The offices of the Los Angeles Times were closed to the public on Sunday Nov. 1, but that did not stop a group of about 40 demonstrators — many of them Jewish high-school students — from expressing their outrage at how the newspaper has been covering the recent wave of violence in Israel.
“I’m really upset about what the media has been saying — not just the L.A. Times, but many media outlets,” Danielle Younai, a junior at de Toledo High School in West Hills, told the Journal at the Sunday rally.
The 16-year-old, who carried a sign featuring a blown-up version of the Oct. 10 Times article headlined “Four Palestinian teens are killed in Israeli violence,” denounced how the media have portrayed “Palestinians as victims, when they are the ones stabbing.”
Protester caricatures L.A. Times reportage slanted to absolve Islamist Palestinian terrorism and condemn Israel
For several weeks, deadly incidents have taken place in Israel almost daily, many of them involving knife attacks by Palestinians on Jews. Israeli authorities have responded with lethal force in many cases.
Reacting to what he sees as unbalanced media coverage of the aforementioned events, Milken Community Schools senior Joseph Levy organized this past weekend’s demonstration outside the L.A. newspaper’s downtown office at the intersection of First and Spring Streets.

Thousands of people marched on Times Square in opposition to Obama's Iran sanctions / nuclear deal. Experts and luminaries delivered impassioned remarks. Watch experts address the crowd of 13,000 (estimated) at Times Square of why to contact and hold Democrat congressmen and Senators to accountability to override the White House's expected veto. Democracy Broadcasting originally published the nearly 3 hour video clips from the event in July. We also release individual clips onto YouTube gradually over time. Here are list of some of the newly-individually published segments which, because they are from the latter portions of the progam, deserve greater prominence and attention.

In a recent report appearing in the UK-based Telegraph, both Qatar and Kuwait were singled out for openly, and even avidly, aiding fundraising efforts for Islamic State/ISIS terrorists who are currently engaged in fierce clashes with the Syrian army alongside Israel on the Golan Heights. (The Algemeiner 9/7)
Qatar and Turkey are accused of taking over as the main foreign patrons for Hamas after Iran and the Sunni organization had a falling out three years ago - over its support for rebel fighters seeking to dislodge Tehran's ally, Bashar al-Assad in Syria. Qatar hosts Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal and has pledged $400 million in infrastructure funding for Hamas. ("Congress goes after 'frenemies' Turkey, Qatar" in al-Monitor 9/9)
Arlan Mitnick organized Qatar Consulate protest in LA
In Beverly Hills, California, an ethnically-diverse group of Christians, Jews, a Hindu Sikh demonstrated against the Obama administration's enabling Qatar's influence - which they feel contradicts America's foreign policy interest to defeat the Islamist groups which persecute non-Muslim peoples, like the Coptic Christians of Egypt and the Jews of Israel. The protest was held outside the Qatar Consulate in Beverly Hills on Sunday, September 7th. Many passing cars honked their horns in solidarity with the protestors

Reporter Dave Bryan was conducting an interview around 10 p.m. when the suspect tackled him and his videographer, the station confirmed. “All of the sudden, this guy came up from behind, he had a hood, and he knocked David on the head and he pushed the camera guy down. The camera guy went down, the camera went down, David went down,” witness Joseph Deguerre, said. “I was in shock.” The suspect then fled the scene and the crew was treated for minor injuries, the station added. The attack was under investigation by the Los Angeles Police Department.
About 350 Los Angeles Police Department officers swarmed the Crenshaw district Monday night after groups of youths broke away from the demonstration protesting the George Zimmerman murder trial verdict. The group roamed Crenshaw Boulevard and neighboring streets, breaking windows, setting fires and attacking several people. LAPD Chief Charlie Beck put the public on notice that officers would be taking a more aggressive posture toward protesters beginning Tuesday. "This will not be allowed to continue," he said. Police estimated that about 150 people took part in the violence after the peaceful vigil at Leimert Park following a Florida jury's Saturday acquittal of Zimmerman, 29, on charges of second-degree murder and manslaughter in last year's shooting death of unarmed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin. Protesters stormed a Wal-Mart at the Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza, pushing their way through as guards scrambled to close security gates. A short while later, LAPD officers wearing helmets and carrying batons swarmed the store as others marched through the parking lot. At a late-night news conference, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti blamed the violence on a "a small group [that] has taken advantage of this situation." He said protesters have the right to voice their disagreement with the verdict, "but people also deserve to be safe on the streets and in their cars."
Outside of the Israeli Consulate in L.A on Thurs 15 Nov, Islamist & far-leftist anti-Zionist groups (led by American Muslims for Palestine) staged a vitriolic protest to Israel's attempt to stop incessant Palestinian terrorist rocketing. The protest (which drew reporters from all local TV stations) drew not one organized, funded pro-Zionst group to counter-rally in Israel's defense.
Rabbi Moshe Parry, leading fewer than half-a-dozen individual Jews in the absence of organized pro-Zionist organizations, stepped-up to challenge the protestors and provide a Zionist perspective to the media.
But the Muslim protestors we interviewed reveal an agenda which goes far beyond just ending the missile defense or a state in Gaza and the West Bank - their goal to conquer the State of Israel. Rabbi Parry states that Jews will never be safe alongside an irredentist movement following a conflicting religious dogma to conquer the state from the Jewish guardianship entrusted to the Jews in the Holy Bible.
The Pro-Israel groups who were absent on Thursday plan to rally support outside the same Consulate on Sunday, 18 November at 1pm. The address is 11000 Wilshire Blvd, Los Angeles.

