SUMMARY:The Rise of Antisemitism within the United States
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe transcript will be available here \nFor perhaps the first time in our history\, the Jewish community in the United States is feeling besieged by unprecedented attacks on both the extreme left\, and the extreme right. The Jewish community of New York City\, the largest community of Jews outside of Israel\, is feeling frightened\, abandoned and confused. Tucker Carlson has given the white supremacist\, and Holocaust-denier\, Nick Fuentes a welcome embrace\, and Kevin Roberts of the Heritage Foundation had uncritically defended Tucker Carlson. This has led to several resignations within Heritage\, and\, after a week of outrage\, a later apology from Kevin Roberts. There is also a growing isolationist trend within republican politics.  We are seeing a civil war within the right. \nHowever\, that right-wing “civil war” pales in comparison to the woke embrace of radical left-wing socialists who are sympathetic to radical Islamists on the left. The recent mayoral election in New York of Zohran Mamdani has us greatly alarmed. Mr. Mamdani has made inflammatory statements regarding the state of Israel\, calling what is happening in Gaza a “genocide”. While a student at Bowdoin College\, he formed an alliance with the radical left-wing Jewish group J Street and subsequently shut the alliance down.  He has made deftly-crafted  statements such as\, “My support for BDS is consistent with the core of my politics\, which is nonviolence. And I think that it is a legitimate movement when you are seeking to find compliance with international law.” He is attempting to threaten the partnership of Cornell and the Technion in Haifa\, and has vowed to “arrest” Prime Minister Netanyahu\, if he even lands in New York. Based on interviews in the New York Times\, his words represent the views of thousands of Muslims throughout the United States. \nIn August of 1790\, President George Washington wrote a letter to the congregation of Newport\, Rhode Island\, saying “May the children of the stock of Abraham who dwell in this land continue to merit and enjoy the good will of the other inhabitants—while every one shall sit in safety under his own vine and fig tree and there shall be none to make him afraid.” \nAre we\, Jews of America\, still feeling that same sense of “safety” today? \nHere to discuss this is Eric Mandel.  \nAbout our Speaker: Dr. Eric Mandel is the founder and Director of MEPIN™\, the Middle East Political Information Network™. MEPIN is a Middle East research analysis read by members of Congress\, their foreign policy advisors\, journalists\, think tanks\, foreign officials\, and organizational leaders. \nHe regularly briefs members of Congress and their staffs about the current geopolitical situation in the Middle East and how it affects American national security interests. \nHe is the Senior Security Editor of the Jerusalem Report / Jerusalem Post\, writing about Iran\, Lebanon\, Jordan\, Egypt\, the Gulf States\, Turkey\, Kurdistan\, the US-Israel relationship\, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict\, and Syria. His work appears in The Hill\, National Interest\, RealClearWorld\, ABC News\, the Forward\, JNS\, i24\, Rudow (Iraq)\, IsraelNationalNews\, JTA\, Algemeiner\, Israel Hayom\, Thinc.\, Defense News\, and other publications.
