Linda Sarsour invokes phony cemetery employee to explain why Jewish cemetery she raised $100,000 for got no money

Jul 18, 2017 2:27 pm By Robert Spencer

Several months ago, Leftist media darling Linda Sarsour, smarting from revelations of her inveterate antisemitism, with great fanfare raised $100,000 for a Jewish cemetery where the tombstones had been vandalized. But where is the money? The Algemeiner last week ran a story entitled, “Colorado Jewish Cemetery Promised $100,000 by BDS Activist Linda Sarsour in March 2017 Says Money Still Hasn’t Arrived.”

Sarsour was furious and threatened legal action against the Algemeiner. She did not prove that the money had been turned over to the cemetery, but she did produce a statement in her own defense from “Jennifer Goodland of Golden Hill Cemetery.”

There’s just one problem: Jennifer Goodland is not affiliated with Golden Hill Cemetery.

So where is the $100,000?

“Hikind Exposes Sarsour And Her Phoney ‘Jewish Cemetery Employee/Advocate,’” Yeshiva World, July 17, 2017 (thanks to the Geller Report):

NY State Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) says there’s something fishy about Linda Sarsour’s “Jewish Cemetery Advocate.” Sarsour gained headlines after boasting about raising big bucks for Jewish cemeteries, but when one of those cemeteries said they’d never seen a dime, Sarsour trotted out Jennifer Goodland. “Read this from Jennifer Goodland of Golden Hill Cemetery in Colorado…” Sarsour tweeted and posted on her Facebook as proof of her integrity.

Christopher Mathias of the Huffington Post also tweeted Goodland’s letter and glibly asked, “Hi @HikindDov, any comment on this?”

The letter from Goodland attacked the Algemeiner Journal, which had first claimed that Sarsour’s fundraiser on behalf of Jewish cemeteries was less than honest.

Just one small issue: Goodland is NOT an employee of Golden Hill Cemetery in Colorado.

On July 12, two of Hikind’s staff members spoke with Neal Price, executive director of Golden Hill. Price told both Yehudah Meth, Director of Communications, and Inna Vernikov, Esq. (Special Assistant to Hikind) that Goodland is not now and has never been an employee of the cemetery nor a spokesperson for Golden Hill. Price said he had only spoken with Goodland once when she called to “offer help.” He said he never heard of Goodland before then and that she was not officially involved with his cemetery in any official capacity, nor is she a cemetery spokesperson.

Vernikov challenged Goodland on Facebook. On July 15, at 9:21pm, she wrote to Goodland, “I spoke to Neal Price myself. He barely knew who you were and didn’t understand where you came from…Neal did have serious questions about your involvement and about receiving the money. Bottom line is I care that the money goes to the cemetery. Is that happening?”

Goodland replied, “Ask Neal. I never see any of it because this (was) my mitzvah.” She went on to admit, “I am neither with Celebrate Mercy nor with the Golden Hill checking account and thus perhaps you should go call your best bud Neal, ask him because he knows, and you two can have a little congratulatory session about acting this way toward a woman who was doing all of this as an act of CHARITY…I’m not your punching bag any more or Neal’s. You guys figure out who’s lying because now it’s all the cemetery has. Congrats.”

“Not surprisingly, Sarsour’s pseudo Jewish Cemetery advocate sounds like quite a character,” said Hikind. “And Ms. Sarsour just might possibly be a liar who got caught. As I’ve said before, Sarsour is a fraud in every other capacity. One minute, she claims to be an advocate of non-violence, the next she’s glorifying terrorists. Is anyone really surprised by this latest episode? I’m sure now that she’s been exposed, Sarsour will make certain that dead Jews somewhere benefit from the missing money. After all, she’s never had an issue with dead Jews.”

