Pro-Israel Jewish billionaires caught secretly plotting to crackdown student protests
News ArticleHere we go with the victim cards again and claiming Anti-semiticsm as if it belongs to them and only them.
"How dare you say we're controlling stuff that we're controlling!"
Jesus christ. Did you see the one about the uk lord with ties to the arms industry doing the same shit
In a different world, calling the blue sky blue could be "antisemitic".

Well antisemitism as a term does only apply to Jews. The term was coined specifically to refer to Jews and that’s how it has been historically applied. It’s not about Semitic peoples. It’s a term applied specifically to Jews.
Which is funny because arabs are literal semites. So coining it for only Jews is actually really odd to begin with
The term was coined by a German journalist and socialist politician named Wilhelm Marr in 1879. He founded the Antisemites League and published a book called Victory of Jewry over Germandom. Not long after we also see the rise of the German Social Antisemitic Party and the Antisemitic People's Party. These never had huge electoral success, but the term “antisemite” as “anti-Jew” stuck.
I mean I think this whole thing has made it pretty clear that a majority of Jew haters also hate Arabs. They seem to just go by how dark peoples skin is in order of hate. So it's not wrong to use it for actual Semites.
I love that the justification for anti-Semite meaning only Jews is that an actual Nazi said it so thats the definition we are going with. Perhaps we shouldn't, particularly those who are the targets of Nazis, let actual Nazis decide what the words in our language mean.
Gays took back the pink tringle from the Nazis but Zionists want to keep letting the Nazis have power over words.
You probably also think all lives matter is a non offensive phrase because all lives matter as well right. Or is there a history behind the phrase that gives it an alternative meaning?
im cringing at my self from 7th grade now
Is that because there weren't many arabs in Germany at the time?
The greatest irony in all of this is that Palestinians are semitic.
You mean the Israeli Secret Intelligence Service? Maybe Oh crap. That spells isis!
This is the same picture.
Israel calls itself the jewish state. Take a wild guess what ISIS actually stands for?
...emmm...I kinda just told you.
It stands for "Islamic State of Iraq and Syria". ie. Islamic State. Zionists are the Jewish State. Both are terrorists.
Why did ISIS apologize the one time they attacked Israel? Why do they only seem to attack Iran and Russia and enemies of the west?

Thanks for providing proof of what I said.
“The chat’s participants include Kind snack company founder Daniel Lubetzky, hedge fund manager Daniel Loeb, billionaire Len Blavatnik, real estate investor Joseph Sitt, former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz, Dell founder and CEO Michael Dell, hedge fund manager Bill Ackman and Joshua Kushner, founder of Thrive Capital and brother to Jared Kushner, former President Donald Trump’s son-in-law.”
All wonderful people that contribute so much to society. Especially the hedge fund managers and real estate investors.
We need more people like these. Then we can have that utopia we dream of.
These people are fueling antisemitism with their actions. People that might have been sympathetic could nudge them in a negative direction. How about not being arrogant and treating people with dignity, being fair, and respecting them?
That's exactly what zionism does, it fuels antisemitism. Zionism is a curse on Judaism. A parasite of an ideology that feeds off of them.
Ah yes. Cuz jews were treated so well before zionism
I don't think anyone is denying that jews have been treated horribly, extending back into antiquity. And unfairly so, obviously. Bigotry is never ok. But zionism as a response, and the tenets thereof as it's practiced today, especially by netanyahu and his followers, is not the way. Thanks to the Israeli right wing, it's morphed into its own sort of bigotry, and doesn't just mean "jews have a right to exist in israel" as it originally did. It's now clearly a extremist nationalist ideology that's swung towards the far right, in ways resembling christian nationalism in its bigotry, intolerance, and endorsement of violence. Just yet more proof that conservative/right wing ideology is a blight wherever and whenever it exists.
Zionism as a solution to the problem of jewish mistreatment is "If you can't beat them, join them".
The idea of a bunch of rich men in suits, sitting around a dimly lit table while they plot their world control, use to be the idea of cartoons, you were seen as nuts to suggest it.
Now they don’t even bother with the spooky table meetings, they’re whatsapping world control
Not doing any favors to dispel the puppet master conspiracies either
Boycott all these companies
Sadly, the only time boycotting seems to work is when it is against liberal policies and agendas.
These are all scumbags in real life too, real low life people, and if they’re supporting Israel it says all you need to know
Damn, they're really just going completely mask-off lmao

