No antisemitism here, move along, nothing to see Dept.
More on the violence against the College Republican Club by Palestinian students at the notorious San Francisco State U.Email to Andrew Sullivan:
This evening in Oslo there was a march commemorating Kristallnacht. According to TV2 News, no Norwegian Jews were present. The authorities, saying that they did not want any trouble, forbade any Jewish symbols, including Stars of David and Israeli flags. On the TV2 evening news, a group of Jews and their friends who wanted to take part in the commemoration were shown being firmly told by a policeman to "please leave the area." This in a city where Muslim demonstrations take place on a regular basis, and include signs and banners bearing hateful, barbaric slogans.This is beyond bizarre. I'm not even taken aback at the hypocrisy of allowing Muslim demonstrations but not Jewish ones; after all this is the new Europe. But the idea of commemorating an attack on Jews without allowing Jews to attend or the Jewishness of the event to be visible, is just beyond bizarre.
Elsewhere in the new Europe . . . from Roger Simon regular Catherine's notes on a lecture she attended about the situation in France:
. . . this is, apparently, a "children's war," Arab children against Jewish children, and the Arab children are winning. Jews fear for their children.Read the whole thing.
. . . One of the most frightening aspects of the situation: there is no organization that is behind these acts. None. Jewish organizations can't go to a Mosque or a Muslim political organization and demand that these acts stop. There is no 'face' on the problem.
. . . Extreme leftists, NGOs & greens are closely connected to teachers, who are all on the left, and are "indulgent" of anti-semitism. The teachers see Arab children as victims, and feel guilty.
The 3-part series BBC program "The Power of Nightmares" asserts that there is no such thing as Islamist terrorism, that it is a fantasy promoted by the neo-con cabal in Washington to further their ambitions for American empire, instructed by their teacher Leo Strauss. Yup, that's how deranged the BBC is. Melanie Phillips deconstructs the lies. I think someone should follow the money.
UPDATE: Some good news: Latest on the Presbyterian church divestment kerfluffle is that the Episcopalians, who had initially joined in the movement, are backing away slowly.

I hate to sound a cliche here, but I think we've arrived at the moment when Europe's Jews should start moving to Israel and American Jews should start loudly withdrawing their donations from their country's universities.

And maybe they should stop voting for the politicians who enable these creeps. (Sorry for being a Yoni-one-note.)
I agree with benjamin, but I have a nagging thought about Europe: Why is simply leaving the only alternative to being murdered? Don't European Jews have a right to stay there? Do they have to be total pacifists?

I have to wonder if the Brits believe the BBC anymore. Current events in the Netherlands have already proven that this 'documentary' is a lie.
As one man said, "Not even the most tolerant people on earth can tolerate the Islamists."
