2,500 Rabbis Denounce Union for Representing ‘Hate-Filled, Anti-Israel, Antisemitic’ Activist Group
18th August 2024
Legacy media outlets and left-leaning nonprofits may seek to distance themselves from the anti-Israel protests on college campuses and in Washington, D.C., many of which have devolved into outright antisemitism. Yet influential outlets and activist groups have at least one key tie to a notorious group supporting the anti-Israel protests, and an organization that represents more than 2,500 Orthodox Jewish rabbis is sounding the alarm.
Despite its anodyne name, Jewish Voice for Peace enflames anti-Israel sentiment. On the very day that Hamas terrorists raped, murdered, and took hostages in Israel (Oct. 7, 2023), JVP leaders blamed “Israeli apartheid and occupation” as “the source of all this violence.”
In the weeks afterward, Jewish Voice for Peace rallygoers in Providence, Rhode Island, chanted, “Hey hey, ho ho, the Yahudi [Jews] have got to go!” JVP speakers in Philadelphia stated: “The anticolonial armed resistance out of the Gaza Strip was provoked by decades of Israeli state-sanctioned violence and to report it otherwise is false and misleading.”
This underscores my suspicion that Islam is a deliberate attempt by Satan to extirpate the Chosen People of God. Prove me wrong.
