    "An anti-Semite used to be called a person who dislikes Jews. Now it is a person who Jews dislike" - Dr. Hajo Meyer, Holocaust survivor, 1924-2014.

    As a Jew, originally from North London, I'm getting mightily sick of these confused North Londoners from my former community phoning in to whine about 'antisemitism' when their interpretation of that term is essentially defined as anything said that doesn't praise Jews or Israel. As others have pointed out below, 'From the River to the Sea' or more exactly, 'From the Sea to the River' has been a term incorporated in Likud's charter for decades. Netanyahu has not been using it as a recent reposte to the so-called antisemitic slogan projected onto the Houses of Parliament and chanted by all of us who attend the pro-Palestine marches. He has been using it as a slogan for many many years to remind Palestinians that they will never have a homeland under his watch. To define it as an antisemitic slogan is truly risible.

      Exactly 👍🏼 in actual fact most of the Israeli population are of European Jewish descent so aren’t actually semites or very few are which is the reason why it is illegal in Israel for DNA testing to be done (you can research this) as they would find that 80% of the actual population of Palestine historically are the real original semite Hebrew inhabitants which then became Christian or Muslim over time as before British Colonists went over in 1918 with the Balfour Declaration which the Zionists supported to go and take over the land in that region to build a Jewish state that didn’t exist before because there was always an indigenous people before, just like how there was in the USA, Australia and other countries that the British Empire conquered. Israel is nothing but a colonialism project in the Middle East.

    Why is no-one addressing 'the elephant in the room'? The term 'ant-Semitism' has evolved to include any criticism - in any way - of the state of Israel. This definition - which is also the official definition recognised by the UK Government by the way - is extremely dangerous. Such a definition of anti-Semitism ultimately acts as a smokescreen for the nation state of Israel to potentially commit war crimes and illegal acts which cannot be challenged lest the person raising concerns will be wrongly accused of 'hate speech' towards 'all Jews'. This is very worrying.

      It found Cllr Rosehill delivered leaflets that Labour say implied Cllr Ozarow supported terrorist organisations.
      A billboard owned by Cllr Morris at Elstree & Borehamwood station featured a mocked up headline in a fictitious newspaper called Hertsmere Times that insinuated Cllr Ozarow supported Hezbollah.

    "90% of Jews" - where does Brett get this seemingly wildly inflated percentage from? I am sure the thousands of brave and principled Jews who voiced their opposition to the ongoing genocidal massacre in Gaza would probably disagree.
    Brett is legitimately entitled to worry about antisemitism but he comes across as though he is lamenting the fact his victimhood is allowed to be overshadowed by another one! Goodness me!

      ​@@benking4222Absolutely wrong, just like Brett. From Full Fact - a survey in 2015 found 90% of British people support Israel's right to exist as a nation, not that, as Brett claims, "90% of Jews believe the chant is antisemitic". Stop misleading people.

      @@TBakerXD I suppose in his mind it means the same thing if you squint real hard since “FTRTTS = destroy Israel”. Tho again as James pointed out he doesn’t make the same connection when Israel uses the quote in reference to Palestinians because consistency is a big ask I guess
