Anti-Jewish Conspiracy Theories

Kahook has spread numerous anti-Semitic conspiracy theories on social media.
January 11, 2017, Kahook shared a video to Facebook featuring Neo-Nazi Ken O’Keefe, who PURPORTED to “expose” hundreds of years of “economic slavery driven by the Rothschilds.” O’Keefe also accused the Rothschilds of causing war in Iran and Syria to make money, sending “our sons and daughters of to war to kill innocent people, to rape them, to steal their land.”

Conspiracy theories regarding the Rothschild family date back to the 18th century. Anti-Semites frequently cite the family’s wealth to support the claim that “Jews control the world’s money supply.”
On December 19, 2016, Kahook shared on Facebook a graphic with a photo of former Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, captioned with a fabricated quote, falsely attributed to Sharon.

The photo's caption read: ‘Every time we do something, you tell me Americans will do this and do that. I want to tell you something very clear. Don’t worry about American pressure on Israel. We, the Jewish people, control America. And the Americans Know it.”  

The graphic was sourced from the anti-Semitic hate site If Americans Knew (IAK), founded by radical anti-Israel agitator Alison Weir.

In a 2012 primer, titled “The Top Ten Anti-Israel Groups in America,” The Anti Defamation League (ADL) exposed (p.5-6) Weir’s propagation of numerous anti-Semitic and anti-Israel conspiracy theories. ADL noted  that Weir wrote several articles promoting fraudulent claims of organ harvesting by Jews.

On November 4, 2016, Kahook shared a post to Facebook that presented a fabricated,newspaper article — dated 1927 — as fact. The article claimed that America was sold to five billionaires - the Rothschilds, Rockefellers, DuPont’s, Harriman’s and Warburg’s.  The post Kahook’s shared had the further caption: “USA is Owned by The Federal Reserved [sic.] Bank(Jewish Oligarch) & AIPAC(Zionists) ruled USA thru controlled Congress.”

The article was originally featured in a 1999 satirical work, called “Our Dumb Century”, published by “The Onion.”

On October 18, 2016, Kahook shared a graphic to Facebook that propagated the conspiracy theory that “The Rothschild family holds about 80% of the world’s total wealth.”  Kahook added the comment: “This is why I try not to get into politics because this is who runs America , they have congress in their pockets.”

On September 15, 2016, Kahook posted to Facebook: “That's why I don't vote! I learned along time ago who runs this country ! And let me fill you in on a secret , it's not our President or "Us" the people ! WAKE UP !” Kahook then responded: “” to the comment “Senators which r mostly zions,” and added “” to the comment: “And jews.”

On May 4, 2016, Kahook shared a video to Facebook, titled “The Rothschild conspiracy.”

On March 17, 2016, Kahook shared to Facebook a photo of Jacob Rothschild and David Rockefeller, with the caption: “AMERICANS DON’T ELECT PRESIDENTS. This is your President and Vice President and they win EVERY single election. If you think Trump or Sanders will stop these men you don’t understand how your government works. These are the men that lead our country to war, destroy our economy and steal our freedoms”. 

On March 15, 2016, Kahook shared an article to Facebook, titled: “Jean-Claude Van Damme calls out Rothschild and Rockefeller on live TV.” In the article, Van Damme claimed that “Rothschild and Rockefeller families control the politicians and run the world from behind the scenes.” The article was published on the website “hangthebankers.”

On March 6, 2016, Kahook shared a post to Facebook pushing the Rothschild conspiracy. The post featured photos of popular rapper Jay-Z next to his wife and pop-star Beyonce, with  a photo of Baron de Rothschild — and the following captions: “if you can name these people and what they do” ... “But not this man and what him and his family line have done for 500 years...then your level of knowledge is exactly where he wants it.”

On May 23, 2013, Kahook tweeted: “@baileygoat12 I agree except its not paid by the government , it's made by the Zionist Jews who truly run America #SadButTrue,” in response to the tweet: “@DaDeezL I agree, mainstream media is joke... It's all bs and paid off by the government.”

On April 13, 2013, Kahook tweeted: “It started when the Jews killed Jesus .... Yea I said it #ImOnOne.”

Spreading Anti-Israel Conspiracy Theories

On December 14, 2016, Kahook shared a post to Facebook that read: “Personally I’m outraged that Russia interfered in our election. Everyone knows that the only country that’s allowed to pick our leaders and dictate our foreign policy is Israel.” 

