Lemon says Borgen was "wearing a yarmulke" but omits video & photos showing he was wearing a hoodie that would have covered any kippa.

Video also shows him attempting to charge at the accused after the melee, shouting, "One on one!"

One youth is now charged with a hate crime.
If Borgen was targeted *as a Jew* - and not as a pro-Israel demonstrator engaged in a political dispute with Palestinians - then how could anyone see the kippa he claimed he was wearing?

He was wearing a hoodie, bore no religious garb I can see, yet it's treated as a hate crime ImageImage
CNN's @donlemon claims the accused were chanting "F Jews" but offers no evidence. He also says Jews are removing mezuzahs from their doors because they are being hunted down at home, which is absurd

It looks like an effort to change the subject from piles of dead kids in Gaza.
Similarly, @BreitbartNews has framed this scene as an anti-Semitic attack on a pro-Israel demonstrator, when, in fact, it is a dispute between Palestinians because man being shoved (who is a friend) was falsely accused by someone accused of vandalism. breitbart.com/videos/v/Mr64a…
Meanwhile, politicians in Canada have yet to retract or apologize for falsely accusing Palestine solidarity protesters of anti-Semitic violence when they were, in fact, defending themselves from armed Jewish Defense League thugs.

Zionist hoodlums in Canada assaulted supporters of Palestine, posted deceptively edited video to paint themselves as victims, and elicited statements from politicians condemning the actual victims of their racist thuggery. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
In this video - completely ignored by Canadian politicians - police had to protect Palestine solidarity demonstrators from a mob of violent Zionist hoodlums, including one who was threatening to run them over (see Laith's thread) in his SUV
This same group of Zionist hoodlums - portrayed as victims of anti-Semitism by Canadian politicians - assaulted a Palestinian teacher in Washington DC in 2017 and attempted to wreck my 2016 Pen Canada talk in Toronto, requiring riot police to intervene jta.org/2017/12/25/uni…

Ha'aretz editor-in-chief Aluf Benn calls Israel's military campaign its "most failed and pointless Gaza operation ever," says "the military has no idea how to paralyze Hamas’ forces" and is afraid to fight it face-to-face for fear of heavy losses haaretz.com/israel-news/.p…

In 2014, Israel blew up Basha Tower, home to many Palestinian media offices & major “press freedom” outfits said nothing. Last week, it bombed Shorouq Tower, base of Palestinian media offices - more silence.

Is this what it will take for these NGOs to condemn Israel’s terror?
This is such a pathetic and revealing statement by the corporate-backed @pressfreedom demanding Israeli “provide...justification” for its deliberate attacks on journalists. cpj.org/2021/05/israel…
There will be no #PsakiBomb condemning Israel’s military dictatorship as it literally bombs journalists working under siege in Gaza. This is the “rules based order,” where the US green lights apartheid terror.

Zionist pogromists beat a motorist senseless today in the city of Bat Yam, just south of Tel Aviv-Yafa. They suspected him of being a Palestinian.

This is awesome, the CIA is almost taking credit for the narcissistic radlibs that infest the US left and summoning them home to base
The inspirational quote on the CIA diversity wall from the US/UK project Aung Sang Suu Kyi was just 👌 Image

There would not have been so much suspicion about AOC's role if she had not previously branded harsh criticism by @jimmy_dore as "violence," or enlisted her campaign's supporters to report social media critics to Twitter & FB censors as "disinformation." thegrayzone.com/2021/04/09/ant…
All it took was one fabricated allegation to US Secret Service Police by a powerful exile lobby weaponized by the US gov't to trigger my arrest and jailing.

I suspect something similar was done to @queeralamode – and it will happen to others soon. thegrayzone.com/2019/12/07/us-…
What the US Capitol (Thought) Police did to @queeralamode was absolutely monstrous, and its explanation for targeting him is absurd.

I'm sure the Capitol Police effort "to build files," as referenced here by AOC, was only limited to right-wing racists, and not leftist critics.
