Jewish Democrats are hopeful today that with U.S. funding to Israel ending and AIPAC politically diminished and no longer funding candidates, the hatred will stop. Here in Canada we have no AIPAC equivalent, and our funding to Israel is insignificant. The hatred is worse.

Yes, I am saying the Nakba never happened. Palestinians tried to kill their Jewish neighbors. They lost. They were not invited back. That’s not a tragedy. It’s the consequences of Jew hate.

In Gaza, Jews get decapitated and their bodies are torn into trophies for Palestinians. In Israel, Arabs get to vote. I’m tired of listening to progressives with no education beyond Twitter claiming Palestinians are the oppressed ones.

Always happy to rebut mendacious anti-semitic activism
Watch the full video here: youtube.com/watch?v=Cqf5dOvZ… We got a furious response from the former Conservative minister Lord Michael Gove when we asked about his position on Israel at the Labour Conference. Gove claimed he knew more about antisemitism than Zack Polanski, the only Jewish leader of a major political party in the UK. He also accused us of not being journalists and of an obsession with Israel, despite the Labour government's change in position on the occupation of Palestine being the key topic at this year's conference. Gove now sits in the House of Lords and is editor of right-wing magazine The Spectator.

Antisemites so badly want there to be a genocide in Gaza so they can justify another genocide of Jews.
Current deaths in conflicts around the world. That one at the bottom is the "genocide" the whole world must stop by ruining Ed Sheeran tours and abusing Jewish kids in Golders Green.

Eric Hoffer wrote this article about Israel almost 60 years go. It reads like it was written yesterday. "The Jews are a peculiar people: things permitted to other nations are forbidden to the Jews. Other nations drive out thousands, even millions of people and there is no refugee problem. Russia did it, Poland and Czechoslovakia did it, Turkey threw out a million Greeks, and Algeria a million Frenchmen. Indonesia threw out heaven knows how many Chinese-and no one says a word about refugees. But in the case of Israel the displaced Arabs have become eternal refugees. Everyone insists that Israel must take back every single Arab. Arnold Toynbee calls the displacement of the Arabs an atrocity greater than any committed by the Nazis. Other nations when victorious on the battlefield dictate peace terms. But when Israel is victorious it must sue for peace. Everyone expects the Jews to be the only real Christians in this world. Other nations when they are defeated survive and recover but should Israel be defeated it would be destroyed. Had Nasser triumphed last June he would have wiped Israel off the map, and no one would have lifted a finger to save the Jews. No commitment to the Jews by any government, including our own, is worth the paper it is written on. There is a cry of outrage all over the world when people die in Vietnam or when two Negroes are executed in Rhodesia. But when Hitler slaughtered Jews no one remonstrated with him. The Swedes, who are ready to break of diplomatic relations with America because of what we do in Vietnam, did not let out a peep when Hitler was slaughtering Jews. They sent Hitler choice iron ore, and ball bearings, and serviced his troop trains to Norway. The Jews are alone in the world. If Israel survives, it will be solely because of Jewish efforts. And Jewish resources. Yet at this moment Israel is our only reliable and unconditional ally. We can rely more on Israel than Israel can rely on us. And one has only to imagine what would have happened last summer had the Arabs and their Russian backers won the war to realize how vital the survival of Israel is to America and the West in general. I have a premonition that will not leave me; as it goes with Israel so will it go with all of us. Should Israel perish the holocaust will be upon us."

The stats I gave you from the Home Office records for 2024-25 where Jews were 8.8 times more likely than Muslims to be victims of a hate crime. Here are the proportions for previous years: 2023-24: Jews 12.1 times more likely 2022-23: Jews 6.2 times more likely 2021-22 (so entirely before October 7): Jews 6.3 times more likely 2020-21: Jews 6.7 times more likely Yes, there's been an increase. But Jews have always been far more likely than any other group to be the victims of a hate crime. And what do UK Jews have to do with the war (it's not a genocide by any measure) in Israel? Not only are you blaming the victims but for something that makes no sense. You're not antisemitic. You're antizionist. It's a different form of Jew-hate. You're not accusing non-Jewish "Zionists" of "genocide," now, are you?

