*Thread* If you are a true Israel hater, you will look on the distressing events in America and your thoughts will turn to, um, Israel. The most tangential and circumstantial of connections will do.

Step forward Newport Labour councillor Miqdad al-Nuaimi. 1/8 Image
Rebecca Long-Bailey spread this poison too. There was a party price to pay, as there should be.

This is no one-off. Al-Nuaimi rails against Israel in tweet after tweet after tweet. Newport, by contrast, gets relatively little attention. Bins? Parks? Roads? Nah. Israel!! 2/8
Did you know, for example, that Israel is committing "genocide"? This is one for the far fringe, as ridiculous as it is offensive. Yet al-Nuami is fond of it. Very fond. He even resorts to "Final Solution" abuse. 3/8 ImageImageImageImage
Al-Nuaimi also routinely promotes some of the worst voices out there. Kerry-Anne Mendoza of The Canary, a notorious hate site. Electronic Intifada, home to Asa Winstanley, who quit Labour before he was pushed. Jewish Voice for Labour, the champion of the party's antisemites. 4/8
And the Holocaust denier Sarah Wilkinson, heaping high praise on the putrid antisemite Roger Waters. 5/8 Image
There’s more. Al-Nuaimi was suspended from Labour in 2016 for comparing the Israeli government to the Nazis and writing "ISIS leader Al-Baghdadi dies in Israeli hospital…If confirmed, the #Israeli connection is very interesting." 6/8

Incredibly, Labour let him off. Since then he has fantasised about the Prime Minster’s head on a plate, pushed a lie that Mossad did Corbyn in, scorned a “witch hunt” and “smears” as Labour antisemites were brought to book, and attacked anti-racists. 7/8
Surely Newport – and Labour - deserve better than this. Keir? 8/8 Image

Meet the “Palestine Solidarity Campaign” in Leeds.

Yesterday, this thug dressed up like an Islamic State executioner hurled abuse at a lone pro-Israel protester.

"Terrorist supporter!" "You've got no say!" "You are a Zionist dog!"

And he’s just getting warmed up here. 1/4
A few minutes later:

"You will have an end also!"

"You are the devil!"

"You are evil!" 2/4
Later, they set off on the customary hate march through Leeds.

Abusing Starbucks is a key ritual. They do it every weekend. 3/4

What does a hate march look like?

Scenes from Saturday's "Palestine Solidarity Campaign" (PSC) protest in London will show you.

First up, Nazi slurs. It's the most abysmal abuse. So it's a perennial favourite. 1/9

And I do mean a favourite. Yet more slurs.

One of them managed to get a demon swipe in too. More on that later.

The PSC says it opposes Nazi slurs at its marches. It lies. 2/9

Supporting terrorists is very important.

"Victory to the resistance!"

"Yay, a PFLP hijacker, love her!" 3/9

First the hate speech, then the ludicrous denials.

The Mahmud Sabir - Al Furqan mosque in Birmingham, a registered charity, told The Telegraph a few days back that it "refutes any claim of promoting hateful messages".

Oh really? See for yourself. 1/9
telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/12/1…
The article covered a talk at the mosque by Abdullah Saif, Midlands and Wales manager for the Islamist pressure group MEND.

Is Gaza a “concentration camp”? No. It was. But now it is an “extermination camp”.

And this in a talk on the best “language” for the war. Yes, really. 2/9
Saif stands by those foul words.

Amusingly, the Mend tirade against The Telegraph calls the nutty friend of terrorists Norman Finklestein "an acknowledged world authority on Palestine".

While the ultra racist Chris Williamson is merely an "advocate of Palestinian rights". 3/9

If you prefer your Israel hatred raw and crude, try Glasgow.

Last Saturday, Yvonne Ridley told a hatred rally “the Israeli lobby owns the US presidents”.

Our Prime Minister and Keir “Scum” Starmer have also been “bought and paid for”.

Hamas is “part of the solution!”. 1/6
Mick Napier of the “Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign” is perhaps Scotland’s most repugnant antisemite.

Yet even he seems a bit put off by the hideous Hamas atrocities. Bouncing back, he rants about Israeli “lies”.

Israelis raped? Nah. He "stands for the truth". 2/6
It can’t be a proper Israel hatred rally without Nazi slurs.

Here you go. “Palestine is now a concentration camp. There is no other way to define what has happened.” 3/6

“We have worked extremely hard to bring people together”

There’s much to say about Leicester, but let’s focus on one simple point. Some in the city work “extremely hard” to drive people apart.

One of them is Muhammad Sindhi, an imam at the Umar mosque.

See how he does it. 1/9
In a sermon last month, he scolded Muslims who "love" politicians when "Allah is saying they don’t love you at all".

Even if they agree with you, don’t buy it. When you're out of the room, “they start biting their fingers with rage. This is what they do behind your backs.” 2/9 Image
“Rishi Sunak, Keir Starmer, do you think they care for the Muslim community? They don’t love you. They’ve got nothing to do with you.”

So this is what Muslims should say to politicians of any mainstream party, including Labour: “die in your rage”.

And they try so hard! 3/9 Image

Pity the fundamentalists of the Darussalam mosque in Southall.

Muslims want to protest. But there's ”free mixing with women”!

You may even end up next to “a guy who takes it in the backside at night”.

Oh no! Allah will see and deny victory to the Muslims.

Life is tough. 1/5
This is serious!

"Allah brings down governments when men and women start free mixing. Allah destroys the government. Allah destroys the country. Allah destroys the people. ... They collapse."

"You can see why the West is going in a direction that is quite interesting.” 2/5
Yet these are also good times.

Many Muslims are seeing that the "kuffar" - a disparaging term for disbelievers - are no friends. As Allah says.

"The hatred is apparent on their tongues. What they hide in their hearts is even worse.”

He adds a death cult flourish for Gaza. 3/5
