(May 22, 2025) — “I’m going to go for now.” – The silence of Ilhan Omar ignoring the Jewish murders.
Shots rang out in the Washington sky and Jewish blood was spilled outside the Jewish Museum last night. The weapon was deployed by an infected zombie. It wasn’t gunpowder that fueled the bullets that murdered the beautiful Israeli couple. It was an ancient hatred newly modernized. Sarah Milgrim and Yaron Lischinsky, two Israeli Embassy staffers, were about to be engaged but now they will be forever together. Their spilled blood was ritually collected, even from the cracks in the stone where they fell, and will be buried along with their bodies.
The hatred of antisemitism has been bubbling into a mad boil since the October 7, 2023 terrorist invasion of Israel when Hamas deliberately slaughtered 1195 people and took hundreds of innocents as hostages. Instead of the world standing strong against this travesty, the infection of hatred against Jewish people festered onto college campuses. Rich students cowardly confront fellow Jewish students while incurring $90K annual tuition to don keffiyehs and hide behind masks which are the new uniform of Hitler’s Brownshirts. The cancer is spreading. Uniformed armed police now protect Jewish services in Prescott and Tucson, Arizona. It is probably everywhere. The Democratic Party which had been a bulwark in supporting Jews is now becoming permanently crippled into obscurity and dissolution with fetid haters like Ilhan Omar.
Israel has been the bright burning candle that illuminates the Middle East as well as the world. It uses irrigation pipes to transform desert into paradise whereas Hamas uses the same pipes to construct rocket launchers. Their democracy which embraces both Jews and Arabs is to be celebrated unlike the many tyrannies which surround it. Hatred blinds even the educated.
Christians, Jews, and Muslims need to condemn this growing hatred in America and proudly stand up and proclaim that we are all Jewish today. For the three people who have never seen “Schindler’s List,” today is the perfect opportunity to watch and learn about redemption from the monstrous jaws of antisemitism. Everyone else should rewatch Spielberg’s masterpiece and remember how hatred will eventually metastasize to destroy all people.
The wayward Keffiyeh KidsTM must be sternly reprimanded for wearing masks where anonymity is a cancer for creating mobs. Just ask the KKK. Students hurling insults to Jews is just the latest fad where many of them will eventually become Wall Street insiders with nice tidy homes. All foreign students who support the terrorist organization Hamas must have their visas revoked and they must leave America. Debate with passionate sentences is strongly encouraged but burning buildings are to be met with prison sentences. Infections must be dealt with early or else the entire body can be lost.
Remember that if they can come for Jews today that they will come for you tomorrow. This has been repeated throughout history. It is time to stand with your voice, your feet and your vote.
We all are Jewish today. “Shabbat Shalom” (Peaceful Sabbath) tomorrow.
Let’s hope Trump’s threat to withhold funds from Harvard or to suspend foreign-student education visas to Harvard works! But if the lawyered-up, wealthy university doesn’t respond and believes it can win in court, perhaps enough students, both American and foreign, can eventually withdraw their applications or fail to apply. The repercussions won’t be felt immediately, since it takes time for a bad reputation to spread and take hold. But the verdict will come from the people, from Jews and non-Jews alike: “Antisemitism will not stand!” Furthermore, it is dangerous for the welfare of our country, like it was for England, France, Spain, Italy, and above all, Germany!
Good article, Tom! Thanks!
Right over the target.
We need to do the same and end it once and for all.
Any talk of a possible peace is impossible; surely we all can see that.
If they can see it, and that’s their goal, why can’t we?.
Go after them, night and day, from the mountain tops to the deepest cave.
No rest .
Do it to them before they continue to do it to us.
I am Jewish today and always and all ways stand with my Jewish sisters and brothers.
We need justice now!
Jewish to Christian we are all God’s children.
You summed it up perfectly, Tom.
