Rachel Reeves not only conflates the evil of antisemitism with what she describes as “anti-Zionism” and “anti-Israeli feeling”, demanding police crackdowns on both.

She suggests that’s “been allowed to flourish in some communities”.

Who is she referring to here?

[Newham Independents 💛 @NewhamIndParty]

“Nothing to see here, we merely pleaded with the speaker… Nobody threatened him.

It’s those protestors, asking us to stand up against the horrors being carried out in Gaza that are the problem.”

Hat tip to @Agitate4Change

[Muslim Association of Britain (MAB) @MABOnline1]

More proof of the deep rooted structural and institutional Islamophobia withing the Conservative Party.

No mention of Anderson's Islamophobic remarks nor acknowledgement of the shocking rise of Islamophobia.

“We've committed no crime, we will take further action.”

Dr Ranjeet Brar, an NHS surgeon, and fellow activists were exonerated of all charges stemming from their 25th November arrest for disseminating Zionism-related literature.

[Ben Jamal @BenJamal48]

Zionism is a political ideology that says that Israel has the right to maintain itself as a state which privileges the rights of Jewish people over indigenous Palestinians. To be anti zionist is to oppose that and the ethnic cleansing inspired and justified by Zionism.

[Ashok Kumar @comrade_kumar_]

This is fucking insane and dangerous. Rachel Reeves tells labour friends of Israel that she’ll prosecute those with “anti-zionism and anti-Israel feeling that is allowed to flourish in some communities”

We know exactly who she means by “SOME COMMUNITIES”

[Roshan M Salih @RmSalih]

What has happened to Sky News presenter @belledonati since this excellent interview she conducted with the Israeli Knesset member Danny Danon?

She seems to have completely disappeared from the screen since the Israelis complained about her behaviour.

@SkyNews seems to have capitulated to Israeli pressure. They need to clarify the situation.

A pig’s head & a brick were thrown through the window of a Muslim family’s house in Blackburn

The family who have lived there for 50 years were left ‘extremely distressed’

Vital that the perpetrators are brought to justice & hoping the family are okay!

@OwenJones84 Why don’t the politicians simply say “Of course there’s a genocide, of course Israel must stop”.

Why not?

It’s self evidently true.

Why do they persist in a nonsensical lie which is damaging them severely?

It makes no sense to me.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Wondering where this insane 'Islamists are running the UK' narrative is coming from?

Politicians and media outlets are conspiring to demonise protests against Israel's slaughter of Gaza as a dangerous, hateful mob of extremists.

But this is belied by the facts: there is only ever a tiny handful of arrests - less than, say, a major football match.

So you end up then having to invent a conspiracy theory.

The real reason for the tiny number of arrests isn't because the protests aren't actually a dangerous, hateful rabble - it's because the Metropolitan Police is kowtowing to a powerful Islamist movement.

(The fact the Met is institutionally racist is a slightly inconvenient fact in all of this).

They basically think - or pretend to think - the Met should be mass arresting the protesters. The Met aren't doing this because, well, even they need to normally find at least some rationale to arrest people.

[Miqdaad Versi @miqdaad]

Is he serious?

"Genuinely racist and anti-Muslim slurs are very rare in British public debate"

I guess it is the Editor of the Spectator, who publishes articles by Rod Liddle and Douglas Murray.

[Tiberius @tiberiusfiles]

Self-immolation is widely recognised as the most extreme form of protest possible—to publicly destroy one’s own life in the most violent and extreme way is a stark warning for society to pay attention, as it has already crossed a line.

Now, two US citizens have self-immolated over the US-backed Israeli genocide in Gaza in less than three months. The first was dismissed as antisemitism, the second is already being labelled as a ‘mental health issue.’

Our society is broken in the most disturbing of ways. Those with their fingers on the levers of power are guilty of the most heinous of crimes—crimes that reveal a deep psychopathic sickness at the heart of government. And the gatekeepers of truth, our media body, collude with them to cover up these sick and twisted crimes.

We must not let them. We must continue to speak truth, loudly and constantly, and work tirelessly to inform one another of the criminals in power and their depraved actions. We need to fight against this disgusting narrative of lies and death, before it kills us all.

If only we had the same moral clarity and courage from a Westminster party leader 👇

[Philip Proudfoot @PhilipProudfoot]

The media are just going to allow Labour to position itself as “warriors against Islamophobia” now — aren’t they? Nobody will ask them about the Forde report, which found anti-black and Islamophobic racism is not taken seriously within the Labour Party. Love our journalists ❤️

Haaretz: Israeli man who escaped Nova electronic music festival on October 7 was killed by kibbutz security, which mistook him for a Hamas militant

Don't look away

[Lowkey @Lowkey0nline]

A US soldier in his uniform has self-immolated outside the Israeli Embassy in Washington to protest against Israel's genocidal war in Gaza.

@aaron_a_t You took out a dozen birds with one stone here, great fucking work.

[Aaron A @aaron_a_t]

Israel: we decided to put Palestinians in gas chambers.

Congress: here is Zyklon B gas.

Blinken: Israel assured us they will use gas for cooking only.

Biden: We expect gas chambers not to be overcrowded. We will provide humanitarian last meal.

CNN: Israel is defending itself.

Arab leaders:

EU leaders: whatever US says.

NYT: a million Palestinians allegedly die from fume inhalation.

@AuschwitzMuseum: blocked you.

Ivy League Jewish students: we are the real victims. Nothing compares to the horrors we endured when students chanted “free Palestine”.
