Lord Phillips: Jews On Suicide Path

By Jonathan Hoffman, December 15, 2012

"Jihad" Jenny Tonge has at last been expelled from the LibDems but Andrew Phillips has lost no time in replacing her as the nastiest LibDem in the House of Lords.

This is the very same ignoble Lord who has opined that "America is in the grip of the well-organised Jewish Lobby" and that "non-Jewish critics of Israel are silent for fear of being labelled ‘antisemitic’".

William Hague - You Cannot Be Serious!!

By Jonathan Hoffman, December 4, 2012

Yesterday the UK Foreign Office called in the Israeli Ambassador for a dressing-down after Foreign Secretary Hague condemned the Israeli announcement of plans for 3,000 more homes in the Disputed Territories and the intention to approve planning and zoning for the area of E1 (an area between Jerusalem and Ma'ale Adumim).

Veolia and Batsheva

By Jonathan Hoffman, November 22, 2012

Last night I first went to Hackney Town Hall. The Council was due to consider a request from a Labour Member to invite in a Deputation to speak against Veolia, in order to lobby the Council and two of its members on the North London Waste Authority, with regards to the contracts they are considering.

Vile Israel Question on BBC "Any Questions"

By Jonathan Hoffman, November 21, 2012

Last Friday’s “Any Questions” on BBC Radio 4 had a vile question on Israel from “Steve Bedford”:

Despite all the foreign aid and support, Israel has spectacularly failed to get on with its neighbours. Does Israel deserve a future?

Unbelievably some (no doubt Guardian-reading) BBC Researcher on the programme thought this a suitable question to pick.

Deprogramming students from the Palestine Solidarity Cult

By Jonathan Hoffman, November 13, 2012

A new term and thousands of brand new students to brainwash so it was down to the University of London Students’ Union last night where the Palestine Solidarity Cult held a meeting to discuss boycotting of Israeli culture and academia. Predictably the ingénues were subjected to a farrago of lies.

By Jonathan Hoffman, November 10, 2012

There's been a serious escalation of hostility on the Gaza border tonight - 4 Israeli soldiers have been injured - 2 seriously when terrorists in Gaza fired an anti-tank missile on an IDF patrol.

#BDS Fail in Brighton

By Jonathan Hoffman, November 10, 2012

There were only 4 interruptions of Batsheva's brilliant performance last night and all the cultural hooligans were loudly booed and yanked out onto the street commendably quickly by the security staff. I can't wait to see Batsheva in London. The reviews have been great so please buy your tickets if you have not already done so -- cultural hooligans excepted of course.

Child Abuse Palestinian Style

By Jonathan Hoffman, November 6, 2012

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=oWlxLq-2RQA

The Palestinians select and dress their children to look like regular blond European and American girls. They then have them taunt IDF soldiers, aiming to provoke a reaction which will then be filmed and broadcast across the globe - with Ha'aretz and The Guardian in the lead of course.

By David Landau

Every time Anat Hoffman performs her stunts at the Western Wall, well-meaning liberals like Bradley Burston fall for it.
