the "palestinian sources" you cite are all linked to terrorists and terror organizations
you are just proving my point that the pro-palestinian movement is a anti-jewish terroism which has nothing to do with the rights of the Palestinian people.
Promoting Anti-Semitism
In 2017, JVP launched the “
Deadly Exchange” campaign that accused American Jewish organizations of promoting human rights abuses.
JVP also released a video that
blamed [00:04:04] US-based Jewish organizations for violence that occurs against Black and Brown communities, immigrants and activists in the U.S.
The video
accused mainstream Jewish organizations in the United States of coordinating exchange programs between American and Israeli security personnel, to advance “worst practices” and “racist policies.”
The campaign page
claimed that these “policies” included: “extrajudicial executions, shoot-to-kill policies, police murders, racial profiling, massive spying and surveillance, deportation and detention.”
In
November 2017, JVP activists
demonstrated at ADL offices in 15 cities to protest the ADL’s role in these programs. That day, seven JVP members were
reportedly arrested in the lobby of ADL’s national office in New York as they attempted to deliver a
petition calling for an end to ADL’s sponsorship of the exchanges.
On
April 19, 2018, Durham, North Carolina
became the first U.S. city to prohibit police exchanges with Israel, followed by similar initiatives in
Northampton,
Massachusetts and the
Vermont State Police.
In
May 2020, after the death of
George Floyd, an African-American man who was
killed in Minnesota while being arrested, JVP
issued a statement titled “Justice for George Floyd” on their
website. In June 2020, JVP
issued an update on the Deadly Exchange on their website and on the Deadly Exchange website. They also
posted content on social media that compared George Floyd’s treatment by U.S. police to Israel’s treatment of Palestinians.
Supporting Terrorists
As of November
2020, JVP was
listed as a member of the Rasmea Defense Committee, a coalition of mostly anti-Israel organizations which
campaigned for terrorist Rasmea Odeh.
Odeh was a key
military operative [00:02:08] with the
Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorist organization. In 1969, she
masterminded a PFLP supermarket
bombing that killed two college students. She also attempted to bomb the British consulate in Jerusalem. Odeh later moved to the United States but was
deported to Jordan in 2017 for immigration fraud.
In
2017, JVP
honored Odeh at the 2017 JVP National Member Meeting.
In
April 2020, during the global
coronavirus pandemic, JVP
organized a Zoom rally in honor of Samidoun’s annual
Palestinian Prisoners Day.
During the rally, JVP Executive Director Stefanie Fox
referred [00:02:19] to the “inextricable connection between the freedom struggle against prisons in U.S. and the struggle for freedom in Palestine” and
solicited [01:08:31] donations for local bailouts and Palestinian prisoner advocacy organizations.
In
February 2019, JVP
celebrated the release of Khalida Jarrar from Israeli prison. JVP has
called Jarrar a “prominent Palestinian politician” and
signed a
petition calling for Jarrar’s release from prison in
September 2018 which referred to her as a “prominent leftist, feminist, prisoners’ rights advocate.”
Khalida Jarrar is a
senior member of the
Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terror organization. In 2015, an Israeli military court
sentenced Jarrar to 15 months in prison for
calling to kidnap Israeli soldiers. Israel
arrested Jarrar again in 2017 “on suspicion of involvement with terrorist activities and violent public disturbances.”
In 2019, Jarrar was
arrested by Israel, with other PFLP operatives, following a deadly 2018 bombing attack that
targeted an Israeli family. Jarrar was
reportedly the head of the PFLP in the West Bank since 2016 and the cell was
reportedly “planning additional attacks.” Guns and bomb-making equipment were seized during the arrests.
In
June 2017, JVP
sponsored an advertisement in
The Forward in support of Palestinian terrorist
Marwan Barghouti, then on a hunger strike in Israeli prison.
Marwan Barghouti
initiated the 2017 hunger strike by Palestinian prisoners known as the “Dignity Strike.” He headed the
Palestinian Authority (PA) terrorist
Tanzim force and founded the
Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades. His organizations carried out many
deadly attacks against Israeli civilians.
Barghouti
financed the bomb used in the
Sbarro Cafe bombing and was sentenced to five consecutive life terms in an Israeli civilian court for some of his crimes. Many of the over 1,500
prisoners who participated in the strike had also
carried out terror attacks, including
Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) Secretary General
Ahmad Sa’adat.
In
May 2017 then JVP Executive Director Vilkomerson
interviewed Barghouti’s son, Aarab Marwan Barghouti, and
said [00:18:34]: “Please know that all of us at Jewish Voice for Peace are in full solidarity with the strike and the efforts of your father and the other leaders…”
In
April 2017, JVP
declared their support for Palestinian hunger strikers in Israeli prisons.
