The author lists events that are the norm for the Jewish diaspora.
"The incidents in the report include a man who invited people to help him “hunt Palestinians”; the stabbing of a 6-year-old boy in Chicago; and death threats to Muslim parents outside a school in Fair Lawn, N.J., a few blocks from Paterson. More recently, three Palestinian students were shot last month in an unprovoked attack in Burlington, Vt.
“The shooting in Vermont has been terrifying,” said Rania Mustafa, 31, executive director of the Palestinian American Community Center. “But it was inevitable due to all the anti-Palestinian and anti-Islamic rhetoric in the media and by politicians.”As horrific as this is for Palestinian diaspora to experience, it's par for the course for Jews all over the world; just another day for the Jewish diaspora. Nazi grafitti, mass shootings at synagogues, assaults and murders of innocent Jews. Of course it sucks.
Anti-Semitic right wing extremists are gleefully piggybacking on the current wave of anti-Zionism and Isr/Pal conflict to increase the levels of antisemitism all across the world.

And the Palestinians, since the beginning of time, have been the subject of scorn and ire from ALL of the world's peoples----at one time or another. Maybe they can ask why the hell that is, or maybe - shut up and stop complaining.
Here's to Progressives. Talk Hard. Talk Loud.
Things, are slowly, slowly changing.
Keep at it.
And please, keep blaming the Right. Eventually....they might make new friends.
One can only hope.

Wow, I never even knew there was Little Palestine and wow it's not that far from me.
Will have to time a visit.
I bet the food will be delicious, and reasonable - not cheap portions and overprices.
Also the people - will be welcoming and hospitable.....they won't give a funny look because I'm not like them.
Ok gotta eye-frick some food reviews now I'm pumped.
