All the President’s Nazis (Real and Imagined): An Open Letter to Bush
This is such an excellent article that I thought I’d repost it. It refers to George Bush’s speech to the Israeli Knesset where he compared those who would advocate talking to Hamas (clearly a reference to Barak Obama) to appeasers of Hitler. Dear Mr. Bush, Your speech on the Knesset floor today was not only…
Read MoreGilad Atzmon Joins with Anthony Julius to Attack Jewish Anti-Zionists
There are a few people who have illusions that the anti-Semitic jazz player and ex-Israeli, Gilad Atzmon is an anti-Zionist. This confusion is, of course, understandable, because Atzmon purports to support the Palestinians. But supporting the Palestinians in the abstract doesn’t make one an anti-Zionist. It is quite possible to hold contradictory ideas in one’s…
Read MoreZionists Resort to Anti-Semitism to Attack Signatories to Guardian Letter of 30 April 08
As has often been remarked, anti-Semitism and Zionism are twins of a kind. Both agree that Jews do not belong in the countries of their birth and where they live. As Herzl remarked in his Diaries (a goldmine as he didn’t expect them to be published): ‘I took a look at the Paris Jews and…
Read MoreWe’re not celebrating Israel’s anniversary – The Guardian, Wednesday April 30 2008
The Guardian newspaper today printed a letter from over 100 British Jews, including yours truly, making it clear that in the midst of the ruling class’s celebrations of the establishment of their regional rottweiler, Israel, they would not be welcoming the 60th anniversary of the Nakba – the expulsion of the Palestinians from their homes…

Below is an open letter from Dr. Haidar Eid to Nadine Gordimer, a well known novellist and someone who was active in the anti-Apartheid struggle in South Africa. Gordimer was also the daughter of a refugee from the pogroms of Czarist Russia. She, of all people, should understand why it is wrong to ‘celebrate’ the…
Read MoreThe Death of Mary Rizzo’s ‘PeacePalestine’ Sewer
It is gratifying to announce that the anti-Semitic sewer, going by the name of ‘PeacePalestine’ has now died a death. After I had it taken down for a day or so, because of its libellous comment, Google decided in any case it was a ‘spam’ blog. Who are we to disagree?!!! Naturally the last article…
Read MoreA Zionist Conspiracy to Wreck Wikipedia
We all know about the conspiracy merchants who believe that Israel masterminded 9/11 whilst ensuring that its own citizens were not in the building at the time. In Britain we have had a not dissimilar version in the death of Princess Diana. Conspiracy theorists tend to be on the Right, and the far-Right, because it…
Read MoreHamas Leader Praises & Identifies with the Fighters of the Warsaw Ghetto
If you were to listen to the Zionist propagandists, then Hamas is the incarnation of evil, a movement dedicated to the extermination of Jewish people no less. Of course the reality is somewhat different. Despite their Islamist politics, which includes putting praise for the Protocols of the Elders of Zion in their Covenant, their politics…

Read MoreThe BNP – the most Zionist of the Political Parties
On Thursday April 10th the Guardian carried a news story which, for some of us at least, was no revelation. ‘BNP seeks to bury antisemitism and gain Jewish votes in Islamophobic campaign’.· We were told by one Ruth Smeed of the Board of Deputies of British Jews that ‘The BNP website is now one of…
