Jew hatred boils over in New York AG Letitia James Does Nothing .....is Busy Pursuing Trump

 

As mainstream American news outlets continue to provide extensive coverage surrounding the dramatic uptick in anti-Semitic attacks on Jews and Jewish property, I pause and ponder about just how quickly this latest explosion of visceral Jew hatred has emerged on the scene.

I may be called a lot of things, but one thing I am not is naïve. As a son of Holocaust survivors and a lifelong Jewish activist who has been in the forefront of battling the perennial scourge of anti-Semitism since my youth, I am keenly cognizant of the fact that Jew hatred is simmering eternally under the surface; ready and eager to rear its odious head at just about any perceived provocation.

So, let’s be clear. This wave of heightened anti-Semitic assaults was not triggered by the latest Hamas attack on Israel and Israel’s response to it. These pro-Hamas supporters who we see on the streets of major cities in North America demonstrating against Israel’s right to exist share the terrorist dogma of the organization that they worship. The left wing media continues to erroneously label them as “pro-Palestinian” supporters but if they truly were supporters of the Palestinian Arabs, they would turn their wrath towards the organization that is totally responsible for turning the Palestinians into pawns in a deadly game by using them as human shields.

Interestingly enough, in New York, where the vast majority of the anti-Semitic attacks are taking place, one nary hears a word from the state’s attorney general. The one person who has it within their bailiwick the authority to call for tougher sentences for perpetrators has remained cryptically mum.

Iran's only nuclear power plant suffers mysterious emergency shutdown that will last up to four days and cause blackouts

 

Iran's only nuclear power plant has suffered a mysterious emergency shutdown that is set to last up to four days and cause blackouts. 

Gholamali Rakhshanimehr, an official from the state electric company Tavanir, said on a talk show that the Bushehr plant shutdown began on Saturday and would last 'for three to four days.'

He went on to say that power outages could happen but didn't explain any further.   This is the first time Iran has reported an emergency shutdown of the plant, located in the southern port city of Bushehr. 

It went online in 2011 with help from Russia. Iran is required to send spent fuel rods from the reactor back to Russia as a nuclear nonproliferation measure.

Earlier on Sunday, Tavanir released a statement saying that the nuclear plant was being repaired, without offering further details. It said the repair work would take until Friday.

In March, nuclear official Mahmoud Jafari said the plant could stop working since Iran cannot procure parts and equipment for it from Russia due to banking sanctions imposed by the US in 2018.

Bushehr is fueled by uranium produced in Russia, not Iran, and is monitored by the United Nations' International Atomic Energy Agency. The IAEA did not immediately respond to request for comment on the reported shutdown.

Construction on Bushehr, on the coast of the northern reaches of the Persian Gulf, began under Iran's shah in the mid-1970s. 

After the 1979 Islamic Revolution, the plant was repeatedly targeted in the Iran-Iraq war. Russia later completed construction of the facility.

The plant, which sits near active fault lines and was built to withstand powerful quakes, has been periodically shaken by temblors. 

There have been no significant earthquakes reported in the area in recent days.

Meron probe to target politicians, police officials, religious figures

 

A formal taskforce charged with investigating the April 30 disaster at Mount Meron, which left 45 people dead, will investigate the behavior and decision-making of former public security minister Amir Ohana, former interior minister Aryeh Deri, and former housing minister Yaakov Litzman, who all were in office at the time of the incident, Channel 12 reported Sunday.

While Deri and Litzman had no direct responsibilities for the Mount Meron site, they reportedly pressured the relevant authorities to allow the event to proceed without limitations.

The report said that other officials who are expected to be probed by the taskforce include Israel Police Commissioner Yaakov Shabtai and Northern District Police Chief Shimon Lavi. Rabbi Shmuel Rabinowitz, chairman of the Western Wall Heritage Foundation, who was selected to lead a committee in charge of the site last year, is also expected to be investigated, alongside Yossi Schwinger, head of the National Center for the Development of Holy Places, for not adequately ensuring the safety of the site.

Earlier on Sunday, the cabinet approved the proposal published last week by Defense Minister Benny Gantz and Finance Minister Avigdor Liberman to establish a governmental commission of inquiry into the disaster.

