Abolish Israel, support the Jews

Daniel | 15.01.2009 21:00 | Analysis | Palestine

This isn't a comment on Indymedia administration except as an illustration of the way the ongoing Israeli massacres have ripped us all apart. I have never seen a promoted article being hidden before, and so although I'm not an IMCista I assume there are battles raging off the screen. 'Smashing the war machine - Tescos in Whitechapel attacked' is the article -  http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2009/01/418654.html?c=all

I have been called anti-semitic here before and I haven't reacted since the shoe doesn't fit me, but today I have come to the conclusion that Israel has to be done away with, no longer can there be a two state solution on the path to a no-state solution. I am not religious but I whole heartedly support 'Neturei Karta - Orthodox Jews United Against Zionism'. I would like if my final comment on the hidden thread remained visible, if not there then here-


I am currently wearing a home-made Leonard Cohen Tshirt. My favourite comdedian is currently Sarah Silverman, although I still like Woody Allens work. I have read the Jewish scriptures and considered going to an Israel Kibbutz when my friends went as teenagers. The first good sex I had was with a Jewish socialist, daughter of a mafia accountant. Unlike most people posting here, I have lost a friend to a Palestinian suicide bomber.

Yet now I oppose the state of Israel and call for it to be abolished because I've been paying attention to events there. Israel has become a Nazi state as surely as Hitlers state was. Same tactics, same lies. The term anti-semitic referring to Jews only is a Nazi term so you call me that if you want, you use any Nazi terminology you want to describe me. If someone starts trying to 'kill all Jews' it'll be folk like me stopping them, but destroying the businesses which support this slaughter, that is a good and just act.

Don´t be fooled by pro-Israel trolls posting here ...and by me

15.01.2009 21:34

Just google "Prof. Siletzky" ("Heil Hamlet")

Oviously, some trolls are trying to put pressure on indymedia.uk for not dancing to the tune of Pro-Israeli spin doctors creeping up inside the left.

Why should smashing in capitalist premisses in Greece be ok only because they are owned by gentiles? ...

U only could argue that using violence gives the movement a bad name, one should not argue it´s wrong because the owner support Israel and that would be antisemitic.

It´s been a neocon tactic for some years to portray anticapitalist protests in Europe as antisemitic, And they succeeded in weakening anticapitalism in Germany.

They now try to attach the label "antisemitic" to the new protest movement in Britain. ...it ends up discouring people to take part in protests at all.

What else should we expect from them?

Better watch this:  http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7828577.stm

not just hidden, but gone, why?

Not surprising as you called for physical attacks,


My comments were not even hidden, just deleted, not what Indymedia was about when people like me got involved many many years ago,

So, i will post it all again, and again, if need be: there have been an number of anti-semitic attacks in east london, a synagogue has been firebombed and gangs of youth have been intimidating jewish schools children outside the gates of their school , racial abuse is now quite prevalent and people are living in fear. On the demo, last week, a guy dressed as a jewish characture(sic) like figure, complete with hook nose and fangs eating babies was walking around, why was he not confronted and stopped?

If this was the BNP carrying out this, there would be uproar, a number of Muslims worthies including Imams have condemned all this, recognising where it all may lead and the backash it may engender, never mind the moral repugnance of it. These incidents are in the old stomping grounds of Moseley and his blackshirts, I wonder what the old anti-fascists of Cable St, etc would make of it all?.

Outside of the left and indymedia world, many people are shocked by what they see and read and are making judgements unfavourable to the left and indeed to Muslims.

It si entirely possible to abhor what is happening in palestine, to take peaceful action and not endorse Hamas or wish away these events above.

history tells us things....
