The Wall Street Journal Supports Hamas.
I guess stating the obvious - that Jews need to defend themselves - goes against "the Community Guidelines" drawn up by some Lefty Woke Twit on the Journal payroll.
[I was not going to publish this lest it come across as a petty grievance, so I let it sit overnight. Here it is - because this is one symptom of a much deeper disease in society which has erupted in Public Jew Hatred in startling fashion and speed.]
When did Rupert Murdoch go soft? What is this crap? This piece appeared which I have quoted without permission in its entirety.
Celebrating the Nova Massacre in New York City
Anti-Israel protesters desecrate a memorial to Hamas’s victims and attack the homes of Jewish museum donors.

If you think this spring’s antisemitic campus protests were a temporary delusion, pay attention to what’s happening in New York City. On Monday anti-Israel protesters wouldn’t even let a tribute to Israelis murdered at the Nova Music Festival on Oct. 7 be held in peace.
Hamas massacred some 260 people, mostly young, at that festival. Women were raped and their bodies mutilated before they were killed. The butchery and sadism were the point, inflicted out of hatred merely because the victims were Jews.
The protesters in New York didn’t kill anyone, at least not yet. But the hatred for Jews was on ugly display. The protest was part of a “Citywide Day of Rage” that targeted New York’s museums. The group Within Our Lifetime, which organized the protests, says cultural institutions are “drenched in the blood of Palestine’s martyrs.” They seem to mean the museums’ Jewish donors.
“Long live Intifada,” the crowd cheered, waving flares outside the exhibit commemorating the hundreds who were massacred at the Nova festival. “Israel, go to hell.” Young American adults waved Hamas and Hezbollah flags and chanted, “Resistance is justified, where people are occupied.” Signs declared “Abolish the settler state.” They mean abolish Israel. The New York Post reports that one protester was captured on video declaring that he wished “Hitler was still here.”
New York Mayor Eric Adams called the spectacle “pure antisemitism,” and he’s right. Public threats and intimidation are also rising. Antisemites boarded a New York subway car and repeatedly shouted, “Raise your hand if you’re a Zionist. This is your chance to get out.”
A White House spokesman issued a statement that the events outside the Nova exhibit were “outrageous and heartbreaking” and that “profane banners of terrorist organizations should not be flown anywhere, especially not on American streets.” But President Biden’s waffling on the moral justification of Israel’s war to destroy Hamas has emboldened the pro-Hamas left in the U.S.
On Tuesday night, protesters vandalized the homes of Brooklyn Museum Jewish board members and the co-op building of museum director Anne Pasternak. The vandals marked the doors of their homes with upside down red triangles, a symbol used by the al-Qassam brigades, the military arm of Hamas, to identify targets. These families now need protection from the New York Police Department.
America has an antisemitism problem that is growing in its extremism, and these days it is mainly on the political left. Don’t be surprised if it soon breaks out into violence.
I then made some fairly benign comments about Jews needing to protect themselves from what is surely going to be escalating violence. As you can see, the Wall Street Journal Censors deleted every single one of my comments.
Record time! I had a stopwatch going - it took 22 seconds to delete my comment!
25 seconds!
Enough of this. Why am I surprised? So now the Journal hates Jews, and does not want anyone suggesting that Jews be able to defend themselves from the mobs who are only growing more emboldened.
Splashing red paint and painting Hamas symbols on a private home in New York in 2024??
Why are the NYPD not beating the living the last breath out of these evil people? Why is any New Yorker listening to Kathy Hochul after the Supreme Court ruled New York State has no right to prevent law-abiding citizens from owning firearms?
