The veteran Hamasnik Anas Altikriti speaks up for his heroes at the 22 May Israel hatred demonstration in London. He is "jubilant" and "uplifted".

"We saw who stood up to the brutality and crimes of the Israelis. It is churlish and immature of the... 1/6
..British government to disengage and not talk to the real people on the ground who are leading the Palestinian people. Every single Palestinian faction, including the resistance, represents Palestine and the Palestinian struggle."

He would say this, wouldn't he. Say Qassam! 2/6
Think Altikriti only has it in for Israel? Think again. When our troops were on active duty in Iraq, he backed the jihadis who were out to murder them. 3/6

He has been at this for so long now. Here he is in 2007, lamenting the Muslim Council of Britain's decision to end its boycott of Holocaust Memorial Day, which he called a "principled stand" as Israel committed "similar crimes". 4/6

In the clip above, Altikriti shares the stage with Chris Nineham. Even by demanding stopper standards, he is an exceptionally nasty piece of work. He too supported the jihadi maniacs out to murder our troops. Perfect for this demonstration. 5/6

Labour MPs also spoke at this demonstration, as they have at other racist rallies in recent weeks.

This is not about peace. It is about building support for Hamas.

Keir Starmer has nothing to say about all this, it seems. If you back Labour, please have a think about that. 6/6

This might as well be the face of Labour in 2021. The party let Louise Regan back in last month after suspending her in 2020.

And the face of the NEU too, where the fanatical Israel hater is "National Officer, Membership and Equality". 1/8 Image
She's in with Unite as well, of course. The Labour antisemitism crisis deniers and trusty bankrollers of far-left nutters who want to fight the party.

And the self-styled Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC), a leading organiser of the racist rallies of recent weeks. 2/8 Image
Antisemitism in education? Let it rip!

This vile PSC statement actually rejects Gavin Williamson's rightful and urgent concerns about antisemitism in schools.

Lower one can't go. 3/8 Image

The Al-Hikam Institute of Bradford was a player in the car convoy that brought vicious antisemites to London earlier this month.

It is bad all round. A woeful, miserable, and alarming tale of our times.

Start with the Batley teacher and the Al-Hikam imam Adil Shahzad. 1/20
His role has been covered, including hurling the vile "coconut" slur at British Muslim MPs.

Two weeks on, he *still* has two posts up on Facebook which name the teacher. This is outrageous - the poor man may well be facing the life of Salman Rushdie. 2/20
dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9…
This alone should prompt Charity Commission action. Al-Hikam is a registered charity and Shahzad is one of its trustees. When another local charity named the teacher, there was a response. Let's see another one. 3/20

Speaking on an Islamic TV channel this month, the Labour front bench MP Sam Tarry offers a masterclass in grubby communal politics in pursuit of his interests.

Faith first. What is happening in Israel is simply "disgraceful" in Ramadan, he declares. 1/10
facebook.com/SamTarryForIlf…
He finds it "one of the most unjust conflicts in the entire planet".

In the dark world of Syria, Yemen, Xinjiang, Taliban advances, Russian depredations from Ukraine to our shores, Iran's malicious ventures abroad, Myanmar, no, it's Israel.

Of course it is. To the streets! 2/10 Image
He bangs on about al-Aqsa as if the violence came out of the blue, with no cause. Stone throwers don't merit a mention. Leave the poor dears out of this.

You really don't have to be a fan of Israeli policing to wonder here. 3/10 ImageImage

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

Labour must not let Howard Beckett back into the party.

His record on antisemitism is appalling. Here are some of the episodes.

When the party suspended Naomi Wimborne-Idrissi of "Jewish Voice for Labour" (JVL) and Louise Regan last year, Beckett was furious. 1/13
He offered "solidarity" to the "outstanding comrades".

“The membership will not stand by idly and put up with it.”

"We will stand up to this leadership on behalf of all members of the Labour party”.

Both women were speakers at the same meeting. 2/13
David Hirsh on JVL: it "serves to kosherize Jeremy Corbyn’s antisemitic politics and to smear anyone who says they have experienced antisemitism in the Party".

As for Regan, her Corbynista antics were too much even for Labour left MP Nadia Whittome. 3/13

Some Islamist and far-left activists would have you believe that Keir Starmer pulled out of a "Ramadan Tent" event merely because the group's founder and CEO Omar Salha calls for a boycott of Israeli dates. There's much more to it than that. But even the dates story is nasty. 1/8
A month ago, Salha promoted a boycott call by "Friends of Al Aqsa", a fanatical Israel hatred outfit headed up by Ismail Patel. It is no stranger to controversy, to say the least.

In 2017, Sajid Javid, then Communities Secretary, called it on its record. 2/8
Writing to Ismail Patel, he noted "concerns that your organisation and those connected with it have expressed public support for a proscribed organisation, namely Hamas, and that you have supported events at which Hamas and Hizballah – also proscribed – have been praised”. 3/8