    Dear Americans, please always remember that as Infidels/ Kuffar/ Non Muslims, you are NOT the only ones targeted for Subjugation to Sharia or EXTERMINATION by Muslims (Arabs or otherwise) hence it is VITAL that you realize that one does not need more than two brain cells of logic to understand Muslims and Islam in a nutshell~

    Since every Muslim is Sharia compliant (London mayor Khan is a prime example who made Haj to Mecca and hence Sharia compliant as well as Linda Sarsour who LOVES Sharia) every Muslim cannot ever be a Law abiding LOYAL citizen in ANY non Muslim nation because these nations do not submit to Allah’s Sharia. Hence every Muslim is the mortal and eternal enemy of every non Muslim Infidel/ Kafir on planet Earth (80% of current humanity) who hide their disloyalty by PRETENDING and deceiving (Taqiyyah) non Muslims that they are loyal (such as mayor Khan and the Muslims in congress)

    Every Muslim is a potential Mass Murderer the instant he/ she decides that he/she is NOT Sharia compliant enough (just like in the recent Muslim terrorist attacks in UK and the Afghani Muslim soldiers who murder their American benefactors)

    I agree that Not ALL Muslims are Terrorists BUT 100% of all Terrorist attacks against Infidels/ Kuffar are committed ONLY by Muslims. Therefore, every Muslim is a hair trigger Time Bomb primed to go off (It is also a FACT that it is IMPOSSIBLE to point out who among Muslims is a terrorist or not)

    Only in the WARPED imagination of leftists can one find Moderate, Militant, Radical or Extremist Muslims because in reality Muslims are Muslims just as Nazis are Nazis and no one ever addressed Nazis as Moderate, Militant, Radical or Extremist. (Just ask PM Erdogan of Turkey to prove my statements)

    All other explanations are superfluous and redundant It is time for every decent and patriotic person to unshackle yourselves from the pre conceived but erroneous notion that ANYONE who is not a Muslim can make PEACE with Islam.

    All anyone in doubt has to do is READ only chapters 2 to 9 of Muhammad’s Quran and watch the repeated mass slaughter of unarmed innocent European, American, Russian, Indian, Chinese, Iraqi etc. civilians by Muslims proclaiming they are doing the butchery to PLEASE their demonic god Allah

    As usual, all that Europeans get from their criminally negligent leaders after every Islamic mass murder are platitudes, meaningless expressions of sympathy to the hapless victims by the very leaders who are unwilling to protect their citizenry because of their abject denial of all Facts and Reality regarding the TRUTH

    As far as Sarsour’s contribution to the cemetery, it shouldn’t be a matter of dispute. If Sarsour is managing a charitable enterprise, she has to keep track of the expenses and outlays, including written invoices and receipts. Otherwise, she risks tax charges.

    So, you don’t need a cemetery spokesman, or a phony representative. All Sarsour needs to do is publish a copy of the cancelled check to the cemetery, and their receipt. Any discussion of money and donations not involving an actual receipt is fraudulent and false on its face. And unless Sarsour reported the contributions as personal income, she is subject to criminal charges by the IRS.

      Sarsour translates to “Bug” or “Cockroach” in Arabic (depending on source).Sight and/or sound of it give me the Willys. Other Cockroaches that effect me similarly are:

      Trudeau – Canada
      Macron – France
      Merkel – Germany
      Khan – London
      Barry Soetoro (aka BH Obama) – USA

    And so the web of TAQIYYA of Linda Sarsour UNRAVELS!

    She is without a shred of credibility and now completely finished. Good riddance.

    Verbal jihad is required and practiced by all Muslims, because if they don’t deceive dirty KAFIRS about jihad, the KAFIRS will know the Muslim plans and FIGHT BACK.

    Now Linda Sarsour has covered herself in shame. She has been exposed as MENDACIOUS TAQIYYA ARTIST.

    Can there be any more hot, steaming TAQIYYA left in this exposed liar, I wonder? Will anyone give her the time of day?

    But why would they? She’s done like dinner.

