*Thread* Jeremy Corbyn would like you to think that he finds Israelis-are-Nazis abuse unacceptable.
Here he is in 2018, for example, ever so sorry about his platform sharing in this context, don't you know. 1/4
What about the Islamist agitator Salma Yaqoob, then? Here she is calling Gaza a "concentration camp" at one of the countless Israel hatred demonstrations she has attended. 2/4
Ah, that will be, er, different, I suppose. Corbyn is due to share a platform with Yaqoob this Saturday, alongside ever faithful Diane Abbott and Claudia Webbe. 3/4
Indeed, Yaqoob is a "fantastic activist". A "hero", even.
The man doesn't even know what shame is. 4/4

On 8 October, all of us could see the hideous crimes of Hamas.
In Birmingham, some reacted to the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust with joy, expressed at a protest *against* Israel before it had even counted its dead.
“I am very happy, I am very happy!” 1/6
This man spoke for the Muslim Association of Britain, a nasty Islamist outfit that organises the hate marches.
He got an early start.
“We are gathered today in solidarity with the right to resist." "We are supporting any human being trying to resist.” 2/6
“Thanks be to God! It’s victory! We should be celebrating!”
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".
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
