Demonstrating For Mass Murder

Around the world, the ignorant and the downright evil turned out today to celebrate the anniversary of Hamas’s October 7 massacres.

Across more than 80 U.S. cities, protesters gathered for demonstrations that were largely characterized by explicit support for terror, including the October 7 attack itself.

Beginning on Monday, October 7, National Students for Justice in Palestine (NSJP) is organizing a “Week of Rage” related to the anniversary, with dozens of chapters nationwide slated to participate with walkouts and other events on college campuses.

At the October 5 and 6 protests, praise for terrorists and terrorism was front and center — on the materials displayed by protesters and in spoken remarks. Speakers and attendees lauded Hamas and other U.S.-designated terrorist groups like Hezbollah in Lebanon and the Houthis (Ansar Allah) in Yemen for their attacks against Israel over the past year.

In New York, thousands of pro-Hamas demonstrators marched to Grand Central Station, clashing with police along the way.

One brave pro-Israel counter-demonstrator tried to stand up to the anti-Semitic mob:

A pro-Israeli demonstrator was surrounded, attacked and bloodied by a pro-Palestinian crowd Monday, as thousands mobbed the streets of Manhattan on the first anniversary of the Oct. 7 terror attack on the Jewish State.

Todd Richman, co-founder Democratic Majority of Israel, was seen on social media holding an Israeli flag while a mob of protesters mock him — and try to wrest the flag away from him.

Richman is seen trying desperately trying to stand his ground as the keffiyeh-draped protesters mock and accost him.

“Get the f–k off the flag,” he is heard saying. “Get off it.”

The mob then gangs up on him, with one striking Rochman and leaving him with a bloody nose.

Police finally move in and disperse the crowd, which is heard shouting, “Get out of here,” and one calling him “a baby killer.”

That last is rich, given the number of babies that were slaughtered by Gazans on October 7. But anti-Semites are not known for being in contact with reality.

Next, to Columbia University, a hotbed of anti-Semitism over the past year:

Hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters staged a walkout on Low Plaza on Monday organized by Columbia University Apartheid Divest as part of Within Our Lifetime’s call to demonstrate throughout New York City on Oct. 7.

Before the walkout, pro-Palestinian demonstrators continued their daily vigil, reading the names of over 50,000 Palestinians killed in the war in Gaza since Oct. 7, 2023. Protesters held banners reading “We will honor all our martyrs,” “Free Gaza free speech,” and “Break the chains and let them fall.”

Most of those alleged 50,000 are Hamas terrorists, as the deranged students who idolize them must know.

These protesters claim to oppose genocide, but there is only one attempted genocide going on in the Middle East. That is the effort by Iran and its minions, Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis, to murder all of Israel’s Jews. The October 7 massacres are a template to be replicated over and over, as Hezbollah was poised to carry out until the unfortunate incident of the pagers.

In the above photo, note also the slogan “From the US to Palestine, Abolish the Settler State.” This illustrates a point I have made many times: the people who hate Israel hate America more. We are the Great Satan, and there are only two “settler states” in world history, the US and Israel. That ideology, insane as it may be, is about to be taught to kindergarteners in Minnesota, if Tim Walz gets his way.

The above link goes to Columbia’s student newspaper, which is pro-Hamas. Thus, the couple of guys who stand up to the pro-baby murderers and pro-gang rapers are violating Columbia’s policies:

As the protesters walked down the west side of Low Library to return to Low Plaza—chanting “One, we are the people, two, we won’t stop fighting, three, we want divestment now, now, now”—Shai Davidai, assistant professor at the Business School, stood in the middle of the crowd, yelling at a Public Safety official standing behind him that the protesters were “blocking my movement.”

Davidai recorded the protesters on his phone and continued to remain inside the crowd. After all the protesters passed the area, an individual who was standing next to Davidai during the altercation said “You know that these are fucking terrorists on campus, honestly, terrorists. They’re straight-up fucking jihadi terrorists.”

According to examples outlined in Columbia’s antidiscrimination policy implemented on Sept. 23, calling students “terrorists” and “jihad supporters” may constitute a violation of the policy if tied to students’ shared ancestry or ethnic characteristics.

Before we leave Columbia, I can’t resist one more:

The protesters joined hands and chanted “It is our duty to fight for our freedom. It is our duty to win. We must love and protect one another. We have nothing to lose but our chains.”

“We have nothing to lose but our chains.” Possibly a new low in lack of self-awareness. Without belaboring the point, let’s just say that Columbia University students are not exactly “in chains.”

To pay attention to anti-Semitic mobs is to dwell in a world of unreality. So let’s conclude by remembering the horror of October 7. The reality that the anti-Semites are celebrating. The Telegraph has a heartbreaking story about the victims of Gazan terror on October 7. It includes an interview with an Israeli woman who, in keeping with Jewish custom, prepared for burial the bodies of women murdered by the terrorists who were celebrated in today’s demonstrations:

The women were shot many times in the head. “Why? Why? We saw that these women were shot to be killed, maybe in the heart, in the head, but then they were shot many times in the face, and it looked like systematic mutilation because it seemed like they wanted to ruin these women’s faces. A lot of them were young soldier women, and a lot of them had been very beautiful. The first few we saw weren’t too bad because they might have been caught in their sleep and Hamas just shot them. But, after a while, we got women who had clearly been awake when they were murdered and these women came in and their mouths, their teeth were in grimaces and their hands were clenched, if they had hands.

“We got notified that a woman’s coming in and she has no legs, so the terrorist cut off her legs. There was clearly immense sadistic violence.” A lot of the women had bloody, stained underwear, Shari says, some had no underwear at all. “People were shot in the breast, they were shot in the crotch, and that was not done to kill them.” She is a calm, thoughtful person, but her voice is stiff with anger now.

One body Shari dealt with personally still had a knife stuck through her mouth. “There was so much violence and it was totally sexual.”

The perpetrators of the mass murder–worse than mass murder, really–are today being celebrated around the world by those who love evil. Sadly, there are quite a few in that category.

A final word from the woman who prepared Israeli bodies for burial:

Of all the young women whose bodies she took care of and prepared for burial, how many were in a fit state to be shown to their parents?

There is total silence in the room, except for the ticking of a clock on the kitchen wall. I pat the dog beside me, pressing my hand deep into his fur to bring me back to this world and away from that place where jihadi psychopaths annihilate the faces of young women for kicks.

Shari looks at me. I can’t tell if her eyes are full of sorrow or glittering with rage. “None,” she says at last. “Not one girl we could show to her parents.”