On November 30, 2016 Kahook shared an article to Facebook, from the notorious fake news site AWD, which claimed that Israel orchestrated the Paris attacks of November 13, 2015.  ISIS claimed responsibility for the November 2015 Paris attacks —  a series of coordinated terrorist attacks that killed 130 people and injured 368 people.

On June 6, 2016, Kahook posted to Facebook: “Silly me thought this was the United States of America , thought when our troops are sent to defend our country it was for America ...... Guessed Wrong, we are the nation formerly known as USA , we are Israels B*tch , if you don't agree PROVE ME WRONG.”

Kahook’spost featured an AJ+ video to Facebook that protested New York Governer Andrew Cuomo’s announcement that that the state of NY would boycott companies that boycotted Israel.

On November 5, 2014, Kahook posted to Facebook the libel that Israel intended to destroy Al-Aqsa, writing: “Imagine the Vatican getting vandalized....Would we (America) just let that happen with no Consequences....... These Israelis are trying to get us to attack them just so they can continue their genocide and claim they are defending themselves......this makes me sick Zionism is Racism.” Kahook’s post reproduced a tweet from anti-Israel propagandist Abbas Sarsour, which purported to document “what Israel did to our holy mosque” adding “#AlAqsaUnderAttack.”

The allegation that Jews “threaten” to destroy the Al-Aqsa Mosque has been a traditional pretext for Arab attacks on Jews long before the existence of the modern Jewish state. Such propaganda served as the excuse for an upsurge in Palestinian violence that flared in the fall of 2015 and incited Palestinians to attempt mass casualty attacks on Israeli civilians in July 2016.. 
On July 19, 2014, Kahook tweeted: “Killed before he could expose who really runs this country #ZionistIsrael.” The tweet featured a photo of former U.S. President John F. Kennedy, with the caption: “There’s a plot in this country to enslave every man, woman and child. Before I leave this high and noble office, I intend to expose this plot.” 

The tweet is based on the conspiracy theory which claims that former President John F. Kennedy tried to expose Israel’s nuclear program and to kick the “Zionists” out the United States. The theory claims that Kennedy predicted at the time that he would be “remembered” for these efforts.”

Equating Israel with Nazis

On January 27, 2017, Kahook retweeted the tweet: “Holocaust Remembrance Day = ZIONIST killing poor JEWS #NA-ZI-onist.”

On October 24, 2016, Kahook re-shared to Facebook images he had posted two years prior, comparing Israel to Nazis with the caption “Nazism=Zionism.”. 

On May 10, 2013, Kahook tweeted: “#Genocide  Hitler did it to the Jews n now Jews do it to #Palestinians? #CircleofLifeIGuess”

Comparing Israel to ISIS and the KKK

On April 25, 2016, Kahook posted to Facebook a montage of photos featuring robed KKK members, masked ISIS terrorists and Orthodox Jews holding Israeli flags, with the caption “Not Real Christians, Not Real Muslims, Not Real Jews.” Kahook added: “.”

On March 3, 2015, Kahook shared a post to facebook comparing Israel to ISIS, claiming that they both “hijacked a peaceful religion for support in furthering brutal and inhumane political ideologies.”

Demonization of Israel

On February 15, 2017, Kahook shared to Facebook a graphic comparing Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu unfavorably to the late Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. 
Hussein was notorious for his brutal regime. The caption on the graphic Kahook shared accused Netanyahu of “war crimes, like mass murdering Palestinians and use of chemical weapons on Gaza.”

On July 3, 2016, Kahook posted to Facebook a photo of the Israeli flag, with the caption: “ISRAEL is a TERRORIST state,” followed by “Share if you Agree!”

On January 25, 2016, Kahook shared on Facebook a post which read: “How to make an Israeli salad: 1. Steal a Palestinian's home (because you'll need their kitchen and recipes)  2. Prepare your favorite dish 3. Re-brand it as 'Israeli'.”

On August 3, 2015, Kahook shared toFacebookan article from the click-bait site “Addictinginfo.org, which accused Israel of executing “Palestinian civilians in cold blood,” as well as “war crimes and crimes against humanity.” The article relied on the testimony of anti-Israel propagandist Max Blumenthal.

On April 15, 2015, Kahook shared a post to Facebook that likened Palestinian Arabs to Native Americans and accused Israel of settler colonialism. The post featuried a misleading series of maps of Israel which has been widely termed “The Map that Lies”.

The maps claim that lands once controlled by Britain, Egypt and Jordan as autonomous “Palestinian land” were purportedly stolen by Israel. In February 2016, publisher McGraw-Hill Education recalled copies of a college textbook containing the fraudulent maps. In October 2015, American cable news network MSNBC apologized for airing a similar series of maps and retracted them.


