? Absolutely no one said or implied that. Inflammatory. Jerry Seinfeld is know to have “stood with Israel” since the start of its invasion into Gaza. The students who walked out did so not because he is Jewish but because of that vocal and public stance. Israel does not equal Jewish. Saying that Israel is a bad actor in this scenario is not antisemitism.

And that does not address my comment.
It IS implied that Jews need to pass a purity test to be acceptable.
What if Mila Kunis was a keynote speaker? I don’t believe she’s taken a public stance either way. Are pro-Palestinian students going to assume she’s okay because she hasn’t said anything? Are they going to demand she speak out against Israel because she’s Jewish and might be a Zionist? How are pro-Palestinians to know which Jews are Zionists and which aren’t?

Maybe you want to have a sit-down with the Zionist organizations constantly claiming that 90% of American Jews support Israel. You can’t keep up this rope-a-dope and expect it not to come right back in your face eventually. The American Jews who don’t support Netanyahu and his butchery let others know not just to avoid recriminations, but because Israel’s government is deeply abhorrent.

I’d say the vast majority of Zionists don’t support Netanyahu or the violence in Gaza. But thank you for confirming that we need to let everyone know. I’m not much of a talker so I’ll just wear some kind of patch on my lapel.

I’d like to point out though that it’s considered very offensive to expect Muslims to speak out against terrorism when there are terrorist attacks carried out by jihadists, and I certainly would never ask that of anyone.

Rejecting those who weaponize their wealth and platform to incite violence in US campuses and shill for a genocidal foreign government is not a purity test. Turning your back and walking away from an inhumane, violent power class is not a purity test. Seinfeld continues his life of immense privilege, he can’t buy respect or hearts and minds.

Life of immense privilege? He’s not some nepo baby. He’s a successful comedian.

Want to know what privilege is? Vandalizing and occupying a building on your college campus in the name of protesting for a “righteous” cause, and then asking the university to send catering and “basic humanitarian aid.”

He is head of the parents association at Duke. One child attends Duke and the other graduated, so it is a logical choice.

He is humorous and didn’t make any political statements so he is a fantastic choice.

After opening with a few jokes, Seinfeld shared his "three real keys to life," which boiled down to:
Work hard.
Pay attention.
Fall in love.
"Whatever you're doing, I don't care if it's your job, your hobby, a relationship, getting a reservation at M Sushi," he said. "Make an effort. Just pure, stupid, no-real-idea-what-I'm-doing-here effort. Effort always yields a positive value, even if the outcome of the effort is absolute failure of the desired result. This is a rule of life. Just swing the bat and pray is not a bad approach to a lot of things."

I am not on any side but the pro-Palestine tactic of blocking a highways to places like Disney world or other freeways. Or protesting someone saying something not political is absolutely losing them support. I used to be neutral and now have an absolutely negative view toward Palestine protestors.

Are you oblivious to the fact that his wife donated $500K to the terrorist group that is under state and federal investigation for hate crimes after descending on UCLA and assaulting students, faculty and staff, and others protesting the war? Did you miss that part of what’s going on in the world?

I love Jerry, but he’s radioactive now and for the foreseeable future.

A “terrorist group?” You mean one of the few groups protecting our Jewish students from the extremist Islamists that are infesting our college campuses.

The Nazis considered those that hid Jews in their basements to be terrorists as well. Nowadays we call them heroes.

You consider was those cowardly animals did at UCLA heroic, wearing hoods and masks while they attacked students, faculty, staff and other protesters? Striking them, kicking them, spitting in their faces and calling them the N word, among other choice insults and threats? As they battered them with fence sections, metal poles, baseball bats, and blocks of concrete?

If so, that just means you’re a terrorist sympathizer. Hardly surprising …

Well, maybe they would not have to defend themselves if our police would do the right thing and start actually defending Jewish students, not just this catch and release bullshit against radical Islamist extremists pushing for the genocide of the Jewish people. Start using live ammunition against these protesters and see how quickly these monsters decide Hamas isn’t the good guys in this conflict.

Actually, before the attack, UCLA faculty were warning about harassment of people at the encampment, asking the university to protect the pro-Palestinian protesters from attacks.

The Post’s examination also found that faculty had raised concerns for days about harassment of pro-Palestinian activists and physical violence directed at people in the protest encampment

At 2:35 p.m., Danielle Carr, an assistant professor at UCLA’s Institute for Society and Genetics, wrote an email seeking to sound an alarm about “truly unbelievable” aggression against protesters during the pro-Israeli counterprotest two days earlier. “I know that many faculty are wondering what the administration plans to do to protect our students,” Carr wrote to an office responsible for handling complaints of sexual violence and harassment.

