Hat tip Creeping Sharia and the Clarion Project
After the recent mass shooting in a Pittsburgh synagogue, people like Linda Sarsour and Islamic groups like Celebrate Mercy made a big show of raising money for the victims. Given Sarsour's own past history of being accused of anti-semitism, more than a few eyebrows were raised.
Now it is being reported that a huge chunk of the money actually went to the Islamic Center of Pittsburgh. Creeping Sharia has a report.

Golden West College Post Mortem
He asked the wrong questions
Last March 14, I, along with some friends and colleagues, attended a speaking event at Golden West College in Huntington Beach, California entitled, Islam 101. The speaker was Nicole Bovey from the Muslim Speakers Bureau of Orange County, part of the Islamic Networks Group, an organization based in California that provides speakers to present a positive image of Islam to audiences, mostly schools and colleges. As might be predicted, the presentation was a sugar-coated description of Islam to the point of being downright false. When I and others asked pointed, critical questions, we were admonished by the professors sponsoring the event that such questions were unacceptable. During the break, campus police were called into the hall, and a couple of the questioners were taken outside to be scolded. As the critical questions continued, one of the professors called an abrupt halt to the event a full hour early. I videotaped the entire event, which can be viewed here.
Subsequently, a few us wrote letters to the then-president of the college, Wes Bryan, as well as the chancellor of the Coast Community College District, John Weispfenning complaining about the manner in which we were treated, Chancellor Weispfenning invited three of us to a meeting in his office on May 15, in which he expressed regret for the incident. We then discussed ways in which a follow up event might be scheduled in which a speaker of our choosing might give alternative viewpoints on the subject of Islam. From the start, we suggested first and foremost, Nonie Darwish. Since the president of Golden West was retiring, Chancellor Weispfenning suggested a follow up meeting to include the incoming president of GW, Tim McGrath.
On August 29, we three, along with Chancellor Weispfenning, met with Dr McGrath at the Coast Community College hqs. Dr McGrath also expressed regret at the way in which the March incident was handled and expressed readiness to allow Ms Darwish or another speaker we might suggest to speak at GW. We were asked, "How can we make this right?" Our answer was to bring in Nonie Darwish to provide an alternative point of view. Dr McGrath insisted, however, that our proposed event should include not only Darwish but a Muslim speaker, and that it be moderated. Though we preferred to have Darwish alone to counterbalance the fact that Ms.Bovey had spoken alone without an opposing voice, we compromised and agreed to such an event. We even provided a list of well-known Muslim leaders in Orange County who they might invite to participate on the other side.
On October, 11, 2018, we received the below email from Dr McGrath:
I wanted to get back to the three of you and let you know about the follow-up event that has been scheduled based on our earlier conversation. I’m hoping that all three of you will be able to attend this event. I’m planning on attending the first part of this discussion and I hope that this event provides an opportunity for honest dialogue and a valuable learning experience for our students.
I’ve attached more detail about the event as I felt that you should be aware of the “behind the scenes” planning that we’re putting into the day but the highlights are as follows:
GWC will be hosting a “World Religions Interfaith Dialogue” on Monday 10/22, from 11:00 am – 12:30 pm in Admin 210/GWC Campus.
- Two speakers, one representing Christianity and the other Islam, will participate in a moderated “dialogue,” during a scheduled Intro to Cultural Anthropology class
- Members of the community who attended the Islam 101 panel will be invited to attend
- There will be a 30-minute Q&A following the “dialogue,” where the audience will write questions on note cards and this session will be led by a campus moderator
Thanks for help.

