Ben and Jerry's calls to 'defund the police,'

Two naive Jewish fools, Ben Cohen & Jerry Greenfield think that if they team up with the vicious anti-Semitic BLM movement... Ilhan Omar and Tlaib will love them....

What will they do when someone viciously beat the crap out of them or their wives and children .. who are they going to call? Social workers? 

Ben and Jerry’s declared its support for the “defund the police” movement in a tweet marking Juneteenth, the day commemorating the end of U.S. slavery.

“Defund the police, defend Black communities!” the Vermont-based ice cream company said in a tweetFriday. “This #Juneteenth, it’s more important than ever that we dismantle the racist and ineffective model of American policing. Learn more about how defunding the police works and why we so desperately need it.”

The tweet linked to a press release stating the company’s interpretation of “defund the police,” which it says presents the best opportunity yet to transform the U.S. policing model so that “Black Americans and people of color can finally experience and celebrate true freedom.”

DIN Endorses "Yoily For President" in 2020

We here at DIN were at first very excited by the Kenya West candidacy, but when he said that "Harriet Tubman didn't free the slaves," that did it for us .... We also didn't think that his idea that the "Israeli Continent" should grant each Black child a million US dollars, was a feasible option at this time, maybe we can revisit this request when the blacks start putting on Rabbeinu Tam tefillin.

When we in the DIN newsroom, heard what Yoily was offering, we knew we had a winner. ... 

A guy who thinks that "battleground states" is about people fighting whether they should put on masks on and has no clue what a "filibuster" is, thinks the "Electoral College" is a college that places the votes "electrically," and believes that "Incumbent" is a vegetable, is our man in Washington for the next four years ...
We hope he chooses Abby Stein as his VP .. this would balance out the ticket.

Auschwitz: Identifying inscriptions found in children's shoes

Employees of the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum discovered handwritten inscriptions in shoes belonging to children who were sent to the Nazi death camp in Poland.

The discoveries were made in the course of efforts to preserve the shoes on display at the museum.

One inscription identified a shoe as belonging to Amos Steinberg, who was born in Prague in 1938 and imprisoned with his parents in the Theresienstadt ghetto in 1942. He was later sent to Auschwitz.

“We can guess that it was most likely his mother who made sure that her child’s shoe was signed,” Hanna Kubik of the museum’s collections department said in a statement Tuesday announcing the findings. 

“The father was deported in another transport. We know that on October 10, 1944, he was transferred from Auschwitz to the Dachau camp. He was liberated in the Kaufering sub-camp.”

In another shoe, employees found documents in Hungarian with several names: Ackermann, Brávermann and Beinhorn.

“These people were probably deported to Auschwitz in the spring or summer of 1944 during the extermination of Hungarian Jews,” Kubik said. “I hope that more detailed research will reveal details about each individual.”

Vast quantities of children’s shoes are on display at Auschwitz, and the museum has been engaged in an ongoing effort to preserve them. Many historical artifacts have been found in this process, including letters, newspaper fragments and bank notes, some of which were used as lining or padding.

About 230,000 children are estimated to have been imprisoned in Auschwitz, the vast majority of whom perished there.

New York Times Owners Were Slaveholders

The Talmud in tractate Kiddushin (70a) has a great saying:

כל הפוסל במומו פוסיל 

"He who condemns certain imperfections in others , is himself imperfect in those areas"

In the last couple of weeks we have all seen the "righteous" New York Slimes condemn those who point out the anti-Semitic, anti-White BLM agenda, while their very own families owned and tortured slaves.  We saw how these "holy hypocrites"  forced out reporters that reported stories that didn't fit their hateful leftist propaganda, but never will they look into their own dark anti-Black family secrets....

by Michael Goodwin

It’s far worse than I thought. In addition to the many links between the family that owns the New York Times and the Civil War’s Confederacy, new evidence shows that members of the extended family were slaveholders.

Last Sunday, I recounted that Bertha Levy Ochs, the mother of Times patriarch Adolph S. Ochs, supported the South and slavery. She was caught smuggling medicine to Confederates in a baby carriage and her brother Oscar joined the rebel army.

