Ben & Jerry’s Recruits Self-hating Jew Pete Beinart, Who Called For Abolition Of Israel, To Defend Boycott

 

After Ben & Jerry’s franchisees sent a letter to the board requesting that it reconsider its boycott on Israel, the ice cream company brought in an extreme anti-Israel activist to defend its decision, The Washington Free Beacon reported.

As Ben & Jerry’s franchisees grapple with the fallout of the boycott, 30 store owners sent a letter to Ben & Jerry’s leadership saying that the decision to end sales in Judea and Samaria “not only distorts the situation on the ground—it has imposed, and will to continue to impose, substantial financial costs on all of us.”

In response, Ben & Jerry’s last week brought in anti-Israel author Peter Beinart, who has called for the abolition of Israel, to talk to store owners about Israel’s “illegal occupation.”

Speaking on a conference call, Beinart claimed that Israeli soldiers are sent into Palestinian villages to abduct minors and that Israel illegally occupies territory “it seized from Jordan in an offensive war in 1967.”

Beinart told the Free Beacon that he was invited to speak because he has publicly encouraged boycotts of Israel’s “occupied territories.”

“I wrote a NYT op-ed calling for settlement boycott in 2012. I’ve espoused this view for a long time,” said Beinart.

In July 2020, Beinart wrote another NYT editorial stating: “I no longer believe in a Jewish state.”

Beinart recently revealed in his newsletter that he has “spoken privately to [Ben & Jerry’s] executives and encouraged their efforts” on the boycott campaign, adding that “no one has produced any independent evidence that the company is hostile to Jews.”

Father dies by suicide on grave of son killed by Gaza rocket fire in 2014

Moshe Etzion, 88, the bereaved father of Ze’ev Etzion who was killed by rocket fire from Gaza during the 2014 war, took his own life at the gravesite of his son on the Hebrew anniversary of his death on Sunday.

The Etzion family lived in the southern Kibbutz Nirim, near the border with the Strip.

Moshe Etzion left his home early Sunday morning, and after he did not return for a number of hours, authorities launched a search for him.

He was found dead next to the grave of his son in the kibbutz, the Eshkol Regional Council said. He is to be buried tomorrow in Nirim.

His son Ze’ev, also known as Zevik, was a local security officer for the kibbutz during the 2014 war, as well as an emergency medic and ambulance driver.

Ze’ev was killed on August 26, 2014, when a Hamas-launched mortar shell landed in the kibbutz and shrapnel hit him. The seventh anniversary of his death fell on Sunday, according to the Jewish calendar.

The Nirim attack came amid a fierce bombardment of the towns and communities of southern Israel in the hour before a ceasefire agreed upon by Israeli and Palestinian representatives took effect.

Hey New Yorkers... Meet Your New Governor ..Kathy Huchul

 

As New York’s lieutenant governor, Kathy Hochul has spent years on the road as the friendly face of the administration, visiting the far-flung coffee shops and factory floors of each of the state’s 62 counties for countless ribbon-cutting ceremonies and civic cheerleading events.

Now, with Gov. Andrew Cuomo facing possible impeachment over sexual harassment allegations, her next stop may be the state Capitol of Albany.

Hochul would become the state’s first woman governor if Cuomo were removed from office.

A centrist Democrat from western New York, she has worked deep in Cuomo’s shadow for her two terms in office, but this week joined the chorus of politicians denouncing the governor after an independent investigation concluded he had sexually harassed 11 women while in office.

“I believe these brave women,” Hochul wrote, calling Cuomo’s behavior “repulsive and unlawful” in a statement Tuesday.

She also acknowledged what has been simmering for months: The possibility she will become governor.

“Because lieutenant governors stand next in the line of succession, it would not be appropriate to comment further on the process at this moment,” she wrote.

To many New Yorkers, Hochul is an unknown quantity, serving since 2015 in a job that is mostly ceremonial. A typical afternoon in late July had her announcing job training funding in Utica, discussing manufacturing in Rome and touring downtown Cazenovia with the small town’s mayor.

Why Orthodox Jews Are Leaving Brooklyn for Florida

 

The following article appeared in the Wall Street Journal 

What would motivate a Hasidic rabbi and his followers to leave a Brooklyn enclave where they’ve lived for generations and establish a quickly growing community in Wimauma, Fla., a semi-rural area near Tampa Bay?

The same reasons that have led to an unprecedented wave of Orthodox Jewish families moving to South Florida: education choice, low taxes and good governance. Most Orthodox families send their children to private Jewish schools because public school is simply not an option—religious instruction is as important to them as academics. But the tuition burden can be immense.

That’s why many young families up north are enticed by Florida’s robust menu of state-supported private-school scholarships, worth on average about $7,500 a year, as well as expanded benefits for children with a wide range of disabilities. These programs make private-school tuition far more affordable in Florida than in New York and New Jersey. Legislation recently signed by Gov. Ron DeSantis has made even more families eligible for these options, further fueling the migration.

Jews started moving south even before the pandemic. Figures from Florida’s Education Department show enrollment in Jewish day schools statewide grew in 2020 to 12,482 students from 10,623 in 2018. The number of such schools grew to 64 from 50 during that time. The pandemic supercharged demand for Jewish day schools in South Florida.

Rabbi Moshe Bernstein, chief financial officer of Yeshiva Toras Chaim Toras Emes in North Miami Beach, one of the largest South Florida Jewish schools with a current enrollment of more than 1,000 students, projects nearly 300 new students next year. The school will need to accelerate a planned expansion of its campus to accommodate them. Toras Emes has received so many out-of-state inquiries about admission that its website added an option in its admission drop-down menu labeled “Considering a Move To Florida?”

