Apple Employees Demand Company to Condemn Israel

/1 Comment/in , /by

A group of Muslim employees at Apple is pushing the tech giant to publicly condemn Israel’s “illegal occupation” of the Gaza Strip following a recent spate of violence caused by the terrorist group Hamas.

In a letter to CEO Tim Cook, members of the Apple Muslim Association on Monday expressed their “sadness, anger, frustration, and disappointment” about “the struggle and pain of the Palestinian people, and their decades-long existence under military occupation.” The letter calls on Apple to support the Palestinian cause, noting that the company “has led the way not only on products, but on human rights issues.”

The employees, however, have yet to speak out about the treatment of Uyghur Muslims in China, where Apple’s supply chain is largely located. Up to one million Uyghurs are imprisoned in “reeducation camps” in the western province of Xinjiang. A recent report found photo and documentary evidence that seven Apple suppliers use Uyghur forced labor to make iPhone parts.

More than 1,000 Apple employees have signed the letter, which boasts that Apple employees “reached out to support and will continue to support our Asian communities in the face of anti-Asian hate and attacks.” The letter also notes that Apple employees “will continue to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with our Black and Brown communities in their fight for justice and equity.” (Read more from “Apple Employees Demand Company to Condemn Israel” HERE)

Facebook Removes Pro-Israel Page With Over 75 Million Followers

/0 Comments/in , /by

The founder of a pro-Israel Facebook page that had over 75 million followers says Facebook shut down the page after “radical Islamic” groups reportedly waged a “cyber terrorism” campaign targeting the page with hate speech.

Mike Evans, the founder of the “Jerusalem Prayer Team” page, told CBN News his Facebook page was the target of a harassment campaign that was orchestrated by radical Islamic organizations who posted fake comments and then reported those comments as spam to Facebook.

“There was an organized attempt by radical Islamic organizations to achieve this objective. They posted over a million comments on our site, and then had the people contact Facebook saying that they never posted to the site,” Evans said. “That was a complete scam and fraud. It was a very clever, deceptive plan by Islamic radicals.”

Evans, who is currently in Israel leading people around the world in prayer for the country amid renewed violence with Hamas and Palestinian terrorist groups, said his page was flooded with anti-Semitic comments — including photos of and quotes from Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler. He also said the same groups that posted the comments directed people to report them to Facebook, flagging them as spam that violated the platform’s terms of service.

Activist Groups That Support Terrorists Organize Anti-Israel Protests Across U.S.

/1 Comment/in , /by

Pro-Palestine groups organized dozens of anti-Israel demonstrations in major U.S. cities over the weekend after Israeli forces responded to rocket attacks from Gaza with airstrikes.

Samidoun, a group designated as a terror organization in Israel with active chapters in the U.S., advertised 80 demonstrations from Friday through Sunday, with 49 occurring in major cities across the U.S. on Saturday. The Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM), an anti-Israel group, organized a handful of the demonstrations.

“There are currently over 200 martyrs throughout Palestine and on the borders with Lebanon, and the entire land of Palestine is rising … confronting the most brutal violence of the colonizer with steadfastness, struggle, and a revolutionary promise of a liberated future,” Samidoun said.

Samidoun and the PYM helped organize “days of resistance” protests across the U.S. in August 2020 where some participants carried the flags of Hezbollah and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). Both groups are designated as Foreign Terror Organizations by the State Department, the Daily Caller News Foundation reported. . .

Thousands of demonstrators protested for hours in Brooklyn, New York, on Saturday and climbed onto street lights, set off fireworks and stopped traffic in some areas, NBC New York reported. Samidoun advertised the protest and listed its New York chapter as an organizer. (Read more from “Activist Groups That Support Terrorists Organize Anti-Israel Protests Across U.S.” HERE)

Report: Israel Gave U.S. ‘Smoking Gun’ Evidence That Terrorists Were Working From Media Building For AP, Al Jazeera; U.S. Ready To Help Israel, Palestinians if They Seek a Ceasefire

/0 Comments/in , /by

By New York Post. Israel said it shared “smoking gun” evidence with Biden administration officials that Hamas militants were operating out of a building in the Gaza Strip that housed media outlets that was reduced to rubble by Israeli rockets, according to a report on Sunday.

President Biden spoke to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday, a discussion that included the bombing of the building, and Israel showed Biden and other American officials the intelligence behind their decision, the Jerusalem Post reported on Sunday.

“We showed them the smoking gun proving Hamas worked out of that building,” the newspaper reported, citing a source close to Foreign Minister Gabi Ashkenazi. “I understand they found the explanation satisfactory.”

In a readout of the call from the White House, Biden reaffirmed “Israel’s right to defend itself against rocket attacks from Hamas and other terrorist groups in Gaza. . .

An Israeli airstrike destroyed the 12-story building in the Gaza Strip that contained the offices of the Associated Press, Al Jazeera and other news outlets an hour after the Israeli military ordered the building be evacuated.