Wouldn't it be one of these guys who is the mole who exposed all this?
Billionaires are human parasites and should not exist.
sO yOuR’e sAyiNg jEwS aRe pArAsiTes?!?! /s
Indeed billionaires of any ethnicity should be taxed out of existence
So are Zionists it's like a double whammy
Now I understand why so many Western governments are in Netanyahu's pocket.
I mean people in power positions been pretty open about their wanting to crackdown on these protests. I’m not sure this is “secret”. More like it wasn’t a public conversation
And when confronted with this, the Mayor’s office says, “oh don’t be so antisemitic!”
clear case of Outside agitators on Zionist side, none on students' side.
every accusations Zionists spout is their admission, pure projection.
“If we fully embody anti-Semitic tropes with our actions then they can’t criticize us or else they’ll look like anti-semites!”
We are reaching unheard of levels of cynical brain rot
“ThIs aRtIClE Is AnTiSeMeTIC” -zionists probably
google it and youre gonna see exactly those headlines
But why say that they're Jewish, couldn't more important information be what company the own, what politicians they associate with, y'know? We need to take down the governments who murder children but we don't do that by pointing out what traits certain people were born with.
Facts are antisemitic. Books are Hamas.
-- zionists
probably
ftfy
The original Washington Post article described them as “Business Titans.” I guess that is a euphemism for Billionaire Jews.
If they were Chinese or Russians, they would be called oligarchs. But not in America!
If they were Chinese or Russians, they'd be reported for not filing as foreign agents even if they're American citizens.
Please tell me you understand this is antisemitic
Because those listed were all Jewish? But instead of mentioning that they were all Jewish, they called them “Business Titans” hence the euphemism….
The Post was afraid of calling them Jewish. So afraid that the Post didn’t open comments on the article……very, very, rare for the Post. Understandable though…..the Post has ten op-ed writers writing from the Jewish perspective, but no Palestinian or even, Arab or Muslim contributors.
Please explain how so?
Israel is on the wrong side of history. And so is the US for continuing to shovel weapons into Israel’s lap.
It didn’t have to end up like this. Netanyahu and his pals need to rot in prison.
One of them is connected to Jared Kushner of course. In addition, I'm glad I don't purchase from those brands anymore. If I need a PC it will be refurbished and second hand.
Anti Zionist Jew here, the word Jewish does not need to be in this title and it’s presence does have anti undertones. Billionaires are parasites and reporting on these leeches trying to use their power to crack down on our freedom to protest is the story. Whether Jewish, Evangelical, or atheist, a Zionist is a Zionist.

