DOPE: Israel Hating UN Official Duped by Satirical “Chief Rabbi of Gaza” Into Agreeing to Speak at Anti-Israel Event.
May 8, 2024.
A notoriously anti-Israel United Nations official, Francesca Albanese, was tricked into agreeing to speak at an anti-Israel event at Columbia University by a satirical account posing as the “Chief Rabbi of Gaza.” The account, “Rabbi Linda Goldstein,” is known for mocking progressive anti-Israel talking points.
The Daily Wire, which published the hilarious idiocy of Albanese, revealed that “Goldstein” – who is actually a male lawyer whose name isn’t public – emailed Albanese, the UN’s Special Rapporteur on the Palestinian territories, inviting her to deliver a keynote address on the “Morality of Intifada” to thousands of students gathered at the Gaza solidarity encampment. Albanese’s research assistant, Eleonora De Martin, responded, asking for more details on the topic and length.
Despite being told the speech would defend “intifada,” De Martin maintained interest and asked about an honorarium. Goldstein offered a small honorarium, which De Martin requested be transferred to the “fellowship of her volunteer” due to official capacity restrictions.

A pro-Hamas student at Florida. International University let the cat out of the bag and admitted that the protests are “anti-Jewish” and not just anti-Israel.
In a classic case of the perpetrator playing the victim, the student complained that the pro-Hamas protesters are not being protected from counterprotesters.
“Are we as Arab, Palestinian, Muslim, and anti-Jewish students not worth protecting?” she asked.
It should be noted that she read her speech from a paper, showing that “anti-Jewish” wasn’t merely a slip of the tongue.

Republicans slam Biden for pausing Israel arms shipment.
“This is obscene. It is absurd,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.). “Give Israel what they need to fight the war they can’t afford to lose.”

(May 8, 2024 / JNS)
House and Senate Republicans slammed U.S. President Joe Biden’s decision to pause an arms shipment to Israel and demanded that the administration explain why it failed to notify Congress.
Sens. Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) and Ted Budd (R-N.C.) wrote to the Biden administration on Monday asking for answers about the frozen arms deal.
“We are shocked that your administration has reportedly decided to withhold critical ammunition to Israel,” the senators wrote.
“You promised your commitment to Israel was ironclad,” they added. “Pausing much-needed military support to our closest Middle Eastern ally signals otherwise.”
The Biden administration withheld the approval of the sale of two types of precision-guided bombs, the first such delay of an arms sale since Oct. 7, Politico reported on Tuesday.