anti-Zionist Communists join with Islamists in crusade against
democracy and individual liberties
The true agenda of the self-proclaimed, Palestinian peace-proponents seeking to embarrass Israel for having to shoot its way out of an Islamist lynch-mob ship on Sunday - was revealed on Monday in Los Angeles. One courageous, Israeli-born, American high-school student stood-up for his right to publicly support Israel - and a rally of hundreds of Muslim and far-leftist, pro-Palestine demonstrators nearly turned-into the lynch-mob they sought to downplay.
Outside of the Israeli Consulate to L.A. on Memorial Day, Daniel a Jewish high-school student defiantly waved the Israeli flag through a crowd of Israel-haters - to defend what he perceives as the Israeli Marines' justified handling of the Flotilla blockade when they came under attack.
The L.A.P.D. had to establish a human wall to intervene to protect Daniel (and afterwards, a couple of other Israel supporters) who stood-up in opposition to the mob mentality of the Gaza protestors, with their version of the facts of the case and rights of expression.
When a Muslim protestor cries, "Allahu akhbar" to incite the crowd against the Jewish boy - the opposition to Israel's politics become subordinated to the perception of "Holy War" as a driving force of the Muslim side of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
American-born Muslima's professes
allegiance to Palestine, not America
"Was Israel Jewish in the Bible?
I don't know about that?"
An American-born, young woman of Palestinian heritage rallying to "Free Palestine," reveals that it means more than just drawing-down Israel's presence in the West Bank. When she saw the Israeli-American demonstrator, she shrieked, "I'll kill him! You killed my family! Take that flag down! You killed my people!" In DemoCast's original video, she confesses that the objective of their movement is not for Palestinian autonomy to co-exist with Israel, but to destroy Israel and conquer it for Palestinians to rule.
An unholy alliance between Islamists and Communist/Marxist groups demonstrated their disdain for democracy in a raucus, hate-filled demonstration before the Israeli Embassy in Los Angeles on Friday evening, 2 January 2009. What was called to be a protest against Israeli challenges to Hamas' terror leadership and infrastructure - actually manifested as an anti-American, anti-Semitic demonstration of hate.
Under their banners of swastikas, unruly Islamist-supremacists ascended traffic light poles to raise the flags of terrorist movements, Hamas & Hezbollah flags over American streets, thumbing their noses in defiance of the formidable Los Angeles Police Department commands to take-them down and descend.
As the counter-jihad demonstration across Wilshire Boulevard dissipated, an expeditious Islamist gang crossed over to assert primacy over the opposing turf and counter-rally'ers. But a vigilant, few remaining Jewish-Americans stood boldly against their provocations. Former Los Angeles mayoral candidate, "Melrose" Larry Green (with little protection beyond a couple from Beitar) vociferously denounced the hate-filled antagonists, defiantly mocking their rabid anti-Americanism and anti-Semitism.
Note at the 1 1/2 minute point, the Muslims' provocative foray onto the Jewish side of the street.
This occurred after the press from the mainstream media departed. Only DemoCast.TV news video documented the events- another DemoCast.TV video exclusive.
Emboldened, perhaps, by the Jihad's public success against at killing Jews in Mumbai this week, Southern California Islamists try their hands at wiping-out Judaism's biblical-homeland and refuge - through a culturally-insensitive demonstration outside the Israeli Embassy in Los Angeles.
An unholy alliance of Islamist and Far-Left groups demonstrated outside the Israeli Embassy in Los Angeles on Thursday, December 4th. The demonstrators included the ANSWER Coalition, Free Iraq Now, International Action Center, LA Jews for Peace, and various Moslem, anti-Israel/pro-Palestinian nationalist groups united in the phased destruction of the world's only Jewish refuge in their Biblical homeland.