As to why there is no Jewish representative, I have no idea. That is beside the point, however. What GW cooked up was just another interfaith kumbaya event with questions screened by the old tried and true "note card passed to the front for screening" method to ensure no uncomfortable questions are asked. Not only did they discard our request for Nonie Darwish, they didn't even tell us who the invited speakers were.
Below is the text of a letter I sent to McGrath and Weispfenning on October 12.
Subsequent efforts to arrange an event for Ms. Darwish came to naught. At one point, their legal counsel even tried to deny that we had made a request to bring in our own speaker. All Golden West ever agreed to in the end was to provide a room for us to hold an event and the rental fee would be waived. That left unaddressed any security fees/deposits or payment of the speaker's stipend. It was our desire that Golden West itself would host the event and incur the expenses as they did for Ms Bovey's appearance.
Below is the text of a letter I sent to McGrath and Weispfenning on October 12.
Drs McGrath/Weispfenning,
Regarding your scheduled event on October 22, this is nothing like we discussed in our meetings. Not only have you discarded our request to host Nonie Darwish, you have arranged for two speakers whose names are not even disclosed. (Why you have excluded a Jewish representative is also beyond me at a time when Jewish students are being so marginalized on college campuses.)
It is clear that rather than host a speaker who would present a different view of Islam than the sugar-coated and false presentation last March, what you have scheduled is nothing more than a feel good interfaith event. To add insult to injury, the q and a is arranged so as audience members would write questions on cards that would be passed up front and screened. This is nothing more than an old technique to eliminate pointed or critical questions such as we were asking at the March event. This is totally unacceptable to me, and I have no intention of participating and lending legitimacy to such a farce. (Deleted) and (deleted) have indicated that in spite of their own displeasure, they plan to attend. I will not.
After all these months of trying to provide your students with some degree of balance to the indoctrination of last March, we now feel that we have been taken for a 7-month ride. Rest assured that I will share our experience in the widest public forums possible.
Sincerely,
Gary Fouse
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As stated above, I did not attend the October 22 event, but a couple of my colleagues did. Below is a narrative of what they observed. The featured speakers were Shaista Azad of the Muslim Speakers Network and Jason Sexton, a visiting fellow at the UC Berkeley Center for Religious Studies.
(Name deleted) and I attended Monday's event at 11AM-12:30PM. It was held during an Anthro class. Miles Nevin, the Chancellor's asst was there and left immediately at the end. There was also an older man I did not have an opportunity to engage. President McGrath as outside but did not attend.
(Deleted) and I took notes, wrote out a total of 5 questions, none of which were asked. I reached the conclusion that this event was significantly worse than the March 14 event but said nothing. As we debriefed in the parking lot, (deleted) said, "This is worse than the interfaith events we've attended." I strongly agreed.
The basic problem was that Azad was unfettered, free to paint a picture of Islam that was a blatant lie. She spun the typical scenario and tossed in a few new claims, e.g. Muhammad prayed with Christians. She was completely unchallenged. Sexton was soft spoken, rambling, unfocused, confusing. In a word, he was impotent.
One of the questions asked, "Why is Christianity so intolerant while Muslims accept everyone?" All I could do was grind my teeth in my own impotent fury. I was shaking as I exited.
I'm cc'ing (deleted) in case she wants to add. We both have detailed notes.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In other words, after all these months of back and forth, two face to face meetings, and compromises on our part, we have been taken for a ride in the characteristic manner so prevalent in academia.

Pitzer College Faculty Tries to Block Students Who Want to Study in Israel
The movement to boycott Israel-and its academic institutions and scholars has reached outrageous proportions in US academia. Recently, it was the refusal of a University of Michigan professor to write a letter of recommendation for a student who wanted to study in Israel. Now the faculty of Pitzer College (Claremont, California) has voted to reject any effort by their students to study in Israel. In response, the AMCHA Initiative, a California-based organization that exposes and fights campus anti-semitism, has addressed the issue.
https://amchainitiative.org/pitzer-condemn-faculty-attempt-end-study-in-israel-11.29.18pr/
The faculty at Pitzer apparently have no objection to students who want to study in Syria, Iraq, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Iran, North Korea, or other nations that ignore human rights. No, they only object to students who want to study in Israel.
But just imagine an organized group of professors at any institution who decide that they are going to block their students from studying in a particular country because they don't like that country or agree with its policies or politics. This is just another academic embarrassment, not just to Pitzer, but to academia in general.
Of all the countries in the world with horrific human rights policies, these cretins with PhDs single out Israel, the tiny Jewish state that is the only democracy in the Middle East, the only country that affords full freedom of religion to all its citizens, equal rights to it's women, and equal rights to its gays.
Of course it has nothing to do with Jew hatred. Nothing at all.

Swastikas at Columbia
It has happened yet again. A Jewish teacher at Columbia University who teaches Holocaust history has had her office vandalized with swastikas.

We don't know who is responsible. I have added my own comment to the Columbia Spectator story (which apparently was not accepted). Again, without attributing blame, it is ironic that Columbia not only has been identified as a hostile campus for Jews in the past several years, but it is also home to one of the most controversial Middle East Studies programs in the US. It is hardly surprising that something like this would happen at Columbia. The university has a problem whether their administration wants to admit it or not.

