Media pushing fake news to pit Jew against Jew after Pittsburgh massacre


This story in Ha'aretz has been all over the news and social media. Coming from the anti-Zionist newspaper Ha'aretz I was naturally a little sceptical and asked FaceBook friends if they knew the exact words used by the Chief Rabbi in Israel. One replied as follows:
The article in Ha'aretz selectively quoted Rabbi Lau. This is my translation of what he said. A hostile journalist was obviously looking for a cheap headline. "What's the connection? There's nothing here to confuse the subject. We're talking here about Jews who were murdered because they were Jews. What kind of a question is this? I don't hear or understand what kind of discussion can be had on this question. It's important what type of synagogue or the liturgy they pray in?" I found no mention of this story on their Hebrew site. I suspect they are talking advantage of the fact that most of the English speaking readers will (a) be unsympathetic to orthodox Jews and (b) don't understand Hebrew. This really is a cynical way to sell papers.
If anybody is in any doubt about the Haaretz agenda have a look at the 'next up' link in the very same article:


Another piece of fake news now doing the rounds is this story:

In fact, contrary to what the JC writes here Katie Hopkins was NOT talking about Rabbi Mirvis the UK Chief Rabbi - so this is typical shoddy journalism by the JC. Her previous tweet (see below) makes clear she is referring to Pinchas Goldschmidt the President of the Conference of European Rabbis. Now while I think the tweet is still really dumb I think she has a point in that people like Pinchas Goldschmidt have been pushing the 'pro-Muslim immigration' agenda that is not only detrimental to the Jewish people, but is opposed by the vast majority of Jewish people he is supposed to represent.  It is also worth pointing out that Katie Hopkins is a genuine friend of the Jewish people - unlike a lot of the people that the JC promotes.


And of course also stirring things up is the loathsome Jeremy Freedland.

Jonathan Freedland is a loathsome jerk who brings shame to the British Jewish community.

Jonathan Freedland is one of the most prominent public Jewish figures in the UK. He was Editor of the Jewish Chronicle, and is currently a Guardian columnist (having previously been an executive editor and journalist there), a BBC presenter, and a regular contributor to the New York Review of Books. He still writes a monthly column for the Jewish Chronicle, as well as editorials for the Jewish News and he is a perennial guest of honour at Jewish community events. I have never understood why. His disdain for Israel and its democratically elected government has become increasingly obsessive over the years to the extent that he is perfectly happy chairing viciously anti-Israel events.

Although he calls himself a 'liberal Zionist', all of his writing about Israel/Judaism can be summarised as either

"as a Jew I wish to express my disgust with the Israeli government"

or

"as a Jew I wish to express my disgust with orthodox Jews".
 
His most recent obsession if with Donald Trump about whom all his writing can be summarised as

"as a Jew I wish to express my distrust with Donald Trump who is the greatest threat to the world ever"

Following yesterday's horrific synagogue massacre in Pittsburgh Freedland has been very active on social media and on the BBC. His total distortion of Trump's words in this tweet earlier today deserves as much condemnation as Baroness Tonge blaming Israel for the massacre:


He also appeared  on BBC News this evening blaming Trump


Jonathan Freedland is a loathsome jerk who brings shame to the British Jewish community.

The depravity of Arab terrorists - and their anti-Zionist friends

Jews brutally murdered - silence from the media ... and the Board of Deputies

It's official: "standing up against Islamic terror (and against antisemitism)" = "fascism"

In October 2017 I reported on the remarkable march of the Football Lads Alliance (FLA) in London. The FLA was founded just a few months earlier by a group of football fans to peacefully protest against terrorism following the various attacks in the UK that year. The primary reason for the movement was the lack of interest from the main stream media and political parties in recognising, let alone confronting, the Islamist threat in the UK.

As people like Tommy Robinson, Katie Hopkins and even Douglas Murray know too well, in the UK if you are prepared to speak out against Islamic terror and rape gangs you are classified by the main stream media and the entire political class as a fascist.  And that is exactly what the media did to the FLA and its offshoot the DFLA. The real fascists - Islamists and the left-wing thugs of 'Antifa' - are then hailed as 'anti-fascists' when, as on 13 October, they violently disrupt the DFLA's planned peaceful protest in London.  The main stream media reporting on what happened was universally biased and wrong. This video tells the true story (see also this report) of how the police supported Antifa and their Islamist allies in sabotaging the march. 

