Newsweek: “Because of Trump, People Are Burning Israeli Flags and Attacking Jews”

48

Unconscionable. This shows how morally inverted the establishment media is. Muslims riot and attack Jews and burn flags, and it’s Donald Trump’s fault. What did Trump do? He recognized reality — that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel. Is that some moral evil? No. It is simply a fact. Muslims did not have to burn Israeli flags and attack Jews in response to Trump’s announcement. They chose to do that. They weren’t forced. When they chose to do this, it wasn’t Trump’s fault. It was theirs, and theirs only.

But the enemedia is out of control and increasingly unhinged in its desperation to bring down Trump. They are even blaming Trump for the Port Authority jihad bombing, saying it was because of Trump’s announcement, when the bomber had, in fact, been planning this for weeks, long before the announcement.

“Because of Trump, People Are Burning Israeli Flags and Attacking Jews,” by Cristina Maza, Newsweek, December 11, 2017 (thanks to Mark):

Story continues below advertisement

At least a dozen people were charged for incidents related to anti-Semitism after hundreds gathered in Germany’s capital on Sunday and burned Israeli flags to protest President Donald Trump’s decision to declare Jerusalem the capital of Israel.

People who stir up hatred against Jews or Israel also are attacking the German constitution, Germany’s Foreign Minister Sigmar Gabriel told German media after at least 10 people were arrested during the protests.

“Any kind of anti-Semitism is an attack on everyone. Anti-Semitism must never be allowed to have a place [in society] again,” Gabriel said.

Anti-Semitism and hate speech are very serious offenses in Germany due to the country’s role in the death of around 6 million Jews during the Holocaust. Germany has strict laws banning Nazi symbols and what Germans call volksverhetzung, which roughly translates to hate speech or incitement of the people.

Police brought charges against at least 12 people during Sunday’s protests, dubbed the Day of Rage, which took place outside the U.S. embassy in Berlin.

People were protesting Trump’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Half of Jerusalem had been envisioned as the future capital of a Palestinian state, if a two-state solution were reached between Israel and Palestine. For many across the Middle East, Trump’s announcement on Wednesday put an end to any chance of a peace agreement by giving Israel what it wanted most without extracting any concessions.

Protests in Palestine and the Middle East over the last five days left four Palestinians dead and hundreds injured. Meanwhile, the State Department issued a safety warning for Americans traveling abroad, and the weekend saw an uptick in anti-Semitic attacks.

Three people were arrested in Sweden on Sunday for allegedly throwing firebombs at a synagogue in the city of Gothenburg. It was the second anti-Jewish attack in Sweden in just two days, and took place as people gathered to protest Trump’s Jerusalem announcement….

In Germany the PC-‘politicans’ pay only lip services

‘Government of shame … But only a few days ago, Israeli flags were burned in Berlin, calling for the slaughter of Jews https://sunnah.com/bukhari/56/138-139 and the destruction of Israel. https://sunnah.com/muslim/54/101-105 This was followed by unctuous phrases of the politically responsible, currently managing Germany destroyers.’
… (lunatic clown – one cannot explain logically) Thomas de Maizière (CDU federal Interior ‘Minister’) criticized the
burning of Israeli flags, assuring that they feel
“very much in tune
with the state of Israel and all the people of the Jewish faith.” “We do not accept if Jews or the State of Israel are insulted in this shameful way,”
he explained. …’
At the same time de maizire stands behind iSSlam https://quran.com/3/141 -> 8/17 http://translate.google.com.br/translate?hl=pt-BR&sl=de&tl=en&u=http://www.pi-news.net/regierung-der-schande-neue-judenhass-demos-genehmigt/

They clearly are setting the stage for the murder of Jews. And if you state that it’s Muslims, acting on the Koran, and being true to their ideology, then you stand to be arrested and imprisoned. Until they prosecute and imprison all those who call for the death of Jews, then they are essentially promoting the death of Jews, and the spread of Islam.

“When people criticize Zionists, they mean Jews. You’re talking anti-Semitism.”
~ Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

“The response of some of the so-called young militants does not represent the position of the vast majority of Negroes. There are some who are color-consumed and they see a kind of mystique in blackness or in being colored, and anything non-colored is condemned. We do not follow that course …

“Peace for Israel means security, and we must stand with all our might to protect her right to exist, its territorial integrity and the right to use whatever sea lanes it needs. Israel is one of the great outposts of democracy in the world, and a marvelous example of what can be done, how desert land can be transformed into an oasis of brotherhood and democracy.

