Governor Newsom Trashes Israel and Jews: Writes Open Letter to Muslims and Arabs for a Cease-Fire in Gaza

Governor Newsom just threw Israel and American Jews under the bus.

As Israel continues to defend itself from the ongoing attacks of Hamas terrorists, Newsom released an open letter to California’s Muslim, Palestinian-American, and Arab-American communities.

Newsom’s message said:

“To California’s Muslim, Palestinian American, and Arab American communities:

California is a better place because of you—our Muslim, Palestinian American, and Arab American neighbors and friends who contribute so much to our state’s sense of faith and belonging.”

He went on to say:

“That’s why it pains me so deeply to see the ways your communities are suffering, bearing the weight of lost family and friends in Gaza while facing a rise in discrimination and hate here at home. As I’ve met with leaders from your communities recently, I’ve heard stories of unimaginable loss and widespread fear.”

Then, after pointing out a Chicago attack on an Arab child, Newsom said, Here in California, too, we’ve seen bigotry rear its ugly head. In November, an Arab Muslim student at Stanford University was injured in a hit-and-run by a driver who is alleged to have shouted hateful vitriol as he sped away, an incident authorities are rightfully investigating as a possible hate crime. We’ve heard too many stories of violence and discrimination—too many Californians fear being treated differently in school, excluded at work, or risking harassment just by walking down the street.”

In other words, in America’s largest state of 39.24 million, Newsom cites one unverified case of discrimination.

Without any evidence, he said:

“These are not isolated incidents. Hateful acts targeting those who are or are perceived to be Muslim or Arab American are becoming more common. In California, reported anti-Muslim bias events rose 44.4% from 2021 to 2022. Reports also indicate a spike in reported anti-Muslim and anti-Arab incidents following the October 7th terrorist attack on Israel—the largest documented surge of its kind since late 2015 and early 2016, amidst calls for a Muslim ban. And now, many Muslim and Arab American communities report a level of fear comparable to the months following 9/11.”

Then Newsom condemned the violence, never being specific as to whose violence he was condemning… just in general, saying:

“So, let me be clear—I condemn the ongoing and horrific loss of innocent civilian life in Gaza. I support President Biden’s call for an immediate ceasefire as part of a deal to secure desperately needed relief for Gazan civilians and the release of hostages. I also unequivocally denounce Hamas’s terrorist attack against Israel. It is time to work in earnest toward an enduring peace that will furnish the lasting security, autonomy, and freedom that the Palestinians and the Israeli people both deserve.”

Newsom, of course, never mentions Hamas still holding hostages and still wanting war against Israel and driving the Jews “to the sea.”

Newsome then talks about hatred toward Muslims… but not Jews, saying:

“As part of that effort, we are fighting back against Islamophobia and Anti-Arab hate—working to keep communities safe while uplifting Muslim and Arab American heritage and culture.”

Now, what about taxpayer money?

“At the K-12 level, California’s first-in-the-nation ethnic studies course requirement will contribute to a climate of inclusion, including through lessons dedicated to Arab Americans. And beyond our borders, in November, we shipped a field hospital and vital medical supplies to support humanitarian relief for civilians in Gaza. In recent weeks, the California National Guard has continued participating in efforts to deliver aid.”

Newsome then closes the letter by saying:

“I am committed to deepening our partnerships at every state government level, including through the California Civil Rights Department’s ongoing anti-hate work. Let us confront hate together. To every Muslim, Palestinian American, and Arab American who calls California home: please know that you belong here.”

Bottomline, Newsom’s job is to calm the upset Arab community and secure their support for the Democrats.

Iseral… well, they aren’t part of his ideological worldview.
