“Rahm Emanuel covered up the murder of my son,” said Dorothy Holmes, mother of Ronald Johnson, who was shot in the back by Chicago police in 2014. “Rahm Emanuel does not deserve to be the ambassador of anything. Rahm Emanuel belongs behind bars.”

On Thursday, more than two dozen victims of police violence in Chicago and their relatives released a joint statement condemning Biden’s reported choice of ambassador, accusing the former two-term mayor and onetime White House chief of staff for President Barack Obama of “contempt for communities of color” during his mayoralty.

Emanuel, the signers wrote, “became a symbol of lethal disrespect for Black lives,” and making him an ambassador “would make the U.S. government a similar symbol.”

“The possibility that Rahm Emanuel will become the U.S. ambassador to Japan is abhorrent to those of us who continue to mourn the loss of our loved ones due to police violence that he aided and abetted as mayor of Chicago,” the letter states. “He showed callous disregard for terrible losses suffered by the families of those who were killed or brutalized by officers of the Chicago Police Department.”

Among the letter’s signatories include Holmes; Emmett Farmer, father of Flint Farmer, who was shot by police three times as he lay on the ground in 2011; and Crista Noël, an activist with Women’s All Points Bulletin, which works to end police violence against women in the city.

Emanuel is a controversial figure in Democratic politics. A former chief of staff to a popular president, with close ties to President Joe Biden, he has enjoyed relationships with many of the party’s most senior members. But his eight-year tenure as mayor of Chicago was riven with scandals over police brutality and allegations of cronyism—particularly relating to the murder of Laquan McDonald in October 2014.

The death of McDonald, a 17-year-old boy who was shot 16 times by a Chicago police officer while he was walking away from the police, led to nationwide protests after dashcam footage showing his death was revealed to the public despite attempts by Emanuel’s administration to prevent its release. Pointing to the footage’s burial until after Emanuel’s re-election four months later, as well as the city council’s decision to award McDonald’s family $5 million within weeks of his death and without the conclusion of an official inquiry, people accused Emanuel of orchestrating a coverup to prevent the murder from negatively affecting his candidacy.

Emanuel's paternal grandfather was a Moldovan Jew who emigrated from Bessarabia.[8] The surname Emanuel (Hebrew: עמנואל), which means "God is with us", was adopted by their family in honor of his father's brother Emanuel Auerbach, who was killed in 1933 in an altercation with Arabs in Jerusalem.[9][10]

Emanuel's father, Benjamin M. Emanuel, was a Jerusalem-born[11] pediatrician at Michael Reese Hospital[12] who was once a member of the Irgun, a Jewish paramilitary organization that operated in British Mandate Palestine.[13]

The Emanuels are members of the Chicago synagogue Anshe Sholom B'nai Israel.[31] Rabbi Asher Lopatin of the congregation described Emanuel's family as "a very involved Jewish family", adding that "Amy was one of the teachers for a class for children during the High Holidays two years ago".[31] Emanuel has said of his Judaism: "I am proud of my heritage and treasure the values it has taught me."[31]

While some, including Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.), have pushed against the potential nomination, those with the biggest sway are staying comparatively mum. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), a much-needed vote for Emanuel’s confirmation who has a longstanding feud with the former mayor, declined to comment on the potential nomination through a spokesperson, and Ocasio-Cortez has been silent on an ambassadorship for Emanuel as well.

Palestinians fight for the right to be a human being. Sodomites fight for a "right" to engage in a carnal desire (albeit a perverted one) & to normalize it in society/culture, esp. to little kids. The two are NOT the same.

authors Lapidus and Salaymeh write that before the 19th century Ottoman society had been open and welcoming to homosexuals and that by the 1850s via European influence they began censoring homosexuality in their society.[20]
...
Klauda states that "Countless writers and artists such as André Gide, Oscar Wilde, Edward M. Forster, and Jean Genet made pilgrimages in the 19th and 20th centuries from homophobic Europe to Algeria, Morocco, Egypt, and various other Arab countries, where homosexual sex was not only met without any discrimination or subcultural ghettoization whatsoever, but rather, additionally as a result of rigid segregation of the sexes, seemed to be available on every corner."[120]
...
Tilo Beckers writes that "Besides the endogenous changes in the interpretation of scriptures having a deliberalizing influence that came from within Islamic cultures, the rejection of homosexuality in Islam gained momentum through the exogenous effects of European colonialism, that is, the import of Western cultural understandings of homosexuality as a perversion."[17]
...
the current prejudice against it among Muslim publics stems from an amalgamation of traditional Islamic legal theory with popular notions that were imported from Europe during the colonial era, when Western military and economic superiority made Western notions of sexuality particularly influential in the Muslim world."[122]

In some Muslim-majority countries, current anti-LGBT laws were enacted by United Kingdom or Soviet organs and retained following independence.[18][19]
...
The Ottoman Sultanic law (qanun) tended to equalize the treatment of hetero- and homosexuals. Dream interpretation literature accepted homosexuality as natural, and karagoz, the principal character of popular puppet theater, engaged in both active and passive gay sex. However, in the 19th century, Ottoman society started to be influenced by European ideas about sexuality as well as the criticism leveled at the Ottoman society by European authors for its sexual and gender norms, including homosexuality. This criticism associated the weakness of the Ottoman state and corruption of the Ottoman government with Ottoman sexual corruption. By the 1850s, these ideas were prompting embarrassment and self-censorship among the Ottoman public regarding traditional attitudes toward sex in general and homosexuality in particular. Dream interpretation literature declined, the puppet theater was purged of its coarser elements, and homoeroticism began to be regarded as abnormal and shameful.

Working In Education Taught Me Race Realism - American Renaissance

"For me, the light came slowly."

I am a child of Holocaust survivors, which made me ripe for the rhetoric claiming that blacks fail because of the legacy of slavery and lingering racism.

I was introduced to the predictive validity of IQ. I also learned that the IQs of identical twins raised apart were much more similar than the IQs of fraternal twins raised together, and that abundant studies showed that blacks — worldwide — had much lower IQs than whites or Asians. This did not prove that the black-white difference is genetic, but it certainly suggested it.

After completing my Ph.D. (at the top of my class), I applied for dozens of professorships but could not get a job. I got an inkling as to why at the end of what seemed like a perfect interview. The committee members nodded in agreement at nearly everything I said, often smiling. Afterwards, all the committee members except the department chair left, and he asked me to stay behind. I dared hope he would offer me the job. Instead, he said, “I’ll deny saying it, but I want to save you the wondering. You are, by far, the best candidate for the job, but you don’t stand a ghost of chance of getting it. The dean has informed us that the next seven hires will be women or minorities.”

I was forced to go back to teaching inner-city kids. Again, I found most of the blacks remarkably unintelligent, often violent, and often impossible to reason with. After three years, I landed a temporary one-year position as lecturer at a university. My office mate was a Hispanic woman — a truly unintelligent, abysmal teacher. At the end of the year, she was offered a tenure-track job and I was released despite outstanding student evaluations and even a student protest over the decision not to rehire me. I’ve since seen reverse discrimination become ever more extreme, along with the unfair denigration of white males in textbooks, college classes, sitcoms, news shows, etc., etc.
