America is in the bullseye July 2024 NEWSLETTER Who We Are Our Mission Pro-Hamas Students occupying the grounds of Columbia University, 04.18.24 In this month's newsletter, we explore the dangerous alliance between the radical left and Islamists. Despite profound ideological differences, these two radical factions have coalesced, intertwined, and conjoined over the past decade. Driven by a shared hatred towards Western culture and values, the “Islamo-Leftist Alliance” threatens not only Israel and the Jewish people, but all of western civilization. In our most recent article, published in inFOCUS Magazine, titled "The Islamo-Leftist Alliance: Threatening Jews and the US we highlight how this unlikely alliance manifests in both expression and action to promote antisemitism, target Jewish communities, and undermine Western institutions. In addition to explaining the dangers of this alliance, the article offers a path forward. We need a united front to counter extremism and safeguard America against this threat. Our second article, written seven years ago - in 2017, details how and why the radical left, joined radical Islamists, despite fundamental differences in values. The article includes examples of this paradox. People like Linda Sarsour, who despite advocating for feminist causes, simultaneously praise Sharia law, a notorious misogynist philosophy. The article includes early warnings about the normalization of antisemitism within leftist circles, particularly on college campuses. Written seven years ago, the implications of this trend were notable then. Today, the evidence of our warnings is obvious. The future for America and Jewish communities globally must confront this radical alliance. These two articles, written seven years apart, exemplify a hard truth. This unholy alliance, has been metastasizing for years. Today, the fruits of this partnership are seen on college campuses and within cities across America. We knew this was coming. Now we must fight back even harder than before. If you're interested in partnering with us to fight antisemitism, support the State of Israel, and protect American democracy, we would love to hear from you. Lastly, we invite you to learn about The Lawfare Project, a leading global organization providing pro-bono legal services to enforce the civil and human rights of the Jewish people.

The Islamo-Leftist Alliance: Threatening Jews and the US This article was originally published in inFocus Magazine, on June 26th, 2024, written by Adam Milstein. "The confluence of radical Islamic ideologies and extreme leftist orthodoxy, often referred to as the “Islamo-leftist alliance,” represents a paradoxical yet potent coalition united by a shared animosity toward Israel, Jews, and the values underpinning Western democracy. Part of this alliance, the Palestinian wing of the global Muslim Brotherhood, murdered 1,300 Israelis on October 7. Since then, American leftists wear keffiyehs, set up encampments across American universities, and openly endorse the murder of Jews. The alliance uses the pulpit in Tehran to condemn the “Zionist regime” and the bullhorn to shout “**** the Police” across American cities. Understanding this odd, yet burgeoning partnership and the threat it poses is crucial for all who value freedom, democracy, and human rights.

Radical Muslims stone women, execute gays, trample on minority and human rights and abhor feminism. On paper, the far Left should be appalled by this ideology, but these unlikely allies happily cast aside their differences because they share common hatred for Western influence, pluralistic nationalism, freedom of speech, tolerance, and vile antisemitism. The growth of this alliance and the mainstreaming of antisemitic leftism – especially on college campuses – threatens not only our way of life in America but the future of the Jewish People around the world.” Read More Spotlight Organization The Lawfare Project (LP) is the leading global organization providing pro bono legal services to enforce the civil and human rights of the Jewish people. Over the past 9 years, they have undertaken more than 140 legal actions in the United States and abroad to fight Jew-hatred and discrimination on campuses, in the workplace, and in commerce (e.g., BDS boycotts).

Their impactful litigation not only secures justice for individual clients but also drives systemic change benefiting the broader Jewish community.