I have since learned that, according to a family history, Oscar Levy fought alongside two Mississippi cousins, meaning at least three members of Bertha’s family fought for secession.

Adolph Ochs’ own “Southern sympathies” were reflected in the content of the Chattanooga Times, the first newspaper he owned, and then the New York Times. The latter published an editorial in 1900 saying the Democratic Party, which Ochs supported, “may justly insist that the evils of negro suffrage were wantonly inflicted on them.”

Six years later, the Times published a glowing profile of Confederate President Jefferson Davis on the 100th anniversary of his birth, calling him “the great Southern leader.”

Eli Bar Zakai The Driver Who Downed Bottle of Vodka Before Killing Teen Gets 12 years in Prison

The Tel Aviv District Court on Tuesday sentenced a driver who killed a teenager while driving under the influence two years ago to 12 years in prison.

The court also revoked Eli Bar Zakai’s license for 20 years and ordered him to pay NIS 100,000 ($29,172) compensation to the family of 13-year-old Eylon Shalev-Amsalem, killed in a 2018 fatal traffic accident in Tel Aviv.

Bar Zakai, who the court determined drank a bottle of vodka before getting behind the wheel, was also given an 18-month suspended sentence and ordered to pay another NIS 75,000 ($21,000) to the family of another teenager, who was injured in the crash.

“The sequence of conscious decisions made by the defendant shattered Elon’s family,” Judge Benny Sagi said, leaving Shalev-Amsalem’s parents “with a wounded and bleeding soul forever.”

After the sentencing, Shalev-Amsalem’s father Kobi said “no punishment will bring him back. At least we have brought a painful chapter to a close.”

The other teenager who was injured along with Shalev-Amsalem, but cannot be identified as he is a minor, was also present at the sentencing.

“The court ruled that anyone who gets into vehicle, and God forbid is involved in such an accident, will be subject to a heavy and significant punishment,” said prosecutor Erez Richtenberg.

Rebbitzen Madonna From the Kabbalah Center Posts On Instagram A Louis Farrakhan Video and Has Up up 700,000 views

This washed up aging "hasbeen" continues to make waves..

Tries to remain relevant by posting a video of a "Black Hitler"

The problem is that she does have over 15 million followers..and that's because she keeps enticing her viewers with her scantily dressed outfits.. believe it or not, there are still many guys who want to see this 61 year-old katchke in a bathing suit ..

With that many followers she can do a lot of damage to Jewish communities. She can actually be dangerous ..

In the past few weeks, several celebrities have faced a backlash for sharing statements from Louis Farrakhan.

But one star seems to have escaped notice:

 Madonna.

On July 4, Madonna posted a video to her Instagram account that was a trailer for a speech by Farrakhan, the Nation of Islam leader who has spouted anti-Semitic rhetoric over the years, that same day. 

It has since racked up 710,000 views. Madonna has more than 15 million Instagram followers.

Some of the comments on the video express surprise that Madonna, who has been an advocate for the LGBT agenda and been an enthusiastic proponent of the study of Kabbalah, or Jewish mysticism, would boost a man with a long history of anti-Semitic and anti-LGBT statements.

“No no no no no no no this is not a voice you should be sharing,” one commenter wrote. “Much love but good god.”

Several other celebrities have defended or praised Farrakhan and echoed his anti-Semitic rhetoric over the past several weeks. 

They include NFL player DeSean Jackson, former NBA player turned talking head Stephen Jackson, TV star Nick Cannon, comedian Chelsea Handler and rapper and actor Ice Cube. All but Ice Cube apologized.

Far-left French politician accuses Jews of killing Jesus

I never understood this.... why would a goy care if a Jew killed another Jew?

All agree that J was born a Jew, and died a Jew .. so why would anyone care? Jews killing Jews ...who cares?

These guys actually believe that J, a Jew, is God, and they bow down to this dead Jew in their houses of worship....

