Jewish organizations abandon anti-Semitism meeting with Dept. of Ed. after they ambushed them with leftist groups


On Friday, Jewish organizations pulled out of what was supposed to be a high-level meeting with the Department of Education aimed at dealing with anti-Semitism on campuses across the country. The reason they refused to participate in the farce was due to the addition of far-left groups at the last minute.  It was designed to be an ambush but it didn't work. [H/T Fox News Digital.]

The Jewish Insider reported that the groups which "either did not participate in or dropped off the call" included the Anti-Defamation League, the Jewish Federations of North America, Hillel International, the Orthodox Union, the Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law, and the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations.

The decision to forgo the gotcha get-together was made shortly before the 10 a.m. meeting between the Jewish groups and Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona, White House Domestic Policy Adviser Neera Tanden, along with other senior officials. 

According to Jewish Insider, government officials sent out a list of participating organizations literally 20 minutes prior to the meeting. The list "included a number of left-wing groups not usually included in White House convenings," prompting the last-minute withdrawal. 

The meeting with the Department of Education continued as scheduled, but a separate meeting for the objecting organizations took place Friday afternoon.

According to Jewish Insider, the mainstream Jewish organizations took particular issue with the invitation of the Diaspora Alliance, which is "closely aligned with the far-left Jewish activist group IfNotNow," a title they stole from Jewish philosopher Hillel the Elder.

The group IfNotNow is an anti-Israel [fake] Jewish organization that has a history of staging protests by blocking highways and inconveniencing people. Its website pretends Israel has an "apartheid system" and states that the Jewish nation "massacres Palestinians in Gaza." They don't mention what the Gazans did on October 7, 2023, as if Israel has no right to fight back from the real genocidal scumbags.

IfNotNow also released a letter of support [yes, a few of them know how to write] for the anti-Semite agitators at Columbia University and other New York colleges this week, calling them, "brave students [who] have spoken up in solidarity with Palestinians as they face a genocide in which our country and their universities are complicit."

So the Department of Education has made a name for itself, but the name is nothing to brag about.
