Brooklyn SJP - Spreading Lies and Hate

On October 27, 2015, Brooklyn SJP shared an article on Facebook citing a Palestinian Prisoner's’ Club libel that "40% of Palestinian Children Detained by Israel Sexually Abused; Virtually All Tortured."


On November 2, 2015, Brooklyn SJP co-sponsoreda vigil to support former officers of the Holy Land Foundation (HLF) — who were found guilty of funneling $12 million dollars to Hamas. HLF’s founders received sentences ranging between 15 and 65 years in federal prison in the United States. Hamas’ chartercalls for the murder of Jews. Hamas television programing educates school children to hate Jews and its summer camps teach children to wage war.


On November 27, 2015, Brooklyn SJP shared on Facebook a misleading animated map representing lands that were controlled by Britain, Egypt, and Jordan as autonomous “Palestine,” stolen by Israel.


On May 1, 2016 Brooklyn SJP posted a photo supporting British politician and Member of Parliament Naz Shah, who was suspended from Britain's Labour Party for sharingon Facebook a graphic of Israel’s outline superimposed on a map of the US under the headline “Solution for Israel-Palestine Conflict – Relocate Israel into United States”, with the comment: “Problem solved.”


One placard at the October 8, 2015 die-in grossly mischaracterized Israel’s security fence — 97% of which is a low chain link barrier. It falsely claimed that Israel has an “Apartheid Wall” that is “30 times the length of Manhattan!” and “Twice as high as the Berlin wall!”

Brooklyn SJP - Supporting Terrorism  

On April 28, 2016, Brooklyn SJP shared an AJ+ video on Facebook about 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.  


On November 2, 2015, Brooklyn SJP co-sponsoreda vigil to support former officers of the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development (HLF) — who were found guilty of funneling $12 million dollars to Hamas.

The Holy Land Five (HL5) were five individuals associated with the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development (HLF) indicted for funneling funds to Hamas in the guise of humanitarian aid. The men were all convicted and sentenced in 2009 to federal prison terms ranging from 15 to 65 years.


On October 8, 2015, Brooklyn SJP staged an anti-Israel “die-in.” On Facebook, the group claimed the event was in solidarity with an international Palestinian “Day of Rage” called “In light of... israeli aggression against Palestinians, including the murder of 17-year old Hadeel Al Hashlamoun, and 19-year-old Fadi Alloun in cold blood, execution style.”  

Al Hashlamoun (18-years-old) was carrying a knife through a checkpoint and did not respond to orders to step back before she was shot by Israeli soldiers.

Fadi Aloon was shot by Israeli security forces after he stabbed a 15-year-old Israeli boy. Several hours before the attack, Aloon posted “Either martyrdom or victory” on his Facebook page. 


The Brooklyn SJP Facebook post featured a photo album of its “die-in” and referred to another “Day of Rage” event on October 6th — co-hosted by American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), NYC SJP and others who supported a “Day of Rage” called by “Palestinian forces.” 

The “Days of Rage” in October of 2015 were heralded by Hamas as the advent of a new intifada. They directly resulted in the deaths of Israeli civilians by shootings, stabbings and car rammings.


On October 8, 2015, Brooklyn SJP posted a graphic showing its support for a “third intifada” and called the wave of terror a “spike” in Palestinian “resistance to Israeli oppression.”

Brooklyn SJP - Condemning Interfaith Dialogue  

On March 13, 2016, Brooklyn SJP co-organized a panel event titled “Counterproductive Collaborations - The Faithwashing of the Israeli Occupation of Palestine,” co-sponsored by NYC SJP, Brooklyn SJP and the Muslim American Society

The event featured former New York president of American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) and Brooklyn College graduate Raja Abdulhaq. Abdulhaq has stated that he considers any Muslim group that organizes an interfaith event with a “Zionist” counterpart to be a “betrayal.”

Brooklyn SJP - Demonizing Israel

On November 27, 2015, Brooklyn SJP shared on Facebook a misleading series of maps.

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.

Brooklyn SJP - Promoting Hate Speech

On November 21, 2014, Brooklyn SJP hosted an event featuring disgraced anti-Israel Professor Steven Salaita.

In 2014, The University of Illinois withdrew an offer of employment to Salaita after becoming aware of his anti-Semitic tweets. One tweet, posted shortly after Hamas kidnapped three teenage Israeli high school students, read: "You may be too refined to say it, but I’m not: I wish all the f**king West Bank settlers would go missing.” In 2017, Salaita posted to Facebook: “People ask if I would go back in time and change anything. I would not…I will die unapologetic.” In February 2019, Salaita stated that he had become a school bus driver in the Washington, D.C., area.



SJP

SJP is a student organization engaged in anti-Israel activity on North American college and university campuses.


The first chapter of SJP was founded in 2001 at the University of California at Berkeley by Professor Hatem Bazian. Bazian has spread classic anti-Semitism, reportedly promoted religious anti-Semitism and defended the Hamas terror group. In 2004, Bazian called for “intifada” in America.


SJP organizes anti-Israel campaigns, including running annual Israel Apartheid Weeks, often in collaboration with Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) and Muslim Students Association (MSA) campus chapters.


SJP has been a major force in pushing the anti-Semitic Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement on campuses. Chapters have initiated dozens of BDS resolutions in student governments, which have been proposed on or around Jewish holidays, a time when many Jewish students are off-campus.


SJP activists have reportedly physically assaulted, intimidated and harassed Jewish students, disrupted pro-Israel campus events and demonized pro-Israel campus organizations.


Chapters have often endorsed and campaigned for numerous terrorists and whitewashed terrorism.
