How quickly Great Britain is descending into darkness. Those who have been appointed to defend her are the ones most responsible for their nation’s certain future of chaos and violence. And the British intelligentsia, as they head to their own destruction and that of their nation, will congratulate themselves that they didn’t give way to the temptation of “Islamophobia.”
It used to be that the free world stood together and said, “Never again.” Now a cowed, dhimmi, dying Britain bows low before arrogant and aggressive Islamic supremacists and says, “How about another round?”
“Letters: Ancient hatred stalks the land once more,” The Independent, August 15, 2014:
I’m just an ordinary middle-aged Londoner.
I work in an office. I go to football. I like eating out. I enjoy the arts. I am a proud family man. I give up time for charity work. I try to be a decent contributing member of society. I pay my taxes honestly. But there appears to be something that sets me and my kind apart.
At park gates in East London a friend of mine gets told to f**k off for photographing a flag. At a pub in Bath my wife gets called scum when she mentions her background. In a student hall in Manchester a friend’s son is asked to leave as the specially prepared food he chose to eat is not permitted because it carries a label written in a language used by a country that is “banned” by the student union.
In Belfast a historic blue plaque is removed to deny part of my history. In theatres in Edinburgh and London I am told to denounce my opinions or lose the right to perform. A sportsman in Ireland tweets if he sees my kind he’ll punch us in the face and recommends others follow suit.
Protesters across the country show no shame in shouting that my historical persecutors were right and social media is rife with vitriol towards me (even from so-called friends). And in Bradford I’m told that I am not even permitted to enter the city.
What is this? Racism. Where is this? Britain and Ireland. When is this? Now. Who am I? I am a Jew.
Never again, we say, never again.

Mom predicted this 30 years ago.
As Europe contracepted and aborted itself into oblivion, it also was welcoming Islamist immigrants, who are all about procreating, unabated.
Yep. I have Euro friends who become rabidly irrational over Israel, which represents their most socially acceptable form of hatred against Jews.
They’d say they are merely anti-Zionist, but their eyes about bug out when they say it.
That whole “I’m not anti-semitic, just anti-Zionist” thing is a crock of s—t.
Jews out of Europe. I hope they come here. And I assume they won’t be as stupid as American Jews voting for holocaust-loving democrats.
Euro-friends? EWWWWW.
Eurabia ping
Many French Jews are already coming here. The numbers are way up, I think it will take much more unrest to push English Jews out.
SO.
Have you learned your lessons. And how are you fighting back?
Are you waiting for outside interference, yet again?

Have been watching the WGN series "Manhattan" and doing some background reading. The Ashkenzai Jews from northern, and later eastern Europe were part of the massive immigration wave into the U.S. between 1890-1927. They brought their ideas of trade unions and socialism/communism with them. Many of the European and American nuclear scientists who worked on the Manhattan Project were Jewish, atheistic, and strong believers in socialism.
I see no reason why their heirs in Europe would be any different today.
The UK is supposedly less than 5% Muslim and look at the effect they can have, just like gays who are less than 2%.
Normal people need to allowing themselves to be railroaded by the freaks of society
Saaayyy, wait a minute... Isn’t this anti-Jew activity just another form of RACISM? Smells like it to me!
England is welcoming the jihadis with open arms. It is bringing about its own demise. Anybody who talks about it is put in jail.
Goodbye England.
It doesn’t surprise me that French Jews are out in front on this but I wonder if others might start following along sooner than you think. As bad as we are, electing a muzzle-loving pResident, I think we are still light years ahead of Europe.
As disgusting as these incidents are, do not let them fool you into think the UK has collectively gone anti-Semitic.
These vile acts are the acts of a obsessed and vocal minority, both Muslim and hard leftist groups, who don’t speak for the majority of British people. Some British people may very well have issues with Israel and the Gaza issue, but they do not condone such naked anti-Semitism and bigotry.
Couple of notes:
1—The plaque in Belfast was removed because it was damaged by bigots or yobs, not taken down because of any decision. Once repaired, its going back up as I understand.
2—Bradford was one bigot of an MP (currently being investigated by police for said comments) telling Jews not to come. A call which has been ignored. And has appalled many even on the left.
As appalling as the incidents mentioned are, I would be remiss if I didn’t balance things out by pointing this out:
The 2014 ADL antisemitism study has found that Britain is the 6th LEAST anti-Semitic country in the world. America the 7th.
So, for all the appalling incidents mentioned, they are truly a minority of bigots in a land where anti-Semitism IS a minor problem.
Britain is NOT an anti-Semitic nation, and as we see, LESS so than the US. Neither nation of which any sane person would suggest is anti-Semitic as a whole.
These vile acts are the acts of a obsessed and vocal minority, -
And violent.
One thing I have noticed from my Krav Maga class is that most members of it are resolutely pro-Israel, and I’m not sure it is a coincidence. Krav has grown in popularity greatly since I started only 3 years ago. I think it would be in Israel’s best interests to promote Krav internationally, it is not just an effective self defence system (handy for anyone who might end up in fisticuffs with a typically violent pro pal thug), it is in my opinion, Israel’s greatest cultural export.
