My latest in PJ Media:
The New York Post reported Thursday that “a teenager who threw an egg at a Brooklyn synagogue and chucked another one at a woman in Borough Park has been arrested on a number of hate crime charges, police said.”
This took place in a neighborhood where many Orthodox Jews live. The young activist’s name turns out to be Mohib Hoque, and he was “hit with three counts of hate crime assault, three counts of hate crime aggravated harassment, three counts of hate crime harassment and hate crime reckless endangerment.”
Mohib Hoque. A white supremacist, perhaps? An avid consumer of “far-right” news analysis?
Anti-Semitic attacks have sharply increased in the U.S., and virtually the entire political and media establishment has agreed that this is attributable to the rise of “white supremacists” and the “far-right.” One problem with this claim is that actual white supremacists are a minuscule band of losers; another is that the same political and media establishment attaches the label “far-right” to virtually everyone who dissents from the Leftist agenda. And a third difficulty with the mainstream view is that it ignores the increasing hostility toward Israel and Jews in general on the Left, and the deeply ingrained anti-Semitism of one of the Left’s protected groups, Muslims – as a recent incident in New York City indicates.
Young Mohib Hoque “allegedly chucked an egg at a 38-year-old woman who was walking on 38th Street near 14th Avenue at about 6 p.m,” and then “about 15 minutes later, Hoque allegedly threw another egg at a wall of nearby Congregation Bnei Torah Sanz.”
None of Hoque’s behavior is really surprising to those who are aware of what Islam’s core text, the Qur’an, says about Jews. Most people assume that any hostility any Muslim may have toward Jews is motivated by the alleged mistreatment of “Palestinians” by Israel. That mistreatment, however, is largely the work of “Palestinian” propaganda mills that fabricate Israeli atrocities on a large scale, and is also in some cases a result of the practice of Hamas and Islamic Jihad of basing operations in civilian areas so that they can use retaliatory actions as a basis for more victimhood propaganda.
There is much more. Read the rest here.

Brooklyn: Man Arrested for Egging Synagogue Turns Out Not to Be a White Supremacist
……………………
Gee, really? White supremacists are pretty thin on the ground in Brooklyn–would that you could say the same about Muslims.
mortimer says
Robert Spencer correctly summarizes what this is: normative Islam inspired by the main Islamic source text, the Koran. The Koran teaches Jew hatred. Mohammed never got over the fact that Torah scholars in Arabia could find no justification to declare a half-pagan sooth-sayer was a valid prophet in the Jewish tradition. Mohammed had not read the Bible, did not know any Hebrew and was not even Jewish. Three strikes, you’re out. So Mohammed took revenge and declared eternal enmity against Jews. Muslims must imitate Mohammed.
mortimer says
What? The terrorist is not a ‘white’ supremacist? Oh, he’s only an EAST INDIAN MUSLIM supremacist. OK, Leftards, friendly fire ! Stand down … go back to sleep.

Animal Muslim Ahmmed Koya who raped and murdered a 13 year old Hindu girl in the Southern Indian state of Kerala, and who was bailed out by his cleric brother, was shot dead by the father of the Hindu girl in retribution. 3 cheers.
Shankar Narayan from Mallapuram, Kerala shot and killed the man who brutally raped and murdered his teenage daughter. The rapist was awarded bail by the Kerala High Court when Shankar decided to take matters onto his own hands.

karma or poetic justice too;rapists are the lowest of the low…poor girls.
It is a wicked crime and the law is often an ass when dealing with the perpetrators.
Angemon says
For the woke crowd, hate crimes, like racism, are something only white people do…
Mr. Cohen says
“Shahak ignored, as Marx did, the disproportionate contributions
of Jews to both Jewish and non-Jewish charities, as well as the
heavy involvement of Jews in do-gooder and progressive causes.
This is the way of the anti-Semite: to blame all Jews, or Judaism,
for the evil practices of some Jews, but not to credit Jews or
Judaism for the good deeds of many Jews.”

Mr. Cohen says
The essence of anti-Semitism is the bigoted claim that
if there is a problem, Jews must be its cause;
and not just some Jews, but “the Jews” as a collectivity.
The presumption of collective action, and collective guilt,
always marks the sometimes subtle shift from legitimate criticism
of individual actions by Jews to anti-Semitic conspiracy theory.
In the Middle Ages, “the Jews” were blamed for the bubonic plague.
The Nazis later blamed “the Jews” for Germany’s economic
collapse after World War I. Today, many hard-Left activists
explicitly blame “the Jews” and “the Zionists” for many evils
of the world, including climate change.

Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah said:
“If [the Jews] all gather in Israel, it will save us
the trouble of going after them worldwide.”
“If we search the entire world for a person more cowardly,
despicable, weak and feeble in psyche, mind, ideology
and religion, we would not find anyone like the Jew.
Notice I did not say Israeli.”

BOTTOM LINE: Islam advocates genocidal anti-Semitism.
Mr. Cohen says
Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:
“Indeed, the only nation subjected to the so-called BDS
movement is the nation-state of the Jewish people.
When only Muslim states were subject to the Trump
administration’s travel ban, the Left was outraged.
Why is there no similar outrage at subjecting only
the nation-state of the Jewish people to BDS?
Many of those who most loudly support boycotting Israel
demand that we end boycotts of: Cuba, Iran, North Korea, and
other tyrannical regimes. How can they justify this double standard?”

BOTTOM LINE: Jews are the only people who are not
allowed to have their own country, no matter how small.
Mr. Cohen says
Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:
“Nor did Israel receive the praise it rightfully deserved.
Despite taking these risks for peace [like completely
withdrawing from all of Gaza in year 2005], efforts
to isolate and demonize Israel – through BDS,
UN resolutions and demonstrations – only increased.
There was no correlation between Israel’s positive
actions on the one hand and the condemnation it
received on the other, especially from the hard Left.”

BOTTOM LINE: Jews are the only people who are not
allowed to have their own country, no matter how small.
Mr. Cohen says
Peter Tatchell [a supporter of the anti-Israel BDS movement],
said this in year 2015:
“While I oppose Israel’s occupation, I find it strange that
some people condemn Israel while remaining silent about
these other equally or more oppressive occupations.
Many of Israel’s critics are also silent about neighboring Arab dictatorships.
And where are the protests and calls for boycotts against the tyrannies of:
Saudi Arabia, Iran, Burma, Zimbabwe, North Korea, Uzbekistan, Bahrain,
Syria and elsewhere? Why the double standard?”

Mr. Cohen says
Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:
Barghouti neglects to mention the role of the Palestinian
leadership during the 1930s and 1940s, who had formed
an alliance with the Nazi regime in general and Adolph Hitler
in particular. The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin Al-Husseini,
collaborated with the Nazis to prevent Jewish refugees
from seeking sanctuary in what became Israel.
He was instrumental in having Jews, who were on their way
out of Europe, sent to death camps. After the war, he was
declared a war criminal for recruiting thousands of Muslim
Yugislavs to murder Jews in Croatia and Hungary.
Despite his Nazi collaboration – or perhaps because of it –
he became and remained a hero to most Palestinians,
many of whom hung his picture in their homes.
He helped design an Arab fez adorned with a Swastika
that his Palestinian followers wore (I saw that fez in a
private collection of Nazi-Arab memorabilia).
Following the Holocaust, Al-Husseini received asylum
in Egypt, where he organized other German Nazis
to help in efforts to destroy Israel.”

PERSONAL NOTE:
Egypt is categorized as a moderate Arab country.
Mr. Cohen says
Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:
“…as Israel offered compromises in the interests of peace,
the efforts by the hard-Left to demonize, delegitimize
and isolate Israel only increased.
This perverse dynamic, demonstrating that the hard-Left
opposition was not to Israel’s policies, but rather to
its very existence, has continued to this day.”

Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:
“The hard-Left, as usual, gave [Yasser] Arafat a pass
on his personal involvement in the murder of innocent
civilians, as well as on his refusal to condemn terrorism.
As is all too typical of the hard-Left, they tolerate all
manner of human rights violations by anti-Israel and
anti-American tyrants, while railing against even the most
minor deviations from perfection by the Western democracies.”

Another Muzzie act of hate. Shocking.
jakee308 says
Well that and they’re told right in their Prophet’s Holy Book to hate and kill the jew at every opportunity. And yet somehow not wanting to get killed is islamophobia. Well it’s not a phobia if it’s true. They do want to kill us. And they do as often as they can get away with it.
