Jamaal Bowman duped by fake ‘Chief rabbi of Gaza’

 

Rep. Jamaal Bowman and his campaign were duped by the parody social-media account of the fake “Chief Rabbi of Gaza.”

The phony X account of “Rabbi Linda Goldstein” is infamous for spouting anti-Zionist vitriol to ensnare unsuspecting progressives unaware that it is satirical.

The rabbi messaged Bowman about sponsoring a fundraiser for his Democratic primary campaign.


Under Hamas rule Jews were not allowed in Gaza, and the only ones there now are hostages and IDF soldiers attempting to rescue them — something Bowman evidently didn’t pick up on when he began corresponding with the account.

Bowman, a member of the far-left House “Squad,” has become one of the most vocal critics of Israel and defenders of Hamas in Congress.

He is currently locked in a fierce primary battle with Westchester County Executive George Latimer, with polls suggesting Latimer could beat him badly.

“I really hope you win, I would love to host a fundraiser with you,” Goldstein messaged Bowman in a private X message on April 11. The message prompted a reply from the congressman’s account just 30 minutes later.

“Thank you, how do we get in touch with you?” Bowman asked. Goldstein promised Bowman she has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars before, adding “my anti-zionist community can’t wait to help.”

“Hi Rabbi, this is Bowman’s staff, we’ll have a member of our finance team follow up with you,” read another direct message from Bowman’s account, noting, “We’re grateful.”



Goldstein’s schtick as an over-the-top Palestinian-loving rabbi has won her a cult following.

“I’m organizing an aid convoy to the @Columbia campus,” Goldstein posted last week. “We need: Glamp Tents; Volunteer Baristas; Oat Milk; Keffiyeh’s; Canada Goose Jackets; and Alo Leggings.”

In other tweets she has condemned Passover as Israeli “genocide” against Egyptians; and posed with photoshopped terrorists in front of a “Menorah for Justice” made of rockets.

She has urged Hamas fighters to practice social distancing in terror tunnels.

The account is operated by a pro-Israel attorney named Michael who declined to provide his last name.

“Antisemitism is a low IQ disease,” Michael quipped to The Post when asked about the exchange.

A rep for Bowman dismissed the exchange as a “standard staff response to a direct message.”

Biden Backtracks, Will Not Sanction Netzach Yehuda Battalion

 

The Biden Administration has backtracked and will not impose sanctions on the IDF’s Netzach Yehuda Battalion, according to a report by ABC news Friday morning.

According to the report, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken wrote a letter to House Speaker Mike Johnson explaining that the decision was made in light of Israel’s commitment to addressing concerns over human rights violations by the IDF in Judea and Samaria.

According to Blinken, the administration’s concerns over alleged human rights violations by the Netzach Yehuda Battalion “will not delay the delivery of any U.S. assistance and Israel will be able to receive the full amount appropriated by Congress.”

On Wednesday, Ynet reported that Israeli officials believed that the US would not follow through on its announcement of its intention to impose sanctions on the Netzach Yehuda Battalion. According to that report, the administration has been pressured to reverse its decision from all sides of the political spectrum.

Secretary Blinken said on Monday that there would not be an announcement regarding sanctions against the IDF’s Netzach Yehuda Battalion, but told reporters they should “stay tuned.”

US Senator Marco Rubio warned on Thursday that the decision to impose sanctions on the IDF battalion “helps Israel’s enemies.”

“I oppose plans by the Biden Administration to impose sanctions on the commanders and troops of the Netzah Yehuda battalion,” Rubio said.

He noted, “This unit has been on the frontline against Hezbollah, which is terrorizing Israelis in Judea and Samaria, and it is now working to dismantle Hamas brigades in Gaza. In the last year, this unit has neutralized more than 30 terrorists, destroyed 69 terrorist structures, including sites used by Hamas to launch rockets at Israeli citizens, and located 3 underground sites in Gaza.”

“These impending sanctions are an effort by President Biden to appease Israel’s enemies, including the antisemitic mobs terrorizing college campuses across America. But it will stigmatize the entire IDF and encourage Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Iranian regime,” Rubio concluded.

Morning Joe Finally Gets it Right about Israel/Hamas War


 

More Calling For President of Columbia to Resign

 

Watch this UCLA Professor Scream like a Banshee and being Schooled by a Student!

 

University of Texas-Austin Doesn't Take any Crap from Pro-Hamas Demonstrators.. Clears Them Out!

 



The protest Wednesday at the University of Texas-Austin was a prime example illustrating the difference between how red states and blue states handle respect for the rule of law. Red states meet such challenges with strength, as seen in the cases of Texas Governor Greg Abbott and UT-Austin's President Jay Hartzell.

Blue states take quite the opposite approach. They've taught young people to disrespect the rule of law by ensuring there are zero consequences, so now the young militants are running roughshod over Columbia University, New York University and Yale University, among many others.

The difference simply is the location in which these students are protesting, as formal education seems to have cultivated current generations nourished on left-leaning ideology designed to destroy the fabric of our nation and any hopeful future that we could have. We are, in essence, eating ourselves from the inside out by design.

Columbia & Other Univ Pro-Hamas Demonstrations Have 'foreign assistance' with Coordinated Tents Etc.

 


NYU Coordinated Tents

A
s city officials question who’s funding anti-Israel protests broiling with antisemitism at Columbia University and New York University and point to the nearly identical tents used at these "encampments" occupying campuses, one expert tells Fox News Digital the apparent organization and recent student "training sessions" suggests "foreign assistance." 

"I think there is good reason to suspect that there is foreign assistance and coordination that's fueling the campus protests," Dr. Jay Greene, a senior research fellow at the Center for Education Policy at the conservative think tank The Heritage Foundation, told Fox News Digital, there are "enough signs to make it reasonable to suspect that that is occurring."

It’s time to make Aliya. The לווים already sang Yerushalayim

Pro-Hamas protesters successfully pushed through security and have stormed the FIT (Fashion Institute of Technology) in New York City.

 


Anti-Israel protesters at NYU admit they have no idea what they’re protesting: ‘I wish I was more educated’

 



Two Columbia University students who rushed to join NYU’s violent anti-Israel rally are going viral after admitting they had no idea what the protest was about — and wished they were “more educated.”

The unidentified students rattled off their clueless rationale on the steps of the NYU campus in downtown Manhattan as a slew of NYPD cops clad in riot gear stood in the background, as seen in footage viewed more than 3 million times since being shared by former Mayor Rudy Giuliani late Wednesday.

“I think the main goal is just showing our support for Palestine and demanding that NYU stop … I honestly don’t know all of what NYU is doing,” one admitted when asked about the protest’s purpose.

 Asked if there was “something NYU is doing,” the student meekly replied: “I really don’t know, I’m pretty sure they are…”

She then turned to her friend and asked, “Do you know what NYU is doing here?”

The friend, who was wearing a face mask, then bluntly asked: “About what?”

“About Israel. Why are we protesting, here at NYU specifically?” the student asked.

“I wish I was more educated,” her friend confessed.

The person interviewing the pair continuously moved the camera back and forth to capture the ridiculous exchange.