Can you imagine any Jew in the entire world even a Chilonie from Haifa bowing down and praying to some dead single Italian homeless bastard?

Comes along this Frenchman who if not for the Americans, would be speaking German, and says that the Jews are responsible for killing God....  a homeless, single Jew, who never got married, and couldn't defend himself against his fellow Jews when he was alive ... 

 Christian "chachumim," however, worship him while he is been dead for over 2,000 years ....

Did they ever stop and think that if their God was murdered and is apparently dead , who is running the world in his absence?
This in the 21st century ....

French politician Jean-Luc Melenchon accused Jews of deicide, or being responsible for the death of Jesus, during a television interview, JTA reported on Monday.

Melenchon, the founder of the democratic socialist La France Insoumise, or Unsubmissive France party, and a member of the National Assembly, made the remarks on Thursday in an interview on the French BFM-RTL TV news channel.

Asked if the French police were supposed to stand back in the face of violent protest, Melenchon responded that they needed to “stay put like Jesus on the cross without reacting.”

He then added that “I don’t know if Jesus was on a cross, but he was apparently put there by his own people,” meaning Jews, and thus repeating the anti-Semitic canard that the Jews killed Jesus.

Kanye West: "The Israel Continent should pay African women $1 million per child"

Thank G-d, we now have another choice for president ... a young guy with a new perspective, and who thinks Israel is a "Continent." 

Kanye West also has a keen understanding of history ... shouting that the former slave Harriet Tubman never "freed any slaves" she "just had them go to work for other white people." 

So for those "never-trumpers" and for those who complain about "White Privilege" you all should thank your lucky stars for living in a country where a young black rapper whose father was a member of the Black Panthers, has the opportunity to run for the highest office,..  
let's see you vote for this guy ..
Meanwhile his running for president got him into "shalom bayis" problems with his wife Kim Kardashian, who according to the Presidential hopeful wants to lock him up in a "funny farm."

West took to Twitter on Monday night and wrote, “Kim was trying to fly to Wyoming with a doctor to lock me up like on the movie Get Out because I cried about saving my daughters life yesterday.”

Reports indicate that Kardashian, 39, is "furious" at her 43-year-old husband after he claimed that they considered terminating Kardashian's first pregnancy, which eventually resulted in their daughter North.

Rapper Kanye West hit the campaign trail Sunday, addressing supporters at a rally in North Charleston, South Carolina.

The 43-year-old rapper, who had previously expressed support for President Donald Trump, said earlier this month that he no longer backs the president and announced plans to run for the White House.

Despite initial reports that he had dropped out of the race after missing the registration deadlines in multiple states, West is continuing his presidential bid, hoping to win as a write-in candidate in those states where he missed the deadline for appearing on the ballot.

At his North Charleston event Sunday, West touched on a wide range of issues, from abortion and welfare to the pharmaceutical industry, gun ownership, and tax policy.

Among other things, West advocated a return to agrarianism and the undoing of the industrial revolution.

Biden vows to end Trump travel ban And Vows "To Teach More Islam" in call with Linda Sarsour

So Biden wants to teach Americans more "Islam" ....I think that Americans should first learn about their own country, if they did they would learn that Biden is already sitting in Congress for over 40 years and couldn't change a thing ... and they would learn that Biden was against gays ...  spoke disparagingly about Blacks..and that his family won't let this crazy guy leave the attic ..

Joe Biden railed against what he called “Islamicphobia” and vowed to end the Trump administration’s travel ban on his first day in office during a call Monday with the nation’s largest Muslim-American PAC — including anti-Israel activist Linda Sarsour.

“If I have the honor of being president, I will end the Muslim ban on day one, day one,” Biden said during the “Million Muslim Votes Summit” call hosted by Emgage Action which endorsed his White House bid in April.

The travel ban signed by President Trump in January 2017 blocks most immigrants and travelers from Iran, Libya, Somalia, North Korea, Syria, Venezuela and Yemen.

But Biden didn’t stop there, also lamenting that US schools don’t teach more about Islam.

