Israeli officials rip ‘weak’ UK government for Manchester synagogue attack: ‘Failed to…curb this toxic wave of antisemitism’
New York Post ^ | Oct. 2, 2025

Multiple Israeli government officials are blaming the current United Kingdom leadership, led by Prime Minister Keir Starmer, for the deadly terrorist attack against a Manchester synagogue on Yom Kippur after issuing repeated warnings about rising antisemitism.

A rogue terrorist killed two worshippers and injured multiple others outside the packed Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue in Manchester on Thursday.

The assailant — later identified as 35-year-old British citizen Jihad Al-Shamie — was shot and killed by police while he was trying to break into the synagogue after plowing a car through pedestrians and stabbing a security guard. Frantic officers tried to usher onlookers away as they warned the suspect “has a bomb.”

The feared explosives latched to his belt were deemed “not viable,” authorities later clarified.

Politicians near and far were quick to condemn the vile attack, but Israeli officials took it a step further and pinned blame on the British government for failing to stamp out antisemitic extremism within its borders.

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar called out Starmer’s leadership directly and asserted that the Jewish community expects “a change of course” away from “anti-Israeli incitement.”

“The truth must be told: blatant and rampant antisemitic and anti-Israeli incitement, as well as calls of support for terror, have recently become a widespread phenomenon in the streets of London, in cities across Britain, and on its campuses. The authorities in Britain have failed to take the necessary action to curb this toxic wave of antisemitism and have effectively allowed it to persist,” he wrote on X.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu alluded to the UK’s “weakness” against terrorism, which he said invited the massacre.

Lotta good it will do. How about taking out a few of those hummus-eaters on British soil? That will get their attention but as for their approval-does it matter?

Sorry, British Jews. As the kids might say, the UK government is just not into you.

I suppose you good folks could hunker down, and wait for a Reform government. But that’s a long way off. 2029 at the earliest.

😟

Jews should stay away from Clifford’s Tower in York.

I’ve said before, the Islamic- loving government in England doesn’t even care for English little girls and women. They will happily serve them on a platter to demonic Muslim men to be raped and murdered. They certainly aren’t going to care for Jews and/or Israel.

This has been noted and commented on since the 90s but here is an updated look into whether Muslim-loving King Chuck is actually a convert:

Most of us have heard these rumours prior and understood he’s always been a complete dolt, but this helps to further understand about the mindset of the “elite” if their own King is not only an advocate but a convert.

Calling this “weakness” assumes that the government doesn’t support what’s happening.

From that article in 2006, it just sounds to me that he is being woke. In other words, he’s trying to be “cool”.

Israel certainly did its part in filling Europe with anti-Semitic Muslims.

In the video I posted examining this subject he was quoted from a speech in the 1990s promoting Sharia Law. That was well before all this modern woke and the Islamics having such a large footprint in the UK. I think it’s more than appearances and intellectual interest.
