The red-green alliance once again found the left divided as some congressional Democrats sounded off on a sordid demonstration embodying the “dangerous direction” of their base.
Whether it be giggling at a solemn memorial marking the 25th anniversary of 9/11, dressing up and making social media dances one year after the assassination of Charlie Kirk or simply gleefully boasting about abortions, many on the left have fully embraced a culture of death.
As keffiyeh-clad commies and inane “Queers for Palestine” set plans for a citywide protest on the third anniversary of the October 7 terror attack on Israel, some Democrat lawmakers spoke out against the “deeply offensive and morally bankrupt” among their constituents.
Sharing a social media post touting “glory to the martyrs, victory to the resistance” alleging genocide since 1948 when the First Arab-Israeli War began, New York Rep. Ritchie Torres (D) expressed, “The far left sees October 7th–the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust–not as an occasion to mourn the 1,200 Israelis murdered in an act of terror but as an occasion to romanticize the mass murder of Jews as ‘resistance.’ The inevitable consequence of glorifying political violence is political violence itself. That is the dangerous direction in which American politics seems to be heading.”

Likewise, New Jersey Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D) shared the red and white image summoning radicals to New York City’s city hall and captioned it, “Let’s be clear: choosing the third anniversary of October 7 to glorify the barbaric murder of 1,200 people, including Americans, as ‘resistance’ is deeply offensive and morally bankrupt.”
“In America,” the vice chair of the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus went on, “we don’t glorify terrorists as ‘martyrs.’ We condemn them. When you glorify political violence, you only invite more of it.”

Notably, the city’s Young Democratic Socialists of America was said to have deleted its endorsement according to The Times of Israel’s New York Correspondent Luke Tress who shared a post from the planned rally decrying New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) for having “betrayed his own alleged values” on the “Palestine movement” and failing to make those promises a reality.”
“Instead he has repeatedly capitulated to zionist pressure: Criminalizing protests against the sale of stolen Palestinian land in New York City through the passage of the NYC Council Bill Intro 1-B; allowing the NYPD to surveil, arrest, and violently suppress protests against these illegal land sales; and most recently, pledging $26 million tax dollars to the ‘Strategy to Combat Anti-Semitism’ which will provide funding for zionist propagandist groups such as JCRC-NY,” asserted the terrorist sympathizers.

Of course, while the Islamunist mayor made a show of committing to combat antisemitism, close inspection of the taxpayer-funded plan showed $6.4 million in grants were being directed to Partners Against Hate (PATH) “grassroots partners” which includes the Bay Ridge-based Arab American Association of New York formerly led by Mamdani string-puller Linda Sarsour.
Some may recall that the southwest Brooklyn neighborhood dubbed “Little Palestine” on Mamdani’s immigrant enclave map, has been the site of clashes with law enforcement as an anti-Israel mob took over Fifth Ave. to claim, “Resistance is justified when people are occupied.”
Others getting in on the hate included a coffee shop outside Austin, Texas named “Coffeyeh” which was reportedly giving away free lattes to those commemorating the brutal killing over around 1,200 men, women and children as well as the hostage-taking of scores more.
This is absolutely sickening.
Coffeyeh, a coffee shop in Cedar Park, Texas, just outside Austin, is giving free lattes on October 7th to anyone who comes in wearing a keffiyeh and can tell them “what day it is.”
October 7th is the day Hamas and other Palestinian armed groups stormed southern Israel, killed ~1,200 people, and dragged 251 hostages into Gaza. It was the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust.
Turning the anniversary of a massacre into a coffee promo is sick. The Islamification of Texas continues.
