The Iranian regime sets its Hezbollah dogs on Israel, then , Israel responds, then blames Israel. Who funds the Hezbollah army within the Lebanese state 🤔
Based on Mr. Aoun's comments, one would think it's Iran that has occupied 1/5 of Lebanon, displaced 1/4 of Lebanese and bombing his country on daily basis. Had Lebanon been bargaining chip for Iran, we'd have a deal long ago. Save Lebanon from your real foe, Mr. President.

Iran has just been nominated to preside over the UN Committee for the protection of women's rights, human rights, and the prevention of terrorism. YES, IRAN. And it was supported by the United Kingdom, Spain, and France. This is not a joke. It's real. - @isaacrrr7

Imagine if, during Black History Month, the British Museum advertised an event about ancient black civilisations in Africa, and it had to be postponed because racists planned to disrupt the event. That’s what just happened, but to Jews. everydayhate.substack.com/p/…

Never actually seen his face before. But his name will always resonate with a moment a patient revealed to me, having been spared death, she saw him each morning on the daily line up and described the unspeakable horrors she saw him perpetrate

Interesting, simple, insightful.
I attended the Unite The Kingdom rally today to do interviews with participants and understand, in their own words, why they were there. While I found some of the speakers addressing the rally genuinely abhorrent, the people I spoke to were quite decidedly… not. (1/7)

😂 This “Nakba Survivor” is literally a “European settler” In the late 19th century, Muslim Bosnians (including Inea’s grandparents), fled Bosnia to Ottoman Syria, after Austria-Hungary took control of Bosnia. They feared that now, the Christians will seek revenge after years of mistreatment. Inea’s father’s family lived in Tulkaram, but he himself lived in Jerusalem where Inea was born. In the 1930’s, Inea’s father had a Job in England, he returned to Mandatory Palestine after a few years, but in 1948 they decided to move back to England. They were not expelled, and no one forced them to move to England. As a matter of fact, Tulkaram, and the old city of Jerusalem remained under Jordanian Arab control. Not a single Zionist to bee seen there. So in summary, this is a European with no strong roots in the land of Israel, whose family made the decision to immigrate back to the continent of their grandparents instead of remaining under Arab control. (And the “visit Palestine” poster on her wall is a Zionist poster by Franz Kraus to encourage Zionist tourism to the holy land. It’s not even the original poster, but a replica of the poster, with an additional Hebrew description mentioning his name 🤦‍♂️)
Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed. Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us — one of home, tradition and memory over generations.

I can't help thinking that if the British Government brought the energy it has to prevent the "far right" from entering the country to preventing illegal immigrants from entering the country there might not be a "far right" in the first place.

Replying to @JoosyJew
More Jews. Around 700,000–750,000 Palestinians were displaced during the 1948 war. Roughly 850,000 Jews were expelled or fled Arab/Muslim countries in the same period and immediate aftermath (peaking 1948–1951), with nearly all their property seized. Israel absorbed the Jewish refugees; Arab states largely did not absorb the Palestinian ones.

After losing World War II, Germany lost 25% of its territory and 14 million Germans were ethnically cleansed from Eastern Europe. And yet there hasn’t been a single case of Germans hijacking planes, blowing themselves up, or committing terrorist attacks like Palestinians.

Eyal Waldman hired 20 engineers in Gaza, donated $360K to a Gaza hospital, and spent years building partnerships toward between Israeli and Palestinians. Pro-Palestinian protesters screamed “murderer” at him in Venice this week. His daughter was killed at Nova on October 7.

It’s all too clear that a country in which Jews are attacked on the streets simply because they are Jewish, synagogues need to employ security, & anti-Semitic slogans & images are paraded through city centres or exhibited in art galleries is exactly what we’ve become.
Here come the cliches….. ‘This is not who we are as country’ ‘this has no place in british society’ and the rest…. Aptly done @JewishNewsUK
