Barry Shaw – JEWISH LIVES MATTER!
Paul Kessler was the 69-year-old Jew who was smashed on the head by a pro-Palestinian with a megaphone and died of his injuries.
Instead of calling it an anti-Semitic hate crime, the police called it homicide.
In America, the police and the current establishment are suffering from Islamophobia. Not hatred of Muslims, but fear of Muslims.
They are afraid of the rising power that they hold, the chokehold they have over proper decisions, and the Jew is the victim as personified by Paul Kessler.
Paul Kessler should be the Jewish George Floyd.
If Jews don’t act now, if Jews don’t powerfully shout out now, things are going to get much worse for them in America, and elsewhere.
Paul Kessler should be the symbol of a new movement –
JEWISH LIVES MATTER copied on the successful marketing campaign of BLM, except we do it powerfully, but peacefully.
I was going to say that we have justice on our side, but actually we don’t.
We don’t have a voice because we don’t have the numbers to sway cynical politicians.
We have to take to the streets, the town halls, and Congress to shout and keep shouting until they heed our voice because, if we don’t, you could be the next Paul Kessler.
So that is why we must find the leaders to put together a national and global movement of JEWISH LIVES MATTER led by the image of Paul Kessler.
Who is going to take up the cause? Anyone? Or are you going to remain the meek and silent Jew whose fate is sealed in a long history of pogroms and Holocausts?
When the Jew haters came to kill us, Israel acted. Strongly, affirmatively, decisively, against all criticism.
Now, it’s your turn.
JEWISH LIVES MATTER!
