As Hasan Picker and Cenk Uygur are denied entry to the UK, it’s worth remembering that Isaac Herzog — accused of “direct and public incitement to commit genocide” by the UN Commission of Inquiry report — was welcomed by Keir Starmer on the steps of No10 in September.

Streeting clearly said what he did to help Reform win the by-election.

A good critique of @bartov_omer’s book on Israel by @martinshawx, who argues, rightly, for the defeat of the US and Israel.

[Martin Shaw @martinshawx]

I wrote about Omer Bartov's book, Israel: What Went Wrong?

Note how @JustinOnWeb tries to shield @metpoliceuk from accusations of political policing by claiming that the reason they refused to allow the annual Nakba Day march to finish, as usual, in Whitehall was that they were already in discussions with @TRobinsonNewEra .

[Ben Jamal @BenJamal48]

Watching this and then seeing @TiceRichard and @Nigel_Farage invited to the rally against antisemitism today brought to mind the article by Liz Fekete at the height of the Labour antisemitism crisis. In it she warned about the bifurcation of a true anti racist struggle.

@BenJamalpsc Solidarity Ben. You have made such a contribution to this historic movement. It has been great to have the opportunity to work with you. Best to you and the family

The Times’ front page this morning: “British Jews face greatest ever threat”. A few hours ago, they published this cartoon with a vile representation of @ZackPolanski. The hypocrisy is sickening; the antisemitism real.

[Ben Lorber @BenLorber8]

This is the logical kernel of Carlson’s antisemitism, and it proves Edward Said’s point that Orientalism is the ‘strange secret sharer of Western anti-semitism’. The barbarism of modern warfare is displaced onto the Jewish ‘East’ to exculpate the Christian ‘West ‘

[Ben Jamal @BenJamal48]

The clear meaning in Rowleys statement and this follows up is that we deliberately intend to be near synagogues. The reality is we choose routes of political significance such as BBC snd seek to vary them to prevent disruption to a single location. Rowley knows this. Retract.

[Ben Jamal @BenJamal48]

There is another issue not sufficiently commented on. At every march there is a counter demo usually led by @StopTheHate_UK . They insist in being placed close to the march. We have documented numerous incidents of racist abuse directed at marchers and reported them.

[Ben Jamal @BenJamal48]

Leave aside the lie that the marches call for violence against Jews.. what she is also saying is that chants of " who the f.. is Allah," " Muslim scum off our streets" and " Shove Palestine up your a..." are not targeting hate at anyone. She's unfit for any public office.

[Ben Jamal @BenJamal48]

The call for marches to be banned is such an obvious attempt to use acts of racist violence against Jews to suppress the right to protest Israeli racist violence against Palestinians that in a functioning democratic society it would not be worthy of comment.

Trevor Phillips about Mandelson last Sept: "I was his friend & remain his friends & will continue to be his friend & I'm, if I may put it this way, mildly disgusted by the people who have spent the last few yrs saying what a fantastic person he is.. who are now running for cover"

@JohnWRees @ShabbirLakha We remember that it was the Weimar Republic’s equivalent of the Tories who let Hitler in, paving the way for the Third Reich.

[Pablo Giachello @pablogiachello]

Hoy llegué a Buenos Aires, tras el secuestro por parte del sionismo en aguas internacionales, de la flotilla Global Sumud. Un secuestro a 700 millas de la Palestina ocupada, con el total colaboracionismo de los Estados europeos, particularmente de Grecia.
Este es un capitulo en la larga historia de lucha del pueblo palestino y de los pueblos solidarios. Pero el capítulo final está por escribirse y es que Palestina será libre del río al mar

[NaomiFromKent @NaomiFromKent]

Dangerously irresponsible of Rowley. Jews on the marches can testify none have passed by any synagogue, nor were they ever intended to. Pro-Palestinian protest is directed at Israel, not Jews. Rowley is stoking Jewish fear. He must retract.

[Ben Jamal @BenJamal48]

The valiant warrior against racism who today invited onto his show a notorious Islamophobe and anti Palestinian racist who believes there is no occupation and the Palestinian people are an invention. Beyond shameful.

[Michael Rosen 💙💙🎓🎓 NICE 爷爷 @MichaelRosenYes]

@DPJHodges An anti-Muslim march is an anti-Muslim march because the people on the march say that they are anti-Muslim. The pro-Palestine marches are pro-Palestine. It's you and others saying that pro-Palestine is 'anti-Jewish' but that involves conflating 'Israel' with 'Jewish'.

[NaomiFromKent @NaomiFromKent]

The Jewish Bloc will be on this march as on all previous demonstrations against the annihilation of the Palestinian people and our government's complicity in it. Calls to suppress solidarity with Palestine in the name of Jewish safety implicate Jews in Israel's crimes. Banning protests may increase antisemitism; it will not curb it. @JVoiceLiberatio
