I have forwarded a petition and signatures and comments to the Jewish and Pro Israel organizations listed below, and to more, get together if needed and finally concretely insist the Obama administration do more than EQUAL BLAME or Mere Condemnation of Palestinian Incitement while the US annually sends hundreds of millions of dollars to the Palestinian Authority. This has been going on a long time – so the Time Is NOW!Please call these up – it didn’t seem to be enough for me to send a petition with signatures and comments to get a response!

The ZOA is always the quickest to react, and are on top of every situation practically 24/7. The ADL has recently, under their new shameful obsequient president, condemned the proposed bill in Israel to have the NGOs who fund the radical Jewish leftists & Palestinians against the State investigated. UJA is busy giving money even to orgs who support BDS.
Where is a R’ Kahana, who would have demonstrated vociferously against these established monied Jewish orgs?
Weisenthal CTR. is a multimillion $$ org., who issue pronouncements now & then.
It’s depressing .We have little leadership, but plenty of machlokes , coupled with the 15 minutes of fame babblers who only mean themselves. Only G-D can help us.
