The PLO Antisemitic Riots and Jihadization of American Cities are an Immigration Issue



In 2015, The Atlantic ran a cover story titled, "Is It Time for the Jews to Leave Europe?"

In 2021, the question is whether it’s time for the Jews to leave New York and Los Angeles.

The magazine cover story mentioned Malmo. Most stories about antisemitism in Europe reference the Swedish city whose Jewish population dropped from 3,000 to barely 800. Current estimates are that Malmo will have no Jews left by the end of the decade as its population flees Muslim mob violence, firebombings, and random assaults: including 100 aimed at its sole rabbi.

“I hear students shouting in the hallway about killing Jews,” a public school teacher described. Firebombs are routinely thrown at Jewish institutions. Mobs have torn down gates to try to smash their way inside. A Swedish journalist who conducted a hidden camera investigation of what happens to anyone visibly Jewish was harassed within moments of sitting down to eat.

Americans who wondered how this could happen in Europe are now seeing it at home.

There’s nothing confusing about ‘how’ or ‘why’. Or as a CBC article about Malmo gingerly put it, “Anti-Semitism in Malmö reveals flaws in Swedish immigration system”. There are equally big flaws in our immigration system and too many Jewish groups have wasted time on outreach instead of working toward immigration reform to stop the ‘Malmoization’ of New York and LA.

Estimates of the size of the Muslim population in the United States doubled since 9/11.

Islamists claim that there are over 750,000 Muslim settlers in New York City, making up around 9% of the population, and operating hundreds of mosques across the five boroughs. Those numbers may be overstated, but there’s no denying that there are far more Muslims now. And much of the growth has happened at the lower end leading to a large young male population.

The viral videos of antisemitic attacks by mobs of young Muslim men are the outcome.

Like many European cities, New York City now has a large, angry population of young Muslim men who are looking to lash out. And Jews are an easy target. When Waseem Awawdeh was arrested over a vicious assault on a Jewish accountant, he declared, “If I could do it again, I would do it again,” and then received a hero's welcome on his release.

New York City now hosts the largest Muslim population in the country. Los Angeles, the scene of more antisemitic mob attacks, hosts another of the country’s largest Muslim populations. Before 9/11, there were less than 100,000 Muslims in Los Angeles County. Even accounting for Islamist overestimates, the number has grown significantly.

Like NYC, LA is becoming ‘Malmoized’.

There are still enough Jews in both cities that the Democrat politicians offer token condemnations and ask the local police to make a few arrests. As the demographics continue to shift away from Jews and toward Muslims, they’ll react the way that Ilmar Reepalu, Malmo's former mayor did, when he blamed Israel for the antisemitic attacks on Jews by Muslims.

The AOC crowd already echoes this type of rhetoric on social media. And George Soros, who funds much of the American Left, had made this exact argument two decades ago. “Attitudes toward the Jewish community are influenced by the pro-Israel lobby’s success in suppressing divergent views,” the former Nazi collaborator had argued.

But that’s only to be expected of an antisemitic movement. American Jews however spent a generation watching European Jews being driven out and did little with that time. After all these years of consuming articles about the fate of the Jews of Paris, Berlin, and Malmo, they went on supporting mass Muslim migration because they were told it was the right thing to do.

When President Trump tried to implement a ban on travel from Muslim terror states, the ZOA became the only Jewish organization to file a Supreme Court brief in defense of the move.

The ADL signed on to every HIAS push against the move to protect Americans from Islamic terror, alongside anti-Israel groups like J Street, Soros' Bend the Arc, and T'ruah. HIAS, T’ruah, and Avodah, a feeder group for the anti-Israel movement funded by Steven Spielberg, showed up to a Linda Sarsour protest. Rallying for Muslim migration mattered more than antisemitism.

While Orthodox Jews stayed out of the protests, not counting Uri L’Tzedek, a component of the heretical leftist Yeshivat Chovevei Torah crowd, the Orthodox Union’s Nathan Diament put out a shameful statement comparing Syrian migrants to Jews fleeing the Nazi Holocaust.

Fortunately, the National Council of Young Israel took a stand, calling the obscene analogy “highly offensive to those Jews who survived Nazi persecution.”

As I wrote at the time, “when one of Diament’s migrants attacks Jews, they will not be able to say, ‘Our hands did not shed this blood and our eyes did not see it.’” Now the blood is being shed and the OU is co-signing letters calling for an antisemitism monitor as if the problem lies in a lack of monitoring rather than the inevitable crisis of Islamist immigration and demographics.

American Jews have followed the same failed strategy as European Jews.

"After two Muslim teenagers attempted to set fire to Malmo’s synagogue last March, HaCohen and Barakat telephoned their school principal, then visited the class the next day to discuss the incident. 'We did not point out the kids,' Barakat says, explaining they used the time to give a lesson about anti-Semitism, rather than punish them,” a Time Magazine article cheerfully notes.

The suicidal hobby of handing out lessons about antisemitism to synagogue burners continues.

Integrating the fight against antisemitism into broader leftist movements against bigotry has failed miserably because the central premise of intersectionality and anti-racism is that some people, privileged white people in general and Jews in particular, deserve to be hated.

The collapse of a liberal middle class into dueling Marxist and Fascist youth mobs is mainstreaming antisemitism in America the way that it already has in Europe. But the heavy lifting will still be done by young men whose parents came here from Iraq, Pakistan, or Gaza that we’ve seen assaulting random Jewish people in New York and Los Angeles.

The cries of “Kill Jews, Free Palestine” are not a horrid aberration: they’re the new normal.

