California: Hamas Gets a Pass, Jewish Community Members Get Charged

Democrat states are not safe for Jews.

US City Charges 2 Jews who Fought Back Against Hamas Riots on Campus

Hamas supporters get a pass. Jewish community members get charged.

During the UCLA Hamas riots, it was routine for the terrorist supporters to mace and assault Jewish community members and students. And for campus security to refuse to intervene, take down evidence or call the police.

The media covered up the situation.

And even those who were actually arrested after weeks of this are getting a pass.

“The City Attorney’s Office received over 300 referrals from arrests made during the mass protests on the campuses of UCLA and USC in April and May, 2024, and declined to file criminal charges on most of the referrals.” Three others will be referred to informal prosecutorial proceedings.

Not 300 arrests, but 300 referrals from arrests. And even those arrests are only the tip of the iceberg.
But it gets better. The only two people charged are the Jewish targets of the pro-Hamas mobs.

The vast majority of pro-Hamas perpetrators have their cases dropped.

CAIR is cheering the move which should tell you everything.

Three, including a fellow named ‘Ali Abuamouneh’ are being routed to ‘diversion’ hearings. Only Edan On and Matthew Katz, Jewish community members who fought back against the Hamas mobs, are being charged.

“After careful consideration, we are filing criminal charges against two individuals and sending three others to City Attorney Hearings,” said Hydee Feldstein Soto, Los Angeles City Attorney. “I want to thank the attorneys in my Criminal Branch for their dedication to the rule of law and their commitment to objectively evaluating the evidence and referrals received on each of these matters.”

Giving nearly every pro-Hamas arrestee a pass and charging only Jewish community members demonstrates many things, systemic prejudice, a weaponized justice system and radicals protecting their own… the one thing it does not demonstrate is “objectivity” and “dedication to the rule of law”.

But leftists and Islamists led a campaign to intimidate Hydee Feldstein Soto and they got their way.

The Hamas riots at UCLA really call for a DOJ Civil Rights investigation into cases which have been handled every bit as abominably as anything under Jim Crow.

And Edan On and Matthew Katz should be getting pardons.
