Irving donated $500,000 to anti-Hate organizations and the Nets did the same.


The Los Angeles Anti-demolition Attorney’s Reaction against the LA Police and the Los Angeles Boosting District Attorney George Gascn

The banner appeared over the busy Los Angeles freeway a day before Beverly Hills police reported antisemitic flyers being distributed in the city, CNN affiliate KCAL/KCBS reported.

He made a threat to go death con 3 on Jewish people. He also ranted in an Instagram post about Ari Emanuel, CEO of the talent agency Endeavor, referencing “business” people when he clearly meant Jews.

His tweet has since been removed, and Twitter locked his account. West apologized to the people he hurt in an interview with Piers Morgan, but he did not regret making the remark.

Photos taken Saturday show a small group of demonstrators with their arms raised in what appears to be the Nazi salute behind banners reading, “honk if you know” alongside “Kanye is right about the Jews.”

On Sunday the LA District Attorney George Gascn lambasted the incident on his web site saying, “We cannot tolerate the #Antisemitic display today on an LA FWY.” The cancer of WhiteSupremacy must be excised. This message is dangerous & cannot be normalized. I condemn this disgusting behavior and am in solidarity with the Jewish community.

The controversy comes as antisemitism has been on the rise in the US over the past few years. The ADL says that antisemitic incidents were up from 942 in 2015 to at least 2,717 in 2011.

Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of ADL, explained his organization’s stance on the social networking site. “The answer to the question “Do you have any antisemitic beliefs” is always “NO” without equivocation,” he wrote, further explaining the ADL accepted Kyrie’s word when he said he took responsibility, “but today he did not make good on that promise. He clearly has a lot of work to do.

Abrams went on to call out Adidas, which is reviewing its partnership with West, saying “decisive action against antisemitism by Adidas is long overdue.”

Beverly Hills Mayor Lili Bosse condemned the flyers and the banner as “disgusting hate speech” in a tweet. “As a daughter of an Auschwitz survivor, I will always bear witness and speak out.”

Irving was condemned last week by, among others, Nets owner Joe Tsai and the NBA for tweeting a link to the 2018 movie “Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America.”

“To All Jewish families and Communities that are hurt and affected from my post, I am deeply sorry to have caused you pain, and I apologize,” Irving wrote. “I initially reacted out of emotion to being unjustly labeled Anti-Semitic, instead of focusing on the healing process of my Jewish Brothers and Sisters that were hurt from the hateful remarks made in the Documentary.

I take responsivity for the negative impact of my post on the Jewish community. The documentary says a lot about me, but I don’t think it accurately depicts my morals and principles.

I intend to learn from everyone and I want to listen, but with an open mind. So from my family and I, we meant no harm to any one group, race or religion of people, and wish to only be a beacon of truth and light.”

What Do We Need to Know About Antisemitism in America? How Do We Look at the Rest of America? A Comment on Irving and Marks

Charles Barkley, a Hall of Famer in the NBA, said he did not believe that Irving was suspended and that it was the league that dropped the ball.

Sean Marks said when asked why Irving had not been disciplined that they were having discussions behind the scenes.

It’s just the beginning, so you have to fix it. It doesn’t end with antisemitism. Until there is no one left to speak up, the group goes on and on, until all the groups are gone.

“Victims are not the ones to cure antisemitism,” he said. “It’s the place in which it’s grown that it must be cured. So, in the case of America, America has permitted antisemitism to grow unabated over a very long time. We have to look at the rest of America to see what is happening. Look at the rot from your core.’ “

Insupport of Irving: After he was suspended from the Nets, West tweeted a picture of the guard and the ADL declines to accept a donation

Kanye West, who has been criticized following antisemitic remarks on social media and in interviews, showed his support for Irving, tweeting a picture of the guard on Thursday.

Last Friday, he told tabloids that his mental health issues had been diagnosed by a Jewish doctor and that he compared it to the Holocaust.

The Nets suspended Irving for a second time on Thursday morning after he changed his mind about sharing the content on his account. Hours later, on his verified account, the NBA star point guard issued an apology, claiming that he takes full accountability for his actions.

The backlash against Irving mounted after he defended his decision to share a link to the 2018 film “Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America” last week. The movie, which is based on a book by Ronald Dalton, has been slammed by civil rights groups for its antisemitic content.

The Nets said they were dismayed when the player refused to say he didn’t have antisemitic beliefs or that there was a specific film that was antisemitic.

Asked if he was surprised by the reaction, Irving said, “I take my full responsibility, again I’ll repeat it, for posting something on my Instagram or Twitter that may have had some unfortunate falsehoods in it,” Irving replied.

He said that if he knew where he comes from, he wouldn’t be antisemitic.

When Jonathan Greenblatt heard about how Irving answered the question, he said that he had a lot of work to do.

After Irving was suspended Thursday, the ADL refused to accept a $500,000 donation that Irving and the Nets had previously announced. The ADL’s decision to decline the donation was before Irving apologized late Thursday.

The antisemitism of the U.S. has been widely condemned by politicians, celebrities, and the adolf Hitler

The United States seems awash in antisemitism, and it isn’t just the usual suspects like the White supremacists and the avowed hatemongers. It appears that it has trickled down from its politicians, as well as from its superstars musicians and athletes.

In the past, the backlash seemed to bring about a brief break in the venom aimed at Jewish people, but it seems like this time around it is only fueling animosity.

Rabbi Jeffrey Myers, who presides over the Tree of Life Congregation in Pittsburgh, where 11 congregants were gunned by a White supremacist four years ago, flatly blamed the country at large.

The team believed taking the path of education in this challenging situation would be the right thing to do, so they waited to take action, according to the Nets front office.

Many politicians in the country do as well. Donald Trump wrote recently that “US Jews have to get their act together and appreciate what they have in Israel before it is too late.”

Many in the Jewish community saw it as a threat, which is understandable when you see how other politicians have espoused troubling views. Jenna Ellis, a top adviser for Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano, said opponent and state Attorney General Josh Shapiro “is at best a secular Jew.” Questioned on this at a news conference, Mastriano let his wife, Rebbie, answer for him, saying, “I’m going to say we probably love Israel more than a lot of Jews do.”

Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake endorsed an antisemitic legislative candidate before rescinding her backing. It’s been widely reported US Senate candidate Mehmet Oz delivered a fundraiser speech in front of Adolf Hitler’s car, on display at a California museum. Millions of immigrants are on the verge of replacing people in jobs, education and culture according to a congressman who has invoked Hitler and the Holocaust.

It smacked of the “great replacement” conspiracy theory, which the Southern Poverty Law Center says, “depends on stoking fears that a nonwhite population, which the theory’s proponents characterize as ‘inferior,’ will displace a white majority. It is also antisemitic. Some people believe there is a plot to replace Jews. Instead, they blame powerful Jewish individuals such as financier and philanthropist George Soros or use coded antisemitic language to identify shadowy ‘elites’ or ‘globalists.’ They called it.

In the past, the Republican Party has decried the comments, and in regards to the accusations of Jews buying political influence in the 19th century, they were emphatic.

In Jacksonville, Florida, the same message crawled across the outside of the stadium hosting the Georgia-Florida college football game and across a building in the city. Banners were hung over interstate 10 in Jacksonville that said, “End Jewish supremacy in America” and “Honk if you know it’s the Jews.”

The consequences should be surprise to no one, as celebrities can spout antisemitic vitriol and fail to accept responsibility, said the ADL Southeast regional director.

The ADL reported on David DePape’s writings in August, which included depictions of antisemitism, Holocaust denial, Islamophobia, white supremacist language and misogyny.
