There is a well-coordinated, national effort between teachers, activist organizations, and administrators to indoctrinate American kids against Israel.
The inimitable @AbigailShrier with a bombshell investigation.

If you burn down ballot boxes with the messages “Free Gaza” in Oregon, the local police will act as if the motive is unknown.
If you commit a hate crime against a Jewish American en route to a synagogue in Chicago, the local Mayor will act as if the motive is unknown.
These two seemingly unrelated events are symptoms of a deeper disease : an America dangerously desensitized to Antisemitism.
You failed to identify that the victim was a Jewish man, in a densely populated Jewish neighborhood, going to synagogue for Shabbat morning prayers. What will it take for you to acknowledge the Jewish community?
Over the last year, newly-appointed Chicago Public School Board President Rev. Mitchell Ikenna Johnson has made deeply offensive and antisemitic comments, calling into doubt his ability to fairly represent Jewish students and families in Chicago Public Schools.
In response, I and many of my colleagues on the Chicago City Council, are calling for him to apologize and immediately step down from his position.
Once again, the UN has rolled out the red carpet for one of the most antisemitic figures in modern history, granting her a stage to spew baseless propaganda and lies.
Not a word was said about the 101 hostages still suffering at the hands of Hamas.
No mention of Hamas or Hezbollah—the very groups who ignited this war.
@FranceskAlbs , how dare you exploit the Holocaust and the bloodiest massacre the Jewish people have endured since, manipulating history to suit your twisted agenda?
Your presence at the UN is a disgrace, a betrayal of all moral standards. Resign immediately. Leave your credentials at the door and join your friends at Hamas and Hezbollah, where you belong.
“My Jewish colleagues appear drunk with the Israeli power and will live to see their payment.”
Newly appointed Chicago Board of Education president has a lengthy history of posting inflammatory and antisemitic social media commentary, @GSDeutch reports https://t.co/Xar0S2uyR7
StopAntisemitism demands that Reverend Mitchell Johnson step down as Chicago’s new Education Board President.
His disturbing statement about his Jewish colleagues being “drunk with Israeli power” and threatening that they will “live to see their payment” has no place in leadership or near children.
A visibly Jewish man was slashed in the face yesterday in Brooklyn.
An Orthodox Jewish man was shot in the back in Chicago on Shabbat.
A rabbi was struck with a wooden stake in Maryland 2 weeks ago.
Violent attacks on random Jews are becoming commonplace.
If you're silent, you're part of the problem.
Why not mention WHY the victim was shot (because he was Jewish)? Why not mention WHERE the victim was shot (en route to a synagogue)?
Any Mayor who cannot be bothered to acknowledge the antisemitism of a hate crime against a Jewish man heading to a synagogue is unworthy of the office he holds. An act of hate against the Jewish community is an act of hate against us all.
The victim was a Jewish man, who was wearing traditional Jewish garb, walking to a Jewish place of worship on the Jewish day of rest. Don’t erase his identity and don’t try to minimize the fear and anxiety my community feels after this attack. We’re scared and we need to know that our mayor has our back.
Our remarks following the revelation regarding the antisemitic statements of the new president of the Chicago Public School system:
We find it appalling that Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson’s newly appointed president of the Chicago Board of Education, Rev. Mitchell Ikenna Johnson, has a history of making antisemitic statements, as reported by Jewish Insider.
By saying, following Oct. 7th, that “People have an absolute right to attack their oppressors by any means necessary,” Rev. Johnson explicitly supported and justified the largest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, where over 1,200 people were slaughtered, raped, and kidnapped, including many US citizens.
Rev. Johnson’s additional statements referring to Jews as Satanic and comparing Jews to Nazis constitutes pure and blatant antisemitism. It is incomprehensible that someone with these antisemitic views was appointed to lead the Chicago Public School system, designed to promote education, coexistence, and inclusion.
Jewish and Israeli parents in the city cannot feel safe under his leadership, nor can any student or parent with a moral compass.
It is unfathomable that a person such as Rev. Johnson has passed the vetting process. He is not fit for a public position, let alone a position with the responsibility to educate the next generation.
This is the latest example of the antisemitic hate that pervades the inner circle of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson. We expect that Mayor Brandon Johnson will disavow this inflammatory rhetoric and make a commitment to combatting antisemitism in Chicago, in both words and actions.
Yesterday, the presidents of Harvard, MIT, and Penn spoke before Congress. They had one simple question to answer, does calling for the genocide of Jews break the university code of conduct and is it considered harassment? It should have been a simple yes. Instead they said it depends on the context and it depends on whether the speech turns into conduct. Their failed moral leadership has led to the moral decay of campus culture. So now the mask is off and we can no longer overlook their dismissal of antisemitism as mere innocence. These antisemitic incidents are not just a mere anomaly. This is systematic Jew-hatred at the highest levels of academia. President Magill, President Gay, and President Kornbluth should either be fired or resign.
“We are fighting for our lives, for our future, and mostly for the future of our children.”
Arab-Israeli TV anchor @lucyaharish interrupted rolling coverage of Hamas’s atrocities against Israelis to make this heartrending appeal to the world.
