Channel 4 'News' is merely propaganda. My 7-year old suffered explicitly antisemitic abuse from a classmate this past Gaza conflict. But I guess the need for kids to break school rules & shriek abuse at Jewish classmates & teachers is far more of a priority for @fatimamanji
The report has Rob Faure Walker as an authority who's on record supporting Prof. David Miller who accused British Jewish students of being Israeli agents because they objected to him teaching antisemitic conspiracy theories. Perfect to comment! labourfreespeech.org.uk/support-david-…

The report also features comment from MEND. Yes, the same MEND whose CEO likes to talk about the "300-year old Israel lobby".
There couldn't possibly be a single hint of antisemitism present with any of this Palestine 'protest' issue, could there? I'm sure @fatimamanji would have highlighted it if there were...
The British Jewish charity featured in this 'impartial' 'news' report was, in fact, misleadingly misquoted and the organisation is putting in a complaint. Funny how @fatimamanji uncritically took all of the *problematic* people at face value however...
But given reporter Fatima thinks Corbyn supporting *explicitly genocidally religiously antisemitic* Hamas & Hezbollah is no biggie, she's clearly the best person to investigate if pro-Palestine school protests are antisemitic or not 🙄
H/T @nicolelampert
I'm genuinely shocked at this piece of propaganda. I thought I'd run out of genuinely shocked after the Corbyn years but the chatterati Left never fails to find new depths to plumb.
Are all Palestine protests rowdy & antisemitic? No. Are some? Yes. Shame on Manji for ignoring it.

Let me tell you an illustrative story of just how very much #JewsDontCount as ably explained @Baddiel. On 10th June while violent antisemitic attacks were at their peak a kid's book writers' society @scbwi posted a really moving post against antisemitism. facebook.com/SCBWI/photos/a…
The non-political post came from SCBWI's Equity & Inclusion Officer April Powers, a Black Jewish woman. Unfortunately for some, merely *referencing* antisemitism is an affront. Enter Razan. Razan *really* doesn't like people talking about antisemitism as her tweets to SCBWI show.
As Razan explains, the fact that SCBWI had the temerity to mention antisemitic violence across the globe without mentioning Muslims/Palestine was anathema to her. Apparently #AllLivesMatter after all! (note her equating US Jews with white supremacists)
