Targeting Christmas

Radical pro-Hamas protesters took to the streets outside the Virginia homes of National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan and Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin on Christmas Day.

Sullivan, as you may recall, played a major role in spreading various elements of the Russia collusion hoax. He never paid a price for it. In fact, he was rewarded with a top position in the Biden White House. But I digress. . .

These pro-Palestinian, anti-Semitic crazies were chanting justifications for mass murder, such as, “Resistance is justified when people are occupied!” Outside of Austin’s home, they also chanted, “Austin, Austin, rise and shine. No sleep during genocide!”

Imagine hearing that outside your home as your family is trying to celebrate the birth of Christ.

But to me, there is a bigger underreported story.

We just went through the Chanukah and the Christmas seasons. During these holy weeks, there were attacks on Jewish and Christian symbols and events. It was systematic. It was all over the country. It was intentional.

In virtually every case, a significant percentage of the people involved were adherents of Islam, along with their left-wing allies.

During the past 22 years after 9/11, anytime anything untoward happened at a mosque or against any Muslim, the country’s political and media elites went ballistic and defended Islam as “a religion of peace.”

Well, a segment of Muslim America has just spent the last four weeks attacking Jewish and Christian events, and there’s not been one statement from Biden or the media condemning these attacks on Jewish and Christian events as “religious bigotry” or “un-American.”

There’s nothing. Just crickets.

This silence will predictably lead to even more aggressive and violent action in the near future. There will be outright attacks on churches and synagogues. There will be sit-ins inside churches and synagogues. There will be demonstrations outside the homes of Christian and Jewish leaders.

If it isn’t confronted now, it will get worse.

Here’s something to ponder about where this could lead.

Donald Trump has said that he would reestablish the immigration ban on nations supporting terrorism. Most of those nations are Islamic countries.

The left reflexively attacked Trump’s plan, even in the middle of these rampages by adherents of Islam against other faiths. All he wants to do is stop importing more hate until we can figure out who is peaceful and who is going to abuse our laws.

Well, there was a disturbing anti-Israel demonstration in Paris. Jews were told to stay home, and the French government was widely criticized for not doing anything in response to the roving mobs in the streets.

The Macron government then announced that it would ban future demonstrations over the controversy in the Middle East. A few days later, one million Muslims marched in Paris. A Muslim man in the huge crowd got his 15 seconds of social media fame when he leaned into the camera and said, “We conquered Paris faster than Hitler did.”
