Back home and there. If somebody had said after they lost the first game
of the Phillies they'd win two of the next three, you would say that's
pretty good. So the Reds are doing magnificently in Fraego compared to what's happened
in years past. But until then, of course, Leland vidits with News
Nation is one of the stars Money through Friday in the Evening and Leland Videt
welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And Leland, I've watched some of
your coverage recently about the funding of these Hamas protests over most major college campuses,
especially in New York City. And if someone had told me that in
New York City, where Jews have made such unbelievable contributions to the culture,
to the finance of life in New York City, I would not have believed
it. But you've done some research to indicate that possibly there's a funding source
that might thread its way through Black Lives Matter and TIFA Occupy Wall Street.
Now Hamas, can you explain that to the American people? All the same
philosophy, right, the same neo Marxist ideology that was Occupy Wall Street,
that is BLM that is now the pro Palestine, anti Israel, anti Semitism
movement. One of the leaders, for example, at Columbia started as a
BLM organizer in twenty twenty one, and we followed him through. This is
a guy who talks about how he hates white people. Then he talked about
how all Zionish are supposed to die, and then you look on his Twitter
page and it says that he's anti capitalist, anti imperialist, which is a
resistance code for America in the West. So their ideology is pretty clear.
Who is funding these folks. New York Post says reporting out that it's Soros
backed groups that are funding a lot of this, which you know, there's
a rich irony there. And to be fair, you know there were there
were Jews who supported the Nazis. The Nazi pop Party came to rise in
Germany right right up until the point that the Gestapo arrested them all, So
that does exist. My warning would be twofold one is the irony that we've
always been told that anti Semitism and hatred and everything else was coming really in
terms of a threat from the right, much more from the left. But
the anti Semitism, the jew hatred, the calling for the murder of Jesus.
That's really the beginning and a vessel for this ideology. And BLM tried
it in twenty twenty and in twenty twenty one to bring the neo Marxist ideology
and brought it onto college campuses through what is a otherwise meaningful and important conversation
black lives matter. They didn't care about black lives any people don't care about
the Palestinians either. This is this is a vessel for their ideology and to
try to organize around so the unwashed college kids, many self indulgent rich kids,
generally Columbia. A friend of mine has a son there about seventy five
thousand dollars a year. Every year he's going to spend three hundred thousand dollars
in this education. And your reporting seems to indicate this group called Students for
Justice in Palestine, the SJP parent organizations funded by George Soros, the billionaire
serious money. How about? The group provides eight hundred dollars for its community
based fellows in between three and four thousand dollars for campus based and fellows in
return for spending eight hours a week organizing campaigns led by Palestinian organizations. And
so what they do is locate leaders or transplant the leaders of this left wing
socialist Marxist organization on the major college campuses. The kids are milling around without
much to do. They couldn't identify Israel a Gaza on a map, and
so these individuals rile them up against the Jews, and then George Soros provides
serious thousands of dollars in each college campus to shut it down. Can you've
been at this a long time? Well, what's the goal George Soros at
SAI or his left wing groups chaos, whether it's George Floyd and Tafa,
Black Lives Matter, Occupy Wall Street, hamas Palestinians long term goal? George
Soros is almost ninety years old, but his sons are now involved, and
they might be more leftist and Marxist than George. What's the automate goal?
Just to destroy this country from within and we collapse on ourselves. The stated
goal is to destroy the western liberal ideology, and liberal has taken on for
some to meet, you know, to be a derby word. Well,
the liberal ideas are what built America right. A liberal idea is free speech
a liberal idea is that our rights come from God, not from man.
Liberal idea is that you have the power to speak out against the government.
These are all liberal ideas and that is what they in the end seek to
destroy. Capitalism is a liberal idea, you know, the idea that this
social mobility is a liberal idea. All of these Western ideals that we believe
self evident essentially are are at risk when these organizations take root. And I
would add to that, you know, this funding goes a little bit deeper,
right because you look at these protests and you see all the tents are
the same color, exact same tents. Well, okay, that doesn't happen
by accident. All the food that's coming in the funding. I'm sitting here
watching and this is based on my time in the moles. But there's guys
with Hamas sweatshirts. There's guys with hesbal Off lags. You don't over You
don't go down to your local seven eleven and buy a hesbeal offlag. No,
right, these things come from different places. And I understand what you
say. You know, hey, a bunch of kids are milling around.
