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.

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?”
They have, repeatedly, been told.

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.

Even though ONE renegade Leftie held a sign professing support for Israel, her sign went against the published position held by this Farrakhan-sponsored Women’s Movement.

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.”
March 1st, 2017 – RAIN- and Apartheid Week 2017 at Columbia University and its vile Apartheid WALL was getting rained-out. (little pleasures) March 3 was the last day of this annual week of hate and lies and with no rain predicted the next day, I headed for Columbia.
But, now it was WIND. (What’s next frogs and locusts?) Whatever, once I arrived, I rather enjoyed the low-impact caused by this inclement weather. The Wall of Hate had to lay flat on the ground. The visual impact was down to zero.
short video:
Oddly, after about 20 minutes, I was quizzed by a Columbia Media Relations Rep. Where was my press permit (really?) He begrudgingly let me stay an extra 15 minutes since I explained I was “hanging, hoping the wind would abate and the wall placed upright – for a better picture. I waited 15 minutes. 1 pm arrived; gusty winds still blowing so: No “Wall”.
Really there was nothing new to see. Never is. I’ve been following the NYC Apartheid Week since 2007. Been to one Apartheid Week offensive you’ve been to them all: the anti-U.S., anti-Israel, anti-Jewish message is deeply embedded and never grows dim. The annual event has grown from 2005 to 2017. Ever stronger, they hold court, spew their litany of lies eagerly accepted as FACT. NO opposition allowed.
If ONLY we could get equal time to counter their outrageous lies. If only our truth could be heard …. by open minds. If Only.
November 4, 2015 – The latest on the ARAB LEAGUE BOYCOTT ATTEMPTS TO STRANGLE ISRAEL. The BDS Movement. Worldwide explosion of anti-Semitism against Jews. Focus at this NY City Hall presser was on Kuwaiti Airlines and their discrimination against Israeli Citizens flying to London.
VIDEO of FULL PRESSER – 25 minutes
The nine speakers in order: Lancman,Hoelein,Goldstein,Levine,Moerdler,Greenfield,Levitky,Maisel and Dr. Stone.
Elected Officials, Advocates Call on Department of Transportation and Port Authority to Enforce DOT Decision Prohibiting Kuwait Airways’ Discrimination Against Israeli Citizens.
WHAT:
The Lawfare Project, New York City Council Members Lancman, Greenfield, and Maisel, and others call on the Port Authority and the Department of Transportation (DOT) to enforce federal anti-discrimination laws and the anti-discrimination provisions of Kuwait Airways’ lease at JFK Airport to prevent the airline from continuing to refuse to sell tickets to Israeli citizens.
DOT has already determined that this policy violates federal law, and its practice violates the airline’s lease with the Port Authority. The Council Members and advocates publicly released a letter to DOT and the Port Authority requesting enforcement action or termination of Kuwait Airways’ lease and ability to fly out of JFK Airport.
WHO:
Council Members Rory I. Lancman, David Greenfield, Alan Maisel, Mark Levine
Malcolm Hoenlein – Executive Vice Chairman, Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations
Professor Richard B. Stone – Former Chairman, Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations
Jeffrey A. Moerdler – Former Commissioner, Port Authority of New York and New Jersey
Jeffrey Lovitky – Attorney at Law, counsel for complainant in action against DOT
Brooke Goldstein – Director, The Lawfare Project
WHERE:
City Hall Steps (City Hall Park, New York, NY 10007)
WHEN:
Wednesday, November 4, 2015 @ 12:00PM ET
STATEMENTS:
“I commend the Department of Transportation on reaching its just conclusion, and urge both the DOT and Port Authority to take all steps necessary to ensure that Kuwait Airways’ flagrant discrimination is not permitted in the United States.”
– Malcolm Hoenlein, Executive Vice Chairman, Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations
“The Department of Transportation’s decision is a crucial step toward the elimination of unlawful discrimination in air travel and the protection of human rights. Now, it is imperative that DOT and the Port Authority staunchly enforce this decision such that Kuwait Airways ceases its deplorable conduct. All travelers within the United States should expect to be treated equally in our nation’s airports, regardless of their ethnicity or national origin.” – Brooke Goldstein, Director, The Lawfare Project
“The Arab League boycott, of which Kuwait Airways’ reprehensible practices are part and parcel, is discriminatory at its core. Like the modern-day BDS (Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions) movement, the Arab League boycott and its offshoots are expressions of bigotry. This is precisely why the U.S. Congress and state governments have enacted anti-boycott legislation to protect individuals and entities who are singled out for unequal, punitive treatment based not on what they do, but on who they are.” – Professor Richard B. Stone, Former Chairman, Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations
“Kuwait Airway’s action establishes an intolerable precedent for the airline industry. If an airline stated that it would not accept passengers with Mexican passports, people would justifiably claim discrimination against Hispanics. If an airline stated that it would not accept passengers with Saudi passports, people would justifiably claim discrimination against Muslim passengers. The same is true here, except that the discrimination is directed against citizens of the Jewish state. The Arab League boycott of Israel is a manifestation of religious intolerance, motivated by the Jewish nature of the State of Israel.