The LA Vehicle Attack: LA Times Stresses Mental Illness
Hat tip Chris
We have been reporting on the incident of last Friday night when a Somali man named Mohamed Abdi Mohamed, aka Mohamed Mohamed Abdi, was arrested and charged with trying to run down two orthodox Jews outside a synagogue in Los Angeles. Abdi was reportedly shouting anti-Jewish epithets and had a Koran on his dashboard.
-LA Times
"He's a good boy."
The LA Times, which seems to have been late in reporting on this story, has predictably come out with an article, in which the family of the suspect says he is mentally ill.
https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-synagogue-hate-crime-charges-20181127-story.html
Mentally ill? Possibly, but it strikes me as strange how American and European media want to treat every Muslim who carries out a terrorist attack, hate crime or anti-semitic act is "mentally ill". What is important to remember here is that Islam teaches hatred of Jews-not to mention Christians as well. There are passages in the Koran and the hadith that instruct Muslims to actually kill Jews and Christians. And so we see many Muslims killing Christians and Jews-not all Muslims, surely, but it is happening. It is also undeniable that in many mosques around the world-including in the West- certain imams in their sermons are calling for the deaths of Christians and Jews. The LA Times would prefer not to talk about that, however. It is much easier to dismiss every case of an attack by a Muslim upon non-Muslims as the act of a person who is mentally ill.
I don't buy it. If a KKK member of neo-Nazi attacks someone out of hate, we don't waste our time talking about mental illness. Why should we excuse the acts of violent Muslims who act out of religious hatred by simply saying he or she is mentally ill?

We can finally drop the mask about those thousands of Honduran and other Central American migrants, mostly young men, trying to get into the US. Today, many of them tried to storm the border crossing at Tijuana as they broke through Mexican police trying to restrain them. US agents fired tear gas to drive them back.
San Diego's KOGO radio has reported that border authorities azre advising people who need to cross (legally) to use alternate ports of entry other than the major port of San Ysidro/Tijuana.

We don't know all the details yet, but enough is enough. This should prove once and for all that we need secure borders. President Trump is threatening to close the border, and if that is what it takes, I support that. In addition, the Mexican government needs to stop facilitating this movement through its country to our border.
This week, Tijuana's police chief, Mario Martinez, was widely criticized after he stated that "75% of the migrants had the characteristics of thugs". It appears he was absolutely correct.
Nobody wants to see people get hurt, but those parents who put their children at risk in such a situation deserve no sympathy. It is they who are responsible for any physical or emotional trauma their children may have suffered.

Honduran Migrants Instructed How to Breach US Border

One of the principal leaders of the Honduran migrants who have arrived in Tijuana is shown in this video giving instructions on how to get into the US-legally or illegally- and request asylum.
Note that at one point in the video, he refers to a coming meeting with a" deputy of the European Parliament". Thus far, I have been unable to corroborate any information that someone from the European parliament has met with the migrants. It is possible, he misspoke and was referring to someone from the UN. We know that this group spent five days in Mexico City, where they did meet with human rights representatives from the UN. As to the identity of the principal speaker, I am not sure. He seems to go by a pseudonym and is identified by some sources as having Salvadoran and Honduran citizenship.

