A new report in The New York Times takes a deep dive into Project Esther, a policy blueprint to crush the pro-Palestinian movement in the United States from the Heritage Foundation, the right-wing think tank best known for spearheading Project 2025. Project Esther was formed during the Biden administration and lays out plans for surveilling, silencing and punishing pro-Palestinian activists, including deporting non-U.S. citizens and withholding funds from universities. Many of the Heritage Foundation’s proposals appear to have been taken up by the Trump administration.
“Project Esther aims to rebrand all critics of Israel and pro-Palestinian protesters as providing material support for terrorism,” says investigative reporter Katie Baker. “They’re very explicit that this is what they’re doing. … This is all laid out online, and it has been for months.”
They’ve been doing this my whole life & it is very effective. With all that Holocaust education growing up & then to claim someone hates Jews for criticizing Israel, many people are too naive to understand manipulation tactics.
The current government of Israel does the most harm to Jews. They frequently talk and act like they own all the politicians. They claim if you speak out you’ll never get a job again. The mainstream media also demonstrates an obvious bias & perpetuates their propaganda.
