hate and stupidity in London

Eyewitness account: Antisemitic hate walks through London once more

Yesterday in London I saw a few thousand people march down Regent Street, past Piccadilly and into Whitehall. All the usual faces were present, hard-core antisemites and Holocaust deniers leading a bunch of foolish sheep. They sang songs about destroying Israel through violence, they held aloft antisemitic signs and they gave antisemitic speeches. The only media that did report it, presented it as some type of peace march. Events such as this show how distorted and dangerous the discussion over Israel and British Jews has become.

The preparation

The Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) set up the event in London. Everyone knows that hate and racism runs through the veins of this organisation. My report into the high levels of antisemitism in the PSC was published in Feb 2017. Last week the Evening Standard published their own expose of the antisemitism in the group. According to all my research, when people who wave the Palestinian flag gather in the UK, at least 40% of them share antisemitic ideologies. For someone like me, seeing thousands walk proudly through London’s streets, an event such as this is truly sickening. Stop the War Coalition and Friends of Al Aqsa also helped organise the event. Buses were arranged nationally and there was talk of this being ‘the largest’ demonstration ever:

London march

In truth, the eventual turn-out was quite poor. I think the organisers knew it was going to be. They made a last-ditch effort to raise numbers by bringing Ahed Tamimi over to London. On Thursday she was pictured at Jordan’s Queen Alia airport and soon after news began to spread that she would attend the demo. When numbers are needed at a rally in London, nothing works like advertising the attendance of a photogenic terrorist sympathiser.

What was horrifying about this event was the high-level support. Everyone knows that the PSC are an organisation riddled with antisemitism – who would align with them? Several MPs chose to, so did Jeremy Corbyn. At a time of well publicised disquiet amongst British Jews, several Members of Parliament actually chose to publicly spit in their faces. Several, like Laura Pidcock uploaded videos urging people to attend:

In the video Pidcock pushes the notion of a two-state solution, all whilst urging people to support organisations that do not. Ignorance and hypocrisy rolled into one. MPs Diane Abbott, Richard Burgon and Lloyd Russell-Moyle even spoke at the event.

The gathering and the ‘Jews in the gutter’

As they usually do – the protestors gather near Broadcasting House, the BBC HQ in Portland Place, London. Part of the ever-present drumbeat suggesting that Israel controls the media:

The person holding the ‘BiBiC’ placard is Palestine Live member Bob Fish. Just in case anyone is any doubt, here is Fish sharing a post about Khazarian Rothschild conspiracy. The article blames everything bad that has happened in the world, including WW2, on the Jews:

A microphone was passed around and several key people spoke as demonstrators gathered. Glyn Secker, a leading member of Jewish Voice for Labour, embarked on an anti-Jewish rant worthy of the most rabid of antisemites, suggesting the Jewish leadership is ‘part of the problem’, talking of them as a ‘5th column’ and even suggesting at one point that Jews are ‘in the gutter’:

The weather didn’t help the organisers. The road between Oxford Circus Station and the meeting point was lined with placards. Trees and lampposts had ‘free Palestine’ signs stacked up against them. Then came the rain, leaving many of them wet and ruined, nothing but litter in the street:

Marching through the streets of London

There were about 3000 people who marched from Portland Place. All the usual faces were there. Elleanne Green, founder of Palestine Live was there, Sarah Wilkinson too.

As the demonstration moved down Regent Street, the person at the very front of the march was Robert Inlakesh:

Here is a reminder of what Inlakesh writes and shares:

That is what leads 1000s of people through London’s streets. There is no need for me to find 100s of such examples – of antisemites who attended this demonstration – this point has been proven far too often to need constantly refreshing. Terrorist supporting Ahed Tamimi stood in the front row of PSC ‘dignitaries’, alongside Kamel Hawwash and Ben Jamal.

And they marched. As they came to Oxford Circus a few counter-protestors stood with the Israeli flag:

London protest

The police protected them from those demonstrators who tried to attack them. At one point I stood and waited to allow the entire demonstration to pass. I wanted to assess the size. At this point I realised that the turn-out was disappointing even with Tamimi present. I filmed the entire procession and it would be possible to head-count, but I would guess that the number of demonstrators was somewhere between three and four thousand. Weeks of planning, the public support of dozens of MPs, a lot of advertising cash and outside of the antisemitic faithful and a few blind sheep, nobody came.

