But please don’t say there has been no increase in antisemitism. The ugliness is everywhere. Including in Yonkers NY where a Jewish HS ( The Leffell School) basketball team was playing Roosevelt HS.

They had to stop the game because the players on Roosevelt’s team were roughing them up and playing violently. They also shouted antisemitic slurs.

It seems that one of the slurs they shouted was “Free Palestine” during the game, while another one was “I’m pro-Hamas you f%#^*ing Jew”. Let’s just see if they suffer any consequences.

Please post a video of the game so others can evaluate the allegations of roughness (a mike may or may not have picked up verbal comments). Otherwise, there's no proof here, just allegations against a team composed primarily of minority students.

Children will stereotype and repeat things they’ve heard other children say. They all develop differently and learn social skills a varying paces. Holding children to the same expectations as adults seems unfair. How will they learn? What if they make mistakes and are labeled racists or bigots?

“Free Palestine” is not a slur. The fact that you think so is a show of Zionist fragility. Because Palestine is not free, it’s occupied and that is a fact. Even if it hurts your feelings.

On October 26, they killed his wife Amna, his 15-year old son Mahmoud, his 7-year old daughter Sham, and his 18-month grandson Adam. They were killed in a "safe location" where IDF instructed them to evacuate from the north.

In December, IDF wounded him in a drone strike and killed his cameraman Samer Abu Daqqa, who was left to bleed out in the street while IDF shooters prevented medical help from reaching him.

Today in southern Gaza they killed his oldest son Hamza, an Al-Jazeera's network journalist and cameraman. Another freelance journalist Mustafa Thuraya was killed with him.

I don't know how much grief one person can take and still stand straight.



The IDF is incredibly vindictive and vicious. Like every autocratic regime, it deliberately targets voices who speak out against it. It tracks down the people it hates and either murders them or their families or both. Of course, it is going after this poor man. Israel is an evil regime. When the obviously fake story about "a baby baked in an oven" came out, a Palestinian writer, Refaat Alareer, joked about baking powder being used. This may not have been in the best taste, but he was obviously thinking of baking a baby as a creative act in the same way as baking a cake, and the story of the baby in an oven was not true. However, this made him a marked man. The IDF called him as he was taking refuge in an UNRWA school in Gaza and told him it was going to kill him. Not wanting the thousands of other refugees in the building to be killed, he left. The IDF tracked him to his sister's apartment and bombed it, killing him, his sister, and his sister's four children. This was a calculated, brutal atrocity.


They behave largely how you'd expect people with too much military power and weaponry for their own good to behave against a perceived weaker adversary.

What they don't quite get in their zeal to retaliate, kill, and, humiliate the Palestinians is that their behavior stokes anti-Semitism around the entire world.

If the IDF thugs are lucky, they'll be able to safely retreat back to their homes in Tel Aviv or Netanya in a few months, but the antipathy they are engendering towards Jewish people around the world will not quickly go away, given how well documented their atrocities are. And maybe that's fine with them, to the extent they want others to feel like Israel is the only safe place for Jews.

But PP's feelings are all that matter!

Those of other people matter not one bit, whether they are political prisoners in Israel, people being starved and bombed in Gaza, or those who simply don't want their tax dollars funding Israeli war crimes.

No, not at all. I am curious because I have heard my child make off color remarks about all different types of people, my child is a tween though and neurodiverse. But I worry about her offending people as well as her safety. She has no filter. Does anyone else have this experience with their kids? Or just me?

You’re not alone. There is a lot of development and maturity that comes along from early teens to young adulthood.

I am sure there is an increase in antisemitism. The behavior at the basketball game is horrible, especially roughing up other players. "Free Palestine" is not antisemitic (one can be sympathetic to Palestinians' political aspirations without having any animosity toward Jews), but the other statement you mention is repugnant. Nobody should say that, and I hope the players will be disciplined.

How should they be disciplined in order to leave an impact? How do we teach kids that this isn’t acceptable? Some kids really aren’t able to understand why some things just can’t be said. Children are all over the place developmentally, what punishment would really teach them?

Gaza sure was not occupied. Hamas drove it into hell.
