‘Missing persons’ style posters of some of the people kidnapped by Hamas and being held hostage in Gaza have appeared in Jewish communities and in public places all over the country. And Hamas supporters have taken to tearing them down. Some of those have been captured on video. And it tends to happen on college campuses.
Who would do such a thing? Apparently a former ADL intern.
One of the NYU students who brazenly ripped down posters of Israeli hostages is an activist “extremely passionate about fighting racial profiling” who blamed her behavior on misplaced anger.
Yazmeen Deyhimi — a junior at the top university who once worked for the Anti-Defamation League — admitted to tearing apart banners that were plastered outside NYU’s Tisch Hall, in a shameless act that was caught on video.
Deyhimi came clean on her Instagram account after the action ignited social media outcry and calls for the school to hold the perpetrators accountable.
“I have found it increasingly difficult to know my place as a biracial brown woman, especially during these highly volatile times,” she wrote.
She’s mastered the patois of wokeness. And the ADL has mastered hiring enemies.
According to her LinkedIn profile, Deyhimi is an advocate against Muslim bigotry and spent a summer working with the ADL as a CSC Education Intern when she was just 15 years old.
“After review, we can confirm that one of the participants was part of an ADL high-school level summer internship in 2019,” a spokesperson for the organization told The Post.
“We fully condemn her actions and hope that the apology she issued is the first step towards working to repair the harm and deep hurt her actions caused.”
The ADL has since taken down a blog post announcing the Long Island native as one of the 12 student leaders joining the program, describing Deyhimi as “extremely passionate about fighting racial profiling and championing gender equality.”
While Jonathan Greenblatt has performed okay during the current crisis, I warned that the changes he made to the ADL have actually infected the group with extremists who hate Israel and Jews. That was on display earlier this year when Greenblatt ended up becoming the voice of reason compared to who was staffing the ADL.
That was recently brought home when ‘Jewish Currents’, a site derived from a Communist magazine that cheered the rape and murder of Jews during the Hebron Massacre, published audio from a Zoom chat in which ADL employees attacked Greenblatt for being critical of BDS and the anti-Israel movement.
To Greenblatt’s credit, when asked if there’s a place for anti-Israel employees at the ADL, he finally states, “if you still feel like you can’t square the fact that anti-Zionism is antisemitism, then maybe this isn’t the place for you. Like really, if you’re hearing what I’m saying, and you just don’t agree with it. You think it’s okay to deny Jews their rights? Again, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with saying, “You know what, I don’t think this is the right place for me.”
The ADL really needs to clean house. The organization’s transformation into a generic woke diversity outlet has made it incapable of performing its core mission. The Hamas attack was enough of a wakeup call that the ADL ponderously pivoted to actually performing its main task, documenting antisemitism, but it’s been slow and kludgy. Greenblatt’s performance on some chat shows notwithstanding, the ADL has lost touch with its original mission, and is staffed by leftists who think the organization needs to be about BLM, transgender rights, and Islamophobia, and actively hate Israel and Jews.
The response to the Hamas butchery has been a wake-up call for some on the Left. I’m not optimistic that it will lead to change within the ADL though.
What can one expect from the ADL !
ADL? I think that’s an initialism for All Dick Lickers.
I bet they lick asses, too. I had a chick give me a rim job, once. It wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. I actually liked it.
The ADL isa a scam a total scam
Maybe change the name to “PDL”? Pro Defamation League?
Note how she defined herself according to her race and sexuality.
She did mention she was biracial but did not explain what those two races are…
Chimp and Baboon, probably.
Greensplatt hires muslims, naturally. The previous guy was a good friend of Bibi, does this danger to Jews also claim the same? Are there any real alternatives to the current politicians in Israel?
We can righteously be too hard on the ADL since our own corrupt government hires the same enemies. There’s a very good chance that Yazmeen is headed for “civil” service. But yes, both need to clean house. It is my personal belief that DEI was created, at least in part, to prevent such sweepings.
“I have found it increasingly difficult to know my place as a biracial brown woman, especially during these highly volatile times,” she wrote.
The drivel these people spout is pathetic.
Vanilla and paper are browner than that fraud.
My skin is much darker than hers and I’m 100% white.
She could start finding her “place” by losing the stupid identifiers.
Many BIPOC girls seem to get a big thrill of the idea of the white girl types being gang-raped to death.
Brings to mind the ‘white girl bleed a lot’ meme of the flash mob craze of a decade or so ago.
AOC, Ilhan, Yazmeen Deyhimi; you would think that the crowd that went crazy against Kavanaugh and Trump might note how being gang-raped to death was the ultimate expression of this horror.
But no, a lot of BIPOC girls like that this is happening. Celebratory to the extreme, this one.
BIPOC. Well, that very acronym tells you a lot. This girl is extremely confused. Identity crisis is the adolescent disease of the last half century at least.
She needs to drop out of NYU, go to Israel and work in a menial job until she regains her sanity. First step. lose the nose ring. See a rabbi, find our who she really is.
I saw Yazmeen Deyhimi do that on TV. What a dump truck dyke. Why are American lesbians always so angry? I have lesbian friends in Indonesia and the Philippines who are nice. And they aren’t ugly.
Fundamentally, they’re all angry, which is why they should never be called “gay.”
Fucking American lezzies, man. They all need to be punched.
Just read a piece in which Deyhimi says she is a “bi racial brown person” and the article characterized her as “brilliant.” I’ll give you this though, she is loud and falsely proud but not brilliant, rather a nincompoop.
And super fugly.
The infiltration of “classical” organizations by destructively hateful woketards has been occurring across the board for years, and it mostly happened right under our noses. It is obvious now throughout government bureaucracy; corporate media; financial institutions; education; and entertainment. Hell, even the Billy Graham-founded “Christianity Today” is no longer actually Christian.
