On November 7, 2024, the world reached a new level of ugly with the advent of the Amsterdam/Tel Aviv soccer game pogrom—yes, you read it correctly—a pogrom! It happened because a global Intifada might be in progress. Let’s start by defining both terms: Pogorm and Intifada.
A pogrom is a government-organized and/or sponsored riot, generally against the Jews. A somewhat “romanticized” version of a pogrom is the story of “Fiddler on the Roof.” My great-grandmother Rachel Schimkowitz left Russia in the late 1880s to escape the pogroms. Back then, it was already a matter of life and death, and as a result, Jews left Eastern Europe for Western Europe, Canada, and America. My family settled down in Paris.
An intifada is a non-military uprising. Some people might call it a civil uprising, but since there is nothing “civil” about an intifada, I prefer the term non-military. There have been two official intifadas in Israel to date. The First Intifada lasted from 1987 to 1993, and the Second from 2000 to 2005. The word means “uprising,” with the implied meaning of rebellion and resistance. It has been linked to the Palestinian cause for the last thirty-five years, pretty much since the First Intifada. It was initially meant to describe a bold but non-violent resistance but has unfortunately morphed over the last few decades to become more aggressive and very violent.
Today’s youth identify with the resistance and social justice aspect of the word’s original meaning but ignore that its etymology has shifted to describe a more violent protest. Additionally, many college students are ignorant of the geo-political situation of the Middle East. They are often being used as pawns by the radical left or radical Islamic organizations to promote their agenda of hatred of Israel and the Jews.
Since October 8, 2023, we have heard the chants “globalize the Intifada. ” To be sure, that motto wasn’t born after Hamas invaded Israel and murdered 1,200 innocent Israelis, but it indeed became more popular. College students all over America and other parts of the world are rallying under the banner of a global intifada. Ignoring the implications, many gather and brandish signs with “From the River to the Sea, Palestine Shall be Free!” Again, ignorance makes the actions very toxic. The motto being chanted is a call for the complete destruction of Israel, something that many youngsters have no clue about. Unfortunately, they end up being used by the real antisemites who are ready to kill Jews in 2024. […]
