Simon was kidnapped, sold as a slave to an Arab family and lived in brutal slavery for the next three and a half years before he managed to escape. More in this intro to Simon:
One MILLION Sudanese are expected to die due to famine. Over 50,000 killed in 2024 to date, mostly civilians. Where is the outcry? Campus protests? Black Lives Matter? Biden, Blinken. Hashtag Solidarity at least?
While Deng, a victim of child slavery spoke to the rally …. the always offensive Crackhead Barney, a muslim-american (real name Fauziya Suni) whose parents immigrated from Nigeria... mocked and crashed the event.
“BARNEY” should choose her “DaDa” street theatre improvs more carefully.“Dadaism’s main purpose was to challenge the social norms of society, and purposefully make art that would shock, confuse, or outrage people.“
RESPECT thy name is NOT CrackHead Barney.
Since October 7th, Simon has used his voice to advocate for Israel. In December 2023, he led a solidarity walk from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem to bring awareness to the hostages and to the threat of radical Islamic terrorism, and to show that the South Sudanese and African communitiesstand with Israel and the Jews.
.An OPEN LETTER from Nobel Prize winning contemporary German writer, HertaMuller, maybe be too much for the ‘educated elites” to accept, to admit the necessity of this shocking wake-up call to the West – (to not turn away from) the madness that has gripped parts of Western society since Hamas attacked Israel.
“…I have the impression that the strategy ofHamas and its supporters is to make everything Israeli, and therefore everything Jewish, unbearable to the world.
Hamas wants to maintain anti-Semitism as a permanent global mood. That is why it also wants to reinterpret the Shoah. The Nazi persecution and the rescue flight to Palestine are also to be called into question. And ultimately, the right of Israel to exist.
… With all these stacked constructs, Israel is no longer seen as the only democracy in the Middle East, but as a colonialist model state. And as an eternal aggressor, against whom blind hatred is justified. And even the desire for its destruction…” [https://tinyurl.com/36zy6xc8]
The destruction of the Jews and the destruction of Israel remain the goal and desire of Hamas. Exactly the same as in Iran.
When it comes to addressing the growing global anti-Semitism, all we hear from the Friends/Quakers, Salvation Army, Hollywood celebrities .. the Do-Gooders who preach WORLD PEACE:
CRICKETS!
They can’t handle The Truth.

** While the media deals with the attack on President Trump, the anti Zionist movement does not rest. **
‘The through line of anti-Semitism for thousands of years has been the denial of truth and the promotion of lies. These lies range in scope from conspiracy theories to Holocaust denial to the blood libel to the currently popular claims that Zionism is racism, that Jews are settler colonialists, and that Jewish civilization isn’t indigenous to the land of Israel.
These lies are all part of the foundational big lie: that anti-Semitism itself is a righteous act of resistance against evil,because Jews are collectively evil and have no right to exist.
Today, the big lie is winning,” Dara Horn writes. [The Atlantic]
“US-Israeli genocide on Gaza, and the launch of a new arms embargo campaign, Mask Off Maersk“
“….68 percent of Israel’s weapons are sent from the US via logistics companies like Maersk.”
Cut Ties With GENOCIDE: CUT TIES WITH MAERSK
The Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM) members Aisha Mansour and Celine Qussiny plan to “force Maersk to stop the transportation of arms to Israel by isolating Maersk’s Israel portfolio from its overall bottom line.“
“From May 24 to May 26, thousands of students, workers, organizers, and people of conscience gathered from around the world to attend the People’s Conference for Palestine. Convening in Detroit, Michigan, home to one of the largest Arab diasporas in North America, the union town was the perfect host to a weekend brimming with revolutionary energy where participants and speakers shared ideas, assessed tactics, and strategized for a free Palestine.”

Having learned from Nerdeen Kiswani, one of their leaders who never relents, neither do the youthful members of the PYM.
“We don’t want zionists in Palestine, NYC, our schools, on the train, ANYWHERE,” Nerdeen Kiswani, founder of Within Our Lifetime, wrote on X. “This is free speech, it is saying we don’t want racists here.” (Nerdeen Kiswani)
If only they were capable of hearing and seeing the crimes of HAMAS that murdered and kidnapped so many innocents. But, these students are now cold-blooded racists, part of the legacy of the falafelstin terrorists.