"Stand With Us" organized a multifaith opposition gathered to counter the anti-Zionists. A Persian-born woman cried-out warning about appeasing Islamic cultures' intolerance of minorities - which she alleges is the basis for the Muslim campaign to delegitimize the Jewish Holy Land from the Moslem-dominated Middle East.
"Stand with Us" college organizer, Karen, characterizes the anti-Zionists as not malicious, but "misguided" with regard to the historical legitimacy of Israel and the true intentions of Palestinian-state activists - which she contends is not a peaceful co-existence, but instead, the destruction of Jewish self-rule in Israel.
Scheduling their Islamist-Leftist rally within a week of the murders of 6 innocent Jewish civilians in Mumbai at the hands of Muslim terrorists perhaps amplified the subtext of the anti-Israel-ists crusade.
Do anti-Zionists condone violence or terrorism to intimidate people from disagreeing with or opposing their dogma?
The anti-Zionists demonstrated no acknowledgment or remorse shown about that, nor was any acknowledment of the mysterious death of the multiculturalist Jewish physician, Dr. Dan Kliman. Known for opposing Islamist-Leftist mis-information rallies against Israel with counter-protests (pictured, courtesy of San Francisco Voice for Israel), Dr. Kliman's body was found this week at the foot of the elevator shaft in the Pacific Arabic Resources School. He took evening classes to learn the Arabic language from Muslim teachers there.
For years, Dr. Kliman voluntarily responded to slanderous, anti-Israel rallys. He reached-out to Muslims and Leftists to achieve mutually respectful resolutions of Muslim-Jewish / Arab-Israeli issues. But (according to the blog "At the back of the Hill") not all Muslims were as respectful towards Dan.
* Dan was very well-known to the other side, his picture was posted on several sites identifying him as a Zionist "conspirator" and one of the lead-activists in the Bay Area.
* He had received several death-threats over the years - he was known by name and address.
* The pro-Palestinian side has often either used violence or threatened to do so - Dan was assaulted several times.
* The building where he was found was where he was taking Arabic classes; there were NO classes that week.
* Several members of the other side also take Arabic classes - that is one of the few schools in the area where Arabic is taught, and there is a constantly changing roster of Israel-haters studying Arabic there.
*The defective elevator had been secured so no one could enter it.
And until the police PROVE that it was an accident, I have to suspect that Dan was jumped by pro-Palestinian opportunists, who knew who he was, that the building was nearly empty, and that they would not soon have so excellent a chance to "get that Zionist!"
Dan was hated. And he was alone in a place frequented by many of his enemies.

Don't try to make Israel your Czechoslovakia, President Bush and Secy Rice.
Holocaust survivor, Mr. Paul Schnek, protests Bush Administration pressure on Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert whose capitulation to reward Jihadist terror with Israeli surrender of land and communities for the establishment of a hostile, Muslim, Palestinian state alongside Israel imperils the West against the Jihad.
Filmed at contra- Annapolis Conference protest outside Israeli Embassy in NYC, organized by Eva Costabel and Buddy Macy.
Mrs. Costabel warns against those, like Arabs and James Baker, who use Jews as scapegoats to manipulate power.
Survivor, Mrs. Costabel, warns Christians not to trust those (like the Nazis and Islamists) that scapegoat the Jewish people (civilization's canary in the coalmine) to implement tyranny. The Nazi's used anti-Judaism to rise to power, which enabled them to kill more than 50 million Christians.
She warns Westerners that Islamists resent Israel as the only modern democracy in the Middle East (which runs against the grain of the Muslim socio-political system of theocracy) which Saudis preach must dominate anywhere Muslims live - including throughout the West.
