I stand with Bibi and Israel. He is absolutely correct. Of course we all know that Joe has zero interest in calming things down - he needs the votes and in the long run if things continue to escalate he could even decide to declare martial law -- right around election time.

Israel’s Netanyahu says ‘antisemitic mobs’ have taken over America’s ‘leading universities’

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a video message Wednesday saying "what’s happening in America’s college campuses is horrific."

"Antisemitic mobs have taken over leading universities. They call for the annihilation of Israel. They attack Jewish students. They attack Jewish faculty," he said. "This is reminiscent of what happened in German universities in the 1930s. It’s unconscionable. It has to be stopped. It has to be condemned and condemned unequivocally. But that’s not what happened. The response of several university presidents was shameful."

Netanyahu spoke as American college students are continuing to hold anti-Israel demonstrations Wednesday around the nation.

"Now, fortunately, state, local, federal officials, many of them have responded differently but there has to be more. More has to be done. It has to be done not only because they attack Israel, that’s bad enough, not only because they want to kill Jews wherever they are, that’s bad enough, it’s also when you listen to them, it’s also because they say not only, "Death to Israel. Death to the Jews," but "death to America,’" Netanyahu said. "And this tells us that there is an antisemitic surge here that has terrible consequences.  ..................

Those that don't read or understand history are doomed to repeat it. BiBi gets it.

On some university campuses this has been building up for decades. Feckless, possibly anti-Semitic, administrators have been declining to protect attacked Jewish students or to punish their attackers for years and in some places, for decades.

Thanks for that information -- I don't have any kids in college anymore so I wasn't aware that this has been escalating.
