Labour and antisemitism: you couldn't make this up

About that 'award' given to the Jewish Labour Movement .....

The Jewish Chronicle reports on this. What the JC don't tell you much about of course is who Del Singh really was. I blogged about Del Singh when he was killed in 2014. The Jewish Labour Movement must have known about him. So why did they accept the award in his name in the first place?

Del Singh: friend of Islamic terrorists in Gaza - killed by Islamic terrorists in Kabul

It is also important to note that the Palestine Solidarity Campaign - of which Singh was a prominent member - is not just an anti-Israel organisation but also a blatantly antisemitic one as proved by David Collier

Understanding the Labour Party on antisemitism (part 2)

Following my earlier post, this summarises what the key Labour party members are now saying:

Another terrorist attack - another example of Palestinian privilege

A Palestinian terrorist murdered three Israelis today. Despite the fact that one of those murdered was an Arab-Israeli security guard, this sparked the usual celebrations throughout the Palestinian territories - celebrations which constitute yet another rule of Palestinian privilege:

Happy Palestinians hand out candy to celebrate murder of Israelis today

Fatah, PA praise terrorist in poster today

These are the victims whose murder is being celebrated:

and, to dispel the myth about 'poverty' driving terrorism here (apparently) is the house of the terrorist (several times the size of an average Israeli family apartment) :

 And here are some of the other relevant rules relating to today's attack:

Understanding the Labour Party policy on antisemitism

Following the first day of today's Labour Party conference their policy on antisemitism can easily be summarised:

Today's events included:

• calls to expel the 'Jewish Labour Movement' from the party (for refusing to accept that Israel was 'like the Nazis') 
• Jewish writer David Collier banned from attending a meeting of the new Jewish labour group JVL (a group that seeks the destruction of Israel) for being too Jewish for them
• multiple instances of antisemitism dressed up as 'anti-Zionism', with the worst proponents stating there was no such thing as antisemitism in the party

On Battle of Britain Day: if German blitz on London were reported like Islamic terror attacks

Today is Battle of Britain day. With another terrorist attack in London today and the standard mainstream media and political response it is worth considering this ......

11 September 2001

Arabs massacred by Americans in day of tit-for-tat violence

The cycle of violence in America spiralled out of control today when a series of violent incidents left thousands dead, including many Arab and Muslim civilians. UN sources and Al Jazeera have confirmed that many of the Arabs killed were refugee children who had fled from oppression. American claims that they too suffered “many civilian deaths” have been strongly denied by the UN-affiliated relief workers in the Al Qaeda organisation who maintain that the only Americans killed were military personnel and illegal settlers.

The violence started when one of five unarmed Arab civilians, who boarded a 767 aircraft in Boston, was refused permission to fly the plane, despite having a valid flying licence. The American authorities have been imposing increasingly tight restrictions on the freedom of movement of Arab civilians within the US. This humiliation to their dignity has created, not unsurprisingly, deep anger and resentment among Muslims in the US. When the fully qualified pilot was denied the opportunity to work in his chosen profession, he became understandably angry. The outnumbered Arab men were then attacked by members of the crew, but what really happened next may never be known. What is certain is that all of the five Arab civilians were killed, along with the plane’s other occupants (primarily military and intelligence personnel along with some illegal American settlers) when the plane crashed into the North tower of the World Trade Center. Al Jaziera and the UN confirmed that the building (which housed a mosque) contained many Arab refugee children, who were all killed in the attack along with a number of Muslim workers. Some illegal American settlers dressed as businessmen may also have perished.

As news of the Muslim civilian deaths became known, it is believed that Arabs on another aircraft reacted with understandable passion, battling with military and security personnel. This plane soon crashed into the south tower of the Word Trade Center. After this second crash the US military ordered an unprecedented grounding of all civilian flights over US airspace, thus denying all Muslims living in the US the right to travel. On hearing news of this racist attack on their human rights and livelihood, a group of Arab militants on another airplane mounted a daring tit-for-tat strike. With nothing else to lose, and in sheer desperation, the militants crashed the plane they were travelling in into the very heart of the brutal US military machine – the Pentagon – killing scores of soldiers.

In an escalation of the violence - and without any United Nations mandate  - the US military responded by threatening to shoot down any airplane still flying that was piloted by Arab Muslims. This brutal, illegal and racist measure led to the final, and most outrageous act of violence of the day, committed by a group of self-styled American settler vigilantes aboard flight 93 to San Francisco. On learning that their airplane was being flown by an Arab pilot, the American settlers took it upon themselves to massacre all the Muslim Arabs on board. In the ensuing struggle the Arab pilot was savagely killed and the plane crashed into a field, killing all the occupants, many of whom were Muslim refugee children. The US military is likely to have to accept full responsibility for the final massacre, since they had given messages to the settler passengers on board flight 93 that the Arab pilots were planning to crash the plane into the White House, even though no proof of such a wild conspiracy had been presented to the United Nations. The French and German leaders have already demanded a UN enquiry into the massacre of Arab civilians.

It is expected that any UN enquiry will also determine the cause of the complete collapse of both of the twin towers. Early evidence provided by reliable sources from the Palestinian Authority, The Syrian Government, the New York Times and Liberal Arts Professor Ward Churchill suggests that this must have been a joint operation between the CIA and the Israeli Mossad.

Jewish charity Norwood and its tie-up with Islamic Relief

UPDATED 2 Set 2017: See the graphic below of the actual shop at Selfridges

So, following on from CST's endorsement of a video promoting the "Free Gaza" (i.e. death to Israel) symbolism (see also image below) -  all in the name of 'community cohesion' and 'combating Islamophobia'  -  we now have another Jewish charity - the excellent Norwood -  teaming up 'in solidarity with' Islamic Relief at Selfridges presumably with the same naive intent (hat tip to Ambrosine Yolande Shitrit for both of these stories). I am sure there are many suitable Muslim charities that Norwood could have teamed up with. Unfortunately, Islamic Relief is not one of them.

Islamic Relief is a British-based 'charity' that has long been accused of involvement in terrorism as reported here. In 2006 the Israeli Government outlawed Islamic Relief Worldwide (IRW) from its work in Judea and Samaria,  declaring that it was "designed to further Hamas's ideology among the Palestinian population" and in 2014 claimed that the 'charity' was involved in sending cash to Hamas.
In 2014 HSBC cut its ties with IRW due to concerns over its terrorist links.  Even the United Arab Emirates banned IRW because of its terrorist links.

While IRW has denied the links with Hamas, what is certain is that the 'charity' has a disproportionate obsession with 'Palestine'. Two of its 'current' appeals are devoted to 'Palestine' and 'Gaza'. While IRW is banned from operating in the West Bank it still operates extensively in Gaza where Hamas controls all money that comes in.  The IRW web pages also push the standard exaggerations and blood libels against Israel such as:

The most recent conflict in Gaza saw thousands of innocent civilians lose their lives – including six-year-old Ismail Bakir, who was hit by a rocket and instantly killed when he was playing on the beach, not far from home where his mother was.

(The claim of  "thousands of innocent civilians" is a proven lie as is the implied claim that an Israeli rocket killed a child on the beach).

I was trying to find out what proportion of IRW's funding ends up in Gaza (i.e. under Hamas control). What is very interesting is that their audited annual reports - on this web page

 http://www.islamic-relief.org.uk/about-us/annual-reports/

are not available. If you click on any of the links (to the pdf reports) you get this:

Given that Norwood made the decision to team up with Islamic Relief I would have expected the minimum due diligence would have involved a) checking the charity was not implicated in terrorism; and b) checking the charity's annual reports. Clearly neither of these happened. So who is responsible for this fiasco which brings more shame to the so-called 'Jewish leadership' in Britain?

2 Sept Update: Here is the actual shop at Selfridges. It is pretty clear which 'charity' is driving this event - but why are the other charities 'in solidarity with' Islamic Relief? And it gets worse. If you go the the Artangel & Miranda website for the event, scroll down and click on "Distributing the Proceeds Read More" you literally draw a blank.....

And here is the Credits Page on the ArtAngel website: Nice to know that UK taxpayers (via the Arts Council and Lottery) are also funding this.

The CST madness:

The following text from Douglas Murray's excellent book "The Strange Death of Europe" (in which he is talking about a novel by Michel Houellebecq) perfectly sums up the 'Jewish leadership' and political elite response to the Islamist threat:
