Watch: Israel supporters shut down BDS flash mob in London
Arutz Sheva ^ | 17/5/16 | Ari Soffer

Things didn't go quite as planned for a group of anti-Israel activists, who hoped to force the closure of an Israeli-owned shop in honor of "Nakba Day" - the day dedicated to mourning the failure of combined Arab armies to destroy the State of Israel at birth.

Several dozen members of the London Palestine Action organization targeted the Sabon cosmetics store on Sunday, mimicking campaigns by other anti-Israel boycotters - belonging to the so-called Boycott Divestment and Sanctions movement (BDS) - to force the closure of businesses owned by Jewish Israelis.

Among them was a Pamela Hardyment, a pro-Palestinian campaigner notorious for her vicious anti-Semitic invective.

But they weren't prepared for the response by pro-Israel activists, who turned the tables on the BDS flash mob.

Having learned of the event via social media, the Israel Advocacy Movement mobilized far more activists - including a number of pro-Israel Muslims - seriously outnumbering the bewildered group of far-left and Islamist extremists.

Thanks Eleutheria5.
..."Nakba Day" - the day dedicated to mourning the failure of combined Arab armies to destroy the State of Israel at birth.
NICE turning of the tables right there!

Didn’t notice a video. The news itself was heart-warming enough. Thanks for the direct feed.

yes. it is very VERY late in the Jewish diaspora (outside of Israel) for Jews to defend themnselves

they will either start doing it, or die

but Israel will live on....and has a wonderful future!

I've seen that miserable hag before many times. She's essentially a jihadist at this point, like many on the Left. Been at this for decades.

It’s not the first time. There was the Bund, the JDL, Jewish Legion, Hagana, Irgun and Lehi. But it’s the first time that there was an organized stand against BDS creeps, let alone a victorious one.

"Viva Hamas!; Long live Hamas!," she says. I'd love to see her take a trip to Gaza to be with her people. Pam, if you're reading this, don't worry, they'll treat you well. Their comrades ISIS will too.

the most difficult part will not be learning good defense tactics,
the most difficult part will be to recruit (or neutralize) the small number (but very well connected politically nowadays in the O administration at least) Quisling self-hating so-called Jews (JINOs).... who ascribe to communistic or even worse ideologies instead of their ancestral faith.. but who still call themselves Jewish

the Christians and Catholics have exactly parallel wings in their churches... but their basic survival (at least, until the IslamoNazis finish with them) is not in question

it is the JINO self-haters so-called Jews who are among the world’s worst anti_Semites....Nazis in all but name....
their stain has to be cleansed from the body politic
(and they use their Jewish names to confuse good Christians, too)
