Several Jewish organizations pulled out of a high-level meeting with the Department of Education about antisemitism on campuses on Friday morning after finding out far-left groups were added at the last minute, Fox News Digital has confirmed.
The groups, which "either did not participate in or dropped off the call," the Jewish Insider reported, included the Anti-Defamation League, the Jewish Federations of North America, Hillel International, the Orthodox Union, the Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law, and the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations.
The decision was made shortly before the 10 a.m. meeting between the Jewish groups and Education Secretary Miguel Cardona, White House Domestic Policy Adviser Neera Tanden and other senior officials.
According to Jewish Insider, the mainstream Jewish organizations took particular issue with the invitation of the Diaspora Alliance, which is "closely aligned with the far-left Jewish activist group IfNotNow."
The group IfNotNow is an anti-Israel Jewish organization that has staged several protests to block highways. Its website accuses Israel of having an "apartheid system" and states that the Jewish nation "massacres Palestinians in Gaza."

The White House invited radical progressive groups that are almost entirely funded by Alex and George Soros <- whose umbrella funds are also allegedly FUNDING THE ANTISEMITIC PROTESTS on American campuses.
@Equ4litySmeltRepublican2yrs2Y
They invited IfNotNow and T'Ruah. You can't make this up.
@XemplaryD3fenceDemocrat2yrs2Y
Also Bend The Arc - all the antisemitic Soros-funded Biden allies of the radical progressive antizionist wing. Unreal.
@Equ4litySmeltRepublican2yrs2Y
You recall the WH did the same thing with the 'antisemitism plan' - inviting Islamist groups etc. These people are all either malicious or on copious amounts of cocaine.
@XemplaryD3fenceDemocrat2yrs2Y
You're so right. Some Jewish Biden support recently sent me the Biden "Antisemitism" plan as if it was some amazing thing.
So I sat down and actually read it, and it was a CATASTROPHE. It views antisemitism as SOLELY a right-wing phenomenon, never even once mentions anti-Zionism, only mentions Israel twice.
And what's worse: Their recommendation is that Jew should build a "multiracial coalition of progressive allies" to truly fight antisemitism.
I was FURIOUS. They are gaslighting and mocking us with this. It is extremely malicious.

soros is Jewish, what the HECK are you talking about? This is a conspiracy theory of the highest order, one rich Jew can’t run the whole media system, stop blaming the guy for everything you look ridiculous. The protests are anti-Zionist, many Jews already stood with them long before the colonization of Palestine ever even occurred. Did you forget the founders of Zionism had STRIKING commonalities and alliances with Nazi movements?
Are you claiming Jewish people can't be part of pro-Hamas protests? Isn't that the opposite what the left has been claiming all along, what with the "This Jew supports Palestine" signs people wave around?
@9CJ6CB62yrs2Y
At no point did I say that in my entire post, I said that Soros is still very much a Zionist in the rawest form, and that him somehow being antisemitic is bogus considering that historical Jewish antisemitism has been consistently on the right-wing spectrum. A center-left type like Soros isn’t gonna be the guy advocating for the death of Jews, nor is even the most (labelled by the Israelis govt) “antisemitic Jew” Norman Finklestine.

According to Jewish Insider, government officials sent out a list of participating organizations only 20 minutes prior to the meeting,
Intentional.
