The INSANE New York Times Says that the Left's Jew-hate is the fault of the Republicans

 

Campuses across the nation bristle with leftist protesters screeching for intifada; powerful Democrats co-sign the ugliest and most open Jew-hate — but The New York Times insists it’s actually the Republicans who are antisemites; they’re just hiding it to “seize the political advantage.”

It’s all laid out in a 3,500-plus word work of apologetics for the anti-Zionist brownshirts now prominent in the paper’s preferred political party.

You see, the GOP has embraced antisemitism chiefly by . . . criticizing George Soros. 

Yes, that’s the Times’ actual line. 

Attacking one of the world’s richest and most powerful men for spending his billions on bad policy — including on groups that back Jew-hating protestors! — is a stalking horse for secret antisemitism. 

Not Khymani James, the Columbia protest leader who said Zionists don’t deserve to live, nor the students shouting for Jews to go back to Poland.

Not the university administrators who enable and coddle the Krazy Keffiyeh Kids, nor New York Rep. Jamaal Bowman, the secret superfan ofYouTube conspiracy theories who long denied Hamas’ violent, on-video rapes.

No, when it comes to all that, the Times says, “Debate rages over the extent to which the protests on the political left constitute coded or even direct attacks on Jews.”

Imagine the paper’s reporting on a torchlight Nuremberg parade: Debate rages over the extent to which the protests of the NSDAP constitute coded or even direct attacks on Jews

But we’re pretty sure these modern Jew-haters (think tents, not torches) have made their message 100% clear. 

As have the president and his Cabinet, by doing their damnedest to undermine and isolate the Jewish state in its justified and humane counterattack against Hamas. 

It’s obvious why the Times is doing this: The campus protests are hurting the president and his party — since most Americans, red or blue, rightly hate Hamas and its stateside fifth-columnists. 

The piece is desperately flailing, in other words, to deflect Biden’s richly deserved blame before November. 

It won’t work. Biden now owns the pro-Hamas elements in his party (or perhaps they own him?) and nothing short of a full and public repudiation will change that. 

We don’t recommend holding your breath on that one, though.

Trump now leading in 5 battleground states — all of which Biden won in 2020: poll


 President Donald Trump is leading President Biden in five critical, toss-up swing states — all of which Biden won in 2020, a new set of polls revealed.

Surveys by the New York Times, Siena College and the Philadelphia Inquirer found that Trump was more popular than Biden among voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada and Pennsylvania, while Biden led among voters in only one battleground state, Wisconsin.

All six of the battleground states looked at in the polls were won by Biden in 2020, and victories in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin in 2024 would be enough for Biden to secure his re-election, as long as he did not lose any of the states he won four years ago.

The poll numbers revealed how issues like the cost of living, the economy, the Israel-Hamas war, and immigration have caused widespread dissatisfaction among Americans, all while raising concerns over Biden’s ability to improve their quality of life.

Nearly 70 percent of voters polled said the country’s political and economic systems need a major overhaul — and only 13 percent of Biden’s supporters believe he would be able to bring about such change during a second term.

Almost 40 percent of Trump supporters polled said the economy or cost of living was the most important issue in the election, with many doubting the Biden administration’s insistence that the economy is improving. 

Many of the voters polled even admitted that even while they dislike Trump, he would be the candidate to drive much-needed change.

Trump and Biden are tied among 18- to 29-year-olds and among Hispanic voters, even though over 60 percent of the demographic voted for Biden in 2020.

Trump has also secured 20 percent of black voters’ support — the highest level of black support for any Republican presidential candidate since the Civil Rights Act of 1964, according to the Times poll. 

The former president’s newfound popularity among young and nonwhite voters has seemingly opened up the electoral map, pushing him ahead in more diverse states like Arizona, Georgia and Nevada where Biden was previously successful.

Despite this, Biden seems to have maintained much of his foothold among older and white voters who, as a group, seem to be demanding fewer fundamental changes. As a result, Biden has become more competitive in swing states with a greater population of white people, like Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. 

Abortion continues to be a hot-button issue among voters, with 64 percent in battleground states saying abortion should always or mostly be legal, including 44 percent of Trump supporters, according to the polls. 

The surveys also found that nearly 20 percent of voters blame Biden more than Trump for the Supreme Court’s decision in 2022 to overturn Roe v. Wade, a shocking statistic that will likely drive the president to work to rebuild trust among that group of voters. 

Still, voters prefer Biden over Trump to handle the issue of abortion by 11 points, 49 to 38 percent. 

Trump, meanwhile, is polling well among voters who believe the political and economic systems need to be torn down, including 2 percent of “very liberal” voters who went for Biden in 2020, according to the polls. 

Additionally, about 13 percent of voters who voted for Biden in 2020 but do not plan to again said his foreign policy on the war in Gaza was their most important issue. About 17 percent of those voters said they sympathized with Israel.

The polls surveyed 4,097 registered voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin from April 28 to May 9. 

Why I quit being a Jewish anti-Israel extremist’

 The interview starts at the 10:50 mark!


This week, “The Quad” interviews a former Jewish anti-Israel activist, Ateret Violet Shmuel, on why she hated Israel so much, what she believed about herself and other Jews and what made her decide to change directions.

This episode is a must-see for anyone who wants to understand the current protests happening across the United States.

“The Quad” (Emily Schrader, Fleur Hassan-Nahoum, Vivian Bercovici and Ashira Solomon) are also joined by Stephanie Strauss, executive director of Yeshiva University in Israel, to unpack the pro-Palestinian college protests that are threatening Jewish life on campus.

The West will soon pay for Biden’s betrayal

 

Our global adversaries – China, Russia, Iran and its proxies – must be marveling at their good fortune as President Joe Biden effectively endorses a terrorist veto over Israel’s right to self-defense.

The President’s unprecedented open threat to withhold arms deliveries to Israel “if they go into Rafah”, and a State Department public report on Israeli conduct of the war, are self-inflicted wounds to a vital alliance. Israel has not yet publicly responded, but it faces critical choices over whether to proceed militarily in Rafah, or back down. Neither option is attractive given the potential consequences.

Biden’s stubbornness is wrong on many levels. First, close allies should always engage privately during wartime. Leaks undoubtedly occur, often intentionally, but preserving even minimal confidentiality is essential to later repairing damage done both at governmental and personal levels. 

Piling on publicly in the middle of a war is imprudent, even juvenile, damaging the respect and trust allies must sustain during times of crisis and tension. The propaganda opportunities handed to hostile powers are immeasurable. And if Biden is prepared to cut loose one of America’s most valued partners, what does that foretell for those more-distant, less-favored than Israel? How does Ukraine feel? Or Taiwan? 

Second, Biden’s motives are not so high-minded as he may have us believe. This is no profile in courage. Domestically, the President is faring poorly in polls against Donald Trump, and defections to minor-party candidates could sink his re-election chances. In swing-state primaries like Michigan, large numbers of Democrats voted “uncommitted”, posing significant risks if they stay home in November. White House staffers have flagellated themselves to regain key Democratic blocks but they have so far failed. Elizabeth Warren, asserting Israel may be liable for “genocide” in Gaza, exemplifies the problem.
