When the anti racists become racist themselves

January 18, 2012 20:21

If you were born in France you are French, if you were born in England you are English, if you were born in Germany you are German, if you're born in Israel you are..?

According to some, if you're born in Israel you're not worthy of being Israeli say the anti-racist organisations.

There is not one other country in the world, apart from Israel, where the so-called anti-Nazi or anti-racist organisations believe, that Israelis have a right, a human right, to exist in safety.

The truth is, the UAF (United against fascism) organisation, march alongside anti-Israeli supporters numerous times.
Whilst wearing their keffiyehs,and loudly supporting political far left groups that support Hamas & Hezbollah. They are vocal that Hamas and co , have a right to self-determination, which is top of their list, but not Israelis right to self-determination.

Organisations such as Hope not hate are never seen alongside pro Israel organisations. A good example of this is on social media networks such as twitter. They are readily posting tweets and prominent alongside pro-Palestinian,anti-Israeli organisations. Any day of the week. look at the #edl hash tag, and you will find Hope not hate and United against fascism organisations readily supporting those people who attack Israel's existence.

So obviously Israelis do not have support from anti-racist or anti-Nazi Organisations. In fact all these organisations openly support and side with the Palestinians, but not Israelis.

It seems to me that these organisations believe that Israelis are not entitled to human rights. They are not entitled to live in safety and they believe Israel is the only country in the world not entitled even to exist.

Take a quick look at the #Israel twitter hash tag,and not one of those anti-racist groups side or support Israel.

They're all to quick denouncing far right groups as racist, but not so quick in denouncing terror organisations such as Hamas.

So when did the anti-Nazi organisations and the anti-racist organisations become racist themselves?

Only when it is against Israeli citizens.
