Peter Beinart, a one state solution and the Jewish far-left

Peter Beinart recently wrote an article of Jewish surrender that was published in Jewish Currents. Falling over itself, the New York Times rushed to publish an abbreviated version to ensure the piece was given a much wider audience. Beinart  The thrust of the Beinart argument is simple. Beinart used to believe in a Jewish state – he doesn’t anymore, and as he lives in his … Continue reading Peter Beinart, a one state solution and the Jewish far-left

IHRC Al Quds 2020 – terrorists, extremists, antisemites and violence

The IHRC Al Quds Day 2020 was like no other. If you doubt that the BDS movement supports violence, seeks to destroy Israel and wants to rid the Middle East of Jews, then you should sit through the whole toxic 150 minutes of this online event like I did. Each year, the Islamic Human Rights Commission (IHRC) are given permission to hold a radical Islamist … Continue reading IHRC Al Quds 2020 – terrorists, extremists, antisemites and violence

Fighting the academic demonisation of Israel in schools

How do you deal with historical distortion in academic  textbooks and propaganda in schools and universities? I would argue that if you want to really fight this fight, then you have to begin by understanding just how widespread the problem really is. (On Wednesday I spoke as part of a panel on anti-Zionist, antisemitic propaganda in schools. The event was organised and chaired by UK … Continue reading Fighting the academic demonisation of Israel in schools

How the Jewish Diaspora let down its own children

My politics are Israeli politics and a lot of the discourse that takes place in the UK, also takes place in Israel. Dinner tables, ‘ul ha esh’ (BBQ), restaurant gatherings, pubs, coffee shops or even in a taxi, these are all places where vibrant and agitated political disagreements take place. Everyone in Israel is a budding Prime Minister. So let us not pretend for a … Continue reading How the Jewish Diaspora let down its own children

Palestinian refugees and UNRWA – it is time to tell the truth

In May 2016 I spoke at a panel event on the possibility of a two state solution. My talk focused on the key issue of the entire conflict – the reason the ‘Palestinian refugee’ situation can never end. At the time I called for the ridiculous definition of a Palestinian refugee to be thrown into the dustbin of history and for UNRWA to be scrapped … Continue reading Palestinian refugees and UNRWA – it is time to tell the truth

Antisemitism in the age of the Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic

My father-in-law recently died alone in a hospital room. His body remained in the hospital until it could be removed by a special Coronavirus team. His funeral was a lonely one and my wife was unable to travel to say her goodbyes. It was his failing heart that certainly killed him, but at the time, he was under suspicion of carrying the virus, having come … Continue reading Antisemitism in the age of the Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic

Hamas antisemitic propaganda story taught in our schools

The Times ran an exclusive in May 2018 about a young child, an aspiring footballer in Gaza being shot whilst playing football with his friends. A few months later the World Health Organisation (WHO) published an embellished version on their website -having the Israeli soldier deliberately shoot the child after a face-to-face confrontation. Schools provides the WHO story as a key case study for students … Continue reading Hamas antisemitic propaganda story taught in our schools

Funded by the EU, driven by Palestinians. BDS activism in EU clothing.

Those of us involved in fighting back against spreading antisemitism and the lies about Israel understand that the deeper we dig – the more unbelievable the situation becomes. As I said to someone yesterday when news broke of a UK KS3 schoolbook which suggests the creation of Israel may be behind the 9/11 attacks – nothing surprises me anymore. There are no limits to the … Continue reading Funded by the EU, driven by Palestinians. BDS activism in EU clothing.

Amnesty International- from bias to obsession – the report

My report into Amnesty International is now published and the 200-page analysis is available as a PDF for download. This research was some of the most challenging I have undertaken. I linked to dozens of Amnesty social media accounts and monitored the output of over 40 staff / volunteers.  Many of the case studies concern people who are (or were) instrumental in directing Amnesty’s focus. … Continue reading Amnesty International- from bias to obsession – the report

The BBC can only find Christmas trees in ‘Palestine’

On 5th December, BBC Newsround published a page titled ‘Christmas trees from around the world.’ If the BBC take it down, the page is archived. It was published on their Newsround pages and is explicitly targeted at children. The item is intended to raise the Christmas spirit and brings images of impressive Christmas trees across the world. So far, so good. Until you look at … Continue reading The BBC can only find Christmas trees in ‘Palestine’
