Description

you must kill at least one jew


Forgive me if I don't link to it. Over 100 people have reported they will attend the event, "Kill a Jew day" on Facebook . And no, don't try and convince me its all in jest. Anti-Semitism is no joke.
According to the JTA, Anti-Semitic incidents around the world more than doubled in 2009 over the previous year. The record number of incidents -- cases that show clear anti-Semitic content and intention -- included 566 incidents of vandalism of Jewish property, which constituted 49 percent of all incidents. Hundreds of incidents against Jewish people and property did not meet the criteria. Many other incidents went unreported.

Perhaps if enough people report this page it will be shut down, as a direct incitement to violence. If that happens, expect Jewish Voice for Peace to claim that the voices of the people have been muzzled by the Zionist lobby.

UPDATE: The Jewish Internet Defense Force reports that 240,000 people received notice of this story as the result of action alert they initiated , and the offending event was removed in hours.

Hi,

Originally, this was an ACTION ALERT on the JIDF site:

http://www.thejidf.org/2010/07/action-alert-report-kill-jew-day-event.html - which went out to over 240,000 people.

We've already announced that our action alert, was successful. And have provided important backstory:

Thank you.

This clarifies the barely hidden intent of the Israel Haters. Isn't it ALWAYS "kill a Jew" day to these folks?

Did anyone check to see if Jeff Prager was a member of this group?
Holocaust denial and Jew hatred generally go hand in hand
