Durham City Council Sides with Anti-Israeli Activists



Every state has its freak show and Durham has elected to be ours. That’s saying a lot considering North Carolina made national headlines when Charlotte passed its infamous bathroom ordinance. I’m sure all those Triad libtards bristled with envy for not having thought of that one first. However, they sure do dishout their share of San Francisco treats.


As long as I’ve been posting on this blog, Durham has been in the forefront of liberal stupidity. Back in 2010, their Human Relations Council compared Arizona’s immigration law to apartheid in South Africa. A couple of months later, the city council passed a resolution to boycott that great state. I’m sure Arizona was quaking in its boots.


That same month, Durham passed a resolution allowing illegal aliens to use matricula cards as identification at traffic stops. Mind you, North Carolina requires a driver’s license to operate a vehicle. This act directly defied our state law. But as we all know, laws are just a suggestion to liberals.


Durham isn’t a one trick pony. Earlier this month, a band of self-loathing Jews, along with various Muslim organizations, petitioned the city council to ban local police departments from training with Israeli defensive forces, and to put a stop to the “occupation.” Here is an excerpt from the News and Observer:


A coalition of 10 local groups wants the Durham City Council to cut any police ties with Israel, but several local Jewish leaders don't want that to happen.


The Triangle chapter of Jewish Voice for Peace and other groups started circulating a "Demilitarize from Durham2Palestine" petition in October. It has more than 1,200 signatures, but the petition does not show if those who signed are from Durham or not.



Other groups in the coalition are the Abrahamic Initiative on the Middle East, Black Youth Project 100 - Durham Chapter, Durham for All, Inside Outside Alliance, Muslim American Public Affairs Council, Muslims for Social Justice, SpiritHouse, Students for Justice in Palestine at Duke University and Students for Justice in Palestine at UNC Chapel Hill.


Those groups sound reputable, ahem. Beth Brunch is one of those petitioners. She wrote an op-ed that was also published in the Observer. But first get a load of this little gem:


Beth Bruch of Triangle Jewish Voice for Peace said she is concerned with the way Israel's military has been training local police departments.


"We are certainly not blaming Israel for making U.S. police forces racist, we know there’s a long history of racism in the U.S.," Bruch said. But she thinks training makes it worse in terms of racial profiling and use of force in crowd control.



So all cops are racist? Blacks at the Durham police department should be surprised to find that out.


I’m sure Beth Brunch is a highly educated individual. I have no doubt that she’s been well indoctrinate in the liberal art of self-loathing and anti-Americanism. Here is an excerpt from her co-authored op-ed:


Seventy-five years ago, our people, Ashkenazi Jews, were ethnically cleansed from Eastern Europe. Now, as white Jews in the United States, we benefit from white supremacy and recognize we live on land stolen through genocide. Durham rests on the land of the Eno and of the Occaneechee Band of the Saponi Nation.


Here’s another paragraph:


And we know that policing in the U.S. has a long history of violence against black, brown, and queer communities. From surveillance of Muslim families, to traffic stops that target black drivers, to SWAT teams entering black people’s homes illegally, to checkpoints that target immigrant communities, to police murders of black, brown, and disabled people, the everyday militarization of police in Durham and across the country already endangers our communities.


Wow, what a hellhole country we live in. But at least we’re not as bad as Israel. I mean, how dare those people protect themselves from a supremacist ideology that exhorts the death and enslavement of Jews. 


I fear for our people and the people of Israel when I read this kind of crap. After the holocaust, you would think a Jew would know better.
