Speakers at a Wednesday evening University of London Student Union (ULSU)-sponsored panel called for the destruction of Israel as a solution to ridding the world of antisemitism, The Algemeiner has learned from a British watchdog group.
According to a UK Media Watch report, several panelists issued the calls during an event centered on the theme of antisemitism in the Labour Party and how the current scandal is being used to silence critics of Israel and bring down party leader Jeremy Corbyn. A leaflet handed out at the beginning of the panel, titled “Labour Jews Assert,” stated, “some people…are wielding ‘antisemitism’ allegations as a stick to beat the Corbyn leadership.”
Speaker Tariq Ali — a British Pakistani writer, journalist and filmmaker, who is an outspoken supporter of Hamas — said the annihilation of Israel would greatly benefit both Palestinians and Israelis. Antisemitism, according to Ali, is a result of the creation of a Jewish state, and once Israel is wiped off the map, antisemitism will disappear. Ali’s calls for a one-state solution were seconded by fellow speaker John Rose, a notorious anti-Israel and anti-Zionist author.
Ali also accused Israel of branding those who criticize the country as antisemites, stating, “This is not a decision that was taken here [in Britain] or in Washington, DC. This was a decision that was taken by the Israeli government in Israel.” He referred to the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement as the “first mass non-violent movement to get Palestinian rights and defend Palestinian rights.”
Ali said the Holocaust “taught as a unique crime is not helpful” and minimizes other global atrocities. “If what is being done with Muslim communities today were being done to the Jews again, how many would tolerate it? Very few. And these are the double standards,” he said.
Also present at the panel was Weyman Bennett of Unite Against Fascism, Arthur Goodman of Jews for Justice for Palestinians, Lindsey German of Stop the War Coalition, and “As a Jew” activist Walter Wolfgang.
According to the report, Goodman said Jewish organizations should not be allowed to take part in defining antisemitism, due to a conflict of interest. He claimed Israel “ethnically cleansed” Palestinians in 1948, referring to it as the Nakba, Arabic for “catastrophe.” Echoing Goodman’s ideas on the Nakba, Wolfgang asserted that Palestinians were “driven out of their habitations” in 1948 and called for Israel to withdraw to pre-1967 borders, which the government of Israel has said repeatedly would make the country indefensible.
Bennett praised the Left for its fight against antisemitism, citing his organization’s protest against Hungarian party Jobbik leader Gábor Vona’s visit to the UK in January 2014. German called for open criticism of the political ideology of Zionism and argued that many Jews do not support the state of Israel.
Present in the audience of 300 attendees was Israel activist Jonathan Hoffman, the report noted, who handed out copies of the European Union Monitoring Centre on Racism and Xenophobia (EUMC) Working Definition of Antisemitism. During the question-and-answer session at the end of the panel, Hoffman attempted to “articulate Israel’s case under immense pressure.”
The University of London has been the site of high-profile anti-Israel activities. In January, police were called to the scene of an anti-Israel riot on campus, in which one Jewish student was physically assaulted. The riot broke out after a speech by former Shin Bet (Israel security agency) chief Ami Ayalon. In March, the ULSU passed a motion supporting the BDS movement.
University of London Panel Calls for Annihilation of Israel as Solution to Global Antisemitism
That should do it! The final, final solution. ultra sarc

Mossad is already in their midst. Israel takes existential threats seriously no matter who utters them.
Very logical. Kill the Jews, then the Arabs will love the remaining ones. Yah.
They will indeed. I DO think, however, there is a THIN line dividing dumb libs from evil libs. It's possible, that many of the evil libs, used to be dumb ones.
On the other hand, as evil as anti semitism is, we can expect it:
They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; That the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. (Ps 83:4)
Isn't it strange, that even during World War 2, I don't think there were a lot of people advocating the complete annihilation of Germany of Japan, but here we have evil slime bags, saying exactly that about Israel.
There truly is evil in the world.
It would seem a logical conclusion to draw.
Cockroaches, the lot of them.

Naturally! FINAL SOLUTION BUMP
As in Final Solution. Awesome.
“And you know some dumb libs (as opposed to evil libs) are going to buy into this vile suggestion!”
I know an otherwise highly intelligent lib who looks like he will have simultaneous mega strokes and anuerisms and immediately turns crinsom with spittle erupting between his teeth at the mere mention of the word Israel.
Rebuke him in the name of Christ.
Oh my God! Can we get rid of liberals to wipe out stupidity?
“And I will bless them that bless thee, and him that curseth thee will I curse; and in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed.”
G-d to Abraham, Genesis 12:3
Then by all means keep mentioning Israel, particularly in a positive light. One less Hildabeast voter, if we are lucky.
Hey, I object. Roaches just do what they’re programmed to do. They don’t choose to be evil, hateful, shitferbrains @sswipes.
Looks like they really have been overrun by the muzzies - can our wayward parent be saved?
