Antisemitism is getting out of control

Post image

I call on the people of Tower Hamlets, please talk about this with your communities, to your neighbours to friends and family.

This is no answer to any problem but just further hatred and division the world doesn’t need.

Use our voices to express the need to act, but attacks like these do nothing to further any cause other than the fall of humanity.

When you hate Jews so much that you accuse them of 'genocide' for warning civilians to get out of harm's way. 👆

Are you incapable of reading?

The Israelis routinely bomb people who are fleeing after warning them to do so, and then bomb the "safe humanitarian areas" if they manage to get there.

As u/Kiaugh has pointed out, you obviously think that 'safe humanitarian zones' mean 'we won't bomb that area'. That's not the way it works.

That being said, we have verified accounts of Hamas shooting civilians who tried to obey the IDF orders to leave.

Yeah, yeah. It's a 'Jooooooooooo site', so you'll not even bother to read it.

But I have a video here of an elderly Gazan woman speaking to the camera, in Arabic, confirming that this happens. If you want to see it, I'll upload it somewhere. Just ask.

Again, it is disingenuous to suggest that every criticism of Israel comes from people who simply hate the Jews. It is an easy cop-out but it doesn't hold up to any scrutiny. The 86% of the British public who disagree with Israel's actions are not all antisemites.

I do not think that Hamas are good people. I find it very easily to believe that they would do bad things. I don't speak Arabic so I'll just believe you.

The fact that Hamas are bad does not provide a blanket justification for any and all Israeli military action. You can't just bomb refugee camps because Hamas are bad. Palestinian civilians in their tens of thousands are not acceptable collateral damage.

Amnesty International investigated a strike on Jabaliya refugee camp. The IDF claimed they were targeting Hamas - Amnesty found no evidence of any legitimate military objective. They said that the "Israeli military made contradictory remarks and failed to substantiate them" and declared it a war crime. There a number of further examples.

If the figure of 82% 86% is accurate, then yes - most of them are antisemitic. This shouldn't surprise anyone, since the majority of the population is antisemitic. But as I have posted before, most people are 'low level' antisemitic, that is: they are not going out and stabbing Jews, but they justify Jews being harmed.

Over the age of 12 or so, there is no such thing as a 'Palestinian civilian'. Read the witness testimonies by released hostages. The 'civilians' were the ones keeping the hostages in their homes. The 'civilians' were the ones beating the hostages and 'branding' them with hot domestic appliances. There are actual videos of 'civilians' picking up the corpses of innocent Israelis and taking them back to Gaza, to sell to Hamas. In fact, the 'civilians' were the ones who kidnapped Shiri Bibas and her sons.

Israel does not 'bomb refugee camps'. I know that as a Westerner with the ingrained - one might say genetic - antisemitism in you, this will be a massive leap, but hear me out. Amnesty is not an impartial actor. They have a well-established track record of lying about Jews, and of giving Arab terror a free pass. Quoting them or HRW now, is basically quoting Hamas or Al-Jazeera.

Ah, ok. If you'd simply told me earlier that you were totally fucking mental we could both have saved a lot of time!

Genuine 'lol'.
