#1 Admitting they were surprised is advertising they're really, really stupid.

#2 "It is a real tragedy that Black Lives Matter -- which has done so much good in raising awareness of police abuses..."

what BLM has done has been to make it more difficult to do police work in places that need it -- nothing good about that -- nothing --nothing---nothing.

#3 Perhaps Alan Dershowitz thinks OJ's fate is a tragedy as well. A modern day Pharisee hiding in a mental utopia. At least he is consistent. Pay him no mind, other than as an illustrative example.

#4 "It is a real tragedy that Black Lives Matter -- which has done so much good in raising awareness of police abuses -- has now moved away from its central mission and has declared war against the nation state of the Jewish people," said Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan M. Dershowitz

Whatever questionable "good" BLM has done is far outweighed by the bad, and it's sad that Dershowitz doesn't recognize this.

In the end, BLM will do what its enablers and sponsors in the Democratic Party, along with George Soros, intended it to do: set back race relations in the US by a century, and drastically accelerate the descent of America's black enclaves into "unspeakable hellhole" status.

Dershowitz is occasionally on the mark in his assessment of things, but he's capable of astounding stupidity at times. This is one of those times.

#5 BLM is cut from the same cloth as the New Black Panthers and the KKK.

They shouldn't have been surprised if they were paying attention.

#6 So you (Jewish supporters) attended a Kwanzaa festival and you thought they'd [BLM] love you. I did notice a Chicago Palestinian Film Festival you might also be interested in. Kumbaya delusional lefties.

#7 Nation of Islam (Calypso Louie) or National Action Network (Sharpton *spit*) or "Hymietown" (Jessuh), anyone? As if Black hatred of dupe Joooos is anything new?

#8 Some in the BLM movement are a part of the "Real Jews are Black" movement. They think the white Jews are imposters. The radicals in the movement can vary their beliefs from the Nation of Islam to the Black Jews to outright anarchists. This Professor emeritus Dershowitz seems remarkably uninformed jackazz or is just an arrogant jackazz...or both.

#9 Five bucks says the vast majority of Jews don't make a significant course correction.

#10 Five bucks says the vast majority of Jews don't make a significant course correction.

Somewhat like other voting blocks that vote 97% democrat (.0125 margin of error).

#11 They should we all be ashamed, but that would require self awareness and a moral compass. Both consciously rejected by the group and supporters mentioned in the article.

--Besoeker (@10)

Oikophobia. An acquaintance...
(ex-friend when he discovered Prophet Obama, declared himself a Socialist and decided if I didn't vote the Big-0 then I had to be racist)
...who was also Armenian-descended, Atheist and Jewish, told me that the Bush Administration was run by "Theocons and Neocons!" He couldn't explain what a Neocon was, but he knew that they were evil. One unifying thread that ran through his worldview seemed to be that local people were bad and somehow the far away national govermnent (also NGOs and QUANGOs) were good -- unless they were Republicans.

#13 I only obey the ZOG, as long as the checks don't bounce.

#14 Once again, the only Democratic Party presidential candidates who got 90% of the Jewish vote were FDR and LBJ.

Barack Obama got 78% in 2008 and 69% in 2012.

In other words, American Jews gave John McCain 22% of their votes, and Mitt Romney 30%.

Link.

Do y'all really expect Hillary Clinton to do as well as Barack Obama did?

Professor Emeritus Dershowitz lives in an atmosphere even more rarified than when he was actively teaching, into which reality is rarely allowed to intrude.

#15 Not sure if I can have a proper high tea with someone who types y'all. Disappointing, very. Still, good cookies will out.

#16 BLM has the same enablers and operatives as OWS, and you can read Horowitz's book to see where /those/ guys came from. Hint: it's the US Communist party and its allies. 'Black' is just the core around which to cluster all the other victim groups.

#17 Not sure if I can have a proper high tea with someone who types y'all

I don't do high tea, Shipman, which is really only a light supper with things like baked beans on toast. I serve afternoon tea with several baked things, and something stronger on the sideboard for those who prefer it. The y'all I picked up from Southern friends. It's useful as a clear plural, forestalling the dreadfully dull argument that the Northern version, you guys, only includes the masculine members of the group. Not that I've encountered that here, but habits will habituate. ;-)
