Supporting terror in NH?

Future "youth" of America?

I find this story from Foster’s rather disturbing:

Protestors gather to oppose Gaza violence

DOVER — Nur Shoop displayed what was one of the simplest, yet most forceful signs during a protest Saturday against the violence on the Gaza Strip as Israel and Hamas engage in an armed conflict.

Her sign, as she stood on the traffic island at Lower Square in the downtown area, simply read "Gaza." Around the word were children’s handprints, all in red, symbolizing the innocent lives that Shoop said are most deeply affected by the violence.

"Usually children are the ones in warzones suffering the most," said Shoop, of Kittery, Maine.

"They’re terrorizing every child in Gaza," said 58-year-old Burt Cohen, a "spiritually" Jewish man from Newcastle.

He displayed a sign that read, "Jews Outraged by Israel," and said the violence going on in the hotly contested area of the middle east is "counterproductive" to what it means to be Jewish.

Talk about clueless. Were these people standing in the cold to protest the daily rocket barrage into Israel’s civilian areas? Do they not know that Hamas is one of the most murderous terror groups on the planet? Do they not know that most Palestinians are taught from a young age to hate the Jews and that Israel must be wiped from the map? Is "being Jewish" simply sitting back and watch those sworn to your country’s destruction act unanswered? Burt Cohen should get the crap out of his ears and LISTEN to the truth for a change. Who knows, he might learn something.

Seacoast Peace Response organized the demonstration, which saw more than 30 people gather at the corner of Central Avenue and Washington Street to speak out against the violence. Many cars that passed by honked their horns in support.

A contingent of high school students who are part of Durham Students for a Democratic Society also took part in the demonstration and were as fervent as the adults in proclaiming the need to end the violence.

It’s too bad they don’t actually find out the truth before they speak out. And perhaps more distressing is the many passing cars that honked their horn in support. What is happening? How can Americans get this so wrong? And why isn’t anybody speaking out on the side of right?

Thankfully, there is. This coming Sunday’s anti-Israeli, pro-terrorist demonstration, coincidentally held adjacent to UNH in Durham Center, will feature a group of individual people wishing to set the record straight– and everyone reading this is invited. Here’s the details, as received via our friend Sue, from fellow Pease Greeter Jack:

I want to provide an explanation as to what has been going on in our country these past few weeks.  As I explained last night, after Greeting the Troops, I have found out that there have been very large Pro Hamas, Anti Israili Rallies all over our country.  Some of them turned violent.  You can see for yourselves by going to www.youtube.com and entering the following in the Search section:  "Pro Hamas Demonstrations USA" or "Anti Iraeli Demonstrations USA" and watch this madness for yourselves. 

The key point here is that we now have an element in this country that is not afraid to demonstrate their Anti Americanism as well as their support for terrorist organizations such as Hamas. 

This is the kind of stuff that our kids are learning in US colleges all over the country and it cannot go unchallanged. 

We have the responsibility to fight the good fight at home while our wonderful troops are fighting the other fight, overseas.  Imagine what they must think when they see this garbage going on in our own country.  What they really need to see is that we are doing something abut it.  So, if any of you have video cameras, please bring them a take some video of our group during the counter rally and get it up on YouTube.

Jack then sends the plea:

Please send this out to your entire e-mail list because I’m sure they will want to participate in this. 

So, once again, the counter demonstration rally should take place in Durham Center from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM this coming Sunday.

If I can see my way clear, I will head to Durham as well. If good Americans stand by and let these uninformed fools take to the streets and continue to misinform our schoolchildren and college students, at some point, the results might be disastrous for our own country, never mind Israel.
