Unlike social media giants who support these terrorists and silence those of us who oppose their bloodshed, bigotry and slaughter, Zoom took appropriate action.
Zoom CANCELS Terrorist
By: JNS News Service, September 23, 2020:
The video-conferencing platform Zoom has canceled a conversation on its platform hosted by San Francisco State University’s Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Studies (AMED) featuring a documented Palestinian terrorist following complaints from the Lawfare Project on Tuesday.
Story continues below advertisementThe Sept. 23 event, “Whose Narratives? Gender, Justice, & Resistance: A conversation with Leila Khaled,” was scheduled to take place via Zoom. It was to be hosted by SFSU professors Rabab Abdulhadi, who has a history of anti-Israel activism, and Tomomi Kinukawa.
Khaled played a critical role in two airplane hijackings as a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), a U.S.-designated terrorist organization. The Israeli Shin Bet considers Khaled as part of the Jordanian command of the PFLP.
The Lawfare Project initially sent a letter to Zoom last week warning that by knowingly permitting Khaled to use its platform to communicate directly to U.S. college students…..
Zoom could violate federal law that makes it illegal to provide material support or resources to a foreign terrorist organization.
Following what the Lawfare Project called an “intensive dialogue” with Zoom officials over the past two days, Zoom’s deputy general counsel and chief compliance and ethics officer, Lynn Haaland, issued the following statement: “Zoom is committed to supporting the open exchange of ideas and conversations, subject to certain limitations contained in our Terms of Service, including those related to user compliance with applicable U.S. export control, sanctions, and anti-terrorism laws. In light of the speaker’s reported affiliation or membership in a U.S. designated foreign terrorist organization, and SFSU’s inability to confirm otherwise, we determined the meeting is in violation of Zoom’s Terms of Service and told SFSU they may not use Zoom for this particular event.”
Khaled was one of the hijackers on TWA Flight 840 from Rome to Tel Aviv in 1969 and on El Al Flight 219 in 1970 from Amsterdam to New York City. She was released in both cases.
In 2017, she was barred entry to Italy.
Nearly 90 Jewish and pro-Israel groups expressed outrage and concern about the event to SFSU president Lynn Mahoney, who repeatedly defended the event by invoking freedom of expression.
JNS has reached out to AMED about the platform cancellation and if it still plans to hold the event elsewhere.

Rule # 96-1/2: If that someone threatens to kill you and you believe them, BE PREPARED BY HAVING A LOADED HANDGUN FOR SELF-DEFENSE. ALWAYS, ALWAYS DOUBLE-TAP IF IT’S A .22 AND A SINGLE SHOT TO THE HEAD, IF IT’S A .45

The Trump Effect strikes again. Friends of Trump are not friends of terrorists.
“Coupled with a slump in other foreign funding, this has resulted in PA’s coffers shrinking by some 70%, the report said. While the global COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic may explain a hefty chunk of the decline, the New Arab reports that PA officials suspect this recent decline could be linked with the recent normalization accords between Israel and two Arab Gulf states.”

Yeah, NOT with this jackass in power. President Aoun is a Hezbollah stooge, and Trump’s admin won’t let Lebanon harbor terrorists in its government anymore. So job one is to dump Aoun.

Trump slashed most Pali funding, and Lebanon 100%. That’s why they are broke and getting broker.

As to Zoom … even a broken clock is right twice day …
… to be fair, Zoom cannot hold its own. Even they wanted to do the right thing in every case, Google could squash them like a bug.
The real heroes of this story are the attorneys of the Lawfare Project. God bless ’em for doing the right thing on this.
*** Everyone here at Geller have an excellent week!

” in my sity‘? FIRST, TLAIB NEEDS TO LEARN ENGLISH OR JUST SHUT UP.
IF YOU ARE A PALESTINIAN AND YOU WANT TO LIVE A LONG, HEALTHY, AND PROSPEROUS LIFE, AND YOU LIVE IN AMERICA, THEN MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS AND SUPPORT OUR U.S. CONSTITUTION, THE VERY DOCUMENT THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO ALL THAT. If you do not, you will be found out, so keep your mouth shut and live for another day. And, when that another day comes, STAND YOUR GROUND FOR AMERICA AND HER LIBERTIES UNDER THE CONSTITUTION, OR LEAVE AMERICA.
TLAIB, AOC, AND OMAR ARE TRAITORS TO THE VERY OATH THEY TOOK TO SUPPORT OUT U.S. CONSTITUTION. THEY NEED TO EITHER LEAVE AMERICA OR GET OUT OF CONGRESS.
Americans do NOT want TRAITORS among us.

It’s amazing how these muslum vermin don’t mind the fact the majority of their muslum states are deliberately judenrein — incl. the Gaza Sh!te. I’d imagine they brayed like donkeys when they heard what happened to the last 5 or 6 dozen Jews in Yemen.

If you are a Muslim and claim you are a moderate, YOU ARE A LIAR because their QURAN/SHARIA LAW is their Constitution, which means they now become an enemy of the Muslim people and other FREEDOM-LOVING peoples.
THERE SHOULD BE NO MUSLIMS IN AMERICA UNLESS THEY DENOUNCE AND RENOUNCE THEIR QURAN/HADITHS, but then they are allowed to LIE as dictated from their own Quran.
IF YOU STAND FOR NOTHING, YOU WILL FALL FOR ANYTHING.
Muslims, LIKE Communists and our Constitution are like oil and water.
THEY NEVER MIX WELL AND ALWAYS END UP IN BATTLES/WAR.
THIS IS WHY WE HAVE THE 2ND AMENDMENT.

No civilized nation should ever admit Muslims. Not even as visitors. They should always be regarded like a very infectious disease.

The difference between “moderate” and “radical” muslums may come down to nothing more than a difference in tactics to achieve the same end game: islamic hegemony.

Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Studies
Would that be the study of diasporas CAUSED by the f’ing muslums?
As in:
1. Cyprus
2. Bangladesh
3. Iran (Iran was at one point greater than 50% Zoroastrian, now they comprise less than 1% of the population of Iran (spit)
4. Iraq (there used to be Jews living in Iraq, back before the Farhud pogrom)
5. Gaza Strip (100% judenrein)
6. Egypt (used to be home to a large, prosperous Jewish population, not anymore)
7. Pakistain (https://hindugenocide.com/islamic-jihad/4million-hindus-persecuted-west-pakistan-partition-plight-hindus-remained/)
8. Kashmir (similar story to greater Pakistain)
9. Syrian Christians
10. Iraqi Christians
11. etc. etc. etc.

Victory at last ! Hallelujah! This is what is needed worldwide but especially now and this shows there is a way to threaten the likes of Facebook Twitter and the rest that by allowing such content is against the law as it’s anti Semitic and a hate crime ! I don’t know why these platforms have gotten away with allowing even slaves to be sold as all jihadi material and anti Semitic material should be banned, it’s ownership heavily fined and prosecuted for pro Islamic propaganda that spread like wildfire causing so many to join and/or support isis in the first place !

Go Zoom!
I know it’s not perfect. There are issues, big issues if what I read and hear are correct, but it’s been a blessing in my life in this covid-time. And I believe it will continue to be in the future.

I bet the school would have reacted differently if the speaker was against BLM.. Thank you Zoom and YouTube for not giving hate a platform.
