As a huge wave of the darkest antisemitic hatred crashes across the land, including calls for the mass murder of Jews, what is the "anti-racist" group "Hope not Hate" really worked up about?

Matthew Parris. 1/6
"Friends of Al Aqsa" is at the heart of the ugly agitation we are seeing, just as it has long been.

It is dedicated to fanatical hatred of Israel and promoting antisemites. Its founder and leader, Ismail Patel, is a fan of Hamas. Up the "anti-racist" street, right?

Oh. 2/6
Indeed, Hamas has built up an extensive UK support network since the 1990s. Journalists have covered it and counter-extremism activists have challenged it for years. It is one of the roots of Labour's ruin.

Going by their website, "Hope not Hate" hasn't even mentioned it. 3/6
The "Palestinian Forum in Britain" is another player behind today's ugly scenes. Israel=Nazis.

It used to bring some of the Middle East's very worst hate preachers to Britain before the Government banned them, with encouragement from activists, including Muslims.

Ah, I see. 4/6
Well, this is an outfit that was "delighted" to appoint Kevin Courtney of the NEU as a patron to its "HOPE Education Fund". One couldn't ask for a better friend for Islamists. He's with them all the way, even in defiance of Birmingham's Labour council. 5/6
If you are seriously concerned about racism in the UK, including antisemitism, know your true allies and your fair weather friends. 6/6

Last weekend, "Light Upon Light" conferences were held in London and Birmingham. "Blight Upon Blight" would be better. Both lengthy events focused almost exclusively on Israel.

Calls for peace? No. Prayers for a "Palestinian victory". Here's Yaha Raaby. With Hamas on its... 1/8
...knees and Gaza in misery as the terrorists take to torturing and murdering their own people.

The delusion is remarkable and disturbing.

Here's another plea, this time from Ali Hammuda. 2/8
Hammuda is a fever dreamer. He really does believe that ultimate victory is assured and that "the Zionist superstructure is collapsing". Prepare for a “post-Zionism era”.

And reject modernity! 3/8

"We stand together now - against hate"

Do we? May I suggest the Prime Minister take a look at his own constituency last Saturday?

The triangle gesture means "I back Hamas". Yes, abductions, rape, torture, and mass murder of Jews. Just for being Jews. That's what they like. 1/6 Image

There is a problem with crime, by the way. That is Eran Cohen of the CWU trade union, the day *after* the racist vandal group "Palestine Action" was proscribed. 2/6 Image
Gross conspiracy theories once the preserve of the racist far right are popular among "progressives" these days.

And yes, you are a target. 3/6 Image

Camden Council insists the borough is “no place for hate”.

Judge for yourself. See the frantic “Palestine Solidarity Campaign” hate parade yesterday.

"We free our land! We kick the Zios out, out, out!"

"Zio" is a derogatory term popularised by the American far right. 1/8
Death chants are the new must at London hatred rallies.

"Death, death, to the IDF!"

Remember, this is Camden. Not Tehran. 2/8
Ethnic cleansing cries are a trusty old standby.

"From the river to the sea, Palestine is Arab, Israel is a thief, Zionists, out, out! " 3/8

London is a "bastion against hate", London's mayor says.

Let's see what's up today at the Royal Courts of Justice. Oh. "Zionists not welcome in the UK! Out, out!" "Zionist scum off our streets!"

"Have you been shooting babies in Gaza!"

Ah, a normal day in the capital.
The obligatory frenzied shouting for the ethnic cleansing of Israeli Jews.

"Palestine is Arab, Israel is a thief, Zionists, out, out!"

As desperate Gazans chant "Hamas, out, out!"

London is a bastion OF hate.
Nageena Naz is a Leeds "Palestine Solidarity Campaign" hate marcher. She was arrested at their protest last Saturday. She likes abusing Jews in the street. She also faces charges for allegedly joining a "Palestine Action" attack on Barclays.

Today, she promised more attacks.

Voices for vandals!

Who would back creeps who attack the RAF? Meet protesters in London yesterday. Let’s start with Ayoub Khan MP.

Just throw any old words out there. It's a "disgrace!". Nothing less than a "shame on British democracy!".

He goes on to sound like a... 1/9
...distinctly unimpressive SOAS student. Israel's fight with Iran? A devious “smokescreen”.

It's just so silly. No, if you want a civil nuclear programme, as energy-rich Iran claims it does, you do not need a hall of centrifuges hidden deep inside a mountain. For starters. 2/9
In a grotesque move, Saeed Taji Farouky of Palestine Action invoked Cable Street.

Only to reveal just why it is grotesque himself. The white racist far right in America popularised the "we are occupied too" line. "Zionist are in control", you see. He offered an Arabic echo. 3/9

Is it OK for a mosque that is a registered charity to host a terrorist support group? And help them raise funds?

Of course it is! This is the UK. Extremists can do whatever they please.

So, this mosque, it couldn't be connected to terrorism itself, could it? 1/5 Image
Oh. I see. Oh my. 2/5
itv.com/news/2018-09-2…
Ah. No. The charity was obviously aligned with jihadis at the time. This was not hard to figure out. And the times were very fraught indeed, as British jihadists flocked to Syria to join its most extreme terrorist groups.

Well, this is a mosque that...3/5 Image
