In Colorado on Sunday, a man shouting, “Free Palestine!” attacked a Jewish gathering and set elderly victims on fire. Eleven days earlier, another man shouting, “Free Palestine!” executed a young couple in cold blood as they were leaving a Jewish event in Washington, D.C.
Americans are asking: Does this mean the slogan “Globalize the Intifada” is coming true?
Our answer: “Globalize the Intifada” has long since come true. And now it’s coming to America.
The world often associates the Intifada with the Israel-Palestine conflict. But the same ideology also targets Hindus, Nigerian Christians, other Africans, Yazidis, Druze Arabs, Alawite and Ahmadiyya Muslims, Kurds, Copts, Maronites, Assyrians, Amazigh, Iranians, Sikhs, Samaritans, Baha’is, Armenians, and so many others. And that ideology is gaining a disturbing level of influence in Western societies.
The victims of the Globalized Intifada are a natural coalition that’s waiting to happen. And it will happen once we all realize how each of our conflicts is connected.
The horrific massacre in India in April, where 24 Hindus and one Christian were murdered by Islamists in Pahalgam, Kashmir, gave many Jews flashbacks to Oct. 7, 2023. It wasn’t just because of how cruelly the victims were slaughtered. It was because the immediate reaction in some quarters was to demonize the victims.