On September 1, 2015, Kahook shared to Facebook a graphic which made claimed “zionist apartheid israel[sic.] is oppressing, abusing, imprisoning and massacring Christians as well as Muslims. #freePalestine.”

In truth, the Palestinian leadership discriminates against Christians —  while Israel has been described as the safest place for Christians, with a growing population.   

On November 20, 2014, Kahook shared to Facebook a video, which purported to show women from the Israeli army “talking about abuse in the Occupied Palestinian Territories.” The video was produced by the anti-Israel organization Breaking the Silence. 

In July 2016, Breaking the Silence was discredited by Israel’s investigative Channel 10 TV show, HaMakor (The Source). HaMakor presented a report revealing that a substantial number of BTS testimonies are not true or are distorted.

On November 19, 2014 — just after the Har Nof synagogue massacre — Kahook shared a meme to Facebook, with the caption: “Israel occupies palestinian land, Israel massacres Palestinian civilians, children and women, Israel breaks ceasefire, Palestinians respond, the world blamesPalestinians[sic.]. Repeat cycle.” Kahook added: “Pretty much sums it up.”

In the 2014 Har Nof Massacre, two Palestinian terrorists murdered six people using a gun, axes and a butcher knife, during morning prayers in a West Jerusalem synagogue. Hani Thawbta, a Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) leader in Gaza praised the massacre as "heroic."


On November 18, 2014, Kahook shared a post by anti-Israel activist Remi Kenazi, which read: “Palestinians executed, children run over, homes demolished, land confiscated, resources appropriated, schools teargassed, settlement expanded, but the timeline begins when an Israeli dies.”

On July 6, 2014, Kahook claimed on Facebook that Israel was committing genocide. Kahook also claimed that 8,000 Palestinian children under 10 years old were in “prisons/ dungeons.” 

On June 3, 2013, Kahook tweeted: “All i see is Violence , Product of environments, created by Zionists #FreeMyPeople.”

On July 12, 2012, Kahook tweeted: “How long will it be till they #see the horrible acts and inhumanity the Zionist do and have been doin to my people #Palestine.”

Endorsing Martyrdom and Violence

On August 8, 2014  Kahook and Eiad Hasan released a rap song “Injustice,” that encouraged Palestinian martyrdom and supported terrorism. The song urged listeners to: “... choose to be a martyr, refuse to be a mourner” (at 00:47).  Kahook released the song under the alias “DeeZL.”

Kahook recorded the song during  Operation Protective Edge (OPE), which Israel launchedin July 2014, to stop Hamas rocket attacks against Israeli civilians and to destroy Hamas attack tunnels.  

The song went on to say: “Zionism is murderous and methods sadistic, genocide of my people” and “women and children getting murdered (2:04).”

On November 1, 2011, Kahook and Hasan published a rap video, titled “Make or Break,” to Youtube. The video was dedicated to “the kid who living in Gaza” and claimed “bombs wake him up when he’s sleeping like an alarm clock, soldiers coming into the house and makin’ his heart drop, barrel to his head and he say he makin’ your heart stop.”

The song continued: “hold your head high, they never get the best of me, locked up like an animal he living like a refugee,  they control what come in, or what water and food he eat up”  before adding “time to fight back, cuz he tired of the bulls**t, so he just grab a gun and then he loaded it with a full clip.”  

Whitewashing Anti-Israel Terror

On March 29, 2017, Kahook posted to facebook: “Nothing to see here, just another Palestinian Woman murdered by the Israeli Army …”  The post featured a video of Siham Ratib Nimr, after being shot.

On March 29, 2017, Siham Ratib Nimr [Siham Rateb Nimir] was shot dead after attempting to stab Israeli Border Police officers in Jerusalem. 
On November 8, 2016, Kahook shared an article to Facebook, titled: “Palestinian child Ahmad Manasrah, 14, sentenced to 12 years in Israeli prison.” 

Ahmed Manasra (sometimes spelled Mansara) and his 15-year-old cousin Hassan went on a stabbing spree in Jerusalem on October 12, 2015, during the Knife Intifada. The pair critically wounded a 13-year-old Israeli boy and moderately wounded a 25-year-old man. Manasra later admitted to investigators: “I went there to stab Jews,” and was convicted on two counts of attempted murder.
On April 25, 2016, Kahook posted to Facebook: “12 yrs old and you can look at her eyes and see she's been through hell and back ..... The Terrorist State of Israel did this to her and We (America) support Israel SMMFH (Shaking My Mother F**king Head).” Kahook’s posted featured photos of Dima Al-Wawi.

