Red-Green Alliance to Cause Anti-Jewish Turmoil at Democratic Convention and College Campuses
Violent protests are expected to disrupt the Democratic National Convention in Chicago next week, led by groups that have deep-seated hatred for Israel and America.
This coalition, known as the Red-Green Alliance, brings together the far left, anarchists, Islamists, and pro-Hamas terror supporters who share a common goal of opposing Western civilization and capitalism, often directing their ire toward Jews and Israel as symbols of their collective hatred.
For over a decade, our website, Legal Insurrection, has been monitoring this Red-Green Alliance.
Groups like Students for Justice in Palestine, American Muslims for Palestine, and Jewish Voice for Peace (despite their name) have collaborated with social justice movements to create anti-Israel sentiment on campuses, leading to incidents like the recent situation at UCLA.
The alliance has also been evident at Columbia University and during the recent anti-Israel riots where pro-Hamas groups marched alongside Black Lives Matter activists.
The Democratic National Convention has become a battleground for this Red-Green Alliance, with anti-Israel groups pressuring the party to avoid nominating pro-Israel figures like Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro for vice president, displaying a concerning anti-Semitic trend within the party.
The situation has escalated to the point where violence is expected at the DNC and campuses where these groups are active.
The Red-Green Alliance has received approval for a “March on the DNC” and similar protests on campuses, threatening pro-Israel delegates and promoting an intimidating atmosphere.
The aim is to create Jew-free zones on campuses, with groups like Students for Justice in Palestine leading the charge.
Academic institutions like the University of North Carolina and Columbia University are bracing for protests advocating armed rebellion and targeting Jewish students.
The lack of response from political and academic leaders is concerning, and without intervention, campuses across the country may become hotbeds of anti-Israel sentiment and intimidation.
It is crucial for leaders to take a stand against these groups and their backers to prevent the spread of violence and hate.
As these protests continue, it is essential to see real leadership and resistance against the forces promoting division and intimidation.