“Peace for Israel means security, and that security must be a reality.”

Another day, another protest, another call for the death of Jews and Christians. Another day of violence and hatred. muslims protest / scream / blame, as does the left. Blame, blame, blame. Victim victim victim.

muslims have been doing it for 1,400 years. Let’s just keep pointing out the facts and the truth about Islam. And ridiculing and laughing at the absolute ludicrous statements of the left / MSM / muslims.

It does seem that the only answer to Islam, the only ‘solution’ to Islam, is to destroy it. After 1,400 years, hundreds of millions dead at the hands of Muslims, and zero indications of even the remotest ‘moderation’ of it … what else does a civilized people do, who wish to keep their civilization? Hopefully those civilized people retain the common sense and clarity of thinking to see Islam for what it is. Yet most Europeans seem unable to see it — civilized nations who have been somehow stripped of the ability to defend themselves against those who are bent on destroying them through different means than outright war — so far. The same dangers face America. There are some fundamental differences between America, and Europe / Canada / Australia — primarily that we have guns, and believe in self-defense, and we don’t necessarily trust the government at all …! At least there are millions of us who still feel and believe this way.

We have very interesting times ahead of us … lol!

Winning: More Arab Bickering Over US Embassy Move
Jordan’s king Abdullah sat down with King Salman on his arrival in Riyadh Tuesday. DEBKA’s sources report that the sour relations between Amman and Riyadh slumped still further as Jordanian lawmakers hurled abuse at Saudi Arab for its mild reaction to President Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as the Israeli capital. The Saudi Crown Prince recently cut off Saudi financial aid to Jordan. Abdullah tried to pour oil on the quarrel and also to persuade the king to send a high-ranking delegation to the Islamic summit called by Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan, which is due to open in Istanbul Wednesday. Erdogan mocked Muslim rulers who have declined his invitation accusing them of being scared of Washington.

Interesting that ‘stiring up hate’ is now against the constitution. The left is so daft, they are even wrong in the rare cases when they are a bit right.

Instead of blaming President Trump for that, they should better blame all his cowardly and flaky predecessors for not recognizing that fact of reality much earlier and thus helped to implant illusion in Arab (“palestinian”) psyche that they “own” something which is not theirs and imagining who-knows-what as a result. And now when reality is crashing down on them, it hurts. They really owe to so called “palestinian” apology for allowing them to live in that fiction a way too long!

Why should muslums living in Eurapia care that a US president declares Jerusalem the capital of Israel? They’re supposed to be citizens of their various new countries in Eurapia. What Trump and Israelis do has no bearing on their lives in Eurapia at all.

Do you think that the mosque put on the Temple mound might have been done in hate for Jews, placed there as a conquering symbol? In any case, both Obama and Clinton stated that Jerusalem was the Israeli capital when they were President (I watched the videos) so what is the problem? Besides, aren’t we talking about only a handful of extremists and not the vast moderate majority? (sarcasm) So again, where’s the problem?

Compared to the totally deranged / self loathing left, jihady muzlims are nothing short of cool headed rationality…

The top 1000 influential “progressives” / globalists (in politics, MSM, big business, the ‘Deep State’, the judiciary, academia, the entertainment & arts establishments, NGO’s / think tanks etc) are 1000 times more dangerous to the future of the free world / “The West”, then ~1.6 Billion savage / primitive / ultra violent / Anti Christian / Antisemitic / blood thirsty / sex crazed / zealous Muslims will ever be…

One thing (among several others) in common between ‘burn the Jews in ovens’ Nazis, Muslims and “progressives”, is that they are all visceral / virulent / foaming on the mouth like rabid dogs, Antisemites

The Antisemitic “progressive” “Jews” a.k.a JINO’s (Jews In Name Only), are even worse then non Jewish “progressives” which are just the usual, run of the mill Antisemites, while the “progressive” “Jews”, have the additional evil streak of back stabbing treachery, running in their hollow soul

President Trump inherited a hell of a mess created by predecessors who either actively screwed things up or sat on their dead ass and watched it go to hell. All Trump did was wage war on the status quo.

He is like a college football coach taking over a flagging program. Their is so much he must undo while in the process of installing some winning ways.
