US support for ISIS 'unprecedented' Time to make Aliyah!
Ok guys ... pack your bags!
Academic experts fear that American support for radical Islamism has reached “unprecedented” levels, even while it stays well below the support for the extremists seen in other countries.
Academics at George Washington University’s program on extremism found that the types of Americans drawn to the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) vary widely in terms of race, age, education and family background. Yet they are largely all united by their use of social media, which ISIS has been able to master as its reach has grown.
“It is not as big as some of the European countries that have been affected by the phenomenon,” he added. “But it is, in a historical sense, unprecedented.”
The findings are likely to add new urgency to officials’ concerns about ISIS, which have peaked in the weeks following attacks in Paris that killed 130 people. The Paris violence came on the heels of bombings in Beirut and the downing of a Russian airliner over the Sinai Peninsula, a troubling sign of ISIS’s expansion beyond its self-proclaimed caliphate.
Intelligence and law enforcement officials have repeatedly warned that ISIS’s fluency on the Internet has made it attractive to disaffected Americans who grow radicalized online.
Critics of the Obama administration’s increasing focus on extremists online say that federal officials arrest people who would be unable to carry out plots on their own.
FBI Director James Comey has previously said that federal officials have launched ISIS-related investigations in all 50 states.
According to the GWU data, 71 Americans have been arrested for crimes linked to the extremist group since March 2014. Of those, 86 percent were male, 27 percent were involved in plots to launch attacks on U.S. soil and the average age was 26. Roughly half attempted to travel abroad or succeeded in doing so, and the vast majority were U.S. citizens or permanent residents. More than half were arrested in a sting operation involving an undercover agent or an informant.
“The spectrum of U.S.-based sympathizers’ actual involvement with ISIS varies significantly, ranging from those who are merely inspired by its message to those few who reached mid-level leadership positions within the group," the report claimed.
Analysts reviewed more than 7,000 pages of legal documents related to the 71 people charged with a crime, as well as nearly 300 Twitter accounts of Americans who support ISIS.
Blacks stone Belz Yeshiva Bus in Monsey, Child hurt!
It was a frightening few moments on a bus packed with Yeshiva children, Tuesday afternoon, when the school-bus was pelted with stones.
Around 2:15PM, a bus from the Belzer Cheder on North Cole and Church Street in Spring Valley exited the school to take the young children home. As soon as the driver made a left tun out of the school and onto North Cole, multiple rocks struck the bus windows where the children were sitting. One rock went flying through the window and struck a child.
Spring Valley Police as well as Rockland Chaverim responded quickly to the scene, and began combing the area for the perpetrators.
The suspects are reportedly an African American male, and an African American female [ages unknown].
Rockland Hatzolah was on the scene treating the child for facial abrasions.
Marsha Levine "Horse Expert" won"t answer 13 year old question because "Jews are Nazis"
This ugly alteh katchkeh, an expert in horse crap, and a self hating Jew, was asked a question by a 13 year old Israeli girl regarding horses, and wouldn't answer her because "the Jews have become Nazis"
This piece of horse manure lives in comfort someplace in the US and dares to lecture a child that has to dodge missiles from Gaza!
Dr Marsha Levine Horse Crap Expert
A former Cambridge academic who told a 13-year-old Israeli girl she would answer her questions about horses when there is peace in Palestine has claimed “the Jews have become the Nazis”.
Marsha Levine, an expert on horses with more than 40 years of experience, said she could not help the teenager because she came from a country whose prime minister “wanted ethnic cleansing”.
Dr Levine, a supporter of the Jews for Justice for Palestinians activist group, said she was not embarrassed by her response to the girl and had believed it was “fair” not to help her.
She said Jews had “turned themselves into monsters” in their treatment of Palestinians in Gaza.
The archaeozoologist had received an email from Shachar Rabinovitch last week in which the schoolgirl asked for information about horses.
Miss Rabinovitch wrote: “I know you are a very important person and I've read your article about horses (Domestication, Breed Diversification and Early History of the Horse) and I love horses very much and it will be an honour if you will answer my questions.”
She went on to ask about breeding patterns and the use of horses by humans in ancient times.
But Dr Levine replied: “I'll answer your questions when there is peace and justice for Palestinians in Palestine.
“I am a member of Jews for Justice for Palestinians. I support boycott, divestment, sanctions. You might be a child, but if you are old enough to write to me, you are old enough to learn about Israeli history and how it has impacted on the lives of Palestinian people.
“Maybe your family has the same views as I do, but I doubt it.”
