A Sainsbury's branch emptied its kosher food shelf after the manager feared anti-Israeli protesters outside would attack it, the supermarket giant has said.
Meats, cheeses and sauces were removed from a Sainsbury's Local branch in Holborn, central London, as it was picketed by demonstrators who were calling on the grocer to boycott Israeli goods.
The incident yesterday afternoon happened on the same day anti-Israeli activists 'wreaked havoc' at a Birmingham branch of Tesco when a demonstration got out of hand.
Actor Colin Appleby took a photo of the empty shelf, prompting uproar online as hundreds condemned the grocer for appearing to succumb to the demands of the protesters.
People also pointed out that many of the goods were not from Israel and instead came from nations including Britain and Poland.

Some are apparently not too bright.
Just because something is kosher doesn’t mean it comes from Israel or are made by a Jewish company.
Now on these newly emptied shelves, they can start selling burkhas!
There’s no problem with halal food, right?
Good excuse to boycott Israeli goods.
I was just thinking about those. Yum!
Step 1: Demand the removal of all kosher food.
Step 2: Demand that all remaining food be halal.
I shudder to think what Step 3 will be.
Does Sainsbury’s now get to hang a banner, “JUDENREIN,” outside its shops now? .__.
They make some good ‘dawgs’.
Whoops, I mean “JUDENFREI” (Jew-free).
I mixed up by putting REIN (pure) in there. I know I’ve seen soap that was marked (in German) as being made from “pure Jewish blood” or some such horror.
3. Profit !!
You think they care or that it matters?
We had our ‘fair share’ last night!
Can there be any doubt that anti-Semites of Europe are now disguising their Jew-hatred by claiming just to be anti-Israel?
Time for the Jews to get a supplier and trade between them selves and cut out the merchant.
“Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few. All hearts go out to the fighter pilots, whose brilliant actions we see with our own eyes day after day but we must never forget that all the time, night after night, month after month, our bomber squadrons travel far into Germany, find their targets in the darkness by the highest navigational skill, aims their attacks, often under the heaviest fire, often at serious loss, with deliberate, careful precision, and inflict shattering blows upon the whole of the technical and war-making structure of the Nazi power.”—Winston Churchill
Sorry, Winston, it looks like their sacrifices were in vain, after all.

Nope.