Three countries said to ask Israel for vaccine doses Palestinians don’t want

 

Three countries have contacted Israel to inquire about the possibility of obtaining vaccines rejected by the Palestinians in recent days if Ramallah indeed decides it doesn’t want them, the Haaretz daily reported Sunday.

Citing an unnamed diplomatic source, the paper said Israel was in touch with the countries about a batch of doses set to expire in July.

If an agreement is reached it would be under the same terms as the deal with the Palestinians, whereby Israel would be repaid out of future vaccine shipments to those countries. The deal would need the approval of Pfizer.

Meanwhile, the PA Health Ministry said on Sunday that it will seek to renegotiate the terms of its recent deal for one million coronavirus vaccine doses with Pfizer and the Israeli Health Ministry, hoping to receive Pfizer vaccines from Israel that do not expire until the end of July.

Israel announced the planned transfer on Friday and immediately sent an initial shipment of 100,000 vaccines to Ramallah. Under the terms of the deal, Israel was handing over its soon-to-expire vaccines in exchange for an equivalent part of the PA’s shipment of fresh Pfizer vaccines, which are scheduled to arrive later in 2021.

Most Riot & Looting Cases From Last Summer in NYC Dropped By DA’s

 

It was a year ago that mobs of looters roamed the streets of New York City following the killing of George Floyd by a Minneapolis police officer. From the month of May to June mobs would walk the streets of New York City smashing and looting storefronts, with videos of the incident going viral.

Despite the lawlessness, the NYPD – who were vastly outnumbered during these unexpected events – made hundreds of arrests, with most taking place in Manhattan and the Bronx. Data reviewed by NBC New York showed that at one point, up to 118 arrests were made in the Bronx during the worst of the looting in early June.

Despite the heroic actions by the police, many, if not all of these criminals are still roaming the streets – despite their arrests at the time. This is due to the fact that since then, the NYPD says the Bronx DA and the courts have dismissed most of those cases – 73 in all. Eighteen cases remain open and there have been 19 convictions for mostly lesser counts like trespassing, counts which carry no jail time.

In Manhattan, the NYPD data shows there were 485 arrests. Of those cases, 222 were later dropped and 73 seeing convictions for lesser counts like trespassing, which carries no jail time. Another 40 cases involved juveniles and were sent to family court; 128 cases remain open.

This lack of accountability by the DA’s office has led to outrage by victims and store owners of the looting who see the situation as criminals who are getting off scot free.

A Tale of Two Cities in the One Town of Kiryas Yoel

The Satmar Rebbe, R' Aaron Teitelbaum, believes that he is the Rav of Kiryas Yoel, and so his Bais Din came out with a Fatwa that only Rabbanim affiliated with his faction can preside over Gitten & Kiddushin in Kiryas Yoel...and so if a Zalonie chooses to make a Simcha in Kiryas Yoel, the hall that he chooses will refuse to cater the event.

Not so fast...

The Zalonim don't recognise R' Aron as their rebbe, and don't recognise him as the Rav of Kiryas Yoel..

and so they counterattacked with a poster, that they, the Zalonim, have have many Wedding, Bar-Mitzvah halls that will accommodate Zalonim rabbis in Kiryas Yoel..no problem ...

Self Hating Jew Sarah Silverman Praises Ilhan Omar’s ‘Squad,’ Gets Invited to Join

 

After Jewish comedian and podcast host Sarah Silverman commended Ilhan Omar’s (D-MN) “squad” of lawmakers on Wednesday, she was invited to join the group as a “progressive Jewess.”

On Tuesday night, Omar tweeted a photo of the progressive group of House representatives, which includes Democratic Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY), Rashida Tlaib (MI), Ayanna Pressley (MA) and Cori Bush (MO). Fellow squad member, Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), was not pictured.

Silverman commented on the image the following day, saying: “Love this group!! You give me hope! (Wish there was a progressive jewess in there … someday).”

When Omar responded, “You could run and join us,” along with a smiley face, Silverman replied: “my skeletons have skeletons.”

On June 10, the Minnesota Representative “clarified” her recent comments on Twitter comparing Israel and the US to Hamas and the Taliban, after facing criticism from a group of Jewish House Democrats and others in Congress.

Silverman praised Omar’s 2019 op-ed in The Washington Post written in response to outrage over the latter’s comments regarding US support for Israel, which were branded as antisemitic and led to a House resolution denouncing bigotry.