June 12, 2023, 5 pm. Activists from The Jewish Leadership Project,Yad Yamin-NY and SAFE CUNY challenged the JCRC donors and leadership as they arrived for their Gala inside the NY Historical Society: “Why is the JCRC honoring Bill Thompson when Jews are under attack at CUNY. ”
Flickr slideshow
Part of the JCRC platform is the safety of the Jewish community. Yet, while anti-Semitic attacks are rising in the city along with the hostile atmosphere for Jews at CUNY the JCRC-NY was giving an award this night to the Honorable William C. Thompson Jr, the chairperson of the board of trustees at CUNY.
“CUNY brass … finally slammed her speech as unacceptable “hate speech” unfitting for a commencement — after much outcry. “Commencement speeches are supposed to be aspirational and inspirational. They are not supposed to be hateful tirades….,” said Joseph Postasnik of the New York Board of Rabbis. CUNY has to rethink its commencement exercises.”
Anti-semitism at CUNY must be addressed not honored.
.It was a small, but effective protest. The heart-felt questions demanded more effective responses from the JCRC addressing anti-Semitism at CUNY.
Some attendees were willing to talk to the protestors, some simply starred at the signs and mobile billboards as they walked in to the gala.
The messages were clear.
JCRC NY DO YOUR JOB! END Jew Hatred. End anti-Semitism at CUNY. It must be not honored!
. Stunning audio and video of an exchange between former JCRC -NY President, Ron Weiner, [https://www.pwcpa.com/ronald-weiner] who seemed to be sitting on a fence when challenged by Jeff Lax, founder of S.A.F.E. (Students and Faculty for Equality).
“(Weiner) was so outraged at being gently questioned. This means @SAFECUNY is on the right track.
Former JCRC Pres. Ron Wiener confronts and curses at SAFECUNY co-founder Professor Jeffrey Lax.
Weak Jewish leaders need to be confronted about their continual failure to strongly oppose new contemporary forms of anti-Ziosemitism. Ron Wiener’s reaction shows that this pressure works.
… this guy is a leader?? “Effective from the top down…” Cursing at Lax, invoking Second Temple disunity. All the while avoiding saying anything of substance.”
Where is the leadership from JCRC-NY? American Jews are under assault, our institutions are under siege and our leaders are failing to protect the community.
Why is JCRC-NY honoring CUNY which has normalized Jew-hatred & permits graduation speakers to target Jews? Stop BDS on Campus. End Jew Hatred.
JCRC NY leadership must be held accountable for their failures.
August 16, 2021. 4 pm. NYC.”Go to Hell Israel” was chanted by a few dozen “palestinian” anti-zionists protesting outside the Israeli consulate. Their goal today was “Globalize the Intifada”. “Show the world that while corrupt governments normalize with the enemy, the people continue to rise up against normalization and in defense of “palestine“!
There was a smaller but equally robust counter-protest as they chanted Hamas Kills Kids and Am Yisrael Chai!#JewsFightBack and #EndJewHatred
“Zionists unite across the street from the Israel Consulate. Our voices MUST be loud and strong. OUR voices must drown out the demands of the Jew-haters who call for death to Jews by calling for “Intifada”. Our Jewish pride and strength must be heard and seen from NYC to Jerusalem. Send a message to Jews around the world: Stand up! Be seen! Be heard! Send a message to Jew haters to End Jew Hatred! “

On May 11, 2021, Pro-Palestinian Rallies were held in cities world-wide, in the wake of another Israel-Hamas flare-up. Always claiming to be the victim, “palis” assembled and screamed for an eager media. (A late post, yes, but sadly the conflict goes on … )
The Emergency Rally for “palestine” was described as a “Mobilization to support “palestinian” resistance, return and liberation“. This was the largest protest of muzzies seen in quite awhile.
Fortunately, a pro-Israel counter-protest gathered across from the NYC Israeli Consulate. (the ‘palis’ were not allowed near the consulate.)
At first, the NYPD kept the ‘palis” in front of WPIX-11. Until the “palis”, like a fungus, spread across 42nd st blocking sidewalks and the street. The NYPD was confidently ignored.
As the fakenstinians chanted loudly from the south side of 42nd, lots of media covered their “Jews are evil colonizers” meme.
While”pali”-attorney, Lamis Deek, chatted up the police, she always appears to be the person-in-control. When it is time, Deek calls-the-shots
Seen here flipping off the Israelis, Deek shows how RUDE she really is.
The pali game-plan: pretend to do as arranged, knowing the police will handle the ‘fakers’ carefully, no matter what. Even so, victim-type theatrics accompanies their planned chaos.
Never failing to l the police know they do not support them is required.
