Landmark at University of Tennessee-Knoxville Vandalized With Antisemitic Graffiti: ‘Jews did 9-11’

The pro-Palestinian Left has made American university campuses unsafe for Jews. The Democrat Party refuses to take any action against this open racism and incitement, out of fear of offending their anti-Semitic constituents. #Jexodus

Landmark at University of Tennessee-Knoxville Vandalized With Antisemitic Graffiti. Google: Dancing Israelis

Story continues below advertisement

By Benjamin Kerstein, Algemeiner, September 9, 2019:

A landmark at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville was vandalized with antisemitic graffiti on Wednesday night.

According to Knox News, the words, “Jews did 9-11,” and, “Google: Dancing Israelis,” were found scrawled on “The Rock” — a large stone on the university campus that has become an informal designated area for graffiti and often political messages.

The graffiti refers to the conspiracy theory that Jews and/or Israel were the real culprits behind the September 11, 2001 Al Qaeda terrorist attacks. “Dancing Israelis” refers to a connected conspiracy theory that claims a group of Israelis were caught celebrating the attack.

University Chancellor Donde Plowman condemned the graffiti, saying, “Last night, someone covered that message of love with an antisemitic hate message. We condemn that hate aimed toward members of our Jewish community, and we understand that words are not enough.”

“We want to work together to create a movement around what we want to be,” the chancellor added. “I will start by meeting with members of our Jewish student community this morning. We will expand the conversation to all [students] so we can work together on an action plan and will share more in the coming days.”

This is not the first time “The Rock” has been defaced with antisemitic graffiti. The Algemeiner reported in November 2018 that the stone had been covered with swastikas, and other white supremacist and neo-Nazi symbols.

The words “Kill Jews,” “Hail rape,” “White man’s land,” and, “Free Palestine,” were also written on “The Rock.”

That vandalism took place shortly after Jewish students held a memorial service for the victims of the massacre at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh.

I wonder how many Muslims attend the university or live in the area. The media will not highlight the vandalism.
Ignorant people are easier to manipulate. Those that do speak out are often viewed as Islamaphobic etc.. It’s a tough battle getting people to see what is really going on out there. Still others that may know, may think well, I’m not Jewish blah, blah, blah… but what they don’t realize is that at some point, they will be next. Hitler started out with the Jews and then it became anyone that didn’t agree with him was sent to a camp or executed.

It could be one of BDS Jews too. Don’t discount that possibility.

Hitler first experimented in long term care facilities with the insane and crippled. No one except those in the hospitals who were involved knew. Method of extermination was experimental gas chambers, usually a room in the basement converted for this purpose. Families were told that their relative passes away peacefully. Those without family were simply incinerated. This was the test run.

Then Hitler, now with a disposal system, went after the Jews, Gypsies, homosexuals, Communists (strange since he was a socialist, aka a NAZI), any dissenter, and then onto Catholic priests or group that fell out of grace. One group at a time, slowly discrediting them one at a time so no one would care.

I’m not saying that the results would be the same, but this discrediting one group after another seems to be the new Democrat method of going after anyone “not of the body”. They are talking about disenfranchising, re-education camps, prison, disqualification, firings, banishments, social shunning, forbidden speech, and right speech.

Thankfully half the population is too big a number to go after, especially when armed. But plans are out there regarding taking away weapons and civil rights. It begins small, but once you remove and blacklist one group after another, it becomes manageable.

Harris is just waiting out Biden and his executive orders before she takes over and really shows you her mace gloved hand.

How can it be that anti-semitic graffiti is still news when in fact events like this occur more than once a day, every day, in America.
Reality check: In 2018 ADL recorded 1,879 anti-Semitic incidents in the United States, the third-highest number of incidents since the ADL began its tracking. As with all forms of crime, this tally is far lower than the actual number. The ADL-reported number does not include many crimes against individuals that are not labeled as anti-semitic. Regardless of the actual number, the problem is clearly not shrinking.
In the 70s, growing up in one of the largest jewish communities in NYC, I recall this was a commonplace event. The son of one our neighbors decided to paint “F____Y__Jews” on our apartment windows one day. That was my first personal encounter as child with irrational hatred. Fifty years have passed since my dad scraped the evil off our windows and nothing has changed.
Anti-semitism is still deeply entrenched in our culture and has been for a long time. The background of the perpetrators may change over time but the same irrational hate is passed on from generation to generation.
Today’s highly cultured American (and European Jews) have convinced themselves that things were much worse when their parents and grand parents were growing up but if that’s true why do most of these Jews still live clustered in affluent ghettos far removed from the people they fear most. Appears the graffiti is working.

I STATE RESPECTFULLY THAT TODAY THINGS ARE MUCH WORSE THAN IN THE 1970’S BECAUSE NOW YOU HAVE A GROUP MOVING INTO THE WEST IN GENERAL IN GREAT NUMBERS WHICH HAS ANTI-SEMITIC ETHOS WRITTEN IN THEIR RELIGIOUS CREED BACKED BY NATION-STATES THAT ENFORCE THE CREED THAT HAS ABUNDANT WEALTH AND EDUCATIONAL ACCESS! TODAYS MUSLIMS ARE LIKE THE GERMAN AMERICAN BUND OF THE 1930S AND TODAY’S TIMES COULD BE COMPARABLE TO THEN EXCEPT THE NEWS MEDIA OF THE TIME DIDN’T GIVE NAZI GERMANY SYMPATHIZERS ANY BREAKS LIKE THE SUPPOSEDLY INDEPENDENT NEWS MEDIA ASSOCIATIONS ARE DOING NOW TO THE MUSLIMS WHICH ARE EXPOSED HERE! THAT IS THE CRITICAL DIFFERENCE! INDEPENDENT MEDIA OUTLETS TOOK A STAND THEN AND INFORMED FOLKS AS MUCH AS THEY COULD ALTHOUGH SAD TO SAY THEY DIDN’T REALLY INVESTIGATE AND EXPOSE WHAT WAS GOING ON TO EUROPE’S JEWS ENOUGH ARGUABLY DUE TO THE TECHNOLOGY OF THE TIME!

The Alt Left and the Alt Right are both partners in wacko conspiracy theories, and united in their hatred of Jews.

ISRAELIS & JEWS MOURN THE DEAD KILLED ON 9/11 WHILE THE MUSLIMS’ PROPHET, MOHAMMAD SAID “SMITE THEM AT THEIR NECKS” & “MUSLIM! BEHIND THIS STONE IS A JEW, KILL HIM!” WHICH GROUP DOES THE GRAFFITI BEHIND THE ROCK RESONATE WITH? THE GOOD MUSLIMS DO WHAT THEIR FOUNDER TOLD THEM TO!
