We have right to be angry. Three points that need to be made about the dangerous media misreporting on the Islamist marches taking place in our cities

Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
1. All four of our main news outlets @BBCNews @SkyNews @Channel4News @itvnews - all reported that this was a march about a ceasefire.

They are lying. As always 'free Palestine' and 'from the river to the sea' were the most heard chants. Neither are about ceasefires. Image
If the people are calling for the destruction of Israel - why is our media calling it peaceful? Or pretending they only want a ceasefire? Why is everyone running scared of upsetting Islamist groups - even to the point of hiding their extremism?
2. And we have right to be angry. This is Ismail Patel - leader of Friends of Al Aqsa who organised and spoke at the demo (left). He has a history of pro-Hamas commentary - and on the right is an image of him with the Hamas leadership. Image
He is not alone. Leaders from the two other Islamist groups that organised the demo have been to Gaza and met with the Hamas leadership. Both the MAB and PFB have long been associated with Hamas and /or the Muslim Brotherhood. Image
Why are Sky, the BBC, ITV and Channel 4 *ALL* ignoring this vitally important fact. Can you imagine - for a second - them describing a march organised by far-right groups as 'peaceful' without referencing the political extremism of the organisers? It would never happen.
3. So we have a march organised by Islamist groups who have had clear ties to Hamas - they put 100,000 on the street - everyone is singing about the destruction of Israel - and the BBC etc want to lie to us and tell us it is peaceful...
Well this guy has been there every week. Leading chants from inside the march - he even led a chant of 'from the river to the sea'.
Why not ask him? His name is Mohammed Qasim. On the 7th October he was happily posting pro-terrorist messages - with joyful comments about 'the end of Israel'. He even sent Hamas words of encouragement - at the time they were slaughtering innocent Israelis. Image
Now look at the responses that his pro-Hamas post received. 32 responses - all 'likes' or 'love'. There was no dissent at all. Although our media won't ever tell you this - the pro-terrorist support is not an outlier - it is mainstream in these circles. Image
Finally. He sang 'from the river to the sea' at the demo. Our media say it is peaceful.

But he is telling us here exactly what he means. Posted 7 Oct. We see clearly what the phrase means. It means genocide. The sea is there, and the Jews are being forced into it. @metpoliceuk Image
This is scary - and not just for the Jews. Where is our Media? Where are our police? Where is the CPS?

Why are those institutions meant to protect us running scared of upsetting Islamist extremist groups?

Their lies protect Hamas supporters.

Why won't they do their jobs!

A big lie we are being sold is to suggest the anti-Israel demonstrations on our streets are all about human rights concerns. They say that any support for violence is just an outlier. In reality the opposite is true.

Just look - thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
Let's start with Scotland. Mick Napier is the head of the Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign. He posted this video on 7 October. He says the news is 'absolutely amazing'. He talks abut 'resistance fighters of paragliders'. He calls it 'astonishing'and 'inspiring'.
Another large Palestine group in the UK - is the Manchester PSC. This was posted by them on 7 October. It says Manchester PSC support the resistance. They called the terror attack a 'heroic move' carried out by 'brave fighters'. Image

Hey @SkyNews

I am an investigative journalist - who has done a bit of investigating - and I have a couple of questions for you about your reporting on the Islamist / Jihadist demonstration that took place in London on Saturday.

Thread
⬇️⬇️⬇️
You sent a journo to the demo - where she interviewed people.

Your journo spoke to demonstrators and asks explicitly about the genocidal chant "from the river to the sea" - which is then promoted by you to your viewers as a peaceful chant (which it certainly isn't).
Your journo then says this

"the crux - from the people we have been speaking to is peace in the Middle East - that is the recurrent call we are hearing - strong emotions - but peace is the sentiment here'... Your journo is pushing a false message. But it gets worse...

Accounts on social media sites such as Twitter portray a wonderful history of a state called 'Palestine' -

So let us look a little deeper -
thread
⬇️⬇️⬇️
First the historical facts.

For the 19th century Islamic world, the area was a sparsely populated forgotten backwater with rival clans and nomadic tribes presenting a hazardous obstacle for every trip. 2/17
‘Palestine’ was never anything but a name of European imperial / colonial conquest (Greek, Roman, Crusader and then British). It had been left to rot by an Islamic empire that did not care. Even Al Aqsa - (deliberately built on top of a holy Jewish site) was left to decay. 3/17

A thread on the lies about Israel being a 'racist' or 'Apartheid' state

⬇️⬇️

I live in Israel for 19 years, and lost a good friend during the 2nd Intifada when a terrorist turned a pub on the beachfront into a scene from a disaster movie 1/12
I also tutored the son of a friend - and helped him through his exams - only to see him murdered by Hamas.

Israel tried to make peace with the Palestinians over and over again and the result was always the same – exploding buses, cafes and malls. 2/12
Which is why it is so offensive to see people who hate the Jewish state turn Israel’s need to defend its citizens – into something nasty.

This week we saw these lies from progressive US politicians such as @IlhanMN @RashidaTlaib and @AOC 3/12 Image

The @spectator just gave a platform to an antisemitic conspiracy theory...

Thread 1/14
⬇️⬇️⬇️
They just reviewed a book by the anti-Zionist Avi Shlaim that claims 'Zionists' were behind the exodus of Jews from Iraq in the early 1950s.

Written by @justinmarozzi the review is gushing in admiration for the book.

Except the whole thing is an antisemitic rabbit hole. 2/14
The conspiracy has been around a long time and Avi Shlaim (who likes BDS and thought Labour's antisemitism crisis was a sham) has an enormous chip on his shoulder.

It suggests that explosions in 1950/1 (they say were set by zionists) caused the happy Iraqi Jews to leave. 3/14

We all know that the Guardian hates Israel and has an obsession with demonising the Jewish state.

A few days ago @guardian published yet another rancid article.

What I found was sickening - even by the Guardian's toxic standards:

Thread 1/13
⬇️⬇️⬇️
The article was about the upcoming 'Boycott Divestment and Sanctions Bill'.

A bill that seeks to stop obsessive activists abusing local public bodies (and tax payer money) to disrupt community cohesion and drive their own foreign policy. 2/13
Most of the time these activists are antisemites who obsess over Israel and want to boycott it (the BDS movement).

BDS seeks to wipe Israel off the map.

Of course the Guardian never mention this in the article - because they want readers to oppose the bill. 3/13