Merkel: EU Members States Must Be Prepared to Give Up Sovereignty
This article first appeared in New English Review.
Back in the 1930s and 40s, there was a German chancellor who didn't think much of the sovereignty of other European nations. His name was Adolf Hitler.
Today, there is another German chancellor who says that Europe's nations must be prepared to surrender their sovereignty, not to Berlin, not to Moscow, but to Brussels, the Hqs of the EU.
If Merkel had not already made that clear for the past three years as she has led the way in admitting hundreds of thousands of immigrants, illegal migrants, asylum-seekers and refugees into Europe, she made it clear this week speaking in Berlin.
I don't mean to actually compare Merkel to the genocidal Hitler. Merkel is prepared to give up the sovereignty of her own country as well as the other European nations. She has not brought upon any wars, though many are predicting that her insane policies could lead to something akin to a civil war between Europeans and out of control migrants from the Middle East and Africa.
But there are parallels. In 1939, the world witnessed images of German troops dismantling the border crossings between Germany and Poland.
Today, we witness migrants storming the borders of European nations as border guards stand by helplessly.
In 1945, we saw images of ruined German cities like Berlin flattened by Allied bombings. Today, we see barricades put up around the Christmas display outside the Kaiser Wilhelm Gedaechtnis Church in Berlin to protect it from Muslim terrorists like the one who struck down helpless pedestrians with a truck in 2016.
In 1945, thousands of women in Berlin were raped by marauding Red Army troops. These days, German women are attacked and raped by marauding Middle Eastern migrants, such as occurred outside the Cologne Cathedral on New Year's Eve 2016/17. Others are even less "fortunate". They are murdered senselessly by animals screaming, "Allahu Akhbar".
Rather than learning her lesson, Merkel (and her accomplices in France, Sweden, the Netherlands, Belgium, and other countries), Merkel keeps doubling down. She wants to punish the UK for Brexit. She wants to punish Eastern European countries like Hungary, the Czech Republic and Poland for their refusal to be invaded by millions of people from the Middle East and Africa seeking Lebensraum. Under Merkel's leadership and influence, the EU is acting like the old Soviet Union. In 1956 and 1968, Hungary and Czechoslovakia respectively were invaded by tanks from the Warsaw Pact because they dared to show some independence. Now members of the EU, they are threatened by more subtle means of persuasion, such as economic sanctions if they don't reconsider their immigration policies and accept "their fair share" of Arab and African migrants per the dictates of the EU.
In the 20th century, a madman named Hitler destroyed a great country by bringing about a horrific war that left Germany divided and in rubble. Today, a misguided woman named Merkel is threatening to destroy her country in a different manner.
Back in the 1930s and 40s, there was a German chancellor who didn't think much of the sovereignty of other European nations. His name was Adolf Hitler.
Today, there is another German chancellor who says that Europe's nations must be prepared to surrender their sovereignty, not to Berlin, not to Moscow, but to Brussels, the Hqs of the EU.
If Merkel had not already made that clear for the past three years as she has led the way in admitting hundreds of thousands of immigrants, illegal migrants, asylum-seekers and refugees into Europe, she made it clear this week speaking in Berlin.
I don't mean to actually compare Merkel to the genocidal Hitler. Merkel is prepared to give up the sovereignty of her own country as well as the other European nations. She has not brought upon any wars, though many are predicting that her insane policies could lead to something akin to a civil war between Europeans and out of control migrants from the Middle East and Africa.
But there are parallels. In 1939, the world witnessed images of German troops dismantling the border crossings between Germany and Poland.
Today, we witness migrants storming the borders of European nations as border guards stand by helplessly.
In 1945, we saw images of ruined German cities like Berlin flattened by Allied bombings. Today, we see barricades put up around the Christmas display outside the Kaiser Wilhelm Gedaechtnis Church in Berlin to protect it from Muslim terrorists like the one who struck down helpless pedestrians with a truck in 2016.
In 1945, thousands of women in Berlin were raped by marauding Red Army troops. These days, German women are attacked and raped by marauding Middle Eastern migrants, such as occurred outside the Cologne Cathedral on New Year's Eve 2016/17. Others are even less "fortunate". They are murdered senselessly by animals screaming, "Allahu Akhbar".
Rather than learning her lesson, Merkel (and her accomplices in France, Sweden, the Netherlands, Belgium, and other countries), Merkel keeps doubling down. She wants to punish the UK for Brexit. She wants to punish Eastern European countries like Hungary, the Czech Republic and Poland for their refusal to be invaded by millions of people from the Middle East and Africa seeking Lebensraum. Under Merkel's leadership and influence, the EU is acting like the old Soviet Union. In 1956 and 1968, Hungary and Czechoslovakia respectively were invaded by tanks from the Warsaw Pact because they dared to show some independence. Now members of the EU, they are threatened by more subtle means of persuasion, such as economic sanctions if they don't reconsider their immigration policies and accept "their fair share" of Arab and African migrants per the dictates of the EU.

What the OIC Wants
Hat tip Vlad Tepes and Ava Lon for translation
The Organization for Islamic Cooperation (OIC) is the largest voting bloc in the UN. Consisting of 57 Islamic countries, it has for years now been pushing for the UN to pass a resolution that all member nations should pass legislation that would criminalize criticism of Islam. Now we have a document that outlines the OIC plan to replace Western civilization with an Islamic one.