“One of the things I think is important, I wish we taught more in our schools about the Islamic faith,” he said, while accusing President Trump of “fanning the flames of hate.”

Sheldon Silver Gets 6 1/2 Years in Prison

Former New York Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver was sentenced Monday to 6 1/2 years in prison in the corruption case that drove him from power.

The sentencing by U.S. District Judge Valerie E. Caproni in Manhattan came after she insisted that the 76-year-old Democrat come to court in person to hear his punishment, rather than appear remotely because of concerns about exposure to the coronavirus.

In a handwritten letter to the judge, Silver, who was one of New York’s most powerful politicians in his 21 years as Assembly speaker, had asked that he be spared a prison term that would cause him to die in prison.

Prosecutors had urged that he go to prison for seven years for bribery and extortion.

In A World Gone Mad .... St. Louis Couple Get Charged For Protecting Their Home

This is a taste of what a Biden presidency is going to look like ...and that means Jews are in big trouble... they will not be able to defend themselves or their property. In fact last week,  former NYC police commissioner John Kelly said that Jews will not have the protection of the police.... it's mob rule ...

St. Louis’ top prosecutor told The Associated Press on Monday that she is charging a white husband and wife with felony unlawful use of a weapon for displaying guns during a racial injustice protest outside their mansion.

Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner announced the charges against Mark and Patricia McCloskey, who are both personal injury attorneys in their 60s. They also face a misdemeanor charge of fourth-degree assault.

Gardner said in an interview with the AP ahead of more broadly announcing the charges that the McCloskeys’ actions risked creating a violent situation during an otherwise nonviolent protest.

“It is illegal to wave weapons in a threatening manner — that is unlawful in the city of St. Louis,” Gardner said.

The attorney for the McCloskeys, Joel Schwartz, in a statement called the decision to charge “disheartening as I unequivocally believe no crime was committed.”

Brooklyn Lady Shot Dead After Asking Neighbor Not To Set Off Fireworks

A Brooklyn woman who followed Borough President Eric Adams’ advice for New Yorkers to settle disputes neighbor-to-neighbor rather than calling 911 wound up shot dead after she confronted some punks setting off illegal fireworks, the victim’s grieving mom said.

Shatavia Walls, 33, was blasted eight times in an East New York public housing complex on July 7, simply for asking the fiends to take their dangerous display away from a group of playing kids — exactly how Adams had urged constituents to act in the face of the pyrotechnic plague.

“She watched the news. Yes, she heard it,” Helen Testagros, Walls’ heartbroken mother, told The Post on Sunday, referring to Adams’ advice. “It was probably in the back of her mind.”

Who "murdered" R' Shmuel Ashkenazi ?

Rav Shmuel Ashkenazi, z’l, a resident of Jerusalem known as the “ish sefarim” due to his decades-long habit of buying a new sefer every day from the time of his wedding passed away on Shabbos at the age of 98, Kikar Shabbos reported.

A relative of the niftar told Kikar H’Shabbos that during the first few months of the coronavirus pandemic, Rav Ashkenazi eagerly awaited the moment he would be able to daven in shul once again. When shuls were finally reopened, Rav Ashkenazi returned to shul, thinking he would be safe since anyone with the coronavirus wouldn’t attend.

“But a murderer awaited him there!” his relative said. “One of the mispallelim who was aware that he was carrying the coronavirus nevertheless came to shul and sat not far from the elderly R’ Shmuel, who was mapkid to sit at a separate table.”

Shortly later, R’ Ashkenazi began developing symptoms of the virus, passing away on Shabbos, a few weeks later. “And to be clear,” his relative continued, “Rav Shmuel had no underlying illnesses despite his advanced age. He died only because of the coronavirus which he caught from the mispallel who violated the regulations.”

R’ Ashkenazi was born in Yerushalayim to a family that lived in the city for generations.

Due to his unusual minhag of buying a sefer every day, his home in Batei Ungarim looked like an otzeir sefarim, with sefarim lining all the walls of his apartment until the ceiling. He even had ladders to reach the upper shelves but had difficulty climbing them in his later years.

