If Not Now, is an anti-Israel BDS group, whose gimmick is pretending it’s an organization of “Jewish youth.” (In reality, many of its members are not Jewish and it’s a typical far leftist organization.) There was a period when If Not Now pretended that it was something other than a fan club for Hamas or anyone killing Jews.

Then Oct 7 came around and If Not Now issued a statement declaring that, “we cannot and will not say today’s actions by Palestinian militants are unprovoked” and “their blood is on the hands of the Israeli government.”

But after the Chanukah massacre in Sydney, If Not Now popped up again, not just to blame Israel “Benjamin Netanyahu and other demagogues are seeking to exploit these 15 deaths, and our fear and heartbreak, for their own agendas, by offering us an empty promise of Jewish safety through walls, weapons, and repression”, but to reject any kind of communal self-defense or even calling the police.