Hyatt and Real Hate Groups
Hat tip Middle East Forum
Hyatt Hotels has announced that they will not host hate groups. They have identified Act for America as a hate group they will not allow past their threshold. In reality, Act is not a hate group. They merely tell the truth about radical and extremist Islam. Having spoken before a few Act chapters, I am well acquainted with their disclaimer that they do not hate Muslims as people.
But there is a hate group that Hyatt is, in fact, hosting: That would be American Muslims for Palestine (AMP). This month, the Hyatt Regency O'Hare in Chicago will be (again) hosting the annual convention of AMP. Shame on them.
https://www.meforum.org/islamist-watch/articles/2018/hyatt-helps-hate?fbclid=IwAR0rsjbMcWRp7FPToRQsn1jmDopTTSSKM8sdZm2bVAP3XSvSp2p3TfqmftE
AMP is a financial arm of the brown shirt Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP),a despicable organization that delights in disrupting pro-Israel events on over 150 college campuses across America. Both organizations were co-founded by UC Berkeley professor Hatem Bazian, who washed up on our shores about 20 years ago as a college student from the West Bank. We've been unable to get rid of him ever since.
In addition, Taher Herzallah, who is mentioned in the article, was one of the so-called Irvine 11, a group of UC Irvine and UC Riverside Muslim Student Union members who disrupted the speech of Israeli ambassador Michael Oren at UC Irvine in 2010. I was there, and I can tell you, it was downright ugly. Herzallah and the others were successfully prosecuted and convicted by the Orange County DA's Office. So he now works for Bazian.
I don't know about you, but I will not be staying at any Hyatt hotels anytime soon.

Anti-Caravan Protest in Tijuana
Hat tip Gates of Vienna and Vlad Tepes for sub-titling. Translation by Fousesquawk.
This week, Mexicans in Tijuana took to the streets to protest the invasion of Central Americans who have flooded into their border town on their way to the US. The above interview is an excerpt from a 97-minute news broadcast by Frontera News. There are many such interviews, but we have chosen one to sub-title. The bottom line is that many residents of Tijuana see right through this caravan and feel that they should return to their home countries.
For those of you who know Spanish, here is the complete video from Frontera News.

Statement of Canadian Hillels Condemning BDS Resolution by Canadian Confederation of Students
Hat tip Vlad Tepes
In Canada, they have something called the Canadian Confederation of (Stupid) Students. Being stupid. they have issued a resolution endorsing the Boycott, Divest and Sanctions movement (BDS) against Israel. What that tells me is that Kool Aid is a big seller in Canada as well as they US.
Below is a statement by Canadian Hillel chapters condemning the move.
https://cija.ca/pr_cfs_bds_20181119/
Maybe the Canadian Confederation of Stupid Students should boycott Kool Aid.

Mexicans in Tijuana Say "No" to Central American Migrants
Hat tip Vlad Tepes
The open borders crowde might want to go interview the folks in Tijuana about that Central American caravan headed to the US border. As thousands of migrants start pouring into the border town of Tijuana, hundreds of Mexicans protested. They don't want them and say they should return home.
Together with Vlad Tepes and Gates of Vienna, we are preparing some Spanish video with sub-titles on the Tijuana protests. You will be surprised at what the local residents are saying about the migrants and Donald Trump. Stand by.

Italy: Another Somali Success Story
It's called Cultural Enrichment
(Hat tip Gates of Vienna and Vlad Tepes)
A small coastal town in Italy has learned the hard way what so many other communities have learned about the cultural enrichment offered by Somali migrants. In the town of Ortona, a 20-year-old Somali man, illegally in the country but being taken care of at public expense anyway, stripped naked in public and attacked two elderly women, raping one. Apparently in between the two attacks, he laid out on the beach pleasuring himself while suddenly culturally-enriched Italians called the cops. Translation by Fousesquawk.

Dangerous Swimming Pools in the Netherlands
Earlier this month, a group of young males (who had already been banned from a public swimming pool in the Dutch town of Tilburg, began physically harassing young girls in the pool during a halloween party. Though the news report does not report it, my source in the Netherlands, who passed this on to me, informs me that these were Moroccan youths who were involved. Translation by Fousesquawk.

Halloween party in pool: possibly four girls assaulted
Tilburg's spook party falls into the water
TILBURG - A Halloween party in the Tilburg recreational pool Stappegoor was ended early Saturday night, because the situation was threatening and unsafe.
:quality(50)/cdn-kiosk-api.telegraaf.nl/d5c2ee88-e129-11e8-9d15-3905b089c602.jpg)
The Tilburg swimming pool was closed early Saturday night.
According to Omroep (Broadcast) Brabant, groups of young people were physically and verbally annoying and young girls were surrounded and harassed by older boys. Witnesses speak of assault in four cases. The girls who were attacked were removed out of the water. Stappegoor (pool) is used by the local public. Whether or not there was actually a sexual assault has to be sorted out according to the municipality.
Tilburg (below)
Because the atmosphere became increasingly grimmer, the party had to be ended prematurely. "Social safety and swimming safety could no longer be guaranteed," says a municipal spokesman for Omroep Brabant. Also, the evacuation of the pool did not go without a struggle. Among other things, stones were thrown.

