In 2017 anti semitic attacks increased 67% from 2016. That surge has continued into 2018.

Hmm? I wonder what happened in 2017 that might have encourage them? It couldn't be that that's when Donald Trump took office could it?

I think it is reasonable to assume that the Arab nations are taking advantage of our social media the same way we know the Russians and Chinese are.

Or maybe as Trump suggested, it's a 400 pound hacker in his basement.

“President Trump, you are not welcome in Pittsburgh until you fully denounce white nationalism,” the leaders of the local chapter of Bend the Arc wrote, adding:
“For the past three years, your words and your policies have emboldened a growing white nationalist movement. You yourself called the murderer evil, but yesterday’s violence is the direct culmination of your influence.”
The group said Trump’s rhetoric had not only led to attacks on Jewish people, but also “deliberately undermined the safety of people of color, Muslims, LGBTQ people and people with disabilities.”

The organization also demanded that Trump “stop targeting and endangering all minorities,” “cease your assault on immigrants and refugees” and “commit yourself to compassionate, democratic policies that recognize the dignity of all of us.”

These "progressive" Jewish voices also hate George Bush, PM Netanyahu, the nation of Israel, Jesus Christ, etc.

They have no idea who their real friends and enemies are. They even stand up for the "oppressed" Palestinians.

Deuteronomy 27:19 Cursed is anyone who with holds Justice from The Foreigner, the fatherless or the Widow. Then all the people shall say Amen. Exodus 12:49 the same law applies both to the native-born and to The Foreigner residing among you. Exodus 23: 9 do not oppress a foreigner. You yourselves know how it feels to be foreigners because you were foreigners in Egypt.

Every news event is used by the media to divide America:

Tree of Life Rabbi to CNN: Trump ‘Always Welcome’ at Our Synagogue, ‘He Is My President’


How unfortunate that some voices were used by the Media to smear Trump, and then others are forced to speak up on behalf of Trump.
