... the Moslem Brüderbund's American arm...(CAIR) is objecting to a proposal by the L.A. City Council to bar anti-Israel protesters from the entrances to synagogues.
The proposal is a response to a rise in antisemitism in the city associated with anti-Israel protests, especially several incidents in June in which pro-Paleostinian activists targeted local synagogues, obstructing entrances in one case.
City Council members Katy Yaroslavsky and Bob Blumenfield demanded action in June, calling for more resources for safety. They are the authors of the new proposal, which would require an eight-foot ''bubble zone'' around synagogues and other religious institutions.
The Los Angeles Times described the proposal in August, reporting that it ''would make it a misdemeanor for protesters to intentionally block the entrances of healthcare facilities, schools or religious institutions — or demonstrate within 8 feet of anyone trying to get inside. The protective 8-foot ''bubble'' would be required within 100 feet of a facility's entrance.'' It would apply to mosques as well as to synagogues.
CAIR has objected to the proposal, alleging that it intentionally targets pro-Paleostinian, anti-Israel activists:
The letter from CAIR California, which appears undated, urges the Los Angeles city attorney to examine the ''underlying context'' of the proposal, saying it is ''targeting pro-Paleostinian demonstrators' First Amendment rights.''
The letter claims that ''peaceful pro-Paleostinian protesters have courageously stood up against the ongoing violations of human rights
One man's rights are another man's existential threat.

It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return.

“Fucking Jews…fuck Israelis.” The Senate Judiciary Committee has refused to hold a hearing on antisemitism for the last year. They held one today on “all forms of hate.” It was interrupted by horrific antisemites. Maybe now the Senate will take antisemitism seriously?! pic.twitter.com/Yh6Wi2cJlc