We call on France to exercise restraint when dispersing the freedom fighters on the streets of Paris. These brave warriors for justice must receive immediate humanitarian aid, and their safety must be guaranteed in accordance with international law. Failure to comply will leave us no choice but to bring a case before the ICJ, in close cooperation with that renowned champion of human rights, Afghanistan.

One million Jewish cildren were murdered in the Holocaust. Between July and November 1942, during operation Reinhard 430,000 Jews were killed each month. Read some actual history.
Replying to @simon_schama
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The image misleads by averaging ~127 children killed daily at Auschwitz over 5 years. Official records show ~232,000 children and youth deported there (most Jewish ones gassed immediately upon arrival); Holocaust totals reached up to 1.5 million Jewish children murdered. auschwitz.org/en/history/fat… encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/art…

Palestine Central Bureau of Statistics states population of Gaza before October 7th at 2.2 million; 2026 at 2.1 million. Of course there has been atrocious brutality and tragedy, during the war, not least because Hamas fought it in a densely populated civilian area. But this is not a genocide. The loss is 4.55% of the Gaza population. 70% of Tutsis were murdered in that genocide; probably 75% of Ottoman Armenians in the massacres, famine an death marches; 66% of European Jews in the war. Please read some history

So is it only a Genocide if those on the recieving end are Jewish? Come on @simon_schama I expected far better from you!

Hola, soy palestino. 🇵🇸 Y como la honestidad es poco común en mi política, permítanme confesar algunas cosas. 1947. La ONU me ofreció un estado. Junto a Israel. Fronteras, independencia, reconocimiento. Dije que no. Mis líderes prometieron que la guerra "arrojaría a los judíos al mar". En cambio, lo perdí todo y lo llamaron catástrofe. No porque no me ofrecieran un estado, sino porque lo rechacé. 1948–2025. Los estados árabes podrían haberme integrado, dado derechos, pasaportes, dignidad. En cambio, me encerraron en campos de refugiados durante generaciones, para que siguiera siendo un arma contra Israel. Construyeron palacios para ellos y cárceles para mí. Me usaron como propaganda, no como personas. 1967. Tras otra guerra perdida, podría haber construido un estado en Cisjordania y Gaza. En cambio, insistí en "ni paz, ni reconocimiento, ni negociaciones". Tres noes. Cincuenta años después, sigo sin Estado. Resulta que el rechazo no paga el alquiler. Oslo, década de 1990. Israel dijo: «Intentémoslo». Me dio autonomía. Armas para la policía. Miles de millones en ayuda. ¿Qué hicieron mis líderes? Robaron el dinero, armaron milicias y lanzaron una intifada. Atentados suicidas en lugar de escuelas. Cohetes en lugar de fábricas. Gaza, 2005. Israel se fue por completo. Sin colonos, sin soldados. Tuve la oportunidad de convertir Gaza en un Singapur mediterráneo. Voté por Hamás. La convirtieron en Mogadiscio junto al mar. ¿Miles de millones en ayuda? Túneles, cohetes y palacios para sus líderes, mientras mi gente come comida enlatada en la oscuridad. ¿Democracia? No he tenido elecciones en casi 20 años. Hamás mata a los disidentes en Gaza. Fatah los encarcela en Cisjordania. Mis líderes cancelan elecciones porque están demasiado ocupados luchando por el poder. Religión. En lugar de construir un futuro, pongo a clérigos en televisión enseñando a los niños a odiar a los judíos. Glorifico a los "mártires" que hacen estallar autobuses. Crío a mis hijos con canciones de sangre y fuego en lugar de libros y ciencia. Cambio la esperanza por la guerra santa. Mundo árabe. Los regímenes árabes me llaman "hermano". Pero pregúntenles cuántos palestinos pueden vivir libremente en Líbano, Siria, Egipto o Kuwait. Me excluyen, pero celebran mi muerte, porque mi muerte es su excusa. Absurdo. Sigo diciendo que quiero "construir un estado". E irónicamente, justo al lado está Israel: el vecino que construyó una democracia próspera, una potencia tecnológica, granjas en el desierto, ciudades de polvo. Sin petróleo, sin riqueza infinita, solo coraje. Podría haber aprendido, copiado, colaborado. En cambio, elegí la envidia y la rabia. Obsesión antijudía. Podría haber aceptado a los judíos como vecinos. Podría haber dicho: "Dos naciones, dos estados". En cambio, repito: "Del río al mar". En lugar de exhibir el honor, la hospitalidad y la rica cultura árabe, mostré solo la cultura de la espada: la ira, el extremismo y la sangre. En lugar de gritar salaam (paz) a los israelíes, grité muerte a los judíos. Y luego finjo sorprenderme cuando los israelíes no confían en mí, cuando están enojados, decepcionados y convencidos de que no quiero coexistencia en absoluto. Responsabilidad. Culpo a Israel de todo. Siempre. ¿Mis líderes roban miles de millones? Culpa de Israel. ¿Hamás dispara cohetes desde hospitales? Culpa de Israel. ¿Glorifico la muerte más que la vida? Culpa de Israel. La responsabilidad no es mi fuerte. Soy palestino. Podría haber construido una nación, muchas veces. Elegí el rechazo, la corrupción y la guerra sin fin. Podría haber vivido en paz con Israel, pero elegí vivir a la sombra de su destrucción. Así que sí, soy una víctima. Pero con demasiada frecuencia, soy víctima de mis propios líderes, de mis propias decisiones y de mi propia negativa a abandonar el odio. Y esa, querido lector, es la tragedia que nadie quiere admitir.

