The Metropolitan Police has asked the public to help identify pro-Palestine protesters with anti-Semitic placards on Saturday.
A man wearing a keffiyeh scarf was pictured holding aloft a sign that showed the Israel flag with the words “the final solution”, which was the title of the Nazi plan for Jewish genocide during the Second World War.
The placard also depicted two people trying to topple the Star of David with a US flag emblazoned on it.
Two girls aged 13 and 14 have been arrested after a Jewish woman was violently robbed in north London in what police are saying is a possible hate crime.
A 20-year-old orthodox Jewish woman was filmed being hit, wrestled to the ground and kicked by two girls who appeared to be wearing their school uniform on Rostrevor Avenue in Haringey on Thursday.
The neighbourhood group Shomrim, which released CCTV footage of the attack at around 4.30pm on Sunday, said the victim was “beaten unconscious” and that attackers “stood over” her “joking about her being dead”
Two black teenage girls beat a Jewish woman unconscious and the legacy media won’t cover it because it doesn’t fit their narrative.
Imagine if this was two white teenagers attacking a black woman completely unprovoked. It would be headline news for days.pic.twitter.com/7S4uowTVRZ

An Alberta woman whose son was killed while fighting with Islamic extremists in Syria is worried anger over the conflict between Israel and Hamas could lead to an increase in radicalization.
Chris Boudreau says she expects extremist groups are going to seize on the conflict.
“That’s what they use to engage — the anger, that burning desire on the inside,” she said in a recent interview with The Canadian Press.
“Helplessness is a powerful thing. Fear is a powerful thing. And unfortunately, as human beings, emotions tend to prevail over logic.”
I feel sorry for this mother’s loss however she needs to understand that Islam is not considered “radical” by it’s adherents.
The hate on our streets is a satanic calling straight from the hell of Islam’s heart.
In the 60s, in America, three young men were active on behalf of civil rights for African Americans.
James Chaney, Andrew Goodman, and Michael Schwerner, spent the summer of 1964 registering African Americans to vote in Mississippi where they were brutally lynched by the KKK, their bodies tossed in a shallow grave.
Chaney was African American. Both Goodman and Schwerner were Jewish.
The sacrifice of these 3 men gave rise to the Civil Rights Acts of the same year.
Celebrations will be kept to a minimum in the birthplace of Jesus as Palestinian Christians recognise the suffering of their ‘brothers and sisters’ in Gaza
In Bethlehem, the West Bank town where Jesus was born, the carol singing has been cancelled, the fairy lights dimmed and the tree never put up.
Christmas will be less festive this year after the churches of the Holy Land demanded a more solemn period of reflection in recognition of the suffering felt by the people of Gaza. Israeli attacks have killed more than 17,000 people there since the Hamas attacks that killed 1,400 Israelis on October 7. In the town’s Lutheran church, the Nativity scene depicts a child buried in rubble.
Over the past month and a half, Jews around the world have acquired incredible clarity on antisemitism.
The view in Canada is chilling — massive pro-Palestinian and even pro-Hamas protests featuring thousands of furious people calling unequivocally for the genocide and extermination of Israel “from the river to the sea.”
Sorry to break it to you Jenny but Canada has been Mass Immigrated & Multicultured into a sick society. There is no going back.
And FYI all the demos are “Pro-Hamas.”
A pro-Palestinian rally turned violent Sunday afternoon as police clashed with protesters outside the U.S. Consulate in Toronto, leading to at least one arrest.
The Star observed a police officer on foot ram his bicycle into the bicycle of a woman standing in front of him. The woman, who was holding her bicycle, fell over as the bike toppled. A man ran up after and shoved an officer to the ground in retaliation. Police then tackled, beat and arrested him.