Dr Levine concluded by suggesting the schoolgirl read a JfJfP piece about the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Contacted by the JC on Tuesday, the American former academic defended her response.
She said: “I didn’t ask her to email me. I don’t know how she got my email address. I can do whatever I want. I didn’t invite her to email me. If she wanted to read anything I had written she could find it on the internet.

“I made the decision that I have the choice not to waste my time on people who tread on the rights of other people. I didn’t do anything to her. I said that when there is justice for Palestine I will answer her – that’s a fair answer. I’m a signatory to Jews for Justice for Palestinians and I sent her a link. I did it as a matter of conscience. The way Israel treats Palestinians is totally disgusting.”
Dr Levine said she wanted Miss Rabinovitch to stand up to violence when she grows up.
“The violence against Palestinians never stops”, the Cambridge-based former academic said. “The people who live in Gaza cannot get education, health, water. What does it say about Jews that they support that? Jews have turned themselves into monsters.
“I want this girl not to worry about horses. I don’t need people emailing me. I’m not an academic anymore. My research was all in the past. I’m doing other things now. I don’t see any obligation to further her ego or make her feel better about herself. I don’t think it’s about her – I think it’s about her parents.
“I gave her useful information which might help her for the rest of her life. I have to stand up for what I believe in.
“Benjamin Netanyahu wants ethnic cleansing. The Jews have become the Nazis. Jews are behaving just like the people who treated them. It’s not all Israelis or all Jews.
“It’s really fascinating that the JC and the people behind it claim they speak for Jews. You don’t speak for me. Never once was I quoted correctly in the past, not even about the bloody horses. I want justice for Palestine.”
Miss Rabinovitch’s family live in Zichron Yaakov. Her father, Shamir Rabinovitch, said he believed children were “out of the equation” when discussing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
He said: “For me, as long as a kid is not holding a knife, a rock, or justifying violence, they are just a kid and I need to help him regardless of what his parents do or think.
“This is why I was so angry from this response to the mail my girl sent. I never pushed extreme ideas to her head and I will never do that to anyone else.
“Political arguments are something that should be conducted by adults. Boycotting a 13-year-old girl just to prove something is no better than not treating some kid in an Israeli hospital just because his father is a terrorist. Kids for me are out of the equation.”
A Cambridge University spokesman said: "She is no longer part of the McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research and is not employed by the university. The views expressed are her own."

Russians ban Soros Foundation as ‘threat to Russian national security’
The Russian Prosecutor General’s Office has recognized George Soros’s Open Society Institute and another affiliated organization as undesirable groups, banning Russian citizens and organizations from participation in any of their projects.
In a statement released on Monday, prosecutors said the activities of the Open Society Institute and the Open Society Institute Assistance Foundation were a threat to the foundations of Russia’s Constitutional order and national security. They added that the Justice Ministry would be duly informed about these conclusions and would add the two groups to Russia’s list of undesirable foreign organizations.
Prosecutors launched a probe into the activities of the two organizations - both sponsored by the well-known US financier George Soros - in July this year, after Russian senators approved the so-called “patriotic stop-list” of 12 groups that required immediate attention over their supposed anti-Russian activities. Other groups on the list included the National Endowment for Democracy; the International Republican Institute; the National Democratic Institute; the MacArthur Foundation and Freedom House.
In late July, the Russian Justice Ministry recognized the US National Endowment for Democracy as an undesirable group after prosecutors discovered the US NGO had spent millions on attempts to question the legitimacy of Russian elections and tarnish the prestige of national military service.
The Law on Undesirable Foreign Organizations came into force in early June this year. It requires the Prosecutor General’s Office and the Foreign Ministry to draw up an official list of undesirable foreign organizations and outlaw their activities. Once a group is recognized as undesirable, its assets in Russia must be frozen, its offices closed and the distribution of any of its materials must be banned.
If the ban is violated, the personnel of the outlawed group and any Russian citizens who cooperate with them could face heavy fines, or even prison terms in the case of repeated or aggravated offences.
The Soros Foundation started working in Russia in the mid-1990s, but wrapped up its active operations in 2003.
Senior Hamas Official Al-Bardawil: Jews Kill Palestinian Children to Knead Their Blood into Matzos
In a November 26, 2015 interview on the Hamas Al-Aqsa TV channel, Salah Al-Bardawil, a Hamas leader in Gaza, said that the Jews had “ancient biblical beliefs, which instructed them to kill children and collect their blood, in order to knead it into the bread that is eaten on Passover.” “This is the killing of a Palestinian child in order to collect his blood and to knead it into the bread they eat,” he said.
