Henry Herskovitz and a group of anti-Zionist, mostly Jewish protestors, were sued for picketing a Zionist synagogue in Ann Arbor, Michigan, to force them to keep back 1,000 feet (the distance of three football fields) from the synagogue.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit rejected the lawsuit. Supreme Court review was requested and denied.
The Jewish protesters demanded that the synagogue plaintiffs reimburse their legal fees in the amount of $158,721.75. The Sixth Circuit has ordered the reimbursement.
The media don't report that the protestors who carried signs in front of the synagogue week after week reading, "Stop Funding Israel," "Open Borders for Israel" and "End the Palestinian Holocaust," are themselves Jewish.
Nathan Lewin, a lawyer for one of the plaintiffs, claims the human rights activists had "condemned the Jewish people." There's no evidence for Lewin's hysterical hyperbole, which is a familiar trope employed by anti-Palestinian hatemongers.
Nathan Lewin’s letter appears in the October 5, 2023 issue of the Wall Street Journal. (Mr. Herskovitz is holding the sign in the photo in the Journal ). Click on the link.
Harbor, lol. I used to talk to a nice old jewish lady that was protesting at that same location 20+ years ago. I think that is the synagogue that was targeted by an 'anti-semitic' bomb threat that turned out to be a jewish israeli teen that repeated it all across the USA.
I wouldn't think all Jewish people are physical zionists.
No but the media needs the sheep to continue thinking that Jews are a single monolithic block.
You are correct..... and whilst being so, they are to sit in the back of the bus with their mouths shut.
110th time can't come soon enough.
Just like every other country, even Israel has the division between the patriots (in our sense of the word) and Globalists (zionists).