How does that apply here?
If kids are getting you this mad then maybe re-evaluate your stance
Why are we not in any war with them
Hey hey hey! Point out that Israelis supporters use their money and connection to subvert/influence the law is antiseptic!
Absolute evil. Howard Shultz is filth as are the rest of these Zionist terrorists.
Why don't we hear about pro-Palestian billionaires at all? Legit question, excuse my naivety. Are there really zero decent human beings at the top?
Think about why these zionists are rich. They are only concerned about their own greed and amassing of wealth. They do not care about human lives. Socialists and anyone else on the left side of the political spectrum are more concerned about people over profit. This is why socialists are consistently pro-Palestine. They respect concepts such as equality in rights and equal application of international law. The kind of people that put profit above all else tend to be sociopaths. It's not just a coincidence.
The very concept of being a millionaire or a billionaire is an alien concept to people who advocate more equitable distribution of resources. Someone who has this kind of excessive wealth has effectively stolen it from the labour of people they did not pay properly. They are hoarding that wealth and using it to give themselves a level of power that they would otherwise not have.
It's has started with their media bombardment "Protestors are pro-Hamas".... It's know fact that most western Media is owned by them. Go anywhere in USA and you will find some Jewish person owning local newspaper. This has been happening for decades but people are just now taking a notice... Kanye West prime example of their wrath.
I don’t think exclusively “jewish” billionaires are doing this. All billionaires are anti-freedom and hate it when the less wealthy speak out for what they believe in
The left is also anti-freedom too and the odd billionaire is pro-freedom although most are part of the elite seeking to oppress all of us with digital IDs and CBDCs, etc.
The left is not anti freedom. Specially when you consider there is negative freedom and positive freedom.
Negative freedom is cheap and useless. Billionaires will gladly fight for your negative freedoms like freedom of speech. I can say Biden sucks and nobody will send me to the gulag. Yay.
The freedom to do something or get something is positive freedom. You tell me which side cares about the freedom to get housing or shelter being universal.
What you call negative freedoms are the most fundamental freedoms though. Without those there is no democracy. Being told where one can and cannot go or what one can say or not while having adequate shelter and food is not true freedom. And it is the left/centrist parties which are more than happy to drive up housing prices and inflation so that more and more people struggle with poverty. (For the record I am politically homeless, not left or right).
You realize there’s places you currently cannot go to (among other laws)? Are you also implying that negative freedoms such as freedom of speech are more important than food and housing?
To me, leftists are anti capitalist (socialist and/or anarchist). Liberals believe in liberalism (free markets/ capitalism). Democrats and republicans are both liberals.
When you group left/centrists, to me, it doesn’t make sense.
In Canada the Liberal party pretends to be centrist but are pretty left leaning like Democrats. And our Liberal party and our further left NDP party work together. So here they are grouped together.
Without freedom of speech we cannot speak out about injustice, people may indeed be starving but their voices are silenced. The coming control grid via digital IDs, CBDCs, social scoring, smart cities, etc. will impact our ability to even grow food ourselves and may result in the loss of our homes. So without those basic fundamental freedoms like freedom of speech, freedom of assembly and movement people will starve.
Yes the freedom of speech is a good thing, but it is not enough. Speech is easily ignored via police brutality or misinformation.
Furthermore, positive freedom of speech only applies to the rich. I mean ffs we’re chatting on reddit. This is about as good as it gets for my speech. I don’t have a platform or money for lobbying.
I understand your point but if voices are silenced en masse as they are about to be with Canada’s dystopian Online Harms Act it is significant. Our voices matter.
We already have digital ID's, I feel like you might have missed the last 20 or 30 years of technology evolution.
No we don’t, Australia is just introducing them now and people are not happy. Digital IDs will be interoperable and will usher in CBDCs, aka a social credit system. Just because something is technologically convenient doesn’t make it safe for democracy.
your phone is your digital identity. It links yourself to every single detail about your life
They didn't need to add "Jewish" there, basically every American billionaire is pro-israel, as Israel acts as a foothold for American imperial interests in the middle east, and American billionaires benefit from American imperialism. Also, they didn't need to put "secretly," as that would imply that American billionaires have ever been subtle about their support of Israel.
Feels like they're twisting true information into something that appeals to antisemites while not putting off the average ill-informed armchair Palestine supporter. I'm steering clear of this publication and I'd advise anyone who considers themselves pro-palestine but not antisemitic to do the same.
Excellent talk by Max Blumenthal which covers some of the funding/funders.
Just read the article on the Washington Post.. WOW. If this is what came out in the public, imagine what is hidden behind the scenes. These American politicians and institutions will sell their soul for cheap.
They don't stop with begging for money and weapons to commit genocide, they want to influence the world in their favour!
I will never ever buy another product from any of their companies, we should all divest!!!
Shame on you, you zionist terrorist!
bethesda, maryland.
?
lots of similar rich people
Gotcha, I grew up near there so was curious about the context
these people are traitors to the first amendment and therefore the USA.
Reminder that people can't decide what ethnicity they are born as. Please post articles that show us helpful information to stop the hundreds of thousands being killed like what politicians they commonly associate themselves with, etc. instead of articles clearly intended to make you feel like ethnicity has something to do with it.
To be extremely honest . Non Jewish western / American billionaires are also as much if not more guilty.
I don’t think highlighting this billionaires religion gives any new info
Pro-Israel
Jewishbillionaires caught secretly plotting to crackdown student protests
The fact they're Jewish is irrelevant.
agree, most if not all billionaires are probably zionists, considering the fact that being pro palestine/anti zionist would force them to reckon with their politics and their role in society
If it were a group of Arab Muslim billionaires plotting to suppress speech and change the American narrative, you can bet their religion/ethnic group would be highly relevant to those in the media and those in governance and the public.

Is this air anti-Semitic? This water? 😭
Worth pointing out the title of the article is unnecessary. Billionaires are the problem, and they can rot. Being jewish got nothing to do with it (although undoubtedly it will end up being weaponized. Zionists will say its antisemitic to call out billionaires- yet turn and say “jewish billionaires are actually FUNDING the protests”)
Nah, being Jewish is highly relevant in this context. Maybe Zionist is more relevant.
How
If I told you 10 Jewish protestors were arrested for protesting against Israel, is the fact that they’re Jewish relevant? Certainly, because Israel is a Jewish ethnostate with right of return.

The Palestinians are Semites…Occupying Palestine is the most antisemitic crime anyone could do.
Palestinians are semitic but historically, "antisemite" has been used to specifically describe anti-Jewish sentiment
Semite is just someone who speaks a semetic language. Its not an ethnicity or genetic group. It's the same as describing all the people who speak the Romance languages as Romantic.
antisemitic
The term antisemetic was invented by German racists who wanted to come up with a scientific sounding term to describe hatred of Jews that they could use in public. Antisemitism literally only refers to hatred of or racism towards Jews. It doesn't mean hatred of any ethnicity that speaks a semetic language.
Palestinians carry the DNA of the people who occupied that land 4400 yrs ago (that's older than the Hebrew faith btw) with a greater genetic continuity.
Stop stumping for the basel program and the occupation of a country.
