    Professor’s pro-Hamas tweet aligns with academic focus on Israel criticism, terrorist ‘rights.’

    'Higher education has become the Wuhan Institute of Virology for toxic ideas.'

    'The image, posted to Hajjar's now private X account, is an artist's depiction of a bulldozer plowing through a border fence waving a Palestinian flag.'

    [​IMG]
    The smiling Department chair who applauds the violent rape and murder of innocents.

    Or as Hamas put it, "the dirtying of women and the whoring of children."

    US taxpayers must cease all funding of this vile hateful ideology.

    'Lisa Hajjar is your Professor and Department Chair
    @ucsantabarbara
    - are you ok with her celebrating Hamas’ devastating actions of October 7th that included the beheading of babies, raping of teenagers, and kidnapping of Holocaust survivors?''

    These are the same folks who insist everyone else bend over backwards to avoid making them feel the slightest sense of "unsafe", unless of course you are an innocent Jewish civilian, they apparently you are wholly eligible for the most despicable violence imaginable, and these same folks will rejoice and applaud your slaughter, even the posting of it on your facebook page so that those that love you can be horrified by it.

    Michigan State apologizes for Adolf Hitler image on Spartan Stadium scoreboard.

    'Michigan State University leaders have apologized and suspended an employee after a picture of Adolf Hitler was shown on the Spartan Stadium video board prior to Saturday night’s football game.'

    [​IMG]

    The Nazis Are Winning.

    “In the U.S., as in the EU, the great, even overwhelming, majority of demonstrations and riots that are anti-Jewish & pro-Hamas are by Muslims and/or (extreme) left-wing groups, not by white supremacists, nor any other groups.”

    [​IMG]

    'I was lectured long and often last year about how Ukraine was a fight for democracy even as Zelensky banned opposition parties and shut down elections. Here we have a legitimate democracy — Israel — facing an existential threat from rapists and executioners and I do not hear anyone in Washington talking about democracy.'

    'But they go on and on and talk about proportionate punishment as if Palestinians are just unruly children and not cutthroats who want to destroy Israel and kill Jews from the river to the sea. German Nazis used education camps to indoctrinate their youth. American Nazis use Harvard.'

    When these folks reveal who and what they are, believe it.

    The last thing that these folks are is "liberal".

    Remember too much of 'modern "liberalism" is entirely punitive.' Too many 'Leftists take vicious glee in punishing those they judge "guilty" of privilege, racism, oppression, colonialism, etc. They're not focused on building things or helping anyone. Of COURSE they see kindred spirits in Hamas.'

    Too much of 'Leftism paints a veneer of intellectual sophistication and morality over the most brutish human impulses: the urges to coerce and destroy. It's no surprise the first thing leftists did for their pals in Hamas was tear down posters of kidnap victims. Quick and easy destruction.'

    Too much of the censorship within the Left, 'speech controls, and cancel culture are all expressions of the urges to coerce and destroy. They derive primitive joy from coercing obedience and silencing dissent. It's the destruction of knowledge, of language, of dissident thought.'

    I read the entire resolution. Here it is.

    https://www.ci.richmond.ca.us/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=2357

    Obviously its very slanted towards the Arabs, but I guess it could be worse as it calls for all Israeli hostages to be freed. However it never mentions terrorism against Israelis or years of rocket attacks from Hamas.

    Israel’s Gaza Ground Offensive Begins… in the West Bank?

    It's about Hamas, not Gaza.

    [​IMG]

    The IDF attacks strongholds in Jenin.

    'Jenin has long been a stronghold for Hamas and Islamic Jihad.'

    'Gunmen in the city have shot at Israeli troops in recent days, resulting in a series of rare airstrikes.'

    ' IAF airstrikes hit 250 targets in Gaza over the previous 24 hours.'

    THE ENEMY WITHIN: WATCH: Pro-Hamas Florida students and local activists call for eradication of Israel.

    'I remember when everyone on the left was encouraging us to punch Nazis.'

    K-12 IMPLOSION UPDATE: Prof. Giordano: K-12 conditions students to hate Jews in college.

    'Illiteracy regarding basic history is not limited to the Holocaust. Only 13% of students demonstrate proficiency in U.S. History, including our involvement in World War II.'

    Our education system, which is controlled by the Left, deliberately keeps them stupid so that they cannot question their indoctrination.

    [​IMG]

    'Many people are aghast at the pro-Hamas, anti-Israel protests that have erupted on college campuses throughout the country, but no one should be surprised. Since 2009, Campus Reform has been reporting on radical anti-Semitism in higher education fueled by a far-left ideology.'

    'This ideology has supplanted scholarship, debate, and the pursuit of truth. Students learn to despise Jews long before they enter college. The problem begins in the K-12 system where basic history is ignored, and students are not taught how to think critically, leaving them more susceptible to the anti-Semitic brainwashing that occurs at the college level.'