Now one brave left-wing voice - Brendan O'Neill of Spiked - has written an excellent article addressing the issue. He writes
Naturally, the FLA and DFLA have been branded… Islamophobic. As if to prove their belief that it is impossible to have a frank discussion about Islamist extremism, many commentators took one look at these white (shudder), working-class (eurgh) protesters and called them racist scum. Because if a portly bloke and his wife, both in West Ham tops, attend a protest, they must be fascist filth, right? That’s the view of the university-educated, woke new left, most of whom have never even met a football fan, far less seen 10,000 of the strange creatures take to the streets.
But things have now got even worse. It turns out that Mark Phillips, a coach at West Ham Utd, has been suspended simply for attending the DFLA march on 13 October.



On a related subject it is also worth noting that on 16 October a 70-year-old Jewish woman was kicked in the face by Corbyn supporters outside a Corbynist event that set out to deny there is an antisemitism problem in the Labour Party. As David Collier reports the Corbynistas reaction to this was to claim that the Jewish woman - and her female friend who was also attacked - were 'fascists' deserving of their fate.

Jews brutally murdered - silence from the media ... and the Board of Deputies


On 8 October 2018 an Arab terrorist brutally slaughtered two young Jews in the Barkan industrial area that encourages coexistence between Israelis and Palestinians. The terrorist was able to carry out the planned attack as he worked there as an electrician. As usual there was silence from the main stream media because dead Israeli Jews do not matter. The Board of Deputies of British Jews is clearly happy to keep the silence (as it was on the murder of Ari Fuld).


(Nothing on the regularly updated BoD twitter feed either).

The terrorist - Ashraf Walid Suleiman Na’alwa -  is currently on the run.  Bibi Netanyahu says 'we will bring him to justice'.  What Bibi means is: the terrorist will spend a few years in a comfortable prison with good meals, entertainment, and education all paid for by Israeli taxpayers, and a salary of $3,800 per month for life paid by the PA (with western taxpayers money - that continues because the Israeli leftist judges will not allow terrorist accounts to be closed). In at most 10 years he will be released along with a 1000 other terrorists for the mutilated bodies of a couple of murdered Israelis and he will live the rest of his life in luxury as a hero in the Arab world....

Sky News pathetic response to their lies about Tommy Robinson in interview




A friend who is a Sky News UK subscriber sent the following self-explanatory complaint about the appalling mess they made of their 'interview' with Tommy Robinson on 27 September:
I have been a Sky TV subscriber for many years. I was, therefore, appalled to discover the extent to which Sky News misrepresented the interview with Tommy Robinson both in the TV slot and online.
I have watched the full unedited interview and it is clear that Sky News have used malicious and deliberate intent to libel Robinson in the edited version (see, e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byMHT72YAcg) . You only need to compare the two versions to see the extent to which Sky News have attempted to deceive their viewers.
If Sky is unable to provide an adequate response and public apology I
will be closing down my account. 


Note that their pathetic response below fails to deal with any of the specific points raised in the video linked to. Also note the irony of their ludicrous implication that Tommy is hiding from the media (it says he "chooses to deliver his message unchallenged on his own social media channels).
Thank you for your email and also your patience whilst we reviewed the footage.

Sky News interviewed Mr Robinson because we believe our audience should hear and experience a range of viewpoints.

Mr Robinson has tens of thousands of supporters across the UK, but mostly chooses to deliver his message unchallenged on his own social media channels. Jason Farrell’s interview was an opportunity to scrutinise and challenge his arguments in detail.

The interview broadcast on Sky News is a fair representation of the interview recorded with Tommy Robinson.

We interview many people with differing views and all are handled in the same way. We believe in presenting our audience with the facts so that they can think critically for themselves. Jason himself has written about the interview and you can read his article here: https://news.sky.com/story/sky-views-why-take-the-tape-off-tommy-robinsons-mouth-11514027

Kind Regards
