Rep. Greg Landsman discussed connections between anti-Semitic attacks linked to recent incidents in Boulder and Washington, D.C. He emphasized phrases like 'Free Palestine' and 'Zionism,' explaining that the latter represents Jewish self-determination. Landsman warned against viewing these slogans in isolation, asserting that some interpretations lead to anti-Semitic threats and the glorification of violence against Jews. He elaborated on the history of the intifada and the implications of these protests on Jewish safety and identity, underlining the necessity to recognize the dangers inherent in such rhetoric.
To say you can't have that [self-determination] is anti-Semitic. Also to say, 'I'm gonna end Zionists', that is a threat to kill Jews.
The second has to do with the global intifada. The intifada, there were two, included, included, wasn't limited to, but included suicide bombings and killing of Jews.