Mir Bochrim protect IDF Soldier that was Attacked by other Jews at the Beis Yisrael Shteiblach
Unbelievable Chutzpeh!
Yidden are are going thru living hell in Eretz Yisroel right now, and instead of blessing and thanking the IDF, these animals attack them!And what did the IDF soldier do to deserve the beating? He went to daven!
It's not enough that the IDF are targets by Arab murderers and have to watch their backs, they now cannot find peace in a Shul!
The savage behavior by these bastards come from brainwashing....in the Yeshivos...
Its time to cut these savages off.... I stopped giving anyone from Meah Sheorim any Tzedaakah, even though I am sure that there are children there that need it ... let them take money from the "medinah"
I also stopped shopping there!
Thank G-d for the Mirerer Bochrim, probably Americans that protected him!
An IDF soldier was attacked by Yidden at the shteiblach in the Beis Yisrael area of Yerushalayim on Monday morning 18 Kislev.
Police were quick to respond.
One person was detained, but released by police.
It does not appear that the soldier was seriously injured B”H
.
Yeshiva Bochrim from the nearby Mir Yerushalayim were davening at the shteiblach at the time and surrounded the soldier and protected him while he continued davening.Insanity reigns in the UN mad-house
It may have escaped your notice,
but the world went completely insane in the last week of November.
In the wake of the Paris Islamic outrages that left over 130 killed and more than 300 badly injured, after the carnage in a Mali hotel, following the downing of Russian passenger and fighter planes over Sinai and Syria, and the never-ending mayhem in the Middle East with its consequential million plus refugees desperately trying to find shelter in a Europe and America that are locking their doors,
the United Nations continued its blind hatred of Israel by passing another SIX resolutions condemning the Jewish state for all sort of alleged misdemeanors.
No other country was sanctioned, only Israel.
The depravity of their anti-Israel decision making was encapsulated in one resolution that
“Determines once more that the continued occupation of the Syrian Golan and its de facto annexation constitute a stumbling block in the way of achieving a just, comprehensive and lasting peace in the region.”
They are not only blindly ill-informed at the UN, they are certifiably insane.
Someone needs to knock on their door and tell them about Islamic State, Jebhat Al-Nusrah, the slaughter of Christians, Muslims, Yazidis and Kurds by international meddlers but mostly by the murderous Assad regime.
If there is anywhere on the Syrian border where peace and justice reigns, it is Israel’s presence on the Golan Heights.
If the immorality of these resolutions wasn’t bad enough, not one European nation voted against the Syria-Golan-peace resolution. Not one!
So, while the world is going to hell in a hand-basket, according to the UN it is Israel maintaining a peaceful Golan that is driving them there, and liberal democratic Europe is their navigator.
The United Nations has become the mad-house of international diplomacy and its inmates keep proving, over and over again, that they are certifiably insane.

New York Times invents backlash against NY Muslims
Listen. I have been in the news business all my life, even wrote an entire book about it here, so I know how it works.
Let’s pretend for a moment that I am managing editor of a New York newspaper and it’s a slow news day, which drives me crazy. I need news. I need a headline.
Anything will do, and quick.
I glance across the newsroom. I ask around. Anything happening? People shrug.
“Oh come on,” I yell. “Something. Anything. This is the town that never sleeps.”
I ask Abdul, who runs our Foreign Desk, if he’s got anything to give. “The usual,” he pouts. “Nothing for front page.”
On the Op-ed side, no worries. I’ve got Tom Friedman blaming Israel for this and that. So that’s covered.
At City Desk I remind Aziz that the Paris bombings happened only weeks ago. There must be some reaction.
Okay.
How about this?
He suggests that we run a story about local Muslims coping with an Islamophobic backlash.
“Anything to this?” I ask.
“No, but we can invent, make up a story.”
“Done” – and presto, ladies and gentlemen, Wed, Nov. 25 a story appears in The New York Times with the following headline:
“‘I’M FRIGHTENED’: NEW YORK MUSLIMS COPE WITH BACKLASH”
Are Jewish students frightened? You bet.
Muslims, says the piece, are being cautioned not to stand too close to subway rail tracks.
Why?
Has anyone been thrown overboard? No.
Have mosques been burned? No.
Have Muslims been shot, stabbed, run over while walking
along Fifth Avenue --as are Jews in Israel at the hands of Jerusalem Muslims? No.
Have New York Muslims been verbally assaulted. Yes!
Millions? No. Thousands. No.
How many?
Two.
That is the entire story.
Two New York City Muslims report being verbally harassed or “elbowed.”