They have no idea, you know, their board somebody offers them a free
doughnut and they go chant from the river to the sea. Fine, if
at some level college kids have been known to do odd things. But at
this point, when you see the signs and you read the signs now that
are up, and you hear the chance, and you hear what's being said,
it becomes increasingly difficult to dismiss these people as just misguided college kids.
You know, I always sort of think of the opposite, Right, if
there were a bunch of clan rallies on college campuses around the country, right,
Okay, we wouldn't be going. Well, I'm sure there are some
kids who, you know, they're just interested in educating rule whites. That's
really their concern. They don't believe all the hateful stuff speariment. It wouldn't
work that way, and some of the and so News Nation does it.
But why doesn't the so called quote legitimate media go after the funding of these
individuals. Many times in the story in New York Post, also in News
Nation, you have the photos of the individuals leading these protests. Pizzas are
delivered, bail bond projects are set up. You have elan Omar her daughter,
as I guess temporarily kicked out of Columbia, she's like a hero.
Did the students know they're being played? Do the students know that they're just
useful idiots in this national march to destroy America through the capturing the minds of
our young kids. Do the actual college kids know that they're clowns or do
they think they're involved in something greater than themselves? Well, they probably think
they're involved in something greater themselves and they're bored. And to a larger extent
though, two points on that one from a media standpoint, they're just not
covering it. Right. We pulled up the front pages of ABCNBC, I
believe CBS yesterday there wasn't a mention of this. Okay, so that is
one part of it, you know, the liberal ideology is becoming inherently illiberal.
But the second point is this isn't just the students. My alma mater,
Northwestern professors formed chain around the protesters, were anting deeply anti semitic chance
they surrounded the protesters to protect the protesters from the police. Okay, so
this is the faculty too. The faculty of these schools is giving kids time
off to protest at Colombia. They're obviously not throwing any of these kids off
campus. So to just say, oh, this is just kids. No,
I'm old enough to remember when silence was violence, right, And this
isn't even silenced by the administration. This is willful aiding and embedding their behavior.
And that at a different level, I think than we've seen before.
I have a couple quotes here from tenured professors at Columbia. One of them,
his first name is Hakamud, says that wherever there's terror in the world,
you will find the Jew. Whenever there's someone being starved to death,
you'll find the Jew. Whenever you see a holocaust occurring, you will find
the And so when you talk about professors at Northwestern and talk about professors at
Columbia, these are the elite professors. And these aren't at some trade school,
This isn't at my alma maters Avia University. That these are the elite
jobs paying two to three hundred thousand a year, not teaching, but essentially
indoctrinating the kids. And so, how is it possible in New York City
you can have large numbers of college professors with anti Jewish hate phrases being thrown
around, and the president and the board of trustees knows it going on.
In fact, one of the worst examples he was hired in January of this
year and he was virulently anti Semitic, a Jew hating Muslim Islamist. And
I would add again, I say this every time I say this, Leland
Vitterck that I live a little Cincinnati, Ohio, and in America there's about
four to five million Muslims who have nothing to do with the terror on the
left. Fact, there's one e mom that I mentioned a few days ago
in Dearborn who confronted those who are saying kill the Jews, kill Americans,
and this mom stood up against that hate speech. But it is acceptable to
use hate speech on college campuses today as long as the object is a Jew.
How's that possible? These professors can get hired by those like Robert Kraft,
who's on the board, was on the board of Columbia, that Jews
dominate the board, and Jews dominate many of the top positions in Columbia,
New York University, whatever it might be, I would assume Northwestern, but
they turn a blind eye to the hate that comes out of their own campus.
I would go once and further, not only do they turn a blind
eye to it, but they are unwilling to deal with the root cause right,
which is an illiberal ideology that has come through college campuses. And they
are more interested in being accepted and being invited to the right parties and seen
as part of the liberal elite and uh, you know, thought well of
by mourning Joe, than they are about standing up for what is right.
