"One of the most irritatingly insidious forms of antisemitism is throwing up their origins at Jews"
And one of the most despicable defences of atrocities carried out by regimes claiming to act on behalf of the Jewish people is to point to the death toll of the Holocaust and say "If you critisise them you are an Antisemite".
Israel is now a persecutor of the Muslim people, stealing their land, slaughtering, starving, ghettoising and humiliating their people.
You have paid lip-service to being opposed to this while at the same time you have stayed silent on a massive massacre of refugees, you have ignored the chemical warfare, the Berlin-like wall, the attempts to starve an entire, largely impoverished people into submission, the attempted ethnic cleansing of a nomadic people, the Warsaw Ghetto like checkpoints, the destruction of homes, the bombing of hospitals and schools, children being used as human shields..... you have refused to even acknowledge statements by Israeli soldiers and security service officers.
Your 'opposition' to Israeli expansionist terrorism appears to amount to the cutting down of a few olive trees and six broken cameras - no more than mealy-mouthed lip - service.
When my mother-in-law-to-be (didn't happen) showed me her tattoo all those years ago and told me, "Never again - not to anybody" she left me with something that stuck with me for the rest of my life.
I first met her and her daughter through their activities in the South African Anti-Apartheid Movement protests... I have no doubt where they would be today in connection with Israeli Anti-Apartheid protests. Certainly on the opposite side of Israel's Berlin Wall, to you, BooBoo, Keith the Moron - and all the other 'principled and honest human beings' now defending Israel's right to act exactly like the former persecutors of the Jewish people.
Don't you dare call me an Antisemite, you appalling cowardly, hypocrite.
