PA leaders are pleased with the anti-Israel protests at American universities but are unwilling to tolerate similar demonstrations at their own universities, fearing that they could be used by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) to create instability and insecurity.
In recent weeks, PA security officers have been removing Hamas flags from electricity poles in villages and towns in the West Bank. PA security forces have also foiled attempts by some students to set up encampments at Palestinian campuses similar to the ones at Columbia University and other campuses in the United States.
So let me get this straight. As far as the Palestinian Authority in the west bank is concerned here in the US it’s perfectly OK to target Jews to tear down the US flag and fly the Palestinian flag instead and to blockade and occupy college buildings, property and even set up checkpoint to restrict people in support of Hamas and to oppose any of that stuff is “islamophobic”
If however you are in lands that are actually controlled by the Palestinian Authority, well we can’t have that since it might help Hamas who they really don’t like much anyways.
Oddly I don’t think I’ve heard a single member of the press or congress who have been defending these “protests” in the US object one bit to their repression by Palestinians in the area where they wish to create a Palestinian state.

Policeman 1: [Running into station seeing big fight & massive crowd] Call up Ballinrobe tell them to send the inspector down here send reinforcements the regents. There’s a riot down here!
Policeman 2: [Picking up phone and shouting into it] Ballinrobe, Ballinrobe!
[scene changes to the fight and then returns]
Policeman 1: [On the phone] Yes inspector, thank you sir.
Policeman 2: What did he say?
Policeman 1: He said put Five Pounds on Danaher’s Nose

Every now and then people make a wish, a really stupid wish and every now and then the world decides to grant that stupid wish and give said people just what they asked for.
This happened to the “protestors” at UCLA yesterday. Police had arrived in force and the “protestors” being the leftists that they are did not take kindly to their arrival.
They chanted “Pigs Go Home” and had signs up saying “Fuck UCPD” and “ACAB” (all cops are bastards) deriding the police who had arrived to restore order.
This went on for a while, and then the police decided to grant their wish and decided to withdraw…
…coincidently right at the time when a group of people, armed with pipes, upset at an attack the sent a Jewish girl, arrived.
For two hours. Multiple agencies responding to a mutual aid request from campus police apparently had conflicting or limited orders, with people on the campus hearing that officers were warned to avoid using force or making arrests.
It was at this point where those folks who where chanting “Pigs go home” were suddenly shocked SHOCLED and outraged at the lack of police presence to protect them.
Getting texts from terrified @UCLA students in the pro-Palestinian encampment, which is under attack by pro-Israel counterprotesters. "This is urgent. Please. It's getting bad. No police."
No police? Isn’t that what those students showing “pigs go home” just a few minutes before wanted? Why aren’t they all delighted?
Zionist groups at UCLA attacked the pro-#Palestine student encampment. They launched fireworks, assaulted students, and used pepper spray and bear spray. Clashes are still ongoing.
Where are the police? Why they “fucked off” just like you asked them to.
What we seem to have hear is a failure to communicate the redefinition of words which has become common among the left these days. When the pro-hamas anti-Semite radicals where saying:
“Pigs Go Home”
They apparently actually meant:
“Please Mr. Policeman protect us from our enemies who want revenge on us for beating up that girl”
They never meant “fuck the police” as a statement of principle, as any form of expression regarding their personal beliefs. It was cosplay; they were making fashionable mouth sounds, morally and intellectually empty child-noises from howling human voids gibbering mindless nonsense with absolutely nothing happening in the gob of fat they use for a brain. Empty, pathetic, worthless.
Fortunately for the Hamas crowd the Mayor, perhaps realizing that it was a crowd of Democrat voters who were now at risk instead of just Jewish girls, finally called the police giving permission to engage and within an hour things were quiet again.
It’s worth noting that once the police had removed the danger the pro-terrorist protesters faced from their attackers a familiar refrain returned to the anti-Semite encampment:

