Around 3% of Muslim children attend full-time Islamic schools. Roughly 70% of Jewish children attend Jewish schools.
Yet only Muslims are constantly lectured about “integration”.
Funny that.
This shit is exactly why I despise anyone who pretends that there is “antisemitism” on the left, and anyone who does should never be taken seriously again
It’s a complete joke. If anything the left in the west is wayyyy too concerned with Jewish feelings
The more children Israel kills, the more unpopular it becomes. The more unpopular Israel becomes, the more violently we are throat-fucked with the narrative that "antisemitism" is a major problem in our society.
The UK's Department for Education has released a 107-page review which asserts that much more needs to be done to protect Jewish students in England from discrimination. Which in and of itself sounds reasonable, until you look at the actual document.
The review, led by Sir David Bell, mentions the word "political" or "geopolitical" no fewer than 125 times. It mentions the word "Israel" or "Israeli" 60 times and the word "Palestine" or "Palestinian" 35 times.
So, as always, it is clear that this isn't actually about protecting a religious minority from persecution.
The Bell review lists 27 recommendations for dealing with "antisemitism" in English schools, which the government has reportedly accepted in their entirety. The first recommendation is adopting the hotly disputed International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism which lists common criticisms of the state of Israel as hateful toward Jews.
Under the IHRA definition, you are guilty of antisemitism if you compare the modern state of Israel to Nazi Germany, or if you say that Israel exists as a racist endeavor. This framing effectively brands anyone a hateful bigot who agrees with the unanimous consensus of international human rights groups that Israel is a genocidal apartheid state.
"Anti-Israel attitudes have distinctly increased over time," the review says. "In 2020, 23% agreed with the statement 'Israel treats the Palestinians like the Nazis treated the Jews', which increased to 45% in 2025. The prevalence of beliefs such as these, which could be regarded as antisemitic according to the IHRA definition, demonstrate the difficulty faced by schools and colleges in tackling antisemitism."
Under the section titled "Political expression and pupil wellbeing in schools," the review scorned the use of "political identifiers" in schools such as "badges, flags, or other political symbols and slogans such as ‘Free Palestine’, including staff displaying Palestinian flags in their classrooms without relevance to the lesson."
"It is the view of this review that political identifiers do not have a place in our schools," the report reads, while stopping short of saying such expression should be banned in all instances.
"Political expression by staff can create a learning environment in which some learners feel distressed, excluded, or unable to engage fully with their education," the review asserts. "In such circumstances, colleges may be justified in placing proportionate restrictions on lawful political expression where this is necessary to ensure learners' education and fulfil the college’s wider duties."
"In practice, antisemitism is frequently intertwined with political views about a nation state or political ideology. This means that challenging antisemitism often requires teachers to address or correct political claims or misinformation, which can appear to conflict with impartiality duties," the review says.
This uncritical assertion that "antisemitism is frequently intertwined with political views about a nation state or political ideology" tells you everything you need to know about what this review is really designed to accomplish. This is about stomping out political speech that is critical of Israel, and nothing else.
The review of course also attempts to conflate antizionism with antisemitism, saying, "Antizionists can express views that include a deep hatred for the existence of Israel and of those who believe in its right to exist as a Jewish homeland. Such views may be antisemitic, in certain contexts. There are also examples where Zionism is used as a synonym for ‘Jewish’ to hide antiJewish hatred within lawful political expression."
I am so fucking sick of this shit. People who live in Israel's western allied states are getting bludgeoned and bludgeoned and bludgeoned by these ham-fisted psychological operations by state and non-state actors with more and more aggression the more Israel's popularity rating goes down the tubes, and it's not even working. The way these freaks keep trying to stick their rapey fingers into our minds and manipulate the thoughts we think about a genocidal apartheid state is fucking disgusting. It's only making everyone hate Israel more.
29 students.
That's the total number of Jewish students in the Bell report who said they've experienced antisemitism.
29.
Meanwhile, 30 Palestinians have been reported murdered by Israel in the past 10 days.
This is big.
The UK’s National Security Advisor had nothing to do with banning Palestine Action as terrorists.
Even though the question of terrorism is at the core of his job.
So who did push the proscription of Palestine Action?
The walls are closing in.
The best part of this video, or maybe the second best, is the applause and the others on stage who spontaneously know which side they're on. This is what the Zionists fear the most, and Calgary Opera has decided to try and stop -- that support and love for Palestine.
@JesseBrown@nccm The important thing is that we need to address anti-Semetism by pointing out that Judaism is a beautiful religion and that Zionism is a racist ethnocolonial political ideology.
If you can differentiate between the KKK & Christians, you can differentiate between Zionists & Jews.
Carney and Trump agree on 90% of issues, but many Canadians just don't see it
One silver lining is that in many polls, the NDP is recovering, even as the Liberals remain strong because they've taken right-wing voters from the conservatives
This shows that progressives ARE moving off the LPC, even if only partially
I missed that Chrystia Freeland has gone on from Canada's Deputy PM to serving the govt of Ukraine, the country where her real passion lies
Freeland infamously led a standing ovation in parliament for a veteran of the Galicia SS – the same Nazi division her Ukrainian grandfather recruited for
"Two weeks ago, one of Canada’s largest newspapers published what read a whole lot like an incitement to violence against NDP Leader Avi Lewis, prompting widespread condemnation. Yet for some reason, there continues to be all but radio silence from mainstream Canadian media."
Dear Israel supporters who talk so much about Jewish Safety and call Palestinians terrorists: A Jewish American woman was attacked by Jewish Israeli settler-terrorists. Her life was saved by Palestinians. Hope this helps.
The third largest city in Canada just rejected the cryptocurrency clown and his billionaire pro cop council and swung hard left.
You're looking at a mix of communists, socialists, soc dems, progressives, and a liberal or two here
