So let’s see. The British union of journalists is boycotting Israel. And yet, they are not boycotting the Palestinians, who do this to their own journalists:
A prominent Palestinian journalist from the Gaza Strip has sought political asylum in Norway, Palestinian journalists said Saturday.
Seif al-Din Shahin, the correspondent for the Saudi-owned Al-Arabiya news channel network, left the Gaza Strip together with his family, they said, noting that he had received many death threats over the past few months.
Shahin’s request has yet to be approved by the Norwegian government. Several other Palestinian journalists are also reported to have fled the Gaza Strip out of fear for their lives.
Earlier this year, masked gunmen set fire to the offices of Al-Arabiya in Gaza City, causing heavy damage to furniture and equipment. Although no group claimed responsibility, Palestinian journalists blamed members of Fatah’s armed wing, the Aksa Martyrs Brigades.
The group was also responsible for beating Shahin in two separate incidents in 2001 and 2004. The second assault followed Shahin’s live broadcast of a rally held on Fatah’s anniversary. The report angered Fatah leaders who had instructed Shahin and other journalists to report that tens of thousands had participated.
So yes, absolutely, boycott the Israelis. Because it’s not like there’s freedom of the press in Israel or anything like that.
Oh, wait. Yes there is.
What we’re seeing is a culture committing suicide by punishing those who are least likely to harm them while rewarding- or at least not punishing- those who wish them ill.
You nailed it, until Jews in the UK and around the world stand up with a unified voice this will continue to grow. There needs to be some consequences for the rag sheet writers. Israel should ban them from entering into the country instead of always trying to placate them.
If you rely on the rest of the world to protect you because you are weak and need assistance, it is already too late.
The Jews should have learned their lesson in the forties, ‘never again’ means NEVER AGAIN.
