This misinformation had been widely circulated and was even cited by Joe Biden as\u2064 a motivation for his 2020 presidential run. The article goes on to describe what it refers to as \u201cthe new Charlottesville\u201d occurring weekly in America, involving violent events spearheaded\u2063 by \u200cIslamists \u200band leftists targeting Jewish communities,\u2064 such as a recent incident in\u2062 Los Angeles where \u200ba synagogue was surrounded by \u200da pro-Hamas group. The author criticizes the media and\u200d political figures, including President\u2064 Biden, for allegedly insufficient or\u200c misguided responses to \u2063these antisemitic\u2062 events. The text also accuses Biden of fearing to\u200b alienate \u2063the pro-Hamoas faction within \u200chis political party, suggesting a parallel\u2064 between Biden&#8217;s statements and the misattributed comments\u2064 of\u2064 Trump, implying both suggest that there are \u2062&#8221;very fine \u2064people&#8221; on both sides of these conflicts. \u2063The author concludes by criticizing the broader handling of such movements and protests by law\u200d enforcement and government officials, implying a double standard in governmental responses to different\u200d forms\u200c of extremism.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>A few days ago, Snopes, a left-wing \u201cfact checking\u201d site, finally <a href=\"https:\/\/www.snopes.com\/fact-check\/trump-very-fine-people\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">admitted<\/a> that Donald Trump had never called the neo-Nazis who marched at the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville in 2017, \u201cvery fine people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For years, Democrats, including Joe Biden, have repeated this false claim. Indeed, Biden, who\u2019s been running for the presidency since 1987, ludicrously <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2021\/01\/21\/us\/politics\/charlottesville-attack-biden.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">told the press<\/a> in 2019 that the events in Charlottesville, and Trump\u2019s alleged reaction, inspired him to run in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Well, there\u2019s a new Charlottesville every week in America nowadays. They aren\u2019t led by a few hundred Nazi cosplayers, but thousands of Islamists and leftist fellow travelers whose goals are supported by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/bidens-decision-to-keep-space-command-in-colorado-to-be-investigated\/\" title=\"Investigation launched into Biden's choice to retain Space Command in Colorado.\">numerous administration officials<\/a>, congressmen, and newsrooms.<\/p>\n<p>Our latest Charlottesville <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thejc.com\/news\/usa\/keffiyeh-clad-mob-launches-bloody-assault-on-los-angeles-synagogue-dw0csx1i\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">occurred<\/a> this weekend, when a mob of pro-Hamas goons showed up in front of a synagogue in the heavily Jewish Pico-Robertson neighborhood in LA \u2014 because it\u2019s all about being \u201ccritical of Israel,\u201d right? They wore terror apparel, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/HenMazzig\/status\/1805024439785971878\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">called<\/a> for violence against Jews, allegedly <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/OliLondonTV\/status\/1805006070554804621\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">beat up a Jewish woman<\/a>, and impeded people from worshipping. Unlike in November, when a 69-year-old Los Angeles Jewish man was killed after a pro-Hamas \u201cprotester\u201d threw a megaphone at his head, no one died.<\/p>\n<p>If <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/NoahPollak\/status\/1805066899535139191\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reports<\/a> are true, and I have zero reason to believe they aren\u2019t, the LAPD ensured that Hamas supporters were able to encircle the synagogue and kept Jewish worshippers and counter-protestors out. Only one person was arrested, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.israelhayom.com\/2024\/06\/24\/violent-clashes-erupt-between-pro-palestinian-protesters-and-israel-supporters-outside-la-synagogue\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">charged<\/a> with a misdemeanor for allegedly possessing a \u201cspiked flag\u201d \u2014 as one does at a peaceful protest. I wonder if it was a Hamas flag or Hezbollah one?