Linda Sarsour Shows Her Anti-Semitism-Again
Linda Sarsour, the trash-talking Muslim woman out of Brooklyn, is once again polishing up her anti-semitism in public. This time she is accusing Jews who oppose another anti-semite, newly-elected Democrat congresswoman, Ilhan Omar, of having a dual loyalty to Israel.
https://www.jta.org/2018/11/18/news-opinion/linda-sarsour-fire-criticizing-american-jews-dual-loyalty-israel
The accusation of American Jews having a dual loyalty to Israel is a canard. Being active in this area, I can tell you that every American Jew I know who defends Israel is a proud American first. The only ones I have met whose loyalty to America I would question are those Jews, who, for some twisted reason, oppose Israel and stand with those forces who would destroy the Jewish state. They are the ones who condemn Israel in one breath and condemn America in the next breath.
Do not be fooled because Sarsour, being the opportunist that she is, has gone out and raised money after the desecration of a Jewish cemetery near St Louis and after the recent Pittsburgh massacre. She is just as cynical and scheming as CAIR in her masquerading behind crocodile tears. Her type of "support" after a Jewish tragedy should be rejected as crass opportunism.

Fake News in Canada
Hat tip Vlad Tepes
On Wednesday of this week, a performance of the Jewish play, "Fiddler on the Roof" was interrupted by a man yelling "Heil Hitler, heil Trump". Many in the media in both the US and Canada incorrectly reported that the man in question was a Trump supporter. Vlad Tepes, a Canadian-based blog reports on how the Canadian news outlet, Global News, misreported the incident.
Anything but.
https://vladtepesblog.com/2018/11/17/oann-busts-media-for-lying-about-motives-of-antisemitic-actions-to-slander-president-trump/
This points out just how bad the media has become on both sides of the border. It was also a Trump hater who carried out the mass murder in the Pittsburgh synagoge. Yet, President Trump got blamed for the "atmosphere of hate" that led to the murders. The mayor of Pittsburgh and certain Jewish and Christian leaders didn't want him to come to Pittsburgh to express his solidarity with the Jewish community.
Not only is this grossly unfair to Trump; it is unfair to the public, which depends on our media to get it right. Yes, the quote from the guy in Baltimore could be interpreted in more than one way. But the man himself set the record straight. He is no Trump supporter.
This is how public opinion gets formed. This is how so many people walk around totally uninformed and misinformed.

Criticism of French President
Hat tip Gates of Vienna and Vlad Tepes
During the recent Armistice Day celebration in France, which was attended by President Trump, French president Emmanuel Macron went out of his way to embarrass himself. He made statements to the effect that France should honor Philippe Petain (who led the French military in World War One but presided over occupied France during the Second World War), talked of forming a European army to defend the continent from the US, and attacked the government of Italy, specifically Interior Minister Matteo Salvini for his immigration policies.
In response, Macron was harshly criticized by another French politician, Nicolas Dupont-Aignan of the National Assembly.

Berkeley Mayor Opposes Hatem Bazian: Bazian Cries Foul
Hat tip Pro-Israel Bay Bloggers
In a rare display of decency coming out of Berkeley, the mayor, Jesse Arreguin, has expressed his opposition to city council member Cheryl Davila's choice of UC Berkeley professor Hatem Bazian to serve as her stand-in in case of some natural calamity that would prevent her from serving. It's an odd custom they have in Berkeley, but then again, Berkeley is a city of odd customs.
Mayor Arreguin apparently can't do more than voice his opposition, but that didn't stop crybaby Bazian from sending out a call for help.
http://proisraelbaybloggers.blogspot.com/2018/11/berkeleys-mayor-jesse-arreguin-opposed.html
Of course, to Bazian and his ilk, just speaking in opposition to his agenda constitutes some sort of human rights violation.
In case anyone is interested, Richard Silverstein, whose name appears above, is a misfit activist living in Seattle who hates Israel almost as much as Bazian does. he has a blog, which shall remain unnamed, which posts some of the wildest conspiracy theories you will ever hear about Israel. (He has banned me.) Hardly surprising to see Bazian and Silverstein link arms. As they say, there's a lid for every pot.