As they passed me, every single group of protestors sang ‘from the river to the sea’ – a blatant call for the destruction of Israel. Many also sang ‘victory to the Intifada’ – open support of violence. This isn’t a peace march at all, nor one that just ‘sympathises’ with Palestinians. This was a march that aligned with radical Islamic terror groups. Supporting their aims and supporting their methods.

The Labour antisemitism issue was never far from the surface either. There were banners that blamed the Jews for antisemitism:

Israel blamed for antisemitism in London

Activists from the new radical splinter group ‘Labour Against Zionist Islamophobic Racism’ or ‘LAZIR’ were busy handing out leaflets (H/T Harry’s Place). Led by Pete Gregson it is one of several fringe groups created by those expelled or suspended by the Labour Party for Antisemitism.

After the London event

The route of the demonstration addresses two antisemitic tropes, walking from one pillar of ‘Zionist control’ – the BBC, to another – ‘Whitehall’. After about two hours of calling for Israel’s destruction, this mob arrived at the final destination and began to gather at the prepared meeting spot. Then the speeches began. Of those that spoke, only one or two made any reference to a  peaceful solution. Most like Tamimi spoke ‘from the river to the sea’. For some of the more insidious content of those speeches, it is worth looking at this Israellycool blog. The people had come to call for the destruction of Israel, they sang, they applauded and then they went home.

Amidst the anger, there were funny moments. Ben Jamal the head of the PSC tweeted out that 10,000 people came. His colleague Hawwash followed the company line:

An outrageous exaggeration but unsurprising perhaps from the leaders of an organisation that survives by telling lies. Then Richard Burgon MP sent out a tweet with a Jordanian rather than Palestinian flag.

But the funny moments cannot soothe the true anger that should be felt here. Take the Guardian’s disgraceful headline in the article they published about the event:

London Guardian report

The Guardian article doesn’t mention antisemitism and even when it does mention that people said ‘Palestine will be free’ – the journalist disgracefully neglects to include the ‘from the river to the sea’ part of the chant. He mentions Tamimi but forgets to address her support of terrorism. A blatant whitewash of a hate group and an example of vile and biased reporting from Mattha Busby.

There is no place on London’s streets for the ‘from the river to the sea’ chant. Thousands of people walked through London’s streets calling for the destruction of the only democracy in the Middle East (from the river to the sea) by violent means (victory to the Intifada) – and not one major news outlet could be bothered to comment on it. Don’t tell me that we are not in dangerous times.

    David, you claim in your blog that the placard(link above) is blaming “the Jews for antisemitism”. A dishonest claim. The placard blames Israel.
    Israel’s actions are giving the state a bad name. The more such as yourself refer to Israel as ‘The Jewish State’ and attempt, dishonestly, to portray the state as ‘the Jews’ when the state actually holds a minority of Jews worldwide, the more the name Jewish will be tarnished and it’s the dishonest, such as yourself, that are helping in that.

  2. Dear David, thank you for this account. Some British ‘antizionists’ now residing in Greece (like a certain K.O. who was abroad Mavi Marmara in May 2010, giving lying ‘testimonies’ to the media) yesterday were talking about ‘tens of thousands of protesters’.
    I see you count them to near 3-4.000.
    By the way, are you aware of this tool which allows us to do the math precisely for every demonstration and count crowds in detail? I guess you’ll come to the same conclusion, considering you have the data for input:

    This is en example only, for a demo in Athens. You’ll get the point, it is very useful for cases like yesterday’s.

    Greetings from Thessaloniki (Salonica), Greece, birthplace of million of Jews until WWII.

    1. “giving lying ‘testimonies’ to the media)”? Specifically, please, Stretch the truth? Whoops should be … Stretch, the truth?

  3. Yes, I saw this and asked our cast-regulars Bellers ‘n Mike, in the previous blog, which ones were they in the film.

    Mike, ever the renaissance man replied “The one in the wheelchair. it’s good for publicity”.

    I sought to clarify whether he was taking the piss out of all of the physically handicapped or just the Jewish ones. I am still awaiting a reply.

    1. Ian, a shot of such featured in the Jewish media recently during a counter demonstration. Did you frown?

      p.s. ‘a shot’ has a different meaning at the fence of course.

