Cancel Culture & George Orwell
Dear Editor:
As tearing down monuments and statues, rewriting history and changing names of buildings named after historic figures, critical race theory, NY Times project 1619 continues under the growing cancel culture, it reminds me of George Orwell who said “Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” His vision of 1984 may soon become today’s reality.

Betty Boop McCollum Still Suffering from IsraelaPhobia
Dear Editor:
Betty McCollum (D-MN) is still suffering from IsraelaPhobia. She caught this Bug years ago when she began obsessively instigating anti Israel legislation. Her previous gig was US House Bill, “Promoting Human Rights for Palestinian Children Living Under Israeli Military Occupation Act”, which seeks to protect, are you sitting down, Palestinian children from Israelis!!!
Now she’s at it again with “Defending the Human Rights of Palestinian Children and Families Living Under Israeli Military Occupation Act” had 13 additional co-sponsors, including Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Bobby Rush (D-IL), Danny Davis (D-IL), Andre Carson (D-IN), Marie Newman (D-IL) and Ilhan Omar (D-MN), a spokesperson for McCollum told The Algemeiner.” McCollum said, “Israel has been strategically expanding settlements, committing flagrant violations of human rights against Palestinian children and families, and aggressively undermining any prospects for a Palestinian state,” Jewish Insider reported.
So what are the facts she ignores? “A televised video is available for anyone to see of Palestinian children dressed like suicide bombers, and those the from the age of 14 preparing for suicide attacks, wishing farewell to their beaming parents.” “An estimated 10,000 children are trained in Hamas’ terrorist camps each year; at least 160 have died digging terror tunnels into Israel. A group of NGOs formed, “The Coalition to Save Palestinian Child Soldiers, urging the public to sign an open letter to child welfare advocates condemning the use of Palestinian children as soldiers. For decades, Palestinian children ‘have fulfilled the role of combatants, human shields, rioters, laborers,and suicide bombers.”
Congresswoman McCollum’s remarkable resume also includes her silence about the Muslim-on-Muslim child abuse of Afghani children made into sex slaves by Taliban warlords, the abused offspring of Yazidi women raped by ISIS’ Caliphate in Iraq and Syria, child soldiers in Africa, not to mention the repeated very fair Israeli peace offers, all rejected by these Arabs who never, ever once even made a counter offer, but instead walked out on negotiations.
Let us wish McCollum a speedy recovery from her IsraelaPhobia before she harms more ‘Palestinian’ children by falsely blaming Israel instead of protecting them from the real abusers—Arab adults, parents and leaders who use them as human weapons, teach them to kill themselves and Jews as an act of holy martyrdom, who hate Israel more than they love their children.

SF Teachers Union Diversifies into Landlord Disputes Abroad
Dear Editor:
Why didn’t someone tell me? I had no idea the teachers union of San Francisco branched out into landlord disputes overseas. And into the boycott of only Israel. “As public school educators in the USA, we have a special responsibility to stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people because of the 3.8 billion dollars annually that the U.S. government gives to Israel, thus directly using our tax dollars to fund apartheid and war crimes,” the union said in a resolution that it passed…and call for Israel to end bombardment of Gaza and stop displacement at Sheikh Jarrah.”
They only cite funds given to the Jewish state but never mention funds we give to any other country, such as Somlia where almost all girls and women undergo forced female genital mutilation. Not a word protesting the Islamic Republic of Iran who funds Hamas, whose leaders openly call for the killing of Jews “wherever you find them.” And silence about Hamas’ use of adults and children as human shields, Hamas who runs Gaza like a prison, instead of building communities of peace and prosperity.
I thought teachers were supposed to research facts before they speak? But when a teachers union becomes a Cult of Israel Hate, facts are the first to go. A homework assignment: read the irrefutable hard data below, then issue your mea culpa to the children, to the adults who pay you to teach, to all of us.
This former teachers union, turned Cult of Israel Hate, told Israel to stop defending itself, never mentions the Hamas rockets which misfired and ended up striking Gaza. I would highly recommend they visit Gaza, protest an apartment dispute and tell us all about their fun democratic experience under Hamas’ Islamic terrorist rule vs. the democracy in Israel which extends court access, full legal and civil rights to Arabs, to all. Yes, to all.
If this is the level of putrid moral bankruptcy from our children’s teachers who want us to believe they are indignant, would-be humanitarians, then we should all just go to the Gulag voluntarily, to get away from the slime of their ignorant bigotry.

UFO Sightings-We Can Only Hope!
Dear Editor:
The Pentagon now admits there’s “something out there”, for-real, as yet unidentified UFO’s. At the risk of sounding wacky, I for one, would welcome a landing of alien beings. Perhaps they could teleport to their own planet, Islamic Jihad Hamas, their rockets firing on Israeli citizens, funded by the Islamic Republic of Iran, the Arab, Muslim, so called ‘Palestinian” Hezbollah Jihad terrorists, and all other genocidal Jew haters. And maybe since there are no infidels or Jews to kill on this planet, they’ll actually put their energy and resources into building communities of peace and make even one contribution to humankind.
For those who still think it’s “just” about the Jews, think again. Islamic Jihad begins with the Jews and ends with all infidels…and that means you. For those who still think it’s about land, why has there been not even one counter offer for peace, why have they rejected every single fair peace offer, why have they walked out of every negotiation, why do they say “we will never accept a Jewish state in our midst.” If the genocidal Hamas Jew hate was against Blacks or Hispanics or Gays or Muslims, the world would be up in arms. When it comes to Jews, it’s blame-the-victim time, peace and love for all, except for the Jews. Let’s spread a welcome mat for the alien beings. I am hoping they have some common sense. We surely do not.
Sincerely
Juanita Menendez