(...until our enemies come back to fight)
On the plus side the students at this place of education were given a valuable lesson about police. One of their primary duties is to protect criminals from mob justice, which can be a life saving task if you’re one of the criminals who the mob is crying for vengeance against.
Expect cries of outrage from Democrat pols who were 24 hours earlier decrying the police moving in at Columbia.
Unexpectedly of course.
For those too young to remember the great fight scene referenced at the top here it is:
One of the favorite charges of the left against the right when we warn about radical Islam ( or as others would phrase it: “Islam” ) are charges of “Islamophobia”.
Adding “phobia” to the end of words has been a cottage industry for the left to attack any person who disagrees with them. Don’t want drag queens twerking at kids you’re “Transphobic”, etc etc etc It’s gotten so bad that at a school in my own state, a trans kid was found with a hit list and is being allowed to stay in school and parents and students who object are being hit in this way.
What I find particularly amusing about these charges of “Islamophobia” (which has since become such a common word that it now appears in auto-corrects) is that while they are generally leveled by the left against the right the single best examples of it today are in fact on the left among people of the left that are in authority.
Take the campus “protests” and “occupations” taking place all over the US. In states where the right are in power the law is being enforced and any such protests are not allowed to cross legal lines without consequences and even beyond the campus when such “protestors” supporting the genocidal Islamic terror group Hamas attempt to block streets not only are they arrested but there are laws in some states that allow drivers who are blocked by such protestors to continue driving putting all the risks of being in the road on them.
Yet in blue states such protests are allowed to block major throughways with little or no consequences to the point were police are ordered to protect such folks from angered drivers. Why? Because those in power are afraid of said protestors targeting themand fear for their own safety if they do.
In other words they have a “phobia” of these people protesting in the name of Islam.
“But DaTechGuy” you counter. “Isn’t this just the Democrats trying to appease angry Muslims in Michigan in order to keep Trump from winning the state?”
That’s a fair point, although one might call that a “phobia” too but it doesn’t explain what is happening in England where police have actually detained Jews for being openly Jewish on public streets while “protestors” violate existing laws on assembly and speech while at the same time rigorously enforcing said laws on people who pray silently at abortion clinics or post an opinion online that the left finds offensive.
That doesn’t have anything to do with the election in America, that has to do with the Brits knowing that if they confront terror supporters they will fight back violently because they didn’t heed the warnings of those who said such folks are a danger to let in.
In short if you want to look at people who are suffering from “Islamophobia” look at our friends on the left because this fear is driving their inaction all over the world, and most importantly, despite the use of the term in question this fear is entirely rational.
11th Doctor:You know, since we’re talking with mouths, not really an opportunity that comes along very often, I just want to say, you know, you have never been very reliable. The Tardis (In Idris’ body): And you have? 11th Doctor: You didn’t always take me where I wanted to go. The Tardis (In Idris’ body): No, but I always took you where you needed to go.
This morning I saw something on twitter that jumped out at me. The story of a Nebraska state Senator, an Irish Catholic Democrat who finally decided to join the side he was on when it was made clear to him by the party he had stuck with all his life that if he was pro-life he was not welcome or to be supported:
Nebraska State Senator Mike McDonnell has crossed party lines and today became a Republican.
It instantly brought back memories of my first CPAC back when it was held in DC proper. I had gone to McDonalds because it was so much cheaper than the food inside (wonder if it still is today) and I hit me to interview the transit workers at the subway spot who were Democrats and Obama Supporters as they were completely different than the folks I was interviewing inside
I asked them why they were Democrats and one of them turned the tables on me and asked why I was a republican so I turned the camera on myself and gave an answer that sounded a lot like Mike McDonnell’s (about 58 seconds in)
It hit me that all of these videos had so few views now after having so many before on Youtube before I was banned and that I had gone from nearly 1000 subscribers and being ready to finally monetize the platform (I was banned when I reached 998 subscribers) to just a few dozen on Rumble with so much of my work that I did over the course of 13 years now unseen.
Of course this was the time when I was doing subscriber commentaries (that’s what Youtube used to ban me fyi) and I found one of them that I had put out as a “free” commentary to attract subscribers and is one of the better things I did.
Ah the days before my front left implant fell out
The commentary is on responsibility and how we’ve become a society of Narcissists (and BOY have we gotten worse since) but what really hit me was the Tip Jar pitch and the irony of the results.
At that time I was rising and making my pitch to rise higher but as I listed to that commentary again it occurred to me that for all the moaning I’ve done over the loss of my shift and job worries of today, if that pitch had been successful, if I had a large following and had been able to make a good living as a commentator covering events and interviewing people I would most certainly be in jail today.
You see if I had made it I would of course have gone to cover the Trump rally on January 6th 2021 covered the speeches and interviewing people there. I would have shot footages of the marches etc and when the people went into the capital I certainly would have gone in interviewing both protesters and police, giving commentary and reporting on events as they happened and uploaded all of it & written about it to inform my readers.
Thus I would have most assuredly been arrested, charged and convicted of whatever this administration and those who control is deemed to accuse of me of. I’d be rotting in a jail in DC awaiting the return of America to the days before political foes were considered enemies of the state, DaWife would likely have lost the house, with my sons taking care of her the best they could, unless they had come with me as assistants and met the same fate as Karl Rove nodded his head in approval.
Life turns on little things like then so when I finish my taxes today and look at the various struggles I have to deal with I’m reminded of what faith is.
Faith isn’t believing that God exists. This is a basic fact, faith is having trust that God knows what he is doing even when he hasn’t clued you in.