Report: Israel Showed U.S. Intelligence ‘Smoking Gun’ on Hamas Using Media Building

By Breitbart. Israel reportedly showed U.S. officials “smoking gun” intelligence Sunday indicating that the Palestinian Hamas terrorist organization was using the Jala Tower in Gaza, which also housed the Associated Press, Al Jazeera, and other international news outlets.

On Saturday, Israel destroyed the tower, after warning the occupants to allow them to leave. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) tweeted that the building contained “Hamas military intelligence assets” and that the media had been used as “human shields.”

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also highlighted the destruction of the building on his Instagram account.

The Associated Press denied any knowledge that the building had been used by terrorists, and international press freedom groups accused Israel of trying to censor coverage of events in Gaza. The Biden administration also complained about the strike. (Read more from “Report: Israel Showed U.S. Intelligence ‘Smoking Gun’ on Hamas Using Media Building” HERE)

U.S. Ready To Help Israel, Palestinians if They Seek a Ceasefire

By The Epoch Times. The United States told the United Nations Security Council on Sunday it has made clear to Israel, the Palestinians and others that it is ready to offer support “should the parties seek a ceasefire” to end the worsening violence between Israel and Palestinian terrorist groups in Gaza.

“The United States has been working tirelessly through diplomatic channels to try to bring an end to this conflict,” U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Linda Thomas-Greenfield told the 15-member council. “Because we believe Israelis and Palestinians equally have a right to live in safety and security.”

As the U.N. Security Council convened to discuss the worst Israeli-Palestinian violence in years, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel’s campaign in Gaza was continuing at “full force.”

Netanyahu also defended an Israeli air strike on Saturday that destroyed a 12-story building where the Associated Press and the Al Jazeera TV network had offices. He said the structure also housed a terrorist group’s intelligence office and was thus a legitimate target.

U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said the United Nations is “actively engaging all sides toward an immediate ceasefire” and called on them “to allow mediation efforts to intensify and succeed.” (Read more from “U.S. Ready To Help Israel, Palestinians if They Seek a Ceasefire” HERE)

Israel Nears Full Blown War With Hamas; Dems Divide Over Israel on Full Display; U.S. Evacuates Military Personnel From Israel

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Fox News. Escalating violence between Israel and the terrorist group Hamas has cast a spotlight on deepening Democratic divisions over the Jewish state.

The party split played out in full view on social media this week after Hamas launched indiscriminate rocket attacks at Israel, which responded with airstrikes on Hamas targets in Gaza, reportedly killing some civilians. Israel is also dealing with domestic unrest from Arab rioters.

International observers are concerned about the possibility of “full-scale war.” . . .

President Biden and the Democratic old guard have voiced support for Israel’s right to defend itself from Hamas’ rocket attacks.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken noted Thursday that there are “fundamental differences between a terrorist organization, Hamas, that is indiscriminately raining down rockets — in fact, targeting civilians — and Israel’s response defending itself, that is targeting the terrorists.” Biden similarly said that Israel “has a right to defend itself.”

Biden: Israel Didn’t Overreact In Its Gaza Response

By Breitbart. President Joe Biden said Thursday that he does not think Israel has overreacted in its response to massive rocket fire from Gaza.

“One of the things I’ve seen thus far is that there has not been a significant overreaction [by Israel],” he said during a press conference.

“The question is how they get to a point where there is a significant reduction in the attacks, particularly the rocket attacks that are indiscriminately fired into population centers, but I expect that I’ll be having some more discussions,” Biden added.

He also noted that his administration is in frequent contact with Israel, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and others about finding an end to the violence. (Read more from “Biden: Israel Didn’t Overreact In Its Gaza Response” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. State Department spokesman Ned Price told reporters on Tuesday he witnessed photos of Palestinian children killed amid a barrage of rocket fire from Hamas, and a response from the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), and “hard not to look at those pictures and feel a sense of the suffering.”

Price, speaking at his regular press briefing, called for “restraint and de-escalation in an effort to preserve life,” according to the Times of Israel.

“Reports of civilian deaths are something that we regret and would like to come to a stop. We don’t want to see provocations,” Price said. “The provocations we have seen have resulted in a deeply lamentable loss of life.”

“We call for restraint and for calm. Israel has the right to defend itself and to respond to rocket attacks,” Price said. “The Palestinian people also have the right to safety and security, just as Israelis do.” (Read more from “Biden State Department Sympathizes With Palestine After Hamas Attack” HERE)

Donald Trump: Palestinian Rocket Attacks on Israel Provoked by Joe Biden’s ‘Weakness’

By Breitbart. Former President Donald Trump released a statement condemning the Biden administration for showing “weakness and lack of support for Israel” amid Palestinian terror raids.

“When I was in office we were known as Peace Presidency, because Israel’s adversaries know that the United States stood strongly with Israel and there would be swift retribution if Israel was attacked,” the statement reads.

Trump explained, “Under Biden, the world is getting more violent and more unstable because Biden’s weakness and lack of support for Israel is leading to new attacks on our allies.” . . .

Trump concluded by slamming Democrats who “continue to stand by crazed anti-America Rep. Ilhan Omar, and others, who savagely attack Israel while they are under terrorist assault.”