And I would I would issue this warning. It starts with the Jews,
it never ends there, and that the you know it started with you know,
this is not an anti Semitic movement. This is an anti American movement
that started with Occupy Wall Street, went through BLM and now is using quote
unquote Palestine as that same vessel. And that the hatred towards Jews is what
is currently being allowed now. Obviously the rhetoric since BLM has gotten ramped up,
but they're they're saying the thing that BLM was always deeply anti Semitic,
the irony right and the true irony. I'm glad you brought the mom in
Detroit one. Yes, he much more likely to be harmed by fellow Muslims
than he is by any Jews for anybody else. So the dirty little secret
of the Middle East is you don't see any pro Hamas protests in the Middle
East because that world knows what Hamas does, that world knows what the Muslim
brotherhood does. So I think there's a real point to be made here that
if you are truly pro Palestinian, and we've said this a bunch on air,
for truly pro Palestinian, you're not anti Israel, you're anti Hamas.
And that's not what's being said, that's not what's being discussed. All it
is resistance, resistance, resistance aka kill the Jews, Kill the Jews,
kill the Jews. This is amazing. And one of the things the useful
idiots manipulated by the Soros crowd have signs that say I can use the word
queers for Hamas well. I thought queer was a pejorative term. It is
not. And I guess those who hold such signs are completely oblivious to what
happens to homosexuals or gay men or women. And almost all of the Middle
East, you're handcuffed and thrown off the top of buildings, are set on
fire. And so it's like explain that how that that doesn't make any sense
at all. No, it doesn't, it doesn't. And there's a lot
of this that doesn't make any sense. And I think if you you sat
there and talked to any of not any a lot of these kids, and
so tell me, you know where is Palestine? Right? When? When?
When was Palestine? What was the language of Palestine? What's the currency
of Palestine? On and on? They wouldn't know. But it doesn't exist,
and they don't know that it doesn't exist, and on and on and
on, and there's some there's some clips going around about that. What I
what bothers me is the willingness to then go, oh, well, these
kids are just misguided. No, and I go back to if if you
were, if you're at a clan rally, this is it's not a pro
white rule, white education rally. It's it's a racist, anti black,
terrible thing. Okay. So so I don't understand, And look, I
think about it every day when it's this pro Palestine rally or pro Palestinian rally.
No, it's not. It doesn't have any do it to Palestinians.
And we know that because they're actually not demonstrating against the people who are throwing
Palestinians off buildings and stealing their aid and imprisoning them and killing them. No,
it's so no great point. I would I would, I would say
we have moved and it looks is dangerous. Anti Semitism is and is personal
of an issue as it is to me. We've moved past that. Yes,
these are all antisemitic. This, this is all. This has gone
beyond antisemitism to Jew hatred and calling for the murder of Jews. But there's
a deeper ideology here upon which that is the vessel. And I think that's
the story the so called legacy media doesn't want to touch because it reflects so
poorly upon the education system that we have and the fact that our freedoms have
been weaponized against us by groups international. I loved your analogy. In the
nineteen thirties, there were Jews for Nazis until they came for them after Crystal
Night, and then oh my god, look what have we got here?
And right now there are college presidents, boards of trustees and others that have
to tow the company line, which is hate the Jew. But ultimately they
will come for them too. And the fact that could happen in this country.
If somebody had told me this here or two ago, I wouldn't have
believed it because I practiced law for twenty years in a Jewish law firm,
and I love the cultural awareness that alerted me to various events in the Jewish
community in Cincinnati, which is very alive and very vibrant, and I thought,
this is great, man, we're over the hump. Well, guess
what, We're not over the hump. And I like to see the FBI,
the Department of Justice go after these funding of these groups and say these
are real criminal activities that have real consequences. And right now Jews may be
beaten. The next one some car out of control to kill a bunch of
them, and at that point, God knows what's going to happen, and
this movement will metastasize them in some other way. But Leland Vender, once
again, I'll be watching the News Nation Monday through Friday, seven o'clock on.
And thanks for putting a sharper point on this. So what's happening?
And once again, thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. And
good luck, Leland Vitter, Thank you very much. Godluck though well let's
continue. Well, there it is. What if the FBI, the CIA,
the Department of Justice did not care about paperwork mistakes and spent millions and
millions of dollars in thousands of hours holding responsible these international leftist Marxist movements that
are destroying college campuses. Wouldn't that be interesting? Let's continue with more Bill
Cunningham, Home of Your Reds and News Radio seven hundred WLW. We're here
with David Cooper, vice president of Genesis Diamonds. David, we're familiar with
iconic brands. Are there designers for engagement rings?