      This is far more serious than it appears. Sarsour was an organizer of the Women’s March that featured the concerns of feminists, gays, and some potty-mouth celebrities. If a dime of that money is traced to a terrorist group, not only is she finished as a spokes person for feminists and Islam, she will have done real harm to their movements. Madonna had better check it out?

      I have had occasion to interact briefly with Ms. Chesler owing to issues of law concerning mothers in the US.
      Ms. Chesler is a remarkable woman who wrote early on about the prejudice against fit mothers (and fathers) in the US.

  10. Terry says

    In another (Israeli or American Jewish blog)–had a SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT version.

    In brief- there was vandalism at an old (I THINK closed–IE. no more places to bury recent deceased people) in St Louis (or near St Louis) and also some vandalism at a cemetery in the (again, by memory-I think) Greater Philadelphia area. The estimated damage (not sure if for the St Louis one or both) was somewhere in the area of $5,000 to $10,000). Sarsour started something-to “:show Muslims aren’t all bad” or something like that, to try and raise the $5-10,000.

    The result- raised well over $100,000. One of the original two (I think Phil.) said that they did not need nor want the money. Then (not sure how) the news went out, and OTHER Jewish cemeteries were able to apply for funds.

    The cemetery mentioned here, in Colorado, asked for funds- if for vandalism related damages, I do not know.

    THEN, SALSOUR said that she was giving/gave the Colorado cemetery the $100,000. And they said that they never got a dime, let alone $100,000.

    Which raises a question– if she raised well over the $110,000 (I think the article said that she raised about $200,000- again, I read this two weeks ago or so–before Mr. Hikand, and the others–or, at least, they were not mentioned)– where is the money??????

    Something smells–really bad.

    But this is what I know. Because I knew many people who were liberated in the camps during World War 2, the tattoos on their forearms. As I had friends who fought with the free French. the left has no idea about genocide.

    Linda Sarsour invokes phony cemetery employee to explain why Jewish cemetery she raised $100,000 for got no money
    ………………..

    She’s using the money donated for the “filthy Jews” to spread Islam, instead. It would be “Islamophibic” to look too closely at this…

    • Norger says

      Jul 19, 2017 at 10:32 am

      That was my cynical reaction as well. Raise money, ostensibly for dead Jews,and use it to advance jihad. And I’m willing to bet that whatever law enforcement or government agency should be policing this (the IRS?) won’t touch this with a 10 foot pole for fear of being labeled “Islamophobic.”

    “Goodland replied, “Ask Neal. I never see any of it because this (was) my mitzvah.” She went on to admit, “I am neither with Celebrate Mercy nor with the Golden Hill checking account and thus perhaps you should go call your best bud Neal, ask him because he knows, and you two can have a little congratulatory session about acting this way toward a woman who was doing all of this as an act of CHARITY…I’m not your punching bag any more or Neal’s. You guys figure out who’s lying because now it’s all the cemetery has. Congrats.” ”

    Is this the language of someone engaged in raising money for charity ? Like most liars, her account is full of inconsistencies; if she didn’t see any of the money and wasn’t involved with the recipient’s account, then she is no position to state that they received it: You cannot simultaneously claim not to be involved AND to know that Golden Hill received it.
    Conversely, if she IS in a position to know whether or not the money was sent, then she would provide documentary evidence.
    Her anger at being questioned indicates somebody who is violently opposed to the Jewish Mr Neal, not someone engaged in raising funds on his behalf.
    Still, her friend Ms Sarsour will doubtless be publishing a full account of monies received and passed on……after all, if she has been soliciting money in the name of Golden Hill, then GH not only have the right to receive it, but the responsibilty to take action to verify the amounts received and what has become of them.
    Soliciting funds in the name of a third party without their permission, and then retaining or directing those funds elsewhere, has to be an offence in any country ?

    Jul 19, 2017 at 1:49 pm

    Every person who donated even one penny for that cemetery should storm her place demanding she refund their money. She’s a cockroach (that’s what Sarsour means in arabic) and should be stomped on.
