So there is an article in the Guardian by Ed Pilkington @edpilkington.
First of all, look at this lovely picture that they have chosen for the article. So who exactly is banning criticism of Israel? In their opinion: Ku Klux Klan. 1/
Secondly, notice how article smears Jews as “rightwing push”. Also, demonizing Israel and creating distorted image of the reality falls directly under IHRA definition of antisemitism.
Look. This is what Ed Pilkington considers a “criticism of Israel”. Here are IHRA examples. 2/
This is my favorite part of the article. Present you without a comment. 3/
Right, she was scared of harassment in Berkeley? Someone who supports BDS? In Berkeley, in California? Ben Shapiro had to have guards and Berkeley spent 600k USD to protect him from BDS loving crowd around that time. What is she taking about exactly? 4/
And last one. Of course any article on that right now cannot go without adding infamous Ken Stern from Bard Center. Well, at least the Guardian has dropped “IHRA definition author” lie that others were spreading, but changed it into “lead drafter of the EUMC text”. Oh well. 5/5
And Mehdi Hasan retweeted it. No joke. He did. With this image. I have a proof:
