty that young black kids around here know exactly what computers are. Most of them carry one with them in the form of a smartphone.

Mr Murray wrote a piece in the New York Post earlier this month called, ‘College idiots calling for ‘Intifada’ have no idea how many innocents have died from that word’. “I mentioned, in that piece, the 2001 bombing of the Dolphinarium nightclub in Tel Aviv where a Palestinian suicide bomber detonated by a group of young women trying to get into the club,” Mr Murray told Sky News host Rita Panahi. “These women were the same age as these women chanting for Intifada now at Columbia, and in LA, and in other reprehensible educational institutions in the US. “I wonder if these disgusting and ignorant kids at American universities have any idea that that’s what they’re calling for. “If they do, then they are morally lost to an extent that they probably could never come back from. “If they’re just ignorant, which I really, really hope they are, I hope that – to steal one of the phrases they’re so keen on using themselves – they do the work and realise what the words they chant actually mean.”