The dramatic increase in enrollment is coming mainly from families from New York and Los Angeles. Rabbi Yoni Fein, head of school at Brauser Maimonides Academy, a Jewish day school in Broward County, has worked his way through twice the typical number of applications for the coming school year.

New York City divorce attorney, 65, who ‘was threatened by client and his brother’ is found beaten to death

 

A divorce lawyer was found beaten to death in his office in Queens, New York early this morning after allegedly being threatened by a client the night before.

Charles Zolot, 65, was found in a pool of blood with ‘trauma to his face’ and ‘puncture wounds to his chest,’ according to the New York Police Department.

A maintenance worker discovered the battered body at around 5:50am in the second-floor office at 37-06 82nd St. in Jackson Heights. 

He called 911, but Zolot was declared dead at the scene.

Police have said they retrieved surveillance footage from the office which may show a potential suspect, but the video has not been released and a suspect has not been named. 

Other lawyers in the building said a client had threatened the lawyer, and then returned last night.

How was is it possible for someone to get into a top security area in the State Dept to Carve a Swastika on a Elevator door without getting caught

 

Last Monday, some pathetic little bigot cut a big Nazi swastika into the wooden paneling of elevator 36 at the US Department of State.

Elevator 36 isn't a service elevator open to any passing tradesman, nor is it open to the public. It's not even in one of the corridors used for VIP tours. 

It's in a security area behind a screening gate, only credentialed employees can have access to it, so whoever is responsible works in a nearby office. There are cameras are all over!

So how did he manage to get away with it? 

I'm sure they know who the culprit is, but are keeping it under wraps, as this guy is probably very high up in the ranks in the State Department...

The State Department are known Arabists and are vicious anti-Semites who actually helped wanted Nazis escape and hired them to work for them.... 

John Loftos a former high level US government prosecutor and former intelligence officer has documented all this in a book.

So who is this guy?

A swastika was found carved into the wall of an elevator inside the State Department’s main headquarters in Washington, DC, on Monday, officials said.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken condemned the hateful vandalism in a Tuesday message to department employees and said the swastika has been removed.

“As this painfully reminds us, antisemitism isn’t a relic of the past,” Blinken said in the message.

“It’s still a force in the world, including close to home. And it’s abhorrent. It has no place in the United States, at the State Department, or anywhere else. And we must be relentless in standing up and rejecting it,” said Blinken.

Blinken, the stepson of a Holocaust survivor, said the incident is under investigation.

18 teenage girls from Boro-Park Monsey Williamsburg are escorted off plane in Amsterdam TWICE!!

 

So is you son in shidduchim? How about doing a shiddich with one of these "Chutzpinaks?"

These girls will no doubt be thought of as martyrs by the heimishe community and will become celebrities, then they will go on to be the mothers of the next generation of our precious Jewish children ...

Eighteen Jewish teenage girls were met by security after arriving at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol on a flight from Kiev on Thursday.

The Orthodox girls were part of a group of 56 who had been on a tour of Jewish sites in Europe, reported Hamodia.

According to a spokesperson from KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, the group had not complied with coronavirus measures during the flight, reported Netherlands News Live.

However, Herman Loonstein, the lawyer for the girls, said that their treatment was “disproportionate.”

KLM is claiming that the passengers took off their masks when they weren’t supposed to and also walked through isles on the plane without wearing masks. According to KLM’s spokesperson, the group did not listen to a flight attendant who asked them to comply with the rules.

They were then met by security at the gate when the plane landed in Amsterdam.

Loonstein said that because KLM does not serve kosher meals on European flights, the girls had brought their own food. This fact was confirmed by the KLM spokesperson.

When two members of the group became hungry, they decided to eat their own food.

KLM said that this was only allowed within specified times, and claimed that the group “mainly used it as an excuse not to have to wear a mask,” reported Netherlands News Live.

This is the second time the group has been accused by KLM of rowdiness.

On July 20, when taking a flight from New York to Amsterdam, KLM said in a statement that the same group of girls on multiple occasions refused to follow in-flight instructions.

“On arrival in Amsterdam, this group was again warned by the KLM security service and pointed out the possible consequences of misconduct. It was also made very clear that this was the last warning.”

The group was given an emergency visa on Friday, allowing them to leave the airport. They will reportedly fly back to the US on Sunday or Monday, according to their lawyer who said he doesn’t know if the flight will be with KLM and that the girls are “fearful” to again fly with the airline.

According to a report in Hamodia, the official cause of the girls’ troubles with KLM is being described by the airline as “unruly behavior” and “refus[ing] to comply with crew instructions” including accusations of cursing at the flight crew.

The allegations were denied by the group who said they complied with all the regulations and wore masks at all times except when eating.

A KLM official also reportedly threatened to ban them from the airline.

The brother of one of the girls alleged in an interview with Hamodia that the flight crew were “harassing the girls the entire time.”

He added that while there were no anti-Semitic comments or statements by the flight crew, he believed that “this is obviously anti-Semitism. They targeted 18 Jewish girls, in alphabetical order, and they didn’t even bother giving a reason.”

The airline, for its part, denied the allegations and said in a statement to Hamodia that the issue was one of safety.

“KLM Royal Dutch Airlines does not tolerate any form of unruly behavior towards passengers or crew. When passengers endanger flight safety and thus the safety of themselves, other passengers and the crew, we take this very seriously. This also applies to passengers not adhering to COVID-19 measures.”

However, the girl’s brother insisted that there was more to the story and that the girls were discriminated against.

“They were adhering to their rules and instructions the entire time. In fact, many of the girls had slept through most of the flight and had no interactions with the flight staff,” he maintained.

Most of the girls are from Monsey, Williamsburg and Borough Park, New York.