The illegal discrimination practiced by Kuwait Airways is inconsistent with our laws and our fundamental values as a nation. By its terms, the permit granted by the Department of Transportation to Kuwait Airways has lapsed because that airline is not in compliance with U.S. law. Therefore, the Department of Transportation must swiftly terminate all Kuwait Airways service between New York and London. Such termination is mandated by statute, and is fully consistent with Article 4 of the U.S.-Kuwait Air Transportation (“Open Skies”) Agreement.”
– Jeffrey Lovitky, Attorney at Law
“The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey has a long tradition of doing the right thing. Now that the U.S. Department of Transportation has determined that Kuwait Airlines’ policy of not selling tickets on flights to London to Israeli passport holders violates United States law, we call on the Port Authority to do the right thing here too and enforce the anti-discrimination provisions of its lease with Kuwait Airlines.”– Jeffrey A. Moerdler, Former Commissioner, Port Authority of New York and New Jersey
From AFSI: In the Middle East, the Muslims are moving the clock back to the seventh century, as they attempt to regain the glory of the early years of Islam. Today, Islam is on the march. ISIS, the Taliban, Hamas, Hezbollah are all the same thing, and make no mistake – all are bent on jihad and the destruction of western civilization.
The “Little Satan” – Israel – is the only bulwark keeping Islam from conquering Europe, by preventing a total Islamist takeover of the Middle East. Israel is buying Europe a little time. Alas, to its grave misfortune Europe is squandering the opportunity Israel is presenting it. Europe is importing hundreds of thousands of Muslims; people who will never integrate into European society, but who are creating parallel governments, education and social systems, with one aim: conquest. Forget bombs or a decades-long battle of the womb. Muslims are very quickly reaching critical mass in major cities throughout Europe, and only need to be a small percent of a society’s population before they are empowered to use their power. It is happening in front of our eyes.
Here in the United States, the Obama administration has made several pronouncements indicating a decision to take in and resettle at least 100,000 “refugees” from the Middle East.
If it goes ahead and is successful with this plan, woe is us.
History DOES repeat itself as documented in these videos on the horrors of anti-semitism – Film maker Pierre Rehovhas dedicated himself to exposing the murderous lies and anti-Semitism by recently making available these two important videos.
Closing thoughts, as the Global Warfare metastasizes and the THIRD Intifada continues. The Religion of “Peace” has struck AGAIN:
“the attack on france is what israel goes through daily for close to 70 years. when arafat turned down the bill clinton-brokered peace treaty (june, 2000) in which the palestinians got 98% of what they demanded (still, without recognizing israel!), arafat started the second intifada, in which 1000 israelis were blown up on a daily basis, in pizzeria’s, on buses, etc. Considering the population differences (israel has 7 million people, america, 325 million), that would be the equivalent of an uprising in this country where 50,000 people were killed. did you read that? every time 5 israelis are stabbed or murdered —which is an everyday occurrence — that’s the equivalent of it happening to 50 people in france.daily. and all obama and hillary and kerry and the EU and Ban at the UN can do is blame israel for building apartments in its own territory as the main cause for the worldwide terror. sure.” [seth swirsky]
“… isn’t it about time to rethink this whole diversity-for-the-sake-of-diversity nonsense?? How do we co-exist with crazed… lunatics?”
Conference on “Global Anti-Semitism: A Threat to International Peace and Security”
According to the World Zionist Organization, since the recent Israel-Hamas conflict there has been more than a 400-percent rise in anti-Semitic incidents in Europe. In South America and South Africa, anti-Semitic incidents have spiked 1,200 and 600 percent, respectively. In the U.S., such incidents are up 127 percent.
The conference was co-organized by the UN Permanent Mission of Palau and the Engr Aja Eze Foundation.
Attendance to this historic event was free. The place was packed.
The hall was packed!
On the third floor of the United Nations, just two doors down from the Security Council, more than 500 people gathered on September 8, 2014, for a conference on the rise of anti-Semitism. For some, the location was a touch ironic … it wasn’t the UN that decided to address the threat global anti-Semitism posed to international peace and security… it was the UN Permanent Mission of Palau and the Aja Eze Foundation that sponsored the lunchtime conference.
Energy. Intense. Positive.
Serious. Purposeful. Supportive.
The speakers explained how the rising tide of anti-Semitism, if not stopped, will have a catastrophic effect on the safety and security of the world. A thought-provoking afternoon. Rather than just post a podcast, I decided to post the entire audio with stills that I took during the Conference. I encourage you to listen to each speaker . In Two-Parts (total is 1 hour 45 minutes):Ms. Ugoji Eze Esq, President of the Eng Aja Eze Foundation, a non-profit organization focusing on the rebuilding of societies following conflicts, was the moderator