6 short videos playlist
With Biden protecting them, they have no fear of the police, starting camera-savvy physical confrontations that the Israeli supporters did not accept quietly.
The NYPD tries to corral the Fakestinians. But they finally spilled into the street, blocking 42nd street traffic; the penultimate “invasion” before they marched west towards Times Square.
Part 1 Flickr – a lot of the anti-Israel signs and crowd
The two women leading the “pali” protest, included attorney, Lamis Deek [@Lamis_Deek] and activist, Nerdeen Kiswani [@NerdeenKiswani]
Lamis Deek “Human Rights Attorney, Activist, Strategist, Crisis Mgmt“
“I assure myself of only this, I never betrayed or acted or spoke to weaken the “palestinian” resistance to Zionist violence …”
“… palestinians” are so used to being defamed, demonized and abused everywhere, schools, courts, media and not just the news, work we have to remind ourselves to recognize it as abuse.“
Nerdeen Mohsen Kiswani (seen as they set up the protest) has called for violence against Israelis, celebrating terrorism, “It makes me sick to my stomach to see “palestinian” businesses in the U.S. promoted as a way to support “palestine”. How is making a business owner in the U.S. richer going to help the people of Gaza who are being slaughtered? The death of our people is not a business promotion.”
“Ethnic Cleansing. Genocide. Killing babies. U.S. moral obligation to support ‘palestine’. Paople of world always been on our side. We will defeat them one way or another.”
[BreakThrough News @BTnewsroom] “Thousands of people marched on the Israeli Consulate in New York City to express their support for the “palestinians” who are facing an all-out war declared against them by Israel. We spoke to one of the organizers of the march”@NerdeenKiswani from @WOLPalestine.
NYC, you will see, “palestine” will be free! NYC, you will learn, refugees will return!Intifada in Lydd, Jerusalem, Haifa, and ALL OF “PALESTINE”.

The TRUTH IGNORED as usual by the media. “Why doesn’t Israel offer the “palestinians” a state?”

A large billboard has been set up outside The New York Times’ headquarters that accuses the paper of “burying” news of attacks on Jewish people decades after it admitted to downplaying the Holocaust. The billboard addressed directly chairman and publisher, A.G. Sulzberger.
“Unfortunately, this isn’t the first time the Sulzberger dynasty has ducked reporting on antisemitism,” Levin said. “A.G. Sulzberger’s great grandfather, Arthur Hays Sulzberger, buried Holocaust coverage deep in the paper, obscuring its magnitude and evil.” [Fox News]
WZO (World Zionist Organization) asked people to organize rallies across the world. Jerusalem will be holding a Global Rally Against Antisemitism.
On Sunday, March 10, 2019, with Anti-Semitism on the rise, we will be rallying all around the world . We are calling upon the Jewish Communities around the world to virtually join us and hold a rally in your city center ON THE SAME DATE. Here in New York, we will be rallying in TIMES SQUARE at NOON.
The rally, which had a turn out of roughly 50 New Yorkers, took place simultaneously with a similar event in Jerusalem under the initiative of the World Zionist.

“GOP leader accuses Dems of ‘enabling anti-Semitism’ by defending Ilhan Omar” [NY Post]
“A top GOP House leader accused Democrats of trying to “protect” Rep. Ilhan Omar and “enabling anti-Semitism” by failing to single out her anti-Israel comments on the House floor.
“I think it was really clearly an effort to actually protect Ilhan Omar,” Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) told NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday. “To cover up her bigotry and anti-Semitism by refusing to name her. The Democrats have yet to take any action to remove her from her committee. And they’ve got a real problem.” [NY Post]
Anti-Semitic attacks have dramatically increased New York City. A synagogue’s window was shattered during Shabbat in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn. Jews are being physically attacked all across Brooklyn. Swastikas defacing property have been found in Brooklyn, Queens and Manhattan.
Across the the US, synagogues and Jewish community centers have seen their property defaced and/or received threats of violence.
In the Capitol of the United States of America, there are elected officials with strong ties to anti-Semitic groups. These same elected officials do not hide their support for the BDS movement.
The most horrific anti-Semitic attack to occur on United States soil was in October 2018 at The Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh, PA. Eleven Jews were murdered and seven injured.
Across Europe Jews are being beaten and murdered; kosher stores are defaced and Jewish tombstones smashed.THIS MUST STOP!
January 19, 2019. NYC. Two opposing “Women’s March” rallies were scheduled. This was the UNITY rally lead by extreme leftists; progs, socialists, racists and anti-Semites. They gathered in Foley Square to denounce all things “Trump”; while proclaiming to the world that only they represent “true diversity and unity“.
