It's astonishing how easy it is for people who regard themselves as progressive to talk about Jewish experience in ways in which - were it applied to any other minority - they would condemn as appalling racism.
It illustrates how prejudice & hatred operate to obscure judgement.

I've chewed on it. It tastes unpleasant and full of bile. I am sure it absolutely reflects the person who vomited it up.

When your argument ends up with you saying 'forced displacement is wrong, unless it happens to Jews', it's a pretty good sign that you're not terribly bright.

Lowkey has just outed himself as someone who thinks a Jewish charity helping people with learning disabilities is fair game

The letter lawyers in their darkest moments think of writing to their clients, and never do, because, well, you just don't

This is splendidly splenetic. However, it raises the question of why Ms Braverman did not resign.
How many broken promises and breaches of confidence would it have taken before she did so? Because it is clear that her limit had not been reached when she was dismissed.

A cracking maiden speech delivered with gentility and good humour. After years of division and toxicity this is the political spirit so many people want right now. I hope for a long and bright future in Parliament for Alistair Strathern

And if you look at this bloke’s TL you’ll see exactly what he’s done to urge Hamas to agree the ceasefire he says he wants…
If you find anything let me know.

I’m sure he’s kind to animals.
It’s just that he’s unkind to Jews who dare assert the right to self-determination that he himself enjoys. To the extent of declaring their murderers his friends.
So what does “some decent values” even mean?

Alison Moyet has had to delete her Twitter account because of all the abuse she received for standing up for her Jewish friends. Now I understand why the few that do want to show support stay silent.

I am extremely proud that this man hates the organisation I work for.

It clearly massively frustrates him that so many British Jews understand exactly who he is & refuse to be used as his pawns.

British Jews show strength & courage every single day. Him & his ilk can jog on.

This kind of denialism - passing up Syrian atrocity images as Gaza by those who deny Syrian atrocities -is so common that it can't be accidental. It's not like there is any shortage of real images of Gaza. Rarely has the cynical violence of denialism been more visible.

According to the Times of Israel, Netanyahu’s unwillingness to commit to the return of the PA to Gaza is undermining global support for the continuation of the IDF operation. The problem is especially acute among friendly Gulf states like the UAE and Saudi Arabia.