    'Over 1,400 innocent men, women, children, and babies, including 32 Americans were killed in the barbaric Hamas attacks. Instead of displaying outrage at the Hamas massacre, high school students staged walk-outs around the country, including in California and Michigan, to protest the Israeli response to the savage attacks. '

    'Students chanted “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” which is a call for the elimination of Israel. The slogan calls for genocide as they accuse Israel of ethnic cleansing. Groups like Hamas, Hezbollah, and the leaders in Iran advocate for the complete annihilation of Israel and its people every single day.'

    We need national deprogramming from the propaganda conditioning delivered by our taxpayer funded public 'education' system. But on the bright side, Liz Cheney managed to go from a net worth of $7M to $44M in just 4 years while she was in Congress.

    Hopefully the GOP House has used the last 3 weeks to get it's act together.

    There are too many antisemites on the right...



    Sympathy for the Palestinians is why some people criticize Israel, but the rightwing extremists are just Jew Haters. They don't like Palestinians, either.

    Oh, here you go--talking about what you know not.

    Public schools are operated by elected school boards in a framework set out by state governments, teaching a curriculum created mostly at the state level. How does "the Left" control that?
    And to think "the Left" has managed to dumb us down when we weren't looking. Thank goodness you're here to save us with your shot of copied propaganda:

    'Many people are aghast at the pro-Hamas, anti-Israel protests that have erupted on college campuses throughout the country, but no one should be surprised. Since 2009, Campus Reform has been reporting on radical anti-Semitism in higher education fueled by a far-left ideology.'

    So, how did "the Left" manage all this...?

    Is there some reason you think it's necessary for us to use pejorative labels?

    There is nothing pejorative about calling an illegal group that kills civilians "terrorists".

    I don't know who this woman is, but posting her name online like this is disgusting.

    This photo is not evidence of support for Hamas...

    One-Sided Rules of War

    'We’re hearing a lot of talk these days about the rules of war. All of it is aimed at Israel. No one is calling on Hamas to follow those rules. There’s a simple reason for that. No one — no one — thinks Hamas will do anything other than what it always does. And what it did on Oct. 7. The music concert massacre. The murders of civilians from babies in cradles to grandmothers. The rapes. The mutilation and burning of bodies. The beheadings. The hostage-taking of civilians, including 20 children, one of them in a wheelchair. The use of Palestinians as human shields. No one expects Hamas to obey civilization’s standard for conducting warfare. No one even thinks of calling on Hamas to do so.'

    Bribed Joe told Israel not to 'let “rage” affect your decisions. The Democrat squad in the U.S. House of Representatives, aka the congressional antisemitic caucus, demand a cease-fire.'

    Who is going 'to step up to make Hamas pay for the terrible war crimes, the pogrom of Oct. 7? Will the International Court of Justice based at The Hague issue an indictment and send a posse of steely lawmen into the Gaza Strip to arrest the Hamas war criminals and bring them to justice? Dream on. Will the United Nations assemble an army, equip it and dispatch it to Gaza City to wage the unbelievably complex and dangerous mission of urban warfare necessary to bring retribution to these terrorists? There’s a reason the UN is called the Useless Nations. Even worse, the UN secretary general tried to justify the Hamas savagery of Oct. 7'

    'Will the European Union call up soldiers from its member nations to rout Hamas out of the Gaza Strip? Hell, European countries can’t even handle backing the Ukraine war on their own without the spine-enforcing support of the United States. And what about all the Arab nations that are so, so concerned about the fate of the innocent Palestinians in Gaza? Will they tell the Israelis to stand aside while their armies invade Gaza to protect civilians and capture the Hamas terrorists? A fantasy beyond the imagination of any sane human being. This is true even though Hamas is funded, armed and advised by Shia Iran, the committed enemy of the Sunni Arab world.'

    Israel will not fire thousands of unguided missiles into Gaza. They will not rape Palestinian women. They will not target babies for murder. They will not mutilate and burn bodies. They will not capture civilians as hostages.

    Because this group isn't making any college professors. By default Universities have more liberal faculties.

    Again a reminder. US revolutionaries were treated as "terrorists" in the British press for their tactics, particularly the hit and run rather than line up and march into a fight. Washington was profoundly condemned for his sneak attack at Valley Forge.

    I by no means condone the actions of Hamas but I do understand them but it's too many innocents paying the price for the guilty. I also do not condone the actions of Israeli forces in Palestine for precisely the same reason.

    I've said before and I'll repeat. Israel needs to give the Palestinians full authority in their own nation thereby eliminating the raison d'etre for militant Hamas. Make Jerusalem an independent religious state like the Vatican. If Palestine attacks after that then Israel can justify retribution, as it is now it's just American revolutionaries, albeit far more extreme, all over again.

    It has been sixteen years since Palestinians in Gaza have been allowed a free election.

    Your falsehood is the equivalent of saying that rightists approve of Netananyu killing thousands of Muslim and Christian babies in Gaza.


    Neither Israelis nor Palestinians have been well served by their incompetent political leaders.