Buuuuutttt a drama student already notorious on campus for being an agitator after just his freshman year really wanted to walk directly through the protest (even though that path was one of four to the building he was arguing he needed to get to, and even though he actually had no class in that building), said that one of the protesters looked at him funny! Can someone explain to me why the national guard wasn’t called in with Apache gunshots to strafe the protest encampment?! Thus student’s life was at stake if he didn’t get to walk through the protest!

Not going to bother mocking the fake video of the girl on the ground that was propagated to try to dupe people into thinking the protesters had been violent.

All in all, a typical Zionist operation that the Keystone Kops would have been proud of.

/s

And there it is. The innocent Jewish student being incessantly threatened by violent extremist Islamists calling for genocide against him and his people is clearly just a “troublemaker,” not a deeply traumatized kid who paid tens of thousands of dollars to attend a school he thought was safe.

Nope. Those pesky Jewish “troublemakers,” why don’t they just shut up and led the radical Islamists who have infiltrated our society just brutally murder them, then we can all be happy living in Hamas’ idyllic society. We will be just as happy as the Palestinians living in Gaza soon!

You missed the plot. Most people don't want anything to do with Hamas or Zionists. Is that lost on you? If you are a violent terrorist (that label applies to both Hamas and Zionists), we reject you. Is that not clear enough?

Hamas is a terrorist organization.
Zionism is not. It is simply the belief in a Jewish homeland. Most Jews (over ninety percent, per surveys) are Zionists. And most of them are not violent terrorists. Yes, Netanyahu and his government are. But that does not change the fact that Hamas is a terrorist organization by definition and Zionism is not.

The bolded above is simply untrue. I have no objection to the existence of Israel. What I object to is the virulent, at-any-cost manner in which striving for a Jewish homeland has been permitted to transform into a vicious, kill-or-be-killed, genocidal displacement of Palestinians - the vast majority of whom are not wielding weapons to harm any nearby Jews. Despite the fact that Israeli settlers are explicitly enabled by the IDF to wield such weapons in indiscriminately killing Palestinians whose sin is owning and occupying their own land, most of these Palestinians are forced to live in fear of when, not if, but when the settlers come for them next.

Zionism created Israel through horrific violence - you know and I know it. Everyone knows it. Menachem Begin and his ilk were prototypical terrorists based on the term's definition. And Zionism today IS Benjamin Netanyahu and his government. These people are terrorists, not to mention kleptocratic scumbags. That's what Zionism is today. And I reject it. 100% reject it.

It's not about a Jewish homeland any longer, and it hasn't been for decades. I'm sorry that you cannot see that.

We will make North Gaza a living, open-air museum on the depths of human depravity, with hundreds of thousands of videos projected on its wasteland.

Most of the Jews who were killed on 10/7 were also innocent and simply trying to live their lives. Everything's that happening in Gaza would be over if Hamas surrendered and turned over the hostages. The burden is on Hamas.

Most of the Jews who were killed on 10/7 were also innocent and simply trying to live their lives. Everything's that happening in Gaza would be over if Hamas surrendered and turned over the hostages. The burden is on Hamas.

That is a complete lie.

Lie.

LOL, you can't even acknowledge most of the people killed on 10/7 were innocent? Wow, that hole runs deep.

I am not on any side but the pro-Palestine tactic of blocking a highways to places like Disney world or other freeways. Or protesting someone saying something not political is absolutely losing them support. I used to be neutral and now have an absolutely negative view toward Palestine protestors.

Are you oblivious to the fact that his wife donated $500K to the terrorist group that is under state and federal investigation for hate crimes after descending on UCLA and assaulting students, faculty and staff, and others protesting the war? Did you miss that part of what’s going on in the world?

I love Jerry, but he’s radioactive now and for the foreseeable future.

A “terrorist group?” You mean one of the few groups protecting our Jewish students from the extremist Islamists that are infesting our college campuses.

The Nazis considered those that hid Jews in their basements to be terrorists as well. Nowadays we call them heroes.

You consider was those cowardly animals did at UCLA heroic, wearing hoods and masks while they attacked students, faculty, staff and other protesters? Striking them, kicking them, spitting in their faces and calling them the N word, among other choice insults and threats? As they battered them with fence sections, metal poles, baseball bats, and blocks of concrete?

If so, that just means you’re a terrorist sympathizer. Hardly surprising …

Well, maybe they would not have to defend themselves if our police would do the right thing and start actually defending Jewish students, not just this catch and release bullshit against radical Islamist extremists pushing for the genocide of the Jewish people. Start using live ammunition against these protesters and see how quickly these monsters decide Hamas isn’t the good guys in this conflict.

Actually, before the attack, UCLA faculty were warning about harassment of people at the encampment, asking the university to protect the pro-Palestinian protesters from attacks.

