Those Who Are Ignorant Of History Are Doomed To Repeat It…Or…Our Education System Is Irrevocably Broken. Either Or Both Work!

So a presumably Jewish high school teacher went to a rally in support of Israel, and that is beyond the pale for the current crop of multicultural leftist fascists in our nation’s schools.
The incident at Hillcrest High School in Queens occurred on Monday after pro-Palestinian students learned the teacher had a photo on social media where she held a sign, saying “I stand with Israel.”
The student body rioted…and had they been any brighter or had planned this impromptu lynching any better, the teacher might not have survived the ordeal. Because this is a NYC public school, where normal human social norms are not observed. It is nothing more than a conglomeration of feral youth that is barely controlled by mostly terrified teachers and administrators.
But that’s not new. That has been the status quo for most schools in NYC for generations. The difference is that the Jewish teacher was targeted for being Jewish and having the temerity to demonstrate in support of Israel. You know…evil Israel that has 2,000,000 Arab citizens and is a flourishing liberal democracy with full rights granted to blacks and gays and trannies and Hispanics and you name it. Hell, Israel has a gay pride parade!
‘Radicalized’ students storm pro-Israel teacher’s classroom in New York
What is really interesting (but not surprising) is the whining comments from the teacher and the local councilman! “I’m shocked, shocked, to find that gambling is going on in here.”
here’s the teacher…
- I have worked hard to be supportive of our entire student body and an advocate for our community
- It’s my hope in the days ahead we can find a way to have meaningful discussions about challenging topics with respect for each other’s diverse perspectives and shared humanity.
- Unless we can learn to see each other as people we will never be able to create a safe learning community
She just doesn’t get it. All of her multi-culti bona fides and support of every liberal cause and wearing the correct political buttons won’t protect her from the mob looking for Jewish blood. That is the real Left, and this naif doesn’t understand. Add in the institutional blood-lust of Islam and you get mobs of teenagers racing down corridors looking for Jews. But rest assured, she will be voting reliably leftist in November 2024!
And here is the Democratic Councilman Robert Holden…
- I don’t know why these students are so misinformed, so intolerant and so radicalized. They don’t even know the history of the Middle East. They haven’t been taught that
- It’s evident they’re clueless about Middle East history. When did our education system fail so miserably?
What an amazing twit. Has it occurred to him that it is the responsibility of city government to ensure some basic quality of education? Or are hours-long seminars on pronouns, microaggressions, and anal sex more important?
What’s that you ask? The demographics of Hillcrest High School?
[Hillcrest High is on the left, and New York State as a whole is on the right.]
So where did the vicious anti-Semitism come from? Black anti-Semitism is baked into the cake. Asian is a bit surprising, and Hispanic is undoubtedly a byproduct of the overwhelming leftist cant in most of the Hispanic world. But the media-driven pro-Hamas “news,” coupled with the abject ignorance of the most basic history of the Middle East is a good start for the professional agitators who just love to manipulate the mush-brained on our college campuses and now in our high schools.
Just go back to the free speech movement of the 1960s and you will find clear connections to communist organizations. And the violence that accelerated in the late 1960s? Anyone care to guess Bill Ayers’ political affiliation? Or Angela Davis?
What we have is a relationship of convenience between the militant Muslims who foment strife and rebellion in the Dar al-harb (lands not yet under Muslim control) and the communist/socialist/progressive left that seeks to overthrow the West for its own reasons. The Left’s natural antipathy toward Jews, Judaism, and Israel meshes perfectly with Militant Islam.
The real question is what happens next if Islam succeeds? Those ardent leftists will find themselves being thrown off of buildings and shot down in the streets. And if the communist left succeeds? Will they tolerate the overt religiosity of Islam? Ask the Russian Orthodox priests in the Soviet Union, or Christians, Buddhists, and Falon Gong in China.
