Marc in Calif Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 By Adam Kovac February 23, 2023 Several police departments around the United States are warning Jews of extremist groups planning a “Day of Hate” for Saturday. https://forward.com/fast-forward/537473/jewish-communities-white-supremacists-feb-25-day-of-hate-nypd/ The NYPD Intelligence and Counterterrorism bureau said the cautionary message is being circulated due to social media posts and video “instructing likeminded individuals to drop banners, place stickers and flyers, or scrawl graffiti” targeting Jews. They added that at least one person has disseminated a message encouraging these acts of hate to be recorded. In the warning, the NYPD advised officers to maintain “elevated situational awareness” on Saturday, particularly at locations that “might garner higher interest from these types of actors.” Oren Segal, vice president of the Anti-Defamation League’s Center on Extremism, said his group learned of the Day of Hate several weeks ago while monitoring of several extremist groups’ social media and communications channels. He said a variety of groups have signed on, including the Goyim Defense League, which has taken part in some highly visible acts of antisemitic propaganda and was cited by the suspect in last week’s shootings of two Los Angeles Jews. But other groups large and small have also posted about the Day of Hate, he said. “It’s essentially a hodgepodge of white supremacist organizations, many of which engage in on-the-ground activity like flyer distribution, banners, protests, that sort of thing.” ............................... stevenkesslar 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
