"The stigmatisation and scapegoating of women wearing a headscarf is not new in France but well-spread for decades now," said Leonard Faytre who recently contributed to the European Islamophobia Report which monitors rising anti-Muslim intolerance in Europe.
“Previous attacks [on Muslims] by Emmanual Macron, his minister of interior/ his minister of education targeting specifically the Muslim minority in France, has normalised far-right ideas,” said Louati

“Emmanual Macron is no different from le Pen or any other racist politician

Here is a story about antisemitism on the British left.

Last May, Israel fought a brief war in the Gaza strip: over ten days they destroyed forty schools, four hospitals, and nearly a thousand buildings; they also snuffed out around 250 human lives.

In my home province of Alberta several forms of this teaching flourished. Image

“This is the background..
You couldn’t have created that Jewish exclusive state without oppressing or expelling the local population
It’s the longest ethnic cleansing operation in the 20th & 21st Century & it’s still ongoing “
#Nakba

From An Infant Survivor of the #Holocaust
He compares the situation in Israel to his experience with the Holocaust. Maté writes, that “as a Jewish youngster growing up in Budapest, an infant survivor of the Nazi genocide, I was for years haunted by a question resounding in my brain with such force that sometimes my head
I was for years haunted by a question resounding in my brain with such force that sometimes my head would spin: ‘How was it possible?
How could the world have let such horrors happen?’
It was a naïve question, that of a child. I know better now: such is reality.”
