The Board of Deputies of British Jews told Jews to Stay Indoors when Sir Oswald Moseley’s Fascists Marched – but it demonstrates in support of the Mass Killing of Palestinians

| The Board of Deputies Attitude to Settler and Zionist Attacks on Palestinians |
In Palestine, after a wave of settler
attacks on Palestinians from settlers
and the army, and the violent invasion of the Al Aqsa mosque by settlers and
soldiers, Palestinians have fought back with stones and knives.

The burning to death of 3 out of 4 members
of the Dawabshe family in August, when settlers threw molotov cocktails inside
the building and at all exits, to prevent any escape, triggered off what is now
the largest uprising for years.

In Gaza Israeli troops opened fire on
Palestinians on the other side of the security fence killing 6
Palestinians. The truth is that
Palestinian lives are cheap to the Zionist warmongers.

The Board of Deputies of British Jews has
decided to hold a demonstration next Tuesday 13th October at 5 Galena Road, W6 0LT London, United Kingdom. . They are asking British people to believe
that Jews in Britain support the far-Right genocidal Israeli government of Benjamin Netanyahu. If
this were true then Jews in Britain would indeed be legitimate targets for
attack because they would be culpable and responsible for what is happening in
Palestine. Of course they are not
responsible nor is there anything approaching unanimity in the Jewish community
regarding Israeli violence against the Palestinians.

| When the fascists marched in the Jewish East End the Board of Deputies told them to say at home |
What the Board of Deputies are really doing
is to invite anti-Semitic attacks on Jews which they can then blame on the
Palestinians. If there are such attacks
then the primary responsibility is that of the Board of Deputies.

A number of Jewish groups will therefore be
holding a counter-demonstration at the Palestinian mission in London and it may
well be that other people may wish to
attend.

The Board is posting an events page at and it would be good if those with the rellevant technical abilities were to
bombard the site with a denial of
service attack.

The Board of Deputies eagerness to support
Israel’s genocidal attacks on Palestinians contrasts with its historic attitude
to the British Union of Fascists when they told Jews, at the Battle of Cable
Street in October 1936 to stay home and keep their heads down. [see Bericht über die Schlachtin der Cable Street] It is to be hoped that they will again be ignored.

I posted my own contribution to the Board’s
Face Book page. Suffice to say it was
taken down, presumably there are some Jews that the Board don’t represent. I kept a copy again and it’s now back up
again – for the moment anyway!