The JDL-NY counter-protestors loudly denounced the racism and hatred that was spewed from the stage, boldly challenging the do-gooder fraud of diversity and unity.
“About a half-dozen counter-protesters stood across the street and screamed “Jew haters!” and held signs saying “The Farrakhan March.” [NY Post]
Agunda Okeyo , the director of Women’s March NYC, a Pan-African New Yorker was the first speaker. #WomensWaveNYC “We applaud her for leading the charge!”
We applaud Laura Loomer who appeared on-stage as Okeyo began reading a list of names. Loomer looked at first like any photographer taking a crowd-shot. [so I looked down – doh!] I failed to catch Laura as she began to shout at the crowd.
“Keynote speaker and filmmaker Agunda Okeyo was interrupted when right-wing activist Laura Loomer, who is Jewish, crashed the stage and tried to commandeer the mic, shouting, “What about the Jews?” “The women’s march hates Jews!” she shouted repeatedly. “Linda Sarsour’s a Jew hater! Tamika Mallory’s a Jew Hater!” she hollered as she was led away by security. “I thought Jewish women were invited! I came to your party!” [NY Post]
Please note, Loomer was herded off the stage by a Muslima and Muslim-male advocate, Murad Awawdeh.He is VP of Advocacy @TheNYIC. and “prez” of a Muslim voters advocacy group, Yalla Brooklyn.

October 4, 2018 (4:30 – 6:30 pm ) NY-JDL joined protest against Columbia University’s lack of protection for Students Supporting Israel. (SSI) [click picture for Flickr slide show]
“Students Supporting Israel (SSI) have been harassed and intimated time and again. Columbia has done nothing to protect the pro-Israel students, and has shown apathy and total disregard for their safety.
All Columbia University students deserve protection! Freedom of speech for all! Members from Students Supporting Israel, Columbia’s chapter of Alums for Campus Fairness, faculty, and the local community have had enough. We demand fair and equal treatment by the administration!
Last semester SSI filed a detailed, thorough, and evidence-based complaint documenting our members’ harassment by anti-Zionist groups and individuals on campus, and of their clearly numbered violations of the CU Rules of Conduct. And yet, Columbia University has taken no action, summarily dismissed the complaint, and left its students without any protection from harassment and bullying. Since then, SSI submitted three more complaints, and the Columbia administration has failed to appropriately address any of them.
SSI has spoken with university administrators on numerous occasions, but all of their requests have fallen on deaf ears. It is time to show the university that we will not stand by quietly while SSI and other pro-Israel students are harassed and systematically silenced on its own campus.” ++
Unfortunately, they were ill-advised, practicing, rather than opposing, the type of censorship they had come out to protest.
They attempted to censor the NY-JDL. + I would suggest a new advisor+
A parent asked to speak to us re the reasons the students were protesting outside Columbia University’s gates, challenging the university’s blatant anti-Semitism. I wonder, was she aware that the SSI students were guilty of censorship … against the NY-JDL? Most unfortunate.
THEN, holding her supposedly BANNED children’s Book,” P is for Palestine“, was opportunist and HYPOCRITE: Golbarg Bashi.
Her book was banned? By whom? Where? When?
She was rude. Confrontational as she railed at the protestors in front of Columbia, particularly the NY-JDL.
Insisting the American people were afraid to know that Jesus Christ was born in PALESTINE, while hawking her P is for Palestine book to the passersby. BTW- Bashi “ is an atheist … an Iranian/Swede (born in Iran, raised in Sweden, and educated at the Universities of Manchester and Bristol and obtained her doctorate degree from Columbia University and now a feminist professor of Iranian Studies at Rutgers University ) And definitely NOT pro-Israel.