<\/p>\n<p>Many in the media again framed the violence as a clash between anti-Israel and pro-Israel protesters \u2014 \u201cProtesters clash outside synagogue in L.A.\u201d or \u201cFights break out during dueling protests in Pico-Robertson\u201d and so on.<\/p>\n<p>The (rhetorical) question is why do the pro-\u201cPalestine\u201d protestors show up in front of synagogues, <a href=\"https:\/\/abc7chicago.com\/museum-of-tolerance-protest-fights-hamas\/14034316\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Holocaust museums<\/a>, and the performances of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/story\/entertainment\/celebrities\/2024\/06\/24\/jerry-seinfeld-protest-in-australia-palestine-israel\/74191608007\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jewish comedians<\/a> in the first place. Why do they target <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/04\/21\/nyregion\/columbia-protests-antisemitism.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jewish students<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ktvu.com\/news\/vandalism-and-fliers-calling-for-a-boycott-of-6-jewish-eateries-in-sf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jewish businesses<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p>Pro-Israel protestors don\u2019t show up in front mosques. Nor do \u201cpeace protestors,\u201d who never seem to object to the string of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/articles\/cw4dk2kzy5wo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">atrocities<\/a> happening thousands of miles away in the Islamic world \u2014 which, unlike most claims regarding Gaza, aren\u2019t concocted. If anyone did, the entire media and federal government would be mobilized to battle the evils of Islamophobia.<\/p>\n<p>But back to Biden. His very presidency supposedly hinges on the events of Charlottesville, and yet outside the occasional perfunctory and vague denunciations of anti-Jewish \u201cprotests\u201d \u2014  where he usually reminds everyone of the imaginary scourge of \u201cIslamophobia\u201d or championing the Palestinian cause \u2014 he does nothing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI condemn the antisemitic protests \u2026\u201d Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/biden-condemns-antisemitic-protests-palestine-columbia-university\/\">told<\/a> reporters after anti-Jewish demonstrations at Columbia University a few months ago. \u201cI also condemn those who don\u2019t understand what\u2019s going on with the Palestinians \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Boy, that sounds like the president is saying there are \u201cvery fine people\u201d on both sides. Biden, you see, denounces antisemitic keffiyeh-wearing terror cheerleaders who hate America and the West and <em>also<\/em> those who refuse to \u201cunderstand\u201d that there\u2019s no moral rationalization for Hamas\u2019s murder and rape of civilians.

This week a Jewish couple was allegedly <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2024\/06\/23\/us-news\/nyc-jewish-family-pummeled-at-5th-grade-commencement-by-attendees-shouting-free-palestine-mom-says\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">beaten<\/a> at a Brooklyn elementary school graduation by an Arabic-speaking family \u2014 who taunted them with shouts of \u201cFree Palestine!\u201d \u201cGaza is Ours!\u201d and \u201cDeath to Israel!\u201d I\u2019m sure the perpetrators have nothing to worry about in NYC. They are perched high on the left\u2019s victim class hierarchy.<\/p>\n<p>It would be nice if there was even a fraction of the anger or coverage of these new Charlottesvilles. But most Democrats aren\u2019t offended by all antisemites.

If a pro-Hamas mob beats down a Jewish woman, we\u2019re lucky if the paper even reports on the incident.<\/p>\n<p>And every time there is a new Charlottesville, it not only affirms why Israel needs to exist \u2014 or that \u201canti-Zionism\u201d and antisemitism are now indistinguishable \u2014 it tells us that Jews can\u2019t rely on the contemporary left to be on their side. Not while the president needs to placate the left\u2019s extremist anti-Israel faction and he trolls for antisemitic votes in Michigan.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<div>\n<p>      David Harsanyi is a senior editor at The Federalist, a nationally syndicated columnist, a Happy Warrior columnist at National Review, and author of five books\u2014the most recent, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Eurotrash-America-Reject-Failed-Continent\/dp\/0063066017\/\">Eurotrash: Why America Must Reject the Failed Ideas of a Dying Continent<\/a>.
