Watch how the pro-boycott-divestment-sanction Israel (BDS) thugs try to bully and intimidate the folks attending the Christians United for Israel Summit. This is the kind of intimidation that pro-Israel Americans are forced to endure on a regular basis, particularly on college campuses.
The First Amendment rights of pro-Israel Americans continue to be violated, because the Democrats in Congress refuse to support any kind of meaningful anti-BDS legislation, out of fear of angering their anti-Israel voters. In the intern pro-Israel Americans are being terrorized.
The Democrat Party’s capitulation to the BDS Movement will eventually result in someone being seriously hurt or maybe even killed. #Jexodus.

VIDEO: Anti-Israel Protesters Surround and Try To Intimidate Journalist Outside CUFI Summit
Protesters approached me, surrounded me, held keffiyehs and signs in my face. On multiple occasions, I had to tell the people getting in my face not to touch me or I would call the police.
By Legal Insurrection, July 8, 2019:
My write up from last week, Investigation: Anti-Israel groups plan disruption of Christians United for Israel Annual Summit presents background on the campaign’s four co-sponsoring group and covers the first report of Counter CUFI’s plan to stage a planned disruption inside the summit. My post from yesterday, Anti-Israel groups lock down planning for disruption inside Christians United For Israel Summit, recounts my efforts to report on Counter CUFI’s “Nonviolent direct action training and preparation”— and how Counter CUFI organizers expelled me from the public event.
As we expected, protesters gathered outside the CUFI venue. While they posted tightly cropped video and photos to make it appear that there was a large crowd, in fact only about 100 people showed up.

There also were the obligatory attempts to “blockade” the doors to the venue, but it was all for show. Thousands of people entered the summit through other entrances and the venue was packed.

As planned, some protesters managed to infiltrate the venue and engage in disruptions, which if anything just excited the pro-Israel crowd even more.

Another interruption, this one featuring a member of the group Queers Against Israeli Apartheid, resulted in the disruptor being escorted out of the hall.

Meanwhile, FOSNA executive director Tarek Abuata stole the show with a rousing disruption during which he forced security to carry him bodily from the building as he shrieked that “people of god” should “wake up” and that “Zionism is racism”. FOSNA tries to present itself as the voice of reason and compassion, but look at the hateful shrieks of its executive director.

Outside, the group had moved to the back entrance to the building, conveniently located in an area with zero outside foot traffic, and thus almost completely hidden from public view. Some group members continued to sing and wave banners, while others banged on the glass walls with their fists.
By this time, I had arrived at the venue. After the planning meeting that was the subject of our first post, we were informed that Tarek Abuata, the Executive Director of FOSNA, had coached would-be protesters on how to respond if asked whether they supported Hamas. Abuata reportedly explained that he would practice non-violence, but that he would refuse to condemn Hamas or Hezbollah.
So I decided to ask the protesters, did they support Hamas and Hezbollah?
You can view my complete, unedited 26 minute video here.
Below is an excerpt, which shows how soon after my arrival, word spread that I was associated with Legal Insurrection. One protester even pulled up the prior Legal Insurrection post on his cell phone and asked me if I was Samantha.

Hitler and his brown shirt henchmen must be holding their aching sides laughing at the irony of those snowflake storm troopers acting against the interests of the Israeli state and Jewish people in America [of all places].
This spectacle can be explained away by rebranding it as “legit demonstration of political opposition” but in reality, that’s the same as smearing lipstick on a pig, those moronic little halfwits lacked only a suitable period uniform.
That crowd has a mental block over both 9/11 and the Fogel massacre at Itamar, that should be to their disgrace and a burden on the conscience of the rest of the country for allowing it to develop and bear such bitter fruit..

Interesting how little media coverage this has received. I guarantee that if protesters targeted a pro-Islamic event, it would be the news story of the year! I am also fascinated as to the pathological obsession these dopes have with Israel. The irony here is that what they allege happens in Israel, in fact does not, but actually DOES take place throughout the Muslim world and other places like China, but no protests. Just proves that they don’t really care about “human rights” or even the so-called “Palestinians”; they simply hate Jews.
On a related note, a conservative (non-Jewish) radio, TV, media personality went to Israel and said that when there were no cameras or microphones around, the so-called “Palestinians” confided in him that they really hope Israel wins. They know that Israel is the best and freest place in the Muslim world for ALL people!

They are aided by the dumb , ignorant Left/Liberal loons coming out of colleges/schools run by pro-jihadi left/liberal loons
And by the time they realise their stupidity they get assaulted , gang raped or murdered like this couple its too late for them http://offtrade.net/cnmnews/libs-say-evil-is-myth/
Problem is they enable evil while not able to see evil thanks to pro-jihadi left/liberal indoctrination in schools/colleges where real history of islam and America is no longer taught.

We all have goals to reach even so we somewhere get lost in this today’s fast paced life. Let’s force your dreams occur true by helping out to gather atleast $11000 month. An On-line occupation that operates for your requirements and earns for you. It gives you flexibility to work at any location and take care of everyday living in your own way. It gives freedom to spend time every day with all your family members and ability to reach all your dreams. It is hard to depend upon it because its huge offering still its absolutely true. It is certainly not a gimmick or scam but an opportunity to simply turn everything the way you wished for. Home based and make dollars. Give it a shot and make that try really worth >>>> landmassvanilla.ballern.de

It’s easy to do the popular thing or the easy thing. CUFI braves the mobs and the bullhorns to do the right thing.

All together now: “Four legs good, 2 legs bad”…All together now, “Power to the people…etc and ad nauseum. I guess some people never grew a mind and are only capable of bleating the doxy du jour as dictated by their masters. God I miss the days when schools actually embraced critical thinking as the first pillar of intellect and reasoning..

Surprised that Omar, Tlaib, AOC and Pressly didn’t show up for the demonstration. I suppose they had bigger fish to fry than give publicity to CUFI?
