Nope, I’m simply stunned by the silence.
I guess that article couldn’t be refuted.

Or…I don’t read everything you post and just read the first paragraph while taking my morning crap.
Now I got to go to work. TTFN.
Very well said.

I see this thread has certainly veered back to war topics and away from strickly calling out anti-semitism (I know they are somewhat intertwined). I know there are people who seem to think anti-semitism is the proper response to the war. However… here’s a recap of some recent events…
In April…
In May…
The perpetrator in this crime walked up to people he did not know as they were leaving the Capital Jewish museum in DC and shot them. He did not know if they were Jewish or not, what their politics were or what their occupation was. Yes, they happened to work at the Israeli Embassy but the perpetrator did not know that, it was just two random people he assumed to be Jewish that he killed.
In June…
I believe there were 15 victims plus a dog. The oldest victim was Barbara Steinmetz, a Holocaust survivor.
Tarrant County GOP chair Bo French asks if Jews or Muslims are America’s “bigger threat” (in other words, he finds both to be threats to America)

Jewish cafe owner in San Francscio gets his cafe trashed and defaced.
Then this one… not a call for peace… not coded, a blatant call for death. “Death to the IDF” chants lead at Glatsonbury and shown live by the BBC. IDF service is compulsary for Israeli male & female Jews, Druze, and Circassians (male only). This is an explicit call for death of all of the above.

You commit murder with an antisemite, racial, elderly, children or gender intent? You get the death penalty.
What about sexual orientation?
Gender intent covers it.
I would argue “gender intent” is something different than “sexual orientation”. However, that’s not important here as for the purposes of this discussion, you’ve made it clear that you considered it inclusive. Thank you for the clarification.

Fans of Club Atletico All Boys gather ahead of a match against rival soccer club Atlanta, which is widely associated with the local Jewish community, raising Palestinian flags as men in hazmat suits carry a casket covered with the Israeli flag.
Just read one of the victims, an 82 year old woman, died from her injuries. May her memory be a blessing.
MURDERER!!!

I mean that’s definitely the definition of it. Assault then of the victim does it goes to murder.
That is a political statement Chris.
Then why are he and his posts treated differently than others?

They aren’t.
I want to really understand what you mean by that.
How is it political? I am trying to give you all facts on why antisemitism is at an all time high in Europe and growing. There is a fine line between a political post and facts.