      1. So what is the answer to Ian’s perfectly legitimate question?

        Farmer forget your wriggling, your weasel words and your failed attempts at humour.
        I doubt that you will, clearly you are not only a proven anti-Semitic liar, but a spineless coward as well.

        1. Gerald, your hate is showing … again. One of David’s buzzwords, along with rabid and antisemitic. Quite the parrot.

          1. Farmer try answering the question you were asked by Ian?

            Your pathetic attempts to avoid answering the question are predictable, and very ineffective.

            To make it clear Farmer I do not hate you. I regard you the same as a dog turd I see in the street, it and you are a minor inconvenience but I do not hate either of you.

              1. Farmer there is nothing I need add to my post above.
                You have just confirmed my observations about you and your lack of moral fibre.

    2. “Mike Farmer” IS handicapped.

      She’s mentally and morally handicapped.

      Happy Nakba “Mike Farmer”!

  4. All these groups PSC et al, including our own resident ‘gruesome twosome’ Stephen and the retard Farmer, take the same oath every day.

    “I swear to tell the half-truth, very little of the truth and a lot of stuff besides the truth.”

      1. Farmer what would you know about writer’s block, when you are incapable of constructing a grammatic sentence containing any rational thought or truth?

        1. Naw, it IS rational. It’s your dull mind that doesn’t understand the reasoning. Stick with your mantras.

          1. Farmer so tell me who is ‘Marie Farmer’?

            You know the person you post as over on a different website the same time as you’re using the identity ‘Mike Farmer’
            Example below;

            “Marie Farmer

            May 12, 2019 at 1:27 pm

            Fairy stories tend to cause drowsiness, Kou. Yours have the same effect.”

              1. Farmer still waiting for your explanation.

                “Mike Farmer

                May 12, 2019 at 9:16 am

                Zzzz.”

                Oh, did I bore you? An anonymous Nazi who comes onto this board to spew a bunch of anti-Semitic bullshit because Israel makes him do it? Womp womp.

                I can see why you’re bored by the whole thing, der Nazi Farmer. So why do you keep doing it? Is it because you’re a simple buffoon who has no other way to get his tiny weinerschnitzel to feel big and powerful?”

                Reply

                Fairy stories tend to cause drowsiness, Kou. Yours have the same effect.”

                1. Farmer is the question too hard for you to understand or are you frightened of admitting that you are a fraud.

                  Once again are you ‘Mike’ or ‘Marie’ ?

                  1. Whatever Edward wants me to be, I suppose. Does it matter? Nothing to do with Religion.

                    1. Farmer so the undeniable truth is that you are a fraud.

                      Not a surprise given your inability to communicate in a cogent fashion.

  5. Counter chant this…

    From the River to the Sea,
    Pal-e-STINE Will NEVER BE!

    INSHALLAH!

  6. Michael, Your inverted commas are working overtime here.

    You say you come here to prevent people sympathising with Jews and Israel and to counter David. Which of those is achieved by expressing your prejudices towards the physically handicapped?

    1. Whoa, whoa there, Ian. Just a doggone minute.

      I don’t come here to prevent etc….. I come here to highlight David’s double talk and point out his false logic.

      Prejudice against the physically handicapped? ‘Course not. Remember, it’s Israel’s firing squads that shoot them.

  7. The thing that gets me about this long dead, maggot ridden corpse of a theory, about Jews being the descendants of Khazars, is if there were a shred of truth to it, why don’t any Jews look like Khazars?

      1. “and why don’t they look like Arabs?”
        Are you suggesting that all Arabs look alike?
        To use such stereotypes is clear evidence of racism.

        What a disgusting little racist you are ‘Farmer’

          1. Farmer how many times do you need to be told I couldn’t give a rat’s arse about the opinions of a lying, anti-Semitic fraud such as you.

            Now off you trot, put Mummy’s clothes on and pretend you’re ‘Marie Farmer’

              1. Better to be thought bossy, than to be like you Farmer. An ignorant, anti-Semitic liar, and fraud who attempts to mislead by using different names

                  1. Seems Farmer doesn’t understand the truth.

                    More likely as the truth, historical fact and logic do not fit in with Farmer’s pre-set and warped agenda he tries to twist them or when that fails he/she ignores them.

                    Still no explanation about why you think it is acceptable to attempt to fraudulently use different names.

                    1. “or not to use your full name, Gerald”

                      Farmer you can try to divert attention away from your pathetic attempt to use different names, as much as you like but it is not working.

