Victor Vancier commonly referred to by his Hebrew name, Chaim Ben Pesachis an Orthodox
Jew, creator and director of the United States-based Kahanist organization, Jewish Task Force (JTF) and former active member of the Jewish Defence League (JDL) in the United States.
In 1987, he was convicted of a series of terrorist bombings during his time with the JDL. He served over five years in federal prison for his involvement in 18 bombings in
New York and Washington.
In the context of state comptroller elections, in
one instance, after lauding one candidate, Herbert London, as "a real Jewish
man", he derided London's opponent, an African American, as "a low,
Jew-hating,
Jew-killing cockroach".
He further described attorney general candidate Karen Burstein as a "disgusting, ugly
lesbian".
He continued:
'' The God of Israel will not tolerate homosexuality or lesbianism. It is an abomination onto the Lord... I have a cure for AIDS that doesn't cost one penny. Stop being fags!''
Vancier has referred to Nelson Mandela as a "Black
Nazi", Yasser Arafat as the "Arab Hitler" and a "Muslim terrorist pedophile who died of AIDS". He also uses language such as "schvartze" when referring to African-Americans and "kike" for Jews he considers to be traitors. JTF's messages have been condemned for alleged racism by the Anti-Defamation League and the
Simon Wiesenthal Center.