The one thing that could have stopped this and perhaps still might would be for American Jews to be willing to say the unspeakable: that some people belong in this country and others don’t.

The idea that immigration should be a mutual social contract instead of a suicide pact is profoundly alien to everything that millions of Americans, Jews and Christians, have absorbed over the years. Beyond the Christian churches and HIAS which lobby to resettle more Islamists in America, much of the country is wedded to the idea that we must take anyone who comes.

But when we take anyone who comes, then we’re the ones who get taken for a ride.

While our streets are filled with the homeless and unemployed Americans are dying of drug overdoses at record rates, churches and temples lecture their parishioners on their moral duty to bring more Iraqis, Syrians, and Pakistanis to America. But 9/11 and the occasional terror attack in a major city are just the appetizers of Islamist demographic colonization.

The next stage, mob violence by what the European press carefully calls “angry youths”, is now underway in New York and Los Angeles. It won’t stop there. The era of the “lone wolf” Jihadi hasn’t ended yet, but the future of Islamic terror in America will be group attacks, like those in Bataclan in Paris, and more routine riots and mass assaults abetted by their leftist allies.

Jews in New York City are the easiest targets, but as the Swedes or the French could tell you, or the Poles and the Czechs, it rarely ends there.

Muslim violence isn’t a response to oppression or persecution. It’s a supremacist theological mission to colonize and subjugate non-Muslims as numerous Jihadis have told us at their trials.

We chose not to take them at their word.

Israel is not the issue. Just as Mohammed cartoons, a teddy bear with the wrong name, or false reports of a desecrated Koran were not the real issues at the heart of other Muslim rampages.

When thugs and terrorists want to beat and kill people, they can always find an excuse.

Listening to their excuses and taking them seriously is almost as dumb as visiting their countries or letting them inside your country long enough for them to kill you. If we want to survive, we’re going to have to stop being dumb. Otherwise we’ll learn to live and die like they do in Malmo.

It happened in Europe. Now it’s happening here.

If American Jews want to stop antisemitism, they need to stop importing it from the antisemitic capitals of the world. Really fighting antisemitism means fighting antisemitic immigration.

Or investing in bulletproof windows while educating synagogue burners about antisemitism.

    As a Catholic kid, I heard the priest ask for
    support for “The Missions”. Jesus said to help
    people, so I dropped my quarter in the basket.
    No clue to the millennium of hatred, contempt
    within Islam and that this intrusion into stone
    age culture caused.

    Adult Americans have a duty to know the danger of
    placing a primitive, brutal, hateful savage in
    our midst. He is accorded equal rights and powers
    without earning them, and no responsibility, duty,
    gratitude, or love of country. Indeed, he fully
    despises us, we sheep who present ourselves for
    slaughter.

    Through the Renaissance, War of Independence,
    Civil War, centuries of research and scholarship,
    jurisprudence, we have lifted a Civilization we
    should highly value. It is a virtue to teach our
    children to prize. We have a sacred duty to
    allow entry only to those who share our values
    and make a major contribution.

  2. Back in the 70's there was a lot of antisemitic violence, I can't remember why any longer, but at some point a group of young Jews organized and responded, and if I remember correctly, they weren't averse to violent defense.

    Make no mistake, this isn't Europe, or the Middle East, this is America, and young American Jews are not going to sit passably sit by and let this go on without responding, and responding violently. That's the only thing Muslims understand. The long term consequences of the leftist immigration policies are going to be an cancerous metastasized infection of American civilization for decades, maybe forever.

    Islam isn't a religion, it's a criminal political movement masquerading as a religion, and needs to be declared as such, and acted on as such.

    Solution? Keep them unarmed as much as possible, keep them unfunded, and keep them over there.

  3. As I read through this, I totally agreed with it. BUT - it is the Jews themselves who are slitting their own wrists, and/or inviting others to do it. They flock to the Democrat Party. They hasten to assure everyone that they are for open borders. They adamantly seem to believe that, by embracing their enemies, they will convince them that love is love and that the Jews love them. Meanwhile, the Muslims AND the right wing Fascists joyfully make them their victims and the butt of all of their hatred. Are American Jews suicidal? Can they not learn from history? Do they not know what comes next?
    I am not Jewish but Christian, nd I DO know what comes next, and I know that they will come for us afterwards. But how can we stand for Jews if they refuse to stand for themselves?

    Thank you for stating the reality, if only for the historical record, and only if the historical record, now mostly digitized, is allowed to survive. Books, magazines, historic and current documentary videos and commentaries, speeches, opinions, and data, are being blocked and erased (we have no way to know which). In the case of colleges, schools, and libraries, materials deemed "outdated," or "misleading," or "inaccurate" are discarded, in a frenzy of censorship (aka "weeding") of people, words, photos, and data. At the top of this very article, right below the title, there is, as I write this, a big blackened rectangle where there seems to have been an accompanying video. The rectangle tells the reader in today's now dire warning, "This video has been removed for violating YouTube's Terms of Service." Our seeing documentary evidence or opinion, current or historic, that differs from the claims of the masters of the internet frightens these now ruthless, monopolistic molders of our present and our future.

  5. "The collapse of a liberal middle class into dueling Marxist and Fascist youth mobs": I thought that the real danger to US Jews is from those who march with torches and shout "Jews will not replace us". However, Trump thinks they are "fine people on both sides"

      One of the most famous selectively edited misrepresentations in political history. Trumps next words were:“I’m not talking about the neo-Nazis and white nationalists because they should be condemned totally.”
