No, Antisemitism and "Islamaphobia" are NOT The Same!

After weeks of silence, Biden finally gave a 5-minute speech that I'm scared the campus Nazis into halting their violent nationwide anti-Israel protests

Biden on campus protesters: No 'right to cause chaos'

"President Biden defended students' right to protest peacefully during a speech Thursday, but condemned the "chaos" that has broken out on campuses nationwide amid protests against the Israel-Hamas war.

"'Let me be clear, ... violent protest is not protected. Peaceful protest is. It's against the law when violence occurs, destroying property is not a peaceful protest. It's against the law,' Biden said.

"'There is no place for hate speech or violence of any kind, whether it's antisemitism, Islamophobia or discrimination against Arab-Americans or Palestinian-Americans. It's simply wrong,' Biden said."

HE's wrong. His speech accomplished nothing.  These campus terrorists are anti-Jewish and anti-Israel.  There's no such thing as "Islamophobia" -- that term is used to help minimize antisemitism and to portray Muslims as victims.  Every time a liberal mentions "Islamophobia" in the same  breath with antisemitism, it immediately downplays the trauma of centuries of Jew-hatred, pogroms, the Holocaust, and October 7.

A normal reaction after the Marine barracks, the USS Cole, the Khobar Towers, Leon Klinghoffer, September 11, October 7, and other atrocities was to hate the Arab terrorists who perpetrated the death and destruction. That is a normal reaction not a "phobia".

I don't see mobs of students holding up anti-Arab signs on campus or blocking Arab students from going to class, blocking bridges and highways, and calling for Muslims to be gassed

So if you can't speak out solely against Jew-hatred, then you're better off not speaking out at all.
