The suicide squad of Jews arrive on campus

Vladimir Lenin reportedly devised the term “useful idiots” to describe people who propagandize for a cause without understanding its nature or goals.

Useful Ultra Orthodox idiots

It perfectly fits the small number of radical Jews who support Hamas, by supporting pro-Hamas protests. 

I would characterize these Jews as chickens who side with KFC. They are Judaism’s suicide squad.

Every village has its idiots, and Jews are not exempt. Every community has its traitors. Every community has its fanatics.

The last category includes a fringe sect of ultra Orthodox anti-Israel Jews. You heard me right. 

They are small, but they are noisy, they seek attention. Like its best-known sect, Neturei Karta, they believe that the state of Israel would be reborn with the arrival of the Messiah, and since there was no ecclesiastic miracle, the Jewish homeland is not legitimate.

The vast majority of Orthodox Jews, in Israel and in the Diaspora, accept Israel’s legitimacy without question. As a side note, despite not recognizing the state of Israel, the anti-Zionist hypocrites accept state subsidies from Israel to survive, because most of these kosher clowns do not work. 

On the secular side, the Inquirer identified Jewish Voice for Peace Philadelphia, Rabbis for Ceasefire, Jews for Ceasefire, and Tikkun Olam Chavurah, led by Rabbi Linda Holtzman, a well-known social justice warrior, as joining the pro-Hamas side.

These groups staged a disgraceful Passover seder on the Penn campus, because — in their minds — Passover is a celebration of the Jews’ liberation from Pharaoh, and the Gazans need liberating.

Disgraceful because Hamas is Pharaoh.

Actually, far worse. Pharaoh just enslaved Jews, he didn’t rape, burn, kidnap, behead, and murder them. 

What these simple-minded Jews don’t understand is Hamas would cut their stupid heads off — and publish videos of it.

Holtzman is an open lesbian. How long would she last in Hamas’ hands? Hamas despises gays, as it despises democracy, Jews, liberal enlightenment, and America. This is the side they support?

The presence of Jewish Benedict Arnolds is not new.

More than 20 years ago, without 34,000 dead Gazans, groups like the ones above picketed the Israeli consulate on John F. Kennedy Boulevard in Philly every Friday. Another group was the Bubby Brigade, which actually has picketed the Anti-Defamation League.

I know this because I covered some of their demonstrations on JFK. 

I don’t think it is coincidental that the protests began after Israeli voters, after three decades of rule by left-wing Labor, turned toward right-wing Likud.

The protestors are all products of the hard Left, which liked Israel better when it was filled with utopian socialist kibbutzs, rather than the freewheeling capitalism it has adopted. They don’t seem to understand that Israel is vulnerable to attack at any moment, as Oct. 7 tragically proved.

Let’s be clear: Opposing the right-wing government of Benyamin Netanyahu is not anti-Israel nor anti-Semitic. A great majority of  Israelis, according to polling, want him gone (even if they approve of the war against Hamas).

Wanting a temporary ceasefire — to permit release of hostages and to increase humanitarian aid — is a worthy goal. But I see almost no mention on college campuses of the hostages who have been held for more than 200 days. Students’ demand for a “ceasefire” would leave the murderers, arsonists, and rapists of Hamas in charge.

U.S. policy is that Hamas must not be allowed to govern Gaza.

It is not anti-Semitic to criticize Israel for its conduct of the war. I have said Israel’s actions were unusually and uncharacteristically heavy-handed. There is no excuse for targeting civilians in what they were told was a safe zone. There is no reason for the long delays in getting humanitarian relief to starving civilians.

I know some argue that Hamas may grab the supplies. That may be true, but that is on them, and will further turn Gazans against them, as is already happening. I expect Israel to do the right thing and I am disappointed when it doesn’t.

But I will never express my anger through the megaphone of genocidal Jew killers, which is Hamas’ calling card. You are known by the company you keep.

It’s bad enough when clueless students do it, but when Jews who should know better do it, that’s what’s called in Yiddish a shanda, something shameful.
