(JTA) — Protesters at a demonstration in Washington, D.C., linking Black Lives Matter and the Palestinian cause chanted “Israel, we know you, you murder children, too.”
The demonstration Wednesday was billed as an event in support of the Day of Rage called by the Palestinian Authority and other groups to protest Israel’s announced plan to annex up to 30% of the West Bank on or after July 1.
A staff writer for The Washington Examiner, Nicolas Rowan, posted a video of some of the march on Twitter.
“It was only a matter of time before the DC protests turned anti-Semitic,” he tweeted.
Chants also alternated between “Black lives matter!” and “Palestinian lives matter!”
The march, from the Lincoln Memorial to the Capitol building, was led by a Harvard student, Christian Tabash, who read a poem about Israel’s crimes against Palestinian Muslims, according to the Examiner. The poem referred to Israel as “puppet master of continents,” an age-old conspiracy theory that Jews run the world.
Tabash, a rising senior, also noted several times that the Palestinian movement is “intrinsically tied to Black Lives Matter” and called to defund police departments.
The Republican Jewish Coalition in response said in a statement: “We are horrified by this vicious hatemongering by Black Lives Matter protesters. The Black Lives Matter charter is filled with anti-Israel and antisemitic lies. It is deeply disturbing, but not surprising, to hear those sentiments chanted in the streets of Washington, DC.”
The statement called on former Vice President Joe Biden, “as the standard bearer of the Democrat Party, to condemn these anti-Semitic chants by BLM protesters.”

Posted before but GET THE POINT!

First off, I am from Jewish descent. According to “Jewish Law”, whatever the hell that is, I am a “Jew”.
My direct ancestors played an important part in the recent history of Holland, as resistance fighters against the Nazis. (Note that I do NOT say The Germans!).
So, if you are thinking about labeling me an anti-Semite, just go for it, hemroids bother me more!
Picture this, leave personal opinions about events in WWII in the back of your mind, because they are not relevant! Really! At this point in history, it is no longer relevant to present events if the holocaust happened as claimed or not.
Like the nail in the door jamb on which you rip your jacket every time you go through the door, the holocaust rips your objective thoughts.
So, picture this: After the war, when I was born, it was stated many times (in my family and among friends thereof), that “again” this had happened.
Again and again and again, were the Jews persecuted, accused of wrong doings, murdered and driven from their homesteads.
All that because “we” were the chosen ones, God’s favorites, his pet project, his perfect creation.
Present events, show us the true face of the State of Israel, and as they call themselves, The Jews.
Systematic genocide of the Palestinian people and manipulation of countries and their leaders through unsavory practices.
Regardless of the stipulations of the Balfour Declaration, the Jews have engaged in the systematic eradication of Palestinian people and anybody else who opposed them.
Now, only zionist criminals have the right to pretend that they are the victims of the whole universe.
