Placards from antisemitic marches in London

[BlurredEdges]

I had written this as a response to the other thread which was closed as it was overrun by antisemitic d**ks. As I'm sure this one will be too. They can't allow us to share the truth of what is being said and done in our own home towns and cities.

Look at these images. No, they are not in the minority or unusual. Here are just a few of many, many overtly antisemitic placards from Saturday's protest in London. (And a bonus one from 2021, which the lovely John McDonnell also spoke at.)

This is MY HOME. I am Jewish. My family fled pogroms in Eastern Europe and Nazis in Germany. Those family members who didn't flee were murdered for being Jews. And here we fucking are again. In London. And people defending it.

This is NOTHING TO DO WITH ISRAEL. These are Jew-haters, the faces of hate, the faces of anger and mockery, openly calling for Jews, for me, my family, my children, my parents, to be murdered, in my home city.

And people are defending it. How the fuck do you think we feel?

Eh?!
They are not anti-Semitic at all 🤦🏻‍♀️

@Trulywonderful What have I said here that suggests I lack an understanding of anti-Semitism?

Even the "don't let them do the same again" sign? Are you serious?

@noblegiraffe Not true. And by the way, criticism of Israel is just as legitimate as criticism of any other state. Israel is not immune to criticism just because it defines itself as a Jewish state. Judiasm and Zionism are not the same, as much as some may like to intimidate people into believing.

But since you seem keen on definitions, what would be the appropriate word to describe the people in this video, cheering for the decimation of Gaza?

Omg you’re doing it again.

@noblegiraffe omg doing what?

Trying to derail a thread about antisemitism.

That was a tortured segue and a half.

'To mark Remembrance Sunday, the Jewish community is being invited to lay down Magen David markers in the Field of Remembrance at Westminster Abbey.

The Royal British Legion Field of Remembrance has been overseen by The Poppy Factory since 1928. At this year’s 95th Field of Remembrance, AJEX - the Jewish Military Association will lay 200 Magen David markers that will represent the thousands of Jewish men and women who gave their lives in battle.

A spokesperson for AJEX said: “AJEX would like to lay markers for any family members who served in the British or Commonwealth armed forces and was killed in action.”

The Field of Remembrance at Westminster Abbey will be officially opened on Thursday 9 November and accessible to the public from 1pm to 4pm. From Friday 10 until Sunday 19 November, the field is scheduled to be open from 9am to 4pm, though these times may change.

Keep trying, Truly

@noblegiraffe Not trying to derail anything. But nice way to avoid my question about the people in the video.

With all the talk on this thread about chants and hate speech I was genuinely hoping someone would be able to offer an answer.

Disingenuous.

What happened at school?

Did you mention up thread something about graffiti?

My school has been OK so far. Very multi culture London secondary school that is constantly reminding everyone to be kind to each other even before all this. The trust and SLT have basically not said a word and give off the vibe staff shouldn't either. So nobody is talking about the conflict a school. Which feels odd because we talk about every other event or issue going.

I would have gone for numpty personally

However you were always more mature with your words than me

Did you mention up thread something about graffiti?

Swastikas. We get them occasionally but I've not seen one in a long while so the timing seems raw.

We're doing assemblies on the conflict I think. Not heard anything from the kids about it yet.

This 💯

And now antisemitism doesn't even exist.

Where do these people get off?

Someone holding up a placard about how Jews killed Jesus is anti-Semitic yes.

You do know antisemitism existed before Israel was founded don't you 🙄

I am sure Israel will take you suggestion into account

Now what does this have to do with antisemitism in the UK and Jew hate at marches????

This thread is about antisemitism in the U.K. , if you want to pontificate about your issue's about another country please do so on the countless threads in this section!

The rest of us would like to discuss and stand by our Jewish posters here .

Both the same? Really? Because if the Israeli are making lists of every single Palestian, systematically rounding them up onto cattle trucks and gassing them in their millions, then the world needs to see it. Where's your evidence?

Quite - I recommend folk read that article.

He also says (do read it Rishi, Braverman and other stirrers)
"While there have been arrests on previous protests - including for serious offences - the Met chief told the BBC he would not class the scale as "major disorder".
Useful context.

>>I am now left wondering if your username is just a coincidence considering the some of your posts on different threads 🤔

We have had other posters with usernames that literally what their opinion of Jews are. I am wondering if all very relevant to this thread and posters. So not derailing but highlighting.

Well now we really are in the land of conspiracies/hidden hands. Anything I write can't quell your pondering but it's all quite simple - like most folks my name thought up on a whim, if anything just recalls two cars from family deep history.
So sleep easy
Ford is not a homage to ant-semitism.
Anglia does not mark me as a rabid nationalist.
Harry Potter is not a secret anti semitic text.
Am out of this thread - will leave it to the echo chamber.

Both are definitely NOT the same

I literally attached the link to article to my post for further reading 😶

What an odd response
