Thuggery encouraged and emboldened by the near-universal demonization of Israel, largely based on fabricated “Palestinian” jihad propaganda.
“Pro Soccer Player Details Horrifying Anti-Semitic Threat: They Asked Me If I Was Jewish, ‘Then I Saw Them Withdrawing Knives,’” by Brandon Contes, Mediaite, May 21, 2021:
Professional soccer player Luca Lewis said he was the victim of a terrifying anti-Semitic threat in New York on Thursday night.
The New York Red Bulls goalkeeper described the scene on his personal Instagram page, writing that the incident occurred while he was walking with a friend.
“A group of 6-8 Palestinian men walk up to me and asked me where I was from,” Lewis wrote. “I responded and said ‘New York.’ Than [sic] one guy asks me if I was Jewish. I pause for a moment in confusion and thought about it, then I saw them withdrawing knives.”
Lewis then answered, “no.”
“The guy looked at me with such disgust in his eyes and said ‘Good.’ As I started walking away, I got extremely angry and felt like I had to say something,” Lewis continued. “So I turned back around and said ‘what if I was Jewish?’”
Lewis then writes the group of men walked up to him and the person who asked the original question threatened the soccer player, “I’ll beat the f*ckin sh*t out of you and kill you.’”
According to Lewis, a few women who were with the men yelled at them to let it go. Lewis and his friend escaped without physical injury….
“Everyone who is ‘visibly’ Jewish now has to be scared to walk around New York in peace and that’s a huge problem,” Lewis wrote….
The 20-year-old American soccer player said this was the first time he ever experienced what discrimination feels like. “Help promote peace between the beautiful countries of Palestine and Israel,” Lewis added.

This seems like a good reason for limiting immigration from dangerous countries where migrants are often found to behave contrary to laws of the host country. However, it seems unlikely that the present government would ever consider this common sense perspective. Perhaps because they do not really like Jews.

Biden vowed that he was going to overturn Trump’s “Muslim ban” on day one–and then he did just that. He seems to *want* these Jihadist thugs in the US.

Boycott FIFS-2022. Do not send your players or fans to Qatar. Hamas is a terrorist group and Qatar supports it through Al Jazeera.
rubiconcrest says
I’ll second that. Not only was the tournament falsely awarded to Qatar but it was awarded to a terrorist supporting state. The athletes who will be participating, however, cannot be expected to pass up the greatest opportunity of a lifetime on the world stage. It is FIFA that is sick not the athletes.

Agreed, BlackSabbath. The Qatar stadium was built in part with slave labor. Just appalling.
Chrissie01 says
isn’t threatening an individual for belonging to a nation/ people … a tiny bit racist?
Infidel says
Only if the people in question are BIPOC or mohammedans ?
Infidel says
Since we’re not gonna ban muslims, ban soccer ⚽ in the US
BlackSabbath says
We will have to ban islam. Soccer was not created by islam. The only sports islam has created is beheading, raping, and looting. They can have their islamic olympics in qatar where their sports would be along those lines — acid throwing, honor killing, and all that stuff.

Yes with search and frisk done away in NYC with and the police neuter from doing any pro-active policing Jihadist thugs are free to walk around in gangs armed with knives threating anyone who “looks” Jewish. Even during daylight hours in areas that were very safe two years ago. This seems to be the new” normal” in Democratic cities like NYC and LA ,Islam has imported street gang terrorism from the Middle East to Mid Town Manhattan .The silence from Jewish elected Democratic leaders or worst the appeasement by them at the federal level is unbelievable .Where is Chuck Schumer , he is usually ready to shove his face in front of a camera to denounce Trump even when Trump is not even in office any more ,but not a word on violent attacks on Jews in the state he represents? If it was “white supremist ” it would be front page news, CNN 24/7 for months on end, because it is the special “protected” group Moslems Jihadist he is not allowed as a member of the Democratic party to open his mouth neither is anyone in the MSM a branch of the Democratic party.
wpm says
This happen in a city with the largest Jewish population in the world! Where is the idiot mayor on this issue too busy being “progressive” handcuffing the police from doing their jobs of enforcing and protecting the citizens of the city he represents.
Rbla says
To the Jews in New York. You had better wake up and vote the Dems out of the City Council and Mayor’s office this November. As the large Android in a moment of realization told Captain Kirk: “Survival cancels programming. That is the equation!”
And don’t be fooled by Farrakhan’s friend Adams who is suddenly pretending to be pro police.
wpm says
Adams is a friend the progressive mayors wife Shirlene McCray who has an eye on running for Brooklyn Boro president the position Adams in now in.
wpm says
The mayor will back Adams before the June democratic primary in my opinion. The people in this stupid city I live in would vote for an oak tree if it was a member of the democratic party over a republican.

“…. “Help promote peace between the beautiful countries of Palestine and Israel,” Lewis added….”

Mr Lewis appears to be slightly confused – how does one promote peace between a country that doesn’t exist and a real one ?
Especially if the non-existent “country” is nothing more than an international project to destroy Israel, and with which no peace is therefore possible ?
wpm says
Yes and the supports of wiping out all Jews in Israel would like to wipe out all Jews in the world by evidence of stabbing him on a public street in NYC for the crime of being a Jew? There is no peace with people who want you dead no matter how much you try to appease them.
Keith O says
Islam. Bringing fear, loathing, hatred and terrorism to a peaceful country near you.
Enquire with your local leftist or media outlet to find out the details of your upcoming enslavement.