The Times got this info from CAIR, the disgraced Council on American-Islamic Relations….but that is good enough for the Times.
Good enough to profile an entire population and paint the entire city of New York with the brush of bigotry.
Good enough to entertain the paper’s zombie Liberal readers.
Exactly what happened to these sensitive New York Muslims? Elbowed, yes, but also “spat upon.”
This is special to Muslims?
Happens to everybody in this town that I know – that and much worse.
Horrors –
but then we learn that following the Nov. 13 Paris attacks, there was only ONE hate crime alleged and reported against Muslims.
ONE!
On hate crimes throughout the US,
Muslims suffer the least,
Jews the most – a whopping 83 percent.
Good journalism would demand that this counterpoint be noted, but we’re talking The New York Times, which long ago forgot what it’s supposed to be doing…print the truth.
Still acting on orders to manufacture a crisis, reporter Kirk Semple keeps to his shaky premise by quoting one Muslim after another as being “frightened.”
These days, aren’t we all?
One New York letter-to-the-editor simply put it like this: “I am Jewish and I am frightened.”
Are Jewish students frightened? You bet.
From campus to campus they are consistently bullied and harassed by judeophobic bullies.
Oh that! Never mind. Only Muslims bleed, according to the Times. Jews, never; Christians, neither.

Former NYPD Jewish Cop Reveals ‘Hard to Listen to’ Recordings of Anti-Semitic Abuse From Fellow Officers
A Jewish New York Police Department officer who was forced to quit his job — after a request for a transfer to another department was denied by his superiors – released recordings of the relentless antisemitic abuse he suffered from fellow officers, ABC News show “The Investigators” reported this week.
David Attali, a six-year veteran of the NYPD with the World Trade Center Command, told ABC that the slurs he received began to escalate from jokes about Jews to constant references to the “good job” Hitler did.
Attali, originally from Israel, said he initially tried to ignore the incessant barbs, many of which were voiced in front of supervisors.
“Certain officers will come in, regardless of who is standing there, sergeant, lieutenant, not referring to me as David,” but rather “dirty Jew.”
Another commonplace greeting Attali recounted he would receive was, “I should throw you in an oven.”
When Attali’s request to be transferred to another command was denied, he decided to begin recording his fellow officers.
This week, Attali went public with the tapes for the first time on “The Investigators,” whose anchor called them “hard to listen to.”
The following are examples of the kind of comments to which he was subjected on a daily basis:
Police officer (in fake German accent): “Do you want to go to this camp for the summer?”
Attali: “Why?”
Police officer: “Oh, you will lose so much weight, you’ll be in the best shape of your life.”
Attali: “How so?”
Police officer: “It’s a concentration camp.”
Attali: “Why?”
Police officer: “Oh, you will lose so much weight, you’ll be in the best shape of your life.”
Attali: “How so?”
Police officer: “It’s a concentration camp.”
Police officer: “Think about it. Where do Jews with ADD get sent?”
Attali: “Where?”
Police officer: “Concentration camps.”
Attali: “Where?”
Police officer: “Concentration camps.”
“You smell like (expletive) and fish,” one officer told him. “You smell like Gefilte (expletive).”
Officer No. 1: “I hate that haircut.”
Attali: “Want me to shave my head?”
Officer No. 1: “I want to push you into an oven and (expletive) burn.”
Officer No. 2: “I want to tattoo a number on you.”
Officer No. 3: “DKS7741, step up, breathe in this tube. And, oh wait, he died, surprise, surprise.”
Attali: “Want me to shave my head?”
Officer No. 1: “I want to push you into an oven and (expletive) burn.”
Officer No. 2: “I want to tattoo a number on you.”
Officer No. 3: “DKS7741, step up, breathe in this tube. And, oh wait, he died, surprise, surprise.”
Attali said that his locker was also a target, with antisemitic slogans and photos – such as a supermarket ad for pork — being plastered in it by coworkers.
He eventually filed a complaint with the NYPD Office of Equal Employment, which concluded that though his locker had been vandalized, his allegations of verbal harassment were unsubstantiated.
“It was too much for me,” Attali said, bemoaning how his dream job had turned into his worst nightmare. “That’s it, I’m done. I’m out… I really had no option.”
Since quitting the force, Attali has filed a discrimination lawsuit against the NYPD and nine officers. His lawyer, Rocco Avallone, told ABC that his client “had to quit. He was what we call constructively discharged. They basically forced him to quit once the transfer got denied.”
The NYPD says it is conducting an internal investigation into this case, and disciplinary charges have been filed against three officers.
