Maybe I’m just severely naive but I’m honestly just shocked at the levels of racism of some of the signs at these marches. It’s just caught me really, really off guard.

Jewish journalists from @BBCNews told they can’t march against antisemitism on Sunday because it’s controversial.

'Tomorrow Hizb ut Tahrir will be holding a demonstration at the Egyptian embassy in London.

At their previous demonstration jihad was called for.

Here's their leader saying of the Hamas attacks "they lie they say that this was terror, a lie, this was resistance!" '

I think some posters should find out what the Neteuri Karta believe. Especially about what they will do at the end of time.

That will stop people cheering on the fact they are on marches😂

its almost like people are grabbing things from social media without any idea at all of what they're reading or who the people/groups are they're sharing.

@25milesfromhome exactly.

This is not the standpoint of the Orthodox Jewish community, this is the Neteuri Karta, a tiny fringe sect who do not represent the Jewish community, Zionism or Jewish values in any way.

There has been a lot of discussion here about Zionism
Here is an article written from the standpoint of the Orthodox Jewish community on Zionism ….

Yes so it does seem a little naïve. Now, I am not of course, suggesting of course, that the poster is not genuine or Jewish but I am a little dubious at "I was there too and being Jewish was with many male Jewish protesters who were wearing their kippah. I also saw a few Orthodox Jews and a few rabbis as well."

See - I really don't think that there would have been Rabbis and orthodox Jews out on Shabbat for obvious reasons and obviously presenting as Jewish in crowds like this. I haven't seen any photos of Saturday marches with Orthodox Jews and not saying there aren't any and this didn't happen.

I have also read a few posts on other boards with "I am Jewish...but" and then follow up with some rather surprising anti-Semitic sounding comments. I haven't seen many posts where posters say " I am Muslim" for example, but I am sure there are...

There were definitely orthodox Jewish people at the marches.
Heres one picture ( there are many) from the Times of Israel taken at the 11th November March.

Oh I saw that earlier

Not sure the thinking behind using Just stop oli tactics. This type of stunt just just annoys the general public and loses support for a cause.

Mr Rich said: "We can't control what happens in a conflict thousands of miles away, but we can influence what happens here and how people in London respond to that.
"We can set an example and we can try and influence our own communities and wider society."

@3and2ready this was what you said the evil in this Zionist’s eyes.
thats worse, theres no reason to connect the fact he's evil with being zionist. you could have simply said 'man'.

The vast majority of jewish people in Israel are zionist. Do you know what the word means? It doesn't seem like many people actually do.

Show quote history

Yes I know what it means and I stand behind what I said in my post that it is an ideology. I understand that many Jews are also Zionists but that, in and of itself, does not mean criticism of Zionism or even individual Zionists like Stuart Seldowitz automatically equates to antisemitism.

You seem more offended by how @3and2ready described him than the filth that came out of his mouth.

good to know he’s now been arrested and charged with hate crimes.