For an entity that has tried to delegitimize Israel, it has done a better job of delegitimizing itself
There’s an old joke about the United Nations having a soccer team. “But who would they play?” it goes. “Why, Israel of course.”
There may not be much humor in it, but there’s plenty of truth. Despite Israel being set up by UN vote, it has been the world’s premier forum for Israel-bashing, particularly since the country won wars of self-defense in 1967 and 1973.
In 1144, the murder of a tanner’s apprentice in Norwich was blamed on French-speaking Jews, birthing a shameful tradition of blood libel that ascribed to Jews a penchant for murdering children.
As the unknown person who recently scrawled graffiti outside my house put it: “think Gaza”. Are the Israelis trying to kill infants? Of course not. They understand that every death is a victory for Hamas in the international arena.
The ease with which so many reach for Jewish malevolence to explain the Palestinian tragedy has roots reaching back to East Anglia. But no longer do the good people of Norwich throw Jews down wells. Rather, the local council equivocated this week about the public Chanukah lighting.
These anti-Israel protesters are obsessed with the Holocaust.
Shameful behavior in London today.

The history of terrorism in pursuit of political aims is as long as history itself.
However, the past two decades have witnessed important, and needless to say worrying, developments in what could be seen as a zoological version of political activism.
The old versions saw disgruntled individuals assassinating powerful enemies. Julius Caesar was stabbed to death by 53 Senators led by his closest friends, Marcus Junius Brutus and Gaius Cassius Longinus. Nizam al-Mulk, he powerful Grand Vizir of Seljuks in Iran, suffered the same fate at the hands of 18 Nizari hashasheen (assassins) including a Russian slave. The Qajar Nasseredin Shah was dispatched with a single bullet while mumbling “Son of a Donkey!”
Radical pro-Palestinian demonstrations appear to have developed a new tactic: they are targeting Christmas tree lightings across the country, and other Christian symbols, in addition to symbols of Israel and Jewish institutions.

At 6.30am on October 7, Yussef Alziadna’s ringtone woke him with a start. Having ferried revellers to the Nova music festival until 1am, the Palestinian taxi driver had been expecting a lie-in.
Instead Amit Hadar, an Israeli whom he had dropped off with his friends hours earlier, was calling, begging for help. Hamas had attacked the festival. Could Alziadna bring his 14-seater van to rescue them?
Alziadna, 53, understood the risks. “I told myself, it doesn’t matter if I am going to die, I have to save as many lives as possible,” he said. “I’m an Israeli, they are Israelis.”
Friday’s YouGov survey shatters the caricature of Holocaust deniers as old, white, right-wingers in rural America. The poll exposes the left as home to those who refuse to believe the fate of 6 million Jews and illuminates Democratic reluctance to expose the antisemitism festering in their midst.
YouGov asked 1,500 adult Americans if they “agree or disagree” that “the Holocaust is a Myth.” Ten percent of Democrats agreed, double the number of Republicans. Seven percent of liberals and 6 percent of conservatives said the same.
The former home secretary shares her concerns about radicalisation in our schools and the normalisation of anti-Semitism
An end to round-the-clock telephone calls requesting approval for intelligence-service operations might seem a happy by-product of being suddenly ousted as home secretary. But, says Suella Braverman, as a parent of a two-year-old, that has not necessarily meant more sleep. “My daughter still wakes up at 3am,” she sighs. “But, yes, I don’t need to worry about the national-security issues.”
Braverman, 43, describes the responsibilities of home secretary – which include signing off on MI5 surveillance warrants – as a “heavy burden”. “[Officials] do call at any time and you’ve got to be able to respond immediately,” she says. However, it isn’t just the national-security element of the role that the former attorney general has found to weigh heavily.
Canada’s media would never do this story with one reason being that no politician other than Bernier would dare broach the topic.
Yet Canada’s experience with wreckless mass immigration from incompatible cultures and the burgeoning anti-semitism on display in our streets is largely identical to Great Britain’s.
So where will you find such discussions in Canada? Small little blogs like this one. That’s pathetic.
