The mainstream media was largely silent on the mob and its death threats. FoxLA 11 reported it as part of its story on Presidentish Joe Biden's fundraising sweep through Los Angeles. The Los Angeles Daily News gave it a brief mention way down in the 16th paragraph of a similar report on Biden's trip.
To be fair, a similar mob of between 1,200 and 1,500 people showed up at Biden's Holmby Hills fundraiser with chants of "Free Gaza" and "Ceasefire now." They even accused Biden and his donors of supporting Israeli "genocide" against Gaza Arabs. There were about 1.5 million Muslim Arabs in the Gaza Strip when Israel unilaterally left the region in 2005. There are more than 2 million there today, and Gaza women have one of the highest fertility rates in the world.

Some genocide, eh?
"Literally, I believe, the future of American democracy is at stake," Biden said during his fundraising speech in reference to Donald Trump. "We will be one of those generations that can say, 'We saved democracy."'
That he said all that while a Nazi-like mob chanted outside is an irony too rich for fiction -- it's an absurdity that could only happen in reality.

L.A. -- as Jews were lighting candles last night for Shabbat and the second night of Hanukkah, mobs of antisemites took to the streets to chant antisemitic slogans and graffiti buildings, including Synagogues.
This particular location is the epicenter of Persian Jewish life on the Wilshire corridor.
Parents and grandparents are hearing the same Jewish death chants they heard during the Iranian Islamic Revolution some 44 years ago forcing them to flee their homes of 2000+ years.
Meanwhile, 50% of younger "Americans" believe the Holocaust is or may be exaggerated -- or even "a myth."
A new YouGov/Economist poll reveals that over 20% of Americans aged 18-29 believe the Holocaust is a "myth" or "has been exaggerated." An additional 30% report being ambivalent about whether the 20th-century genocide is a "myth".
"Young people are nearly five times more likely to think this than those aged 65 and older (28% versus 6%)," The Economist reports.

Marschall has argued previously in Campus Reform that leftist activism in higher education embraces anti-intellectualism to supplant feelings for facts and logic in classroom discussions, assignments, and scholarly work. This trend, he contends, targets Jews and their history, which fuels anti-Semitism in academia.
"The greatest scam coming out of higher education and affecting the rest of American culture is the idea that 'lived experience' can substitute for scholarly intellect," Marschall wrote in December 2022. "It should occur to more people that they might be factually wrong about things they feel."
Perhaps significantly, nearly the same proportion of American college students (32%) believe that the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attack was "justified" as the number of 18-29-year-old Americans who wonder if the Holocaust is made up.
The repulsive left will use this fact, as it uses all facts, as a justification for attacking its political enemies, claiming that it's the right which is responsible for Holocaust denial.
But it's not the right which has the most control over the minds of the young. And it's not the right which is convincing the young that terrorist murders of Israelis are justified because they're "White Oppressors."
It's not the right which has given little terrorists-in-training on campuses carte blanche to go full intifada.
Jake Tapper and the rest of the Cancel Pigs at CNN, NBC, the Washington Post, the New York Times, and NewsGuard will use polls like this to go after their bete noir, Twitter -- ignoring the fact that the platform which featured a viral explosion of (largely black) influencers reading from and praising Osama bin Ladin's letters justifying terrorism was TikTok.
Meanwhile: You know who the real victims of "antisemitism" are, don't you?