The Post’s examination also found that faculty had raised concerns for days about harassment of pro-Palestinian activists and physical violence directed at people in the protest encampment

At 2:35 p.m., Danielle Carr, an assistant professor at UCLA’s Institute for Society and Genetics, wrote an email seeking to sound an alarm about “truly unbelievable” aggression against protesters during the pro-Israeli counterprotest two days earlier. “I know that many faculty are wondering what the administration plans to do to protect our students,” Carr wrote to an office responsible for handling complaints of sexual violence and harassment.

Buuuuutttt a drama student already notorious on campus for being an agitator after just his freshman year really wanted to walk directly through the protest (even though that path was one of four to the building he was arguing he needed to get to, and even though he actually had no class in that building), said that one of the protesters looked at him funny! Can someone explain to me why the national guard wasn’t called in with Apache gunshots to strafe the protest encampment?! Thus student’s life was at stake if he didn’t get to walk through the protest!

Not going to bother mocking the fake video of the girl on the ground that was propagated to try to dupe people into thinking the protesters had been violent.

All in all, a typical Zionist operation that the Keystone Kops would have been proud of.

/s

And there it is. The innocent Jewish student being incessantly threatened by violent extremist Islamists calling for genocide against him and his people is clearly just a “troublemaker,” not a deeply traumatized kid who paid tens of thousands of dollars to attend a school he thought was safe.

Nope. Those pesky Jewish “troublemakers,” why don’t they just shut up and led the radical Islamists who have infiltrated our society just brutally murder them, then we can all be happy living in Hamas’ idyllic society. We will be just as happy as the Palestinians living in Gaza soon!

You missed the plot. Most people don't want anything to do with Hamas or Zionists. Is that lost on you? If you are a violent terrorist (that label applies to both Hamas and Zionists), we reject you. Is that not clear enough?

Hamas is a terrorist organization.
Zionism is not. It is simply the belief in a Jewish homeland. Most Jews (over ninety percent, per surveys) are Zionists. And most of them are not violent terrorists. Yes, Netanyahu and his government are. But that does not change the fact that Hamas is a terrorist organization by definition and Zionism is not.

The bolded above is simply untrue. I have no objection to the existence of Israel. What I object to is the virulent, at-any-cost manner in which striving for a Jewish homeland has been permitted to transform into a vicious, kill-or-be-killed, genocidal displacement of Palestinians - the vast majority of whom are not wielding weapons to harm any nearby Jews. Despite the fact that Israeli settlers are explicitly enabled by the IDF to wield such weapons in indiscriminately killing Palestinians whose sin is owning and occupying their own land, most of these Palestinians are forced to live in fear of when, not if, but when the settlers come for them next.

Zionism created Israel through horrific violence - you know and I know it. Everyone knows it. Menachem Begin and his ilk were prototypical terrorists based on the term's definition. And Zionism today IS Benjamin Netanyahu and his government. These people are terrorists, not to mention kleptocratic scumbags. That's what Zionism is today. And I reject it. 100% reject it.

That’s why it’s so dumb to argue with the crazies on the internet. I would never voluntarily interact with one of the nutjobs spewing nonsense on a NYC subway, but if they say it on an anonymous Internet forum, why do I feel so compelled to reply? People holding these views aren’t mentally sound.

they dont want the hostages they want to kill every single Palestinian.
And you know it.

Nice attempt at deflection.

When i see a “i stand with israel” sign on a lawn that means “i want all Palestinians dead”.

? Absolutely no one said or implied that. Inflammatory. Jerry Seinfeld is know to have “stood with Israel” since the start of its invasion into Gaza. The students who walked out did so not because he is Jewish but because of that vocal and public stance. Israel does not equal Jewish. Saying that Israel is a bad actor in this scenario is not antisemitism.

And that does not address my comment.
It IS implied that Jews need to pass a purity test to be acceptable.
What if Mila Kunis was a keynote speaker? I don’t believe she’s taken a public stance either way. Are pro-Palestinian students going to assume she’s okay because she hasn’t said anything? Are they going to demand she speak out against Israel because she’s Jewish and might be a Zionist? How are pro-Palestinians to know which Jews are Zionists and which aren’t?

Rejecting those who weaponize their wealth and platform to incite violence in US campuses and shill for a genocidal foreign government is not a purity test. Turning your back and walking away from an inhumane, violent power class is not a purity test. Seinfeld continues his life of immense privilege, he can’t buy respect or hearts and minds.

This still does not address my comment.
I want to know what you would do if a Jew, whose opinions on Israel are not publicly known, was giving the commencement address at your graduation. Would you demand a statement from them to determine if you are willing to sit through their speech or not?

Just answer the question. I have asked it repeatedly and you keep doubling down about Jerry Seinfeld.

No, you are talking about the way some awful people have interpreted Zionism in order to justify violence.
Much like how the Koran does not tell Muslims to kill infidels, but some terrorists unfortunately interpret it that way.