[The Geller Report] A student group at Columbia University protested on Thursday against what it described as the administration’s tolerance of harassment directed at pro-Israel students […] This time I will no longer sit quietly and allow others to dehumanize my people and my community,”
“The administration is repeatedly failing to forcefully respond to antisemitism, and so it comes back worse and worse each time. A line needs to be drawn and it needs to be drawn now.” [The Geller Report]
Demonstrators gathered outside the British Consulate in Manhattan, organized by Amcha-Coalition for Jewish Concerns, on the day before Yom Kippur eve to denounce England’s Labour Party chief Jeremy Corbyn‘s anti-Semitism and the hate he has engendered in Britain’s political and social systems.[https://coalitionforjewishvalues.org] [/https://amchainitiative.org/about/]
Flickr slideshow
“Holding placards such as “Corbyn: Evil Anti-Semite. For Shame!”, 30 demonstrators descended on the British Consulate in mid-Manhattan on Monday, September 17th, the day before Yom Kippur eve, to demand that British Labour Party head Jeremy Corbyn either “do tshuva” or resign. The action was not against the current Conservative Party government, but of concern that given today’s political instability in England, Labour could assume power.” [Amcha-Coalition for Jewish Concerns press release]
“Corbyn is leading Labour toward anti-Semitism, and British Jews are right to be worried. In 2009, he invited Islamist “friends from Hamas” to the House of Commons and said that the idea that the group “should be labelled as a terrorist organisation by the British government is really a big, big historical mistake.” In 2010, he hosted an event (also at the House of Commons) on Holocaust Memorial Day in which a Jewish Auschwitz survivor compared the Israeli government to the Nazi regime. In 2014, he attended a ceremony in Tunisia and reportedly laid a wreath on the grave of one the Black September terrorists who murdered eleven Israeli athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympics. Before the Iranian state broadcaster, Press TV, was banned in January 2012, he reportedly accepted up to £20,000 for his appearances on the channel.” [National Review]
Video 1 :Hebrew Institute of Riverdale Associate Rabbi Ezra Seligsohn declared in a talk punctuated by chants from the demonstrators: “We are here to raise the alarm about growing anti-semitism across the world that’s embodied by the man Jeremy Corbyn. At this time, just before Yom Kippur, we speak of tshuva, repentence. There are two ways, one in our brain — we read about Jeremy Corbyn, a problematic, evil person and think we don’t want him to come to a position of power. The other is what you standing here have done, act on your beliefs — and this is full tshuva, full repentence. When Corbyn equates Israel and zionism with Nazism, we say, am yisrael chai — the Jewish people live! When he links arms with terrorists, we say, am yisrael chai! When he shares platforms with Holocaust deniers, we say, am yisrael chai!” Rabbi Seigsohn concluded by blowing a shofar, a symbol of both a call to repentance and alarm.
Video 2 : Judy Kadish, co-executive director of Americans for a Safe Israel, added: “It’s so important that we come out and stand outside the British Consulate, representing a country which is now our ally. But Jeremy Corbyn is rising to power, not despite his anti-semitism, but using it as his lever to create a following. It’s scary. Former British rabbi Jonathan Sacks said that never in his lifetime did he think this would happen again, but here it is. We will not honor a man, Jeremy Corbyn, who’s honored terrorists, whose members have told Jews supporting Israel to resign from posts in the Labour Party. He should do repentance.” The crowd shouted: Corbyn resign! Corbyn resign!”.
Video 3 : New York Board of Rabbis director Rabbi Joseph Potasnik told the crowd and hundreds of passersby: “We can actually commend Jeremy Corbyn for something no one else has done — bringing both left and right together. They agree: he’s an anti-semite. You can’t stand with Hamas, call them honorable, and think you’ll be honored. You can’t stand at the graves of the Munich Olympic terrorists and say you’re honorable. We all hope for repentance because we believe in miracles, but Corbyn won’t, so let him finally do the honorable thing and resign. We will not go away until he goes away.”
“The snap demonstration came the day after the normally low-profile British Jewish community turned out 2500 protesters against Corbyn in Manchester, a clear sign of their deep distress over the spread of anti-semitic hate in Labour with Corbyn at its helm.” [Amcha-Coalition for Jewish Concerns press release]
Powerful words on the floor of Parliament from British Rabbi, Jonathan Sacks , on growing anti-Semitism. He ended with, “I never thought I would see this in my lifetime … that is why I cannot stay silent.”

November 28, 2017 – Stop the LIES. Resist anti-Semitism at NEW School. Resist Sarsour, JVP and JFREJ.
The New School offered an event panel that was supposed to deal with anti-Semitism.
Unfortunately all the speakers: Linda Sarsour, Rebecca Vilkomerson(JVP), Leo Ferguson(Jews for Racial and Economic Justice) and Lina Morales (JVP) were anti-Semites.
The JDL handout summed up exactly who the speakers were inside:
JDL, AFSI and others were outside the event to set the record straight.
“We handed out flyers. We engaged in “open dialogue” and some singing with Realize Israel -a pro Israel College group from NYU.”
“We addressed an anti-Semitic event. We educated people on the street.”
