This is how malicious antisemitism when masquerading as anti-Zionism
The video shows the children singing a song which yearns for Israel. Had it existed their lives would surely have been saved when the world shut its doors...
But a Jewish person cannot even mention our murdered children without being lectured about justifying Israel government policy by someone like @flyinmybeer. That is racist.
As is comparing Israel to the Nazis, according to the IHRA definition of Antisemitism...
If your sentence says “the Nazis were an abomination but...” then you are probably an antisemite.
An ignorant caricature of the Israel-Palestine conflict is absolutely no excuse...
Antisemites are often guilty of what they accuse us of. Here @flyinmybeer tries to score political points...
But he can’t even get that right. Here’s a helpful hint to antisemitic trolls:
try not to get Israel/Palestine history so very wrong in your first tweet....
Remember we are talking about kids singing a song about yearning to go to Israel before being murdered precisely because there was no israel to go to
With this comment @flyinmybeer politicises their murder by Nazis, linking it to contemporary Israeli government policy...
When @flyinmybeer claimed my tweet about these children was justifying Israeli government policy I asked for evidence of his claim.
Instead he deleted his tweets. This thread is here because the internet should not forget...
The internet should not forget that even when a Jew talks about our murdered children, there’s always an ‘anti-zionist’ with zero knowledge on the subject to lecture us using anti-Jewish racism...
They are offended at the very concept of a safe haven for Jews in our historic homeland. Even kids murdered by Nazis don’t get a pass.
This, along with using racism to make their point, proves that anti-Zionism is sinister, and is indeed racism

Post enlightenment, intellectuals used to debate the status of Jews. This was known as ‘the Jewish question’. For Jews, despite all their efforts, enlightenment ended in the gas chambers…
The new ‘Jewish question’ to fill the minds of intellectuals is called antizionism. It is a rallying call, and one of the most dominant ‘isms’ of our time…
Antisemitism is a fantasy version of Jews by racists. Likewise antizionism is a fantasy version of Jewish life, politics and history, using the same stereotypes and accusations
THEEAD ABOUT 🍊 AND 🍋
You’ll never see this nursery rhyme the same again....
1/5 It’s about impoverished Jews collecting Oranges and Lemons shipped by Livorno Jews to St Clement’s (Eastcheap - by the Thames wharves)...
2/5 They were fronted the money near St Martins (Outwich) and if they couldn’t sell their produce (to pay back what they owed) they endedup in Newgate, where they would hear the chimes of St Sepulchre opposite the Old Bailey...
3/5 Jews lived in tenements in Shoreditch and Stepney - places like this were packed with thousands of Jewish immigrants , mainly Ashkenazi but also Sephardi...
