The Anti-Defamation League is a
joke.
Once a respected civil rights
organization dedicated to fighting extremism and hate against Jews, the ADL
lies in bed with violent antifa extremists and perpetuates hate against
political opponents. The "progressive" group is now a brazenly
partisan character assassination outfit headed by Jonathan Greenblatt, a
Clinton/Obama operative and former George Soros-funded operative, whose
contempt for President Donald Trump trumps all.
The ADL also partners with the
corporate cheap labor lobby funded by Trump-hating billionaire Republican
Charles Koch to stifle patriotic critics of open borders. In June, the Charles
Koch Institute joined left-wing Silicon Valley companies and ADL's speech
police to exploit the riots in Charlottesville, Virginia, as a means of
demonizing all Trump supporters and nationalist activists while giving cover to
antifa online.
In 2017, left-wing antifa protesters
had provoked and engaged in violent encounters at the Unite the Right rally. A
man drove his car into a crowd there, killing one woman. New York Times
reporter Sheryl Gay Stolberg tweeted on-scene that she "saw club-wielding
'antifa' beating white nationalists being led out of the park" (a candid
observation that she later deleted after blowback from her narrative-enforcing
colleagues). Live video footage showed left-wing protesters hurling objects at
the white nationalists.
An independent review of the clashes
by Timothy J. Heaphy of the Virginia law firm Hunton & Williams,
commissioned by the Charlottesville city government, found that the
Charlottesville police and Virginia State Patrol "failed to intervene,"
"did not respond to requests for assistance," were
"insufficiently equipped to respond to mass unrest," "failed to
protect the points of egress, instead pushing the conflicting groups directly
into each other," and "failed to 'stand up' to protect human
life." Police supervisors told Heaphy they were ordered out of their
protection zones," one CPD lieutenant reported. "We were sitting
there with our thumbs up our asses." Another described how "we were
prevented from doing police work" and a third officer stated plainly that
"we failed this community."
No matter. Charlottesville fueled
efforts by the ADL, the Charles Koch Institute, the Center for American
Progress, National Immigration Forum and Hope Not Hate (all Soros-funded
satellites, as I report in my new book, "Open Borders, Inc.") to
conduct an internet witch hunt against conservatives and Trump supporters under
the guise of eradicating "hate" and "extremism."
That's the backdrop you need to know
for the ADL's unveiling this week of a compendium of coded gestures it deems
"hate symbols." The database includes the "OK" hand sign
(initially a joke on the 4Chan internet troll forum), bowl haircuts (because
crazed church shooter Dylan Roof had one, all white men with bad hairdos like
his must be massacre-minded white supremacists), and the numbers 1-11, 100%,
9%, 12, 13, 14, 18, 28, 38, 43, 83, 88, 311, 318, 511 and 737 (because
somewhere someone purportedly associated with something remotely racist had
some tattoo or slogan or hand sign using the Dastardly Digits of Evil).
It's all beyond parody, but the most
astonishing entries in the ADL's kooky cookbook of code symbols are anti-antifa
emblems. Drawing a slash mark through the antifa anarchists' red and black flag
is now tantamount to endorsing white nationalism. Opposing left-wing violence
by a menacing network of black-masked bullies that has doxxed ICE agents,
harassed elderly citizens and bloodied independent journalists, is inciting
violence. Resisting defamation of immigration enforcement patriots standing up
to smears by Abolish ICE and antifa is defamation.
Last weekend, I helped organize a
Stand With ICE rally in Tacoma, Washington, at the GEO Group detention facility
targeted by antifa firebomber Willem Van Spronsen. There, a brave Jewish
immigrant from Germany, Jan Moritz held my hand and rallied the crowd of Old
Glory flag-wavers against the open borders mob invoking the Nazi card to
silence us:
"I escaped from tyranny and
communism in East Germany as a small child. I was helped by a grandfather who
escaped from tyranny and Nazi concentration camp in Germany. And these people
call me a Nazi because I'm American?!"
When the violence-enabling, smear
merchants of the ADL and its collaborators are in charge of weaponizing
"hate" and "defamation" to destroy dissent, who will step
up to de-platform them?
