Once again, President Trump is attaching himself to the words of the Bible by passing an executive order which explicitly enacts God\u2019s promise to Abraham; the Jews are a nation. One prominent American Israeli rabbi noted the sole Biblical character who referred to Judaism as a religion; Haman.<\/p>\n

President Trump announced that he will be signing an executive order on Wednesday intended to withhold federal funding as a means of forcing universities to cope with growing anti-Semitism on campus. First reported in the New York Times<\/i><\/a>, the order will effectively define Judaism as a race or nationality and not just a religion.<\/p>\n

The order empowers the Education Department as described in Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964<\/a> which allows the department to withhold funding from any college or educational program that discriminates \u201con the ground of race, color, or national origin.\u201d Religion was not included among the protected categories, so Mr. Trump\u2019s order will have the effect of embracing an argument that Jews are a people or a race with a collective national origin in the Middle East.<\/p>\n

The new executive order will be based on the State Department\u2019s definition of anti-Semitism <\/a>which includes a section on anti-Semitism relative to Israel based on the three \u2018D\u2019s\u2019: Demonization, Double-Standard, and Delegitimization.<\/p>\n
