Children are easy targets for bullies. I'm not surprised.
I’ve seen a lot of abhorrent things on this app, but the immediate dismissal and ridicule by the British Left of a forthcoming government report on antisemitism towards Jewish children is just appalling. I naïvely thought that, when it came to children specifically, the usual suspects would be more empathetic (or at least more cautious), but alas. The abject cruelty is profoundly disturbing. Ironically, of course, they make the case for Zionism better than any Zionist ever could. Herzl is vindicated time and time and time again.

There's far more support for Sally Rooney, who wants to fund a proscribed terrorist group, than for John Banville, who pulled out of a Spanish literary festival due to their discriminatory policies against "Zionists." And that tells you all you need to know irishtimes.com/culture/books…

Really don’t like the trend I’m seeing with some long time Democrat friends right now. Like you know people do notice the stuff you post about Jews and Israel, right? You’re not tweeting in a vacuum.

I think everyone saw today that there are a lot of British and Irish leftists who feel that abusing, bullying, and violently assaulting Jewish school children is not only justified, but laudable. These are the same people who call everyone else "Nazis." Sick.

Because it is. Antisemitism isn’t just disliking Jews, it’s an all-encompassing conspiracy theory that posits the collective Jew as the source of all earthly evil, which must thus be destroyed. Not that Jews are evil, but that evil *itself* is Jewish. It’s uniquely exterminationist, and is the reason why the 20th century saw the destruction or displacement of almost every Jewish community in Europe, West Asia, and North Africa. You’re not going to find anyone else on earth subjected to this level of obsessive, unhinged hatred. It is a unique form of hatred and should be treated- and retaliated against- as such.
Why on earth does antisemitism need to be recognised as a distinct form of hatred????

A most concerning development, one in direct contrast to Albania's proud history of sheltering Jews during WW2 I believe that the Albanian people en masse will reject any fringe elements who seek to use the protests as an excuse to target the Jewish community

No political "thinker" has influenced today's far left quite like former KKK leader David Duke From his support of the Assad regime and Russian ultra-nationalists to his use of the slur "z*o" and the phrase "Jewish supremacism," along with his fawning attitude toward the Islamic Republic of Iran, Duke is the intellectual godfather of today's global far left: pro-Assad, pro-Tehran, antisemitic, and anti-Ukrainian