This is hilarious. They rushed to recognise a mythical state of Palestine before even the most basic conditions were present. Shame on all the woke Western governments that took part in this charade.

Where’s the outrage?! Oh yes it’s because Jews can’t be blamed.
President Mahmoud Abbas postponed what would have been the first Palestinian elections in nearly 20 years, issuing a decree on Friday to further delay voting for the Palestinian Legislative Council almost another year. cbsn.ws/4rVLDOK

Very powerful letter from Highgate Synagogue to Mark Blake, the Green leader of Haringey council. He tells them he is ‘embarassed’ by the ‘Zionism is racism’ motion. This synagogue, where I saw British/ Israeli @EmilyDamari1 being welcomed has responded in blistering form: ‘If this motion does not mean that Jews in Haringey who have family or friends in Israel, or who attend our synagogue, or who maybe aren't religious but believe that there is a place for a haven for the tattered remnant of the most persecuted race on earth, are considered by you and your party as racists and by implication fair game for ostracism, intimidation, violence or worse, please explain to us what else it means. ‘And if that is indeed what it means, and we are pretty sure that those who voted for it believe that is precisely what it means, how can we as Jews feel safe when the largest party of the borough we live in, entirely peacefully up to now, publicly align yourself with the most virulent jew-hating racists of all, Hamas and the Nazis. ‘As it is, despite living in one of the most peaceful and crime free parts of the borough, we have had as a synagogue to invest substantial sums in building terrorism-proof fences round our premises, and employ both volunteers and professional security with stab vests to ensure we can continue to function not just as a place of worship but as a focus for our community. ‘In addition to our daily threat of the kind of lethal attacks we saw in Manchester and closer to home in Golders Green, we are having to cope with myriad, not so trivial, microaggressions such that our elderly are frightened to identify as Jewish when going into an NHS hospital, parents are worried about sending their children to universities for fear of the abuse they are likely to receive, and young Jews starting their careers are hiding their identity in case it damages their prospects or leads to ostracism and abuse in the workplace. ‘That is a direct result of you and your comrades' obsessive and ignorantly one-sided view of one of the world's most intractable conflicts and your determination to bring that obsession into every facet of life here in Britain.’

Note to broadcast journalists interviewing Zack Polanski; Don’t forget to challenge him on his lies - this is also your job. So when he says 75,000 ‘murdered in Gaza’ point out that figure from Hamas includes terrorists and people who died of natural causes. When he says ‘genocide’ point out this has not been found by any court and is denied. Particularly as the population of Gaza is now higher than it was. When he talks about child amputees point out that officials have strangely not highlighted child amputees in any other war, including wars where more than 10x the number were killed. When he talks about the ‘ongoing genocide’ remind him that Hamas was meant to disarm a year ago and still hasn’t. Don’t let him just come on and spout his lies.

After the Green Party's "Zionism is Racism" vote, the Leader of Haringey Council, which is controlled by the Greens, wrote to various Synagogues in the borough to "reassure" them. I want to show you Highgate Synagogue's reply. I believe it is worth reading in its entirety.