What made his home even more unusual was that sefarim even lined the walls of his small Israeli kitchen. Instead of upper kitchen cabinets in the small space allocated to it, there are sefarim shelves. Sefarim shelves also cover the other upper walls of the kitchen.

R’ Ashkenazi didn’t just buy the sefarim but also learned from them – from all of them.

He published a sefer of his Torah writings several years ago, Alfa Beisa Kadmisa.

Aaron Keyak Frum Leftist "lapdog" Will Join Biden Campaign

There is an expression from the Medrish Raba .....Rashi uses it in Parshas Balak 

"לא מדובשך ולא מעוקצך "

"Don't give me your honey and spare me your sting"

This misguided useful idiot, Aaron Keyak, was communications director for the Fat Jewish/Backstabber, Jerry Nadler, and also played a leading role in Jewish outreach on behalf of Hussain Obama's Presidential reelection.

Let's not forget that it was Nadler that voted for the Iran deal that would have handed nuclear weapons with impunity to the Iranian mullahs who vowed to wipe the State of Israel off the map, and it was the  Obama/Biden administration who on their way out the door had the US abstain on a UN resolution that stated that the Kotel, Kever Rachal, Kever Yoisef, Mearas HaMachpeilah and Chevron never belonged to the Jewish people and therefore have no historic claim to it.

This naive fummie .. has the chutzpah to say that he
"doesn't buy Trump's professed support for Jews" 

ignoring the fact that Trump is unquestionably the best friend the Jews ever had in the white house....

Keyak keeps repeating the lie, the mantra of the extreme left "regressive" Jews , that Trump 
"is, and remains fundamentally dangerous."

Mr. Shorty Pants, will be working for Biden who has the backing of the three biggest anti-Semites in congress, Tlaib, Omar and AOC. and on May 19 of this year, just two months ago, 
Biden openly told Jewish Donors that he "would reverse Trump's Israel policies that damages the chances of peace with the Palestinians."

On June 22 1982, Joe Biden then a Senator from Delaware, confronted the then Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin during his Senate Foreign Relations committee testimony, and threatened to cut off aid to Israel. 

Begin forcefully responded,

 “Don’t threaten us with cutting off your aid. It will not work. I am not a Jew with trembling knees. I am a proud Jew with 3,700 years of civilized history. Nobody came to our aid when we were dying in the gas chambers and ovens. Nobody came to our aid when we were striving to create our country. We paid for it. We fought for it. We died for it. We will stand by our principles. We will defend them. And, when necessary, we will die for them again, with or without your aid.”

 Comes this little pisher, Aaron Keyak who is in way over his head, to push Joe Biden onto the Jewish community... 

You know what, my sweet Areleh.....?
 push your own family into the ovens .....

Shalva Zalfreund 64 Dies of Covid After Begging Parents of Toddlers to Respect Regulations

A kindergarten worker from the central city of Petah Tikva died of COVID-19 on Friday, two weeks after she sent a message to parents asking them to respect the regulations to stop the spread of the coronavirus, and not send sick children to the daycare.

“I am in an at-risk group [for infection]. The authorities know with certainty about families who violated isolation or did not follow the instructions to not send children [to kindergarten when they] have a family member in isolation in their home,” wrote Shalva Zalfreund, 64.

“It is true that isolation for a small child is an unpleasant experience, but it passes in two weeks and in that one moment we can be partners to really save lives and educate our children to respect others,” Zalfreund told the parents.

“For me, it no longer matters who I contracted it from and who violated isolation. I just beg and plead for the grandparents, neighbors and older relatives who surround us and do not deserve to die, even if they have underlying illnesses,” she wrote.

Zalfreund said she had been told by “qualified sources” that she had been infected at the municipal kindergarten, but it was unclear how this could be confirmed.

Petah Tikva Mayor Rami Greenfeld eulogized Zalfreund as “an amazing teacher who educated many children in the city.”
