Anti Semetism IS happening

and in my opinion it's a direct result of people turning a blind eye to and excusing the horror of hamas and everything they stand for. It's allowed open season on anti Jewish hate. This has happened TODAY in France.

@MrTiddlesTheCat oh OK! So by the logic of Israel.... maybe they should blow up everywhere there a protest is happening because hamas is there too! Because that their argument for everything....

Doesn't that sound stupid!

There are certainly ill minded people, anti-Semitic people, and those with extremist interest who have joined the march. There is no denying they are there. They are virtually nothing in a sea of 500,000 people who are marching for Gaza to live. Simply live. Not from the river to the sea. Not at with the annihilation of Israel.

Many who attend aren’t even partially versed on the drawn out conflict between Israeli and Palestinian governments through the decades. But people do see the suffering right now through war on Gaza, which is a sustained attack on innocent people, which is - and I stress this point - supported by our government. The vast majority of marchers want the war to stop. They are lobbying their government to do that.

If our governments supported an ongoing bombardment of Israel, you can bet 500,000 people would turn up to support the existence of Israel. I absolutely would be one of them.

This. ❤

The people calling out the peace marchers as Hamas supporters and oh so ironically turning a blind eye to genocide are the ones full of hate. So sad.

They're organised by supporters and members of Hamas to advance the aims of Hamas. One of the aims of Hamas is the obliteration of the jewish people. You don't get more antisemitic than that.

If you can look at the brutal and racist torture, rape and murder of children, women and men on October 7th and your reaction is to turn your face away from those victims so totally that you immediately, even when the Jewish community is reeling and traumatized, go on a march for another group of people, then you have so dehumanized the Jewish people that you think they are not deserving of caring or concern no matter what brutality befalls them. Then yes, you have, even if unconsciously, absorbed an anti-Semitic worldview.

I mean honestly, this post is like buzzword bingo of cliches. No need for arguments. Just shout out ‘genocide!’ And ‘haters!’ ( 100 bonus points for that one as the ultimate sign of a non-thinking tribe follower). You need to add in ‘nazi’ and ‘fascist’ for a full house there!

Yes, what's happening in the Gaza strip is hilarious.
A piece of god-forsaken land much smaller than London. With no safe place to be.
Ha bloody ha to your game of bingo.

It’s extremely offensive to call Gaza a piece of godforsaken land.

Apologies if offence caused. It feels god-forsaken at the moment was my intention.

aswarmofmidges · 09/11/2023 18:16

How would you describe the killing of over ten thousand people in a few short weeks, around half children , without using words like horrific ?

Xenia · 09/11/2023 18:46

May be the answer is atheism. If Palestinians abandoned their non existent God and saw the light all this would go away. Perhaps nothing and no one is Godsorsaken and it is the invented Gods of the Middle East of Christians, Jews and Muslims which is the core issue - religion as devil, extremism coming from religion as moral wrong.

Anyway like all things this will end and as said above hopefully the police can keep Hamas extremists away from the 67m British remembering their war dead.

Completely agree about what you said about the religion.

Religion is wrong - all religions. No one religion is any better than another. Am very happy being an atheist.

Not convinced on that one

It's human nature

I hate what Hamas have done, I hate what Israel are doing now. I have no interest in anyone’s religion, I will call out these sort of actions regardless of who is carrying them out.

Calling out Hamas doesn’t make me anti-Muslim. Calling out Israel does not make me anti-Semitic.

Just tell me something OP. What do you think should be done about the illegal settlements, those ones which are against international law but allowed by your Leader and defended by armed settlers and actual soldiers?

I am horrified by the actions of the israeli goverment - and deeply saddened that a little girl in my wider family has received anti semetic remarks in the playground, she's english/we are in england, it's so sad. Anti-Semetism/Islamaphobia/Any racism makes me extra angry when it's aimed at little kids :(

I just watched an old man who lost his parents when the were slaughtered during the holocaust with over 5 million other Jewish people.

His name Kurt Marx , he said that he doesn't understand the hate. He said 'I don't think we have learned anything really (since the holocaust) it's the hatred that's instilled in young people in general. They are being brainwashed. This hatred is perpetuated.'

XRAYTHIS · 23/11/2023 23:19

The Palestinian lady suggested that the land is shared if Hamas are defeated (she didn't think it was likely they would be) in a democracy going forward.

Pinkdressinggownbelt · 24/11/2023 00:44

Every time I hear the Israeli ambassador lady on the radio I have to wrestle with my self against anti semitic feelings same with the Israeli pm It’s very hard to listen to their “fighting” talk against the backdrop of the horror going on in Gaza ,and not feel very negative emotions for them and anyone who supports them.we are not seeing dead bodies of Hamas terrorists, we are seeing dead children. And videos of Palestinian kids who want to kill Jews. Are the children Hamas? And if so, is the solution to bomb them all to death ? Before all this I largely didn’t give that region much thought, but this “war” is so unbalanced. I’m struggling not to be anti semitic now, I try to keep in mind the Jewish people I know and never had a problem with before . To me from the river to the sea doesn’t mean no Israel, it means Israel has to share that land it was bestowed by UK etc, with the previous owners in a gracious manner, not in an entitled Bible Says So kind of way . Have less land, squish up, whatever. Be thankful and not bullying It’s disgusting to watch people so sinned against relishing their chance to do same to others and try to gaslight the world. Despite what world leaders say, general populations round the world can see this is so so wrong Shame on Israel

You need to watch the clip on BBC catch up or iplayer.

He was talking about the hatred TO Jewish people in general. He lived in the UK. The hatred towards Jewish people which has perpetuated since the holocaust.

You immediately go on about killing and ethnically cleansing Palestinians. Thus old man in the UK has killed no one! You are showing your anti semitism and seeing all Jewish people as one mass. Do you not realise that Jewish people are all individuals. You appear to be suffering from the brainwashing hatred that he was talking about. Hatred towards Jews. Wow.
