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?

Back to London, someone's home:

I presume the Jewish bloke was trying to ask these girls a question about why they are protesting or something about the conflict. However what happens next with is pretty typical of how these things go if you question protesters.

Yes saw that last night

Just around the corner from where the protesters were letting off flares outside a synagogue someone posted (I have no idea if those incidents were that close because I haven't checked locations. However both are pretty serious Jew hate and nothing to do with Israel)

With luck they'll find her and she'll go to prison, I wouldn't hold my breath though. Imagine people like that walking about, people who want all Jewish people to be killed. She could have Jewish neighbours, Jewish colleagues. Its terrifying.

Like someone on there saying it’s only on MN that Jewish people are “claiming” to be scared.

Or all the people claiming they can’t see any antisemitism in what is being said. Or that they were there and didn’t see anything. As if that makes what is undeniably happening any better or less worrying.

You must feel like you are going mad.

You can clearly hear him asking "How old was Aisha?", which is an Islamophobic trope used by racists to try and imply that the prophet was a paedophile.

The group of women have nothing to do with the antisemite who walks by making vile statements, evidenced by the very London wtf side eye they give her. The British Transport police is investigating her hate speech.

That isn't a trope it is in the desciption in Quran that she was very young, so a fact. However I have listened again and yes he is obviously asking ridiculous wind up. Definitely shouldn't have asked girls that. questions. No need for it.

The video is here to highlight what happened next though. Which is pretty bad in anyone's books.

As a Jew living and working in London during the protests it often feels like you would feel if this was your town:

Well her face is very clearly displayed on BTPs twitter and I'm sure that the social media will collectively identify her.

By trope I meant that it's something that English Defence league/Tommy Robinson types use to be "acceptably" racist to Muslims, which it looks like that bloke was trying to do.

Oh yes it is a horrible thing to be going on about to a group of young ladies.

It is however something I have debated about with Muslim friends but we talk about such issues with all three Abrahamic books. So very different conversation and not one aimed at winding anyone up

I am actually stunned at the idea EDL or Tommy know anything about it. They don't strike me as very bookie people. Suppose someone mentioned it and they have used it since.

Yes the police are using facial recognition technology with social media. So bound to track her down from that. Else clear enough image for neighbour, college, workmate etc to identify and give her name to the police

Wish the police hadn't announced using facial recognition technology with social media to identify. Since they did we have more people covering their faces. Last week the police did get a court order saying they could remove and confiscate face coverings in Trafalgar Square that evening. However that isn't very easy to do.

Just seen footage from a pro-Palestine rally in New York and I would say that it was explicitly pro-Hamas. The speaker was absolutely batshit and scary but also a complete hypocrite. If the land belongs to indigenous peoples, why is an Israeli a settler-colonialist but a non-indigenous American not a settler-colonialist? At least Jewish people are indigenous to the region and many of them have family connections there going back far longer than non-indigenous families have lived in America. If indigenous land rights are the only thing that counts then let's apply that everywhere and face the consequences.

@EsmaCannonball well quite. Imagine taking that to its logical conclusion and deporting anyone non-indigenous from the UK and Europe - or by Hamas' playbook, I suppose we'd have to try and kill them all.
Sounds pretty hideous if we make the comparison really.

Just because it’s from a ‘website that promotes Zionist propaganda’ as you call it, doesn’t mean it’s not true.
Btw, Zionism is simply believing Israel has a right to exist.
Do you not believe that Israel has a right to exist?
Maybe think about that before throwing around cheap racist tropes.

Tommy Robinson isn't thick. It would be a mistake to underestimate him in that way.

I totally agree with you - you are right but you will not convince others to admit it.
We know the truth.

Tommy Robinson isn't thick. It would be a mistake to underestimate him in that way.

I suppose my instincts are to right people like him off as just knuckle heads. However he has managed to build up quite a following. Therefore I suppose he is similar to Andrew Tate in that he uses what intelligence he has to manipulate and panda to peoples own inner iffyness.

yes @Trulywonderful
where are you?
have you observed the demos, including yesterday?
or are we just in the world of twattersurfing?

@andmeandmeandme well said.

This 100%

Are you in Devon by any chance?

That hate filled man was shouting his hate on the streets of London. He is quite happy and means quite emboldened shouting his hatred towards Jewish people.

We see you. The country needs to wake up and stamp out hatred like this.

Actually no. I visited during thd storm Cairan (I think it was called that?)

Have a second home here.
