Palestinian Expulsion and Resistance
Causes event in Astoria by NYC Democratic Socialists of America on Tuesday, May 14 2019with 124 people interested.
On Tuesday evening, May 14, at 6pm, there is an event that is "Celebrating Palestinian Resistance" happening in our neighborhood of Astoria, Queens, that we, the small Jewish community of Astoria, are galvanizing the NY Jewish and pro-Israel community to join us in confronting. We were told by the organizer, Caleb Dejong, who is a member of the board of the church, that our "opinions won't be welcome at this event", and that "saying controversial things about Palestine won't be tolerated"
It is time for the Jewish community, and all pro-Israel Americans, to confront this grass roots propaganda campaign that aims at turning Americans against the 6 and half million Jews of the Holy Land. We cannot continue to be silent while these Jew-haters are rising up all over college campuses, mosques and churches across the world and here in the United States.
The small Jewish community here in Astoria needs your help. The horrible Israel-bashing pro-Arab terrorism event will unfortunately take place in the Redeeemer Episcopal Church in Astoria, Queens at 3014 Crescent street, Astoria, NY 11102. from 6-9pm. https://www.facebook.com/events/319732518712440/?ti=as
The event is described as "Palestinian Expulsion and Resistance: The Nakba, BDS, and the Great Return March. Timed to coincide with the Nakba, or the catastrophe, where the Palestinian people were expelled from their ancestral home, this event will focus on education about the Nakba, current sanction movements including Boycott, Disinvest and Sanction (BDS), No Way to Treat a Child and the Great Return March." The panel discussion will be from 6-8pm.
The speakers are Raja Abdulhaq, ( https://canarymission.org/individual/Raja_Abdulhaq ) who openly supports killing innocent Jews in Israel and calls Hamas a movement engaging in legitimate resistance.
and Nerdeen Kiswani, ( https://canarymission.org/individual/Nerdeen-Mohsen_Kiswani/ )president of the New York City chapter of the so-called "Students for Justice in Palestine" (SJP) group, who publicly praised an Arab terrorist's truck-ramming attack in Jerusalem on January 8, 2017, which killed four Israeli soldiers (two of whom were American citizens) and wounded 17 others. The terrorist, who lived in eastern Jerusalem, drove into a group of soldiers who were on an educational trip, and then reversed and drove back over the bodies after he hit them to ensure their deaths. In a Facebook post Kiswani chastised those who condemned this murderous terror attack, claiming "no apology [for the attack was] needed." Instead, Kiswani publicly praised Palestinian Arabs who rejoiced over the attack and gave out sweets to celebrate it, describing their actions as "the biggest 'F you'" to "settlers."
It is being advertised on social media and according to the pastor, it will be packed. We want to bring people who are passionate and knowledgeable about Israel to the event to ask questions, give facts, give out leaflets about the speakers and the situation in Gaza, Judea and Samaria, and stage a protest outside. We'd like to reach the community and get the word out that we need you to be there and support us to confront this libelous event happening right here in Queens, NY in our backyard.
Join us to bring the light of truth to this event of lies and darkness right in our neighborhood. We will meet beforehand to discuss strategy at the event. This is a dangerous phenomenon that is exposing unsuspecting Americans to vile slander against the Jews of our Holy Land.
Please contact me so that the pro-Israel community can come to Astoria and help us.