                      You have exposed yourself as a fraud as well as an anti-Semitic liar.

                      Congratulations Farmer on getting both feet at the same time in your mouth.

  8. Sorry Michael but once again we use your own words. When i asked which one was you at the event your reply was “The one in the wheelchair. it’s good for publicity”. It’s over on the previous blog in your name.

    So clear this up. Are you prejudiced against all physically handicapped people, just the Jewish ones or are you admitting that putting someone in a wheelchair in front of the guards at a militarised international border is good publicity for terrorists ?

      1. So in that famous picture of the guy being wheeled in his chair to our militarized borderline why was the Hamas guy pushing him hiding behind the back rest? You first say it’s good publicity then you say it isn’t. Was he as confused as you?

        1. Read the text, AND the questions that I replied to…. in the context. Try to understand the English … you seem unable to.

  9. Funny how the way they need to legitimize their existance is by the use of Jews to show how ‘liberal’ they are
    Whenever ‘Naturei Karta’ and a few other ‘as a jew’ Jews stand up and start speaking, everyone sits up and ‘takes notice’ and cheers/applauds wildly
    The same few Jews repeating the same tired propoganda year in, year out; and the same people cheering that tired old message
    Never quite sure whether to find it sad and/or funny

    A good book ro read on these ‘progressive anti-Jew/Zionist’ types is Tuvia Tenenboms book; ‘The Lies They Tell’.
    It’s about America, but the anti-Jew/Israel/Zionist thinking that is prevalent in the ‘lefy liberal neo-fascist progresive left wing’ is dealt with in a very humourous way

    1. The book agrees with your thinking? How comforting for you, Richard. Sleep well.

    1. “This place is a fucking nut house. I love it.”

      Doubtless, Stephen, that is because you feel at home in ‘a fucking nut house’
      Reading your posts and looking at your excruciatingly poor website, we can all see why you feel at home in such a place.

        1. “David is wondering if you are paying him a compliment or not”
          Stephen taken up mind-reading now as a hobby have you?

          Good idea to try and read somebody’s mind that has something worth reading in it. Can you imagine trying to read your mind Stephen? What a waste of 10 seconds that would be.

          1. Come come, Gerald. Forget the mind-reading. You (and Ian et al.) can’t even read plain English and understand what I am saying. Instead the stock jibe of antisemitism is all David’s pupils can parrot.

            1. Farmer let me know the next time you write anything in ‘plain English’, it will be the first time.

              Now who are you pretending to be now ‘Mike Farmer’, or have you put on Mummy’s clothes and are you pretending to be ‘Marie Farmer’?

              1. See, you pay attention to the name but lack comprehension and common sense to understand the posts. Useless.

                1. As once again you are trying to avoid answering a direct question put to you, I will ask it again, and again and again if necessary.

                  Now who are you pretending to be now ‘Mike Farmer’, or have you put on Mummy’s clothes and are you pretending to be ‘Marie Farmer’?

                    1. Still failing badly in your attempts to avoid answering the question why you fraudulently use different names Farmer.

                      The content of your posts have never had credibility. Now even the name you use has lost all credibility as well.

                    2. “I’m a tease perhaps?”

                      No, Farmer you are a proven anti-Semitic liar and fraud.

                    3. “you are a proven anti-Semitic ..”

                      … and your ‘proof’? PUBLISH IT.

                    4. ” “you are a proven anti-Semitic ..”

                      … and your ‘proof’? PUBLISH IT.”

                      Farmer are you stupid and can’t read your own posts, or are your posts so poor that you do not want to read them yourself?

                      The proof of your anti-Semitism is PUBLSHED right in front of your eyes in the content and intent of your ‘posts’ here and on other websites.
                      Your lack of ability to express a cogent thought, the same.
                      Your shameful ignorance of history, the same.
                      Your disconnection from the truth and, it has to be said, sanity the same.

                      The evidence that you are a complete waste of genetic material is left wherever you go, like the trail of slime left by a slug.

    1. Hey Bellers. Mike, doing his best Frankie Boyle shtick said he was the one in the wheelchair. Bet you didn’t show. Hard won freedoms are one thing. Getting piss wet through at the weekend is another eh? Lucky I know you better than your own wife.

      1. Summer Rains just drench you in the UK. In Gaza many civilians died during Israel’s Summer Rains.
