My latest: Hamas U.
Their heroes take hostages.
So, now, they’re doing likewise.
Right now, today, that’s what us happening at California State University in Los Angeles: a pro-Hamas gang – after illegally occupying university property for weeks – have taken hostages. As I write this, somewhere between 50 and 100 “protestors” have blocked the ground floor exits at the Student Services Building at CSU, and set up barricades around the building.
They vandalized the inside of the building, stolen equipment, and used trashed vehicles to set up a barricade at the front of the building.
And they took hostages, just like their Hamas heroes in Gaza.
The school’s president, Berenecea Johnson Eanes, was “sheltering in place” in her office on the eighth floor on Wednesday and Thursday. And an unknown number of staff were being held inside the building, too. Meanwhile, outside the building, university employees were told to leave, quickly, because of the potential danger.
CSU spokesman Erik Hollins said: “I can confirm that there are still a small number of administrators in the building. We are working through options to bring this fluid situation to the best resolution possible.”
Across Canada and the United States, there are dozens of illegal occupations of university campuses like CSU. They claim to favor divestment of dealings with Israel. But – after a certain number of assaults of Jews and Hitler salutes and displays of Hamas symbols – everyone knows that just isn’t true, anymore.
After witnessing months of well-funded, well-organized “protests” at places of so-called higher learning, we all now know the truth: if you are wearing a mask at an “encampment,” chanting about genocide by the Jewish state, you are an antisemite. Full stop.
So who is overseeing this antisemitic madness on North American campuses? Who is really running the Jew-hating show at Canadian campuses like U of T and McGill, and American campuses like CSU and Columbia?
Picture a flowchart, with Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) at the centre. It is the ringleader. It is the not-so-hidden hand. And it has hundreds of chapters across Canada and the United States, and now controls antisemitic and anti-Western activity at those campuses.
SJP’s activities are overseen by a shadowy group called National Students for Justice in Palestine (NSJP). The NSJP was created by something called American Muslims for Palestine (AMP). SJP is the offspring of NSJP, in effect, and NSJP is the child of AMP.
And AMP, as described in pleadings filed in the state of Virginia a few weeks ago, is “Hamas propaganda division” in North America. Anyone watching the insanity at places like CSU and McGill – which also saw a university building occupied a few days ago, until Montreal police drove them out with batons and rubber bullets – isn’t surprised by that. SJP, NSJP and AMP are pretty open about what they do, and how they do it.
But AMP, the grandparent of all this, is very, very circumspect about its ultimate parentage: it is a creation of the Muslim Brotherhood, which is behind every Islamic terrorist organization on Earth.
The Muslim Brotherhood created a Palestine Committee in the U.S. in 1988. That committee was itself made up of several organizations, like the Holy Land Foundation, the Islamic Association of Palestine and the American Muslim Society. All of them, it turned out, were working directly with Hamas on public relations efforts in North America.
But they all got caught. They were found criminally and civilly liable for aiding and abetting a terror group. They were shut down.
And then, just a few years later, a new alphabet-soup of pro-Hamas organizations rose out of the ashes of the old ones. They were led by most of the same people, at the same offices, doing the same things: AMP, NSJP, SJP. Except, this time, they’re being careful. They’ve learned their lesson.
Lane Kendall is a researcher and academic in the U.S. and has worked to untie the new web of pro-Hamas front companies and organizations. In an interview, Kendall said: “If you look back far enough into how SJP came to be, it connects directly to the Muslim Brotherhood. And the Muslim Brotherhood is very much a terrorist organization that is at the foundation of every terrorist movement in the Middle East. Without the Muslim Brotherhood, the SJP doesn’t exist. So that’s why we all should be concerned about SJP – because they’re very much in bed with, and funded by and organized by, the same people that are funding and organizing Hamas and Hezbollah.”
But why do terrorists bother with privileged, inexperienced white college students in the U.S. and Canada? Says Kendall: “The organizational power of students is underestimated. I’d be willing to bet, for example, that the Liberal Party of Canada depends very heavily on young voters. And if the Liberal Party has to cater to young voters, and all of a sudden young voters have the same policy that terrorist organizations have? Well, now you have terrorist organizations able to directly influence policymaking decisions at the highest levels.”
And, now, they’ve become so bold – and so indifferent to the rule of law – they’re taking hostages and shutting down public institutions. Concludes Lane Kendall: “We need to get to the bottom of the funding and the control of these organizations. Right now.”
Will we? Or will it take another hostage-taking – or a killing – to force us to finally act?

Warren,
Hamas supporters have broken the rubber band. Taking hostages is a bridge too far. They may be consolidating their support among a young demographic, but in the process they are massively losing everyone else. Not a win situation by any means for Hamas and their supporters.
That’s the problem with terrorism. It’s inevitably a no-win political option. Arafat recognized that with the PLO and to the extent that the PA is a legal authority on the West Bank, there was a small political win when the PLO informally renounced terrorism. The debate over their charter still exists today.
Terrorism is always a dead-end for a population or a given race. Given that so many groups refuse to recognize that, little progress is even possible as regards the future of the Palestinian people.
That’s because, to be fair, in the context of the history books, we only refer to it as “terrorism” when the terrorists lose. When they don’t, it becomes “uprising,” “revolution,” “freedom fighter,” etc. That’s a universal truth. If it weren’t, there’d be substantially less motivation for terrorists to even try.
What is the confusion? The Liberal Party of Canada and the New Demcrat Party are in full support of these groups and even fund them with Canadian taxpayer money.
If Canada’s elites believed that these groups were not the heroes and rightful heirs to the freedom our fore fathers fought and died to defend, how on Earth would the Liberal Party be polling in the 40% range in Toronto St. Paul’s by election, and almost certain to easily take the seat next week, further ensuring their control of parliament.
It’s time to simply face facts. Canada, and significant portions of the United States are no longer the socieities they were, or that we wish them to be. Their institutions and civic ways of life are simply different, as our more colourful southern neighbours with excess pigmentation might say, “They belong to the streets…”
We can cry and lament the passing, but that changes nothing. If you don’t like it here, as the old saying goes, “go back where you came from.” Which in our case, means “die already.”
The future belongs to the Feminist/Muslim Islamist Alliance of the Liberal/NDP Party. Get used to it.
The political pendulum is swinging away from the Ten Lost Years of Justin Trudeau. The imminent shellacking of the Liberal Party in the next election is going to force some soul searching amongst the progressives who have controlled the narrative but are finding themselves unable to lobby because the government funding has been axed.