12-year-old Al-Wawi was imprisoned for attempting to stab a security guard at the Israeli community Karmei Tzur. Al-Wawi later claimed she intended to kill the guard and hoped she would be killed in the process. “I was dreaming that I was going to be martyred,” she said.  


Farouk is the cousin of 20-year-old Basel Bessam Sidr. Two weeks before, Basel rushed at Israeli police officers, attempting to stab them, before being shot. 

On August 11, 2012, Kahook tweeted: “We ain't terrorist ! We just products of environments created by Zionist ! #FreePalestine.  #Falesteen.”

Supporting British MP George Galloway

On October 17, 2016, Kahook shared a photo of British Member of Parliament George Galloway to Facebook. The photo had a caption which read: “Israel is a racist colonial state founded by European settlers. Zionism a racist ideology hated by many Jews and loved by many anti-Semites.”

Galloway’s anti-Zionist rhetoric has been condemned as anti-Semitic on numerous occasions. In 2013, Galloway walked out of an Oxford debate saying “I don’t recognize Israel and refuse to debate with Israelis” when he discovered one of the participating students was an Israeli citizen. 

In 2014, Galloway declared his constituency of Bradford an “Israel-free-zone.”  

Supporting Mads Gilbert

On November 14, 2014, Kahook shared an article to Facebook in support of Hamas-affiliated Mads Gilbert, reporting that “Israel bans Norwegian doctor from Gaza for life.” Kahook commented: “They banned him because he wasn't afraid to admit Israel are the Terrorist and Palestinians are the oppressed.”

Gilbert has been banned indefinitely from entering Gaza through Israel because of his connections to the Hamas leadership. 

In 2008, 2009, 2012 and 2014 Gilbert was stationed at a hospital that served as a Hamas command center and rocket launching site. During that time he acted as a propagandist for the Hamas government in Gaza.

In 2001, following al Qaeda's September 11 terrorist attacks, Gilbert expressed support for the terror acts as a “legitimate response.” In December of 2009, Gilbert was accused of faking resuscitation on a dead child in Gaza for dramatic effect for a CNN video.


On the same day, Kahook posted an interview of Mads Gilbert to Facebook.

Jew-Washing

On December 29, 2013, Kahook shared on Facebook a Fox News interview of “an Israeli Jew [who] says that they do support Palestine, and are against Israel.” The interview that Kahook shared featured Yisroel Weiss of Neturei Karta who is based in Monsey, NY.

Neturei Karta is an anti-Israel Jewish fringe group whose leader, Yisroel Dovid Weiss, was excommunicated from many Ultra-Orthodox Jewish groups for participating in a 2006 Holocaust denial conference in Iran. The group opposes Zionism on religious grounds and has called to dismantle Israel.


BDS

The Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement was founded by Omar Barghouti in 2005 to challenge “international support for Israeli apartheid and settler-colonialism.” BDS is an allegedly “Palestinian-led movement,” although leading BDS activists have admitted [00:01:01] this is not true. 

One of the demands of BDS includes [point 3] what is generally known as the “right of return,” a demand discredited as a way to eliminate Israel. Barghouti said the “right of return” is a means to “end Israel’s existence as a Jewish state.”  

Barghouti has said that BDS “aims to turn Israel into a pariah state, as South Africa once was.”

In his activism, Barghouti has also said [00:05:55] regarding Israel: “Definitely, most definitely, we oppose a Jewish state in any part of Palestine. No…rational Palestinian, not a sellout Palestinian, will ever accept a Jewish state in Palestine.”

The movement has been linked to numerous terrorist organizations and received a public endorsement from Hamas in 2017.

BDS initiatives include calling on institutions and individuals to divest from Israeli-affiliated companies, promoting academic and cultural boycotts of Israel, and organizing anti-Israel rallies, protests and campaigns.

The movement’s most notable achievement has been the infiltration of university campuses through lobbying for “BDS resolutions.” In these cases, student governments and student groups, backed by their own anti-Israel members and affiliates, have proposed resolutions on some form of boycott of, or divestment from, Israel and Israeli-affiliated entities.

Boycott resolutions, although non-binding, have been passed by student governments on numerous North American campuses.


BDS activity is often aggressive and disruptive. It has been noted that universities that pass BDS resolutions see a marked increase in anti-Semitic incidents on campus. On one campus, when the student government debated a BDS resolution, reports emerged of violent threats against those opposing it.