++ PART TWO – VIDEO
PART TWO VIDEO Begins with Pastor Mario Bramnick, Chief Liaison for Israel and the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference: “The Root Causes of the Current Rise of Global Anti-Semitism”. (00:29 – 13:43 )He said, “ There has never been a meeting on anti-Semitism like this in the halls of the U.N.”
Ms Anne Bayesky, Director Touro Institute on Human Rights: ” The United Nations and Anti-Semitism”. (14:01 – 20:36 ) She made an important point for us ALL to remember, “The perversion of the legal system is how a Holocaust begins.” The final speaker before a short Q and A was Dr. Michael Llorenz, Professor Touro College Graduate School of Business, “Entrepreneurship: A Tool to Social Integration” (20:56 – 35:33) This, too, was a powerful a speech. Dr. Llorenz posted a comment at Algemeiner I felt compelled to share. So eloquent. Passionate. Determined to make a difference. In spite of the United Nations blatant anti-Semitism!
Dear Editors:
Thank you for conveying the message of my speech at the United Nations last Monday. Too often, those of us who Israel stand on the sidelines and wait for someone else to act. Most often, fiery rhetoric substitutes for effective action.
You may know what impelled me to agree to speak and to help with the historic event that we experienced on Monday.
Hashem is not the God of coincidence. These Recommendations I made are part of a larger strategy that I prepared as a response to two questions asked of me at a book signing where a frustrated colleague who knew that I had successfully aided other communities and institutions to address their complex difficulties. “Israel and Jews are in trouble. Why don’t you come up with something to help?” I was surprised as the person walked away. A little later, Dr. Donne Kampel, founder and chair of the Women’s Leadership Council introduced me to the Barrister Ugoji Eze, CEO of the Aja Eze Foundation that produced the program at the United Nations. She asked me what could be done to help Israel and to reduce anti-Semitism in the United States. It was a curiosity that two persons would ask me similar question within perhaps an hour and a half.
This time, I responded. My answer took perhaps twenty minutes inclusive of analysis, alternatives, and recommendations. She then told me she wanted me to speak at an anti-Semitism program that she was going to produce at the United Nations. I smiled, then agreed. Having been for five years the Principal Accredited Representative at the UN of one the largest NGOs in the world and having presented before the Fourth Committee, I was cogently aware of the sentiments of many of the key actors. Hence, I had difficulty imagining such a thing taking place. Yet, who would imagine that that the two of us who earned law degrees from English universities, she of African father and a British Jewish mother, and I, an American of Cuban heritage and some Jewish ancestry, would be blessed with the support of Ambassador Otto of Palau and later be joined by like-minded persons to make this historic program take place. Barrister Eze demonstrated prescient leadership.
Since my speech, I have had numerous requests to help apply practical and substantive ways to address anti-Semitism. I shall do my best to help.
This is a story of Hashem’s people doing His will.
Thank you again.
Michael Llorenz
Lastly, Short Q and A (35: 34 – 45:43) and Final Remarks by Ms. Ugoji Eze Esq. (45:45 -47:40)
END PART TWO VIDEO Final Thoughts:
I had never been to the United Nations. Held no interest for me. But, the seriousness of this conference pulled me in. Very glad I went.Post-Conference:
Had a sandwich in the cafeteria overlooking the East River (Where they CHARGE you 10 cents to use a TRAY)
Took some pictures as I wandered the halls from the third floor to the first. (lots of glitter and gold items that were donated by RICH oil emirates)
And one obnoxious set of panels that greeted the conferees as they exited the third floor elevator on the way to the Global Anti-Semitism Conference (SURELY this was NO accident)
Our exit from the building, after this spectacular conference, was made even more meaningful when these OBNOXIOUS PANELS were turned AWAY from the Exit. Go Team!
