It is not just ONE person, you should at least read the "Letter to Israel’s senior legal officers" at the bottom of jewishvoiceforlabour.org.uk/ar

Just one of the resulting risks when MANY and INFLUENTIAL Jews (in this particular case, one can find thoughtless idiots of any race all over the world) have turned into monsters themselves: {

“Normalised discourse which calls for annihilation, erasure, devastation and the like is liable to impact the manner by which soldiers conduct themselves.”

It highlights the November killing of Yuval Doron Kestelman, who stopped a terrorist attack at a Jerusalem bus stop by shooting two gunmen but was then shot himself by soldiers who arrived at the scene minutes later and assumed he was a terrorist.
}

Perhaps a bigger risk is that the Biden administration is walking the golden middle way between such highly extremes and more hesitating ones: it may still end up endorsing genocide.

Has the Israeli goverment pressed the self-destruct button?

If Donald Trump returns to the White House, close allies want to dramatically change the government's interpretation of #Civil #Rights-era laws to💥 focus on "anti-white racism" 💥rather than discrimination against people of color.

Trump's Justice Department would push to #eliminate or #upend programs in government and corporate America that are designed to counter racism that has favored whites.

Targets would range from decades-old policies aimed at giving minorities economic opportunities, to more recent programs that began in response to the pandemic and the killing of George Floyd.

Trump campaign spokesperson #Steven #Cheung told Axios: "As President Trump has said, all staff, offices, and initiatives connected to Biden's un-American policy will be immediately #terminated."

Longtime aides and allies preparing for a potential second Trump administration have been laying legal groundwork with a flurry of lawsuits and legal complaints — some of which have been successful.

A central vehicle for the effort has been #America #First #Legal, founded by former Trump aide #Stephen #Miller, who has called the group conservatives' "long-awaited answer to the ACLU."

America First cited the Civil Rights Act of 1964 in February in a lawsuit against CBS and Paramount Global for what the group argued was discrimination against a white, straight man who was a writer for the show "Seal Team" in 2017.

In February, the group filed a civil rights complaint against the NFL over its "Rooney Rule."

The rule — named for Dan #Rooney, late owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers — was instituted in 2003 and expanded in 2022.
It requires NFL teams to interview at least two minority candidates for vacant general manager, head coach and coordinator positions.

American First argued that "given the limited time frame to hire executives and coaches after the season, this results in fewer opportunities for similarly situated, well-qualified candidates who are not minorities."

In 2021, Miller's group successfully sued to block the implementation of a $29 billion pandemic-era program for women- and minority-owned restaurants, saying it discriminated against white-owned businesses.

"This ruling is the first, but crucial, step towards ending government-sponsored racial discrimination," Miller said then.

Other Trump-aligned groups are preparing for a future Trump Justice Department to implement — or challenge — policies on a broader scale.

The #Heritage #Foundation's well-funded "#Project2025" envisions a second Trump administration ending what it calls "affirmative discrimination."

Part of the plan, written by former Trump Justice Department official #Gene #Hamilton, argues that "advancing the interests of certain segments of American society ... comes at the expense of other Americans — and in nearly all cases violates longstanding federal law."

Hamilton is America First Legal's general counsel.

Such groups have gained momentum with the #Supreme #Court's turn to the right
— most notably its recent rejection of affirmative action in college admissions.

The court ruled that programs designed to benefit people of color and address past injustices discriminate against white and Asian Americans.

In 2021, a federal judge blocked a $4 billion program to help Black farmers

#December 18, 1898
#OTD Ethelind Fearon, #English #Gardener & #Writer, is born.

In her book, The #Reluctant Gardener (1952), she wrote,

With #Flowers, as w/ all [things] #Garden, you 1st decide what #Kind you #Want to #Grow, & then whittle it down to what CAN grow in the space.

When you [Review] the #List & Reduce it to what you can #Afford to grow,
& then #Eliminate the ones you know from #Bitter #Experience will #Refuse to grow,
You #Save a very #Great deal of labour, indeed.

Closeup of the cover of Ethelind Fearon's book, The Reluctant Gardener, which shows a man leaning back in a lawn chair, smoking a pipe with a book on the ground beside him. He is relaxing beside his garden under the shade of a tree and is not making any effort to garden.
