British citizens think worse of Israel than they do about any other non-European country except for North Korea, a British survey published this week found.

Answering the question "Which of the following do you feel especially unfavorable toward?" 35 percent named Israel – scoring two points worse than Iran, the poll found.

With 47 percent, North Korea won the worst score, the Chathan House-YouGov poll found.

Britons overall, or immigrants?

That’s pretty disgusting.

The world is heading headlong into another dark, dark time.

American Revolution - the gift that keeps on giving.

Britons are disarmed & helpless. We’re not.

UK sick Very very very sick Patent Rot in the church leadership Who would have ever believed ??? . And of course the ruling elite class of UK as a whole has sold the place out. Same combination of destructive forces in France USA and Belgium etc. The regular people do not deserve this ( except that we've allowed it to be done to us --- ruling elites are not loyal to their peoples - or at least these rulers aren't --- they're only acting for their own personal monetary profit and to Hell with their nations and citizens/ subjects/ Sheeple ). Can the islamonazis be sent home or is all lost ? Answer: the ruling elites still being allowing them to flood in every single day so --- so😢😢😢😢😢😢

This is a worldwide spiritual problem.

This is Satan at work.

We should start gun-running to the ACTUAL PEOPLE of the UK.

The Brits for all their “CiviliSation” have several fatal flaws:

1) History of Antisemitism.

2) History of cuddling up to the “Mohammedans” (even young Winston Churchill considered converting to Islam in his youth).

3) History of elites practicing Homosexualism at all boys elite schools - identifying with Arab Gay behavior example T.E, Lawrence during WWI.

4) Locked into “Lost Empriritis” - longing for the “good old days” and missing sponsoring the “Arab Revolt”, 1916.

This is why they love to still view Israel as British Mandate Palestine and when they visit Israel, they identify with the Arabs by wearing the PLO headdress “Kaffiyah” whilst sipping black coffee with Cardomom in some smokey, Old city alley way. How romantic, how T.E. Lawrence-like!

5) Resentful of those “stubborn” Jews who, were not SUPPOSED to beat the Arabs in 1948, help boot them out of Palestine, while ignoring casualties inflicted on British forces by the Arabs, hence they always talk about the bombing of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem by Jewish “terrorists” like Menachem Begin while ignoring the Arab REVOLT 1935-1940 in Palestine as war clouds gathered in Europe.

6) Ignoring the fact that the Arabs sided with Hitler in WWII and the Jews fought in the British Army's “Jewish Brigade”.

7) Succumbing to the total Islamization of British society.

Is that a language similar to English?

I wonder if this result is replicated in other European countries. No doubt, some Britons hold a grudge from incidents like the King David Hotel massacre, before Israel was formed. On the other hand, most British probably no longer hold the Blitz against Germany.

Another dynamic is as the percentage of the Muslim population increases, they are forced to coddle, accommodate and identify with them even more. It’s a vicious circle. That is, until civil war finally breaks out.

I’m surprised that the British attitude toward Israel wasn’t even worse than it is given the constant barrage of anti-Israel, anti-Zionist, anti-Semitic propaganda that the BBC spews forth every day. The BBC, Britain’s primary news outlet, with its cloak of respectability and fair-mindedness is, in many ways, worse than Al-Jazeera. There is no more anti-Semitic national news organization in the world than the BBC.

Civil War is being optimistic. Wasn't it Churchill who called “Appeasement” like the crocodile that swallows it's victim after pacification and appeasement?

“Answering the question “Which of the following do you feel especially unfavorable toward?” 35 percent named Israel – scoring two points worse than Iran, the poll found.”

Just out of curiosity. How many other countries were on the list of choices, and which ones were actually listed? The results of the survey would probably be a whole lot different if it were an open ended question where the respondent had to supply the answer without any prompting.

Amazing what Seventy years of misinformation, peddled through the TV and Public Education system, by a severely inbred ruling elite can create isn`t it.?

Winston Churchill considered converting to Islam

Churchill no more considered converting to Islam than does your local Shriners Temple.

In recent findings, Churchill’s sister implored him not to convert to Islam. I found this very hard to believe as well but it seems that he was indeed considering it in his wild youth...look it up.

Oswald Mosley was a significant British political figure in the 1930s.
Britain's anti-semitism has a long history.

Yeah...the extent that PC has psychologically disarmed Western culture remains to be seen. At some point, there will be armed resistance, though calling it a civil war might be a stretch.
