This is a thread taking an in-depth dive into Palestine Action (PA), its actors and its motives. Let me start by Introducing you to James Fergie Chambers. James is the incredibly wealthy son of the American Cox family. Who now resides in Ireland. He is a fundamental and key player in the Palestine Action collective. A self declared revolutionary communist, Maoist and Leninist, who directly supports Hamas, and has an incredibly fond love of Russia and a deep seated hatred of all things western.

I am a British Jew I condemn all attacks on British Jews I also condemn @chiefrabbi who does not speak for me or MANY British Jews in his constant, uncritical support for Israel which is committing apartheid, illegal occupations, torture, war crimes, crimes against humanity & GENOCIDE
Sajid Javid@sajidjavid

On @BBCr4Today, the Chief Rabbi made a direct appeal to the country. "The silent majority of the UK is with us," he said. "They're with the Jewish community… But the time has now come for the silent majority to raise its voice." He was clear about what is and isn't enough. Letters of support, he said, arrive in abundance. What is needed now is "an outright public condemnation." And he asked the question that hangs over this moment: "If this was happening to any other minority in the UK right now, I presume there would be a very different response from the nation and from the government. Why is it different for the Jewish people?" He is right. Jewish life in Britain is facing a level of threat not seen for generations. Going to synagogue, walking children to a Jewish school, wearing a kippah, shopping in a kosher store - ordinary acts that increasingly feel like acts of defiance. In the past five weeks, four Hatzola ambulances have been firebombed, synagogues attacked and two Jewish men stabbed on the sreet. The terror threat has been raised to severe. Some have spoken. HM The King, politicians from across the parties, faith leaders and others have rightly condemned these attacks. But the response the Chief Rabbi is asking for - and that this moment demands - must be broader than that. Prominent Muslim leaders and organisations - the imams, mosque federations - must speak out clearly and publicly against this hatred. The unions and the vice-chancellors of our universities, given what Jewish students are now living through on our campuses, must raise their voices. Our football authorities, cultural institutions, bishops and anti-racism charities must join in condemning these attacks. Too many have said nothing. That silence is being heard, in every Jewish home in this country. The Chief Rabbi has spoken for British Jews. The rest of us must answer him - clearly, publicly, and now.

"Life expectancy has doubled since 1900, so clearly modern food is working." Yes. Brilliant point. Absolutely watertight. Tell me, when you picture a Victorian dying at thirty-eight, what do you think killed him? Was it the butter on his bread? Was it the lard in the pan? Was it the grass-fed mutton? The eggs from the yard? The unpasteurised milk straight from the cow he could see from the kitchen window? Or was it cholera, tuberculosis, dysentery, smallpox, sepsis from a splinter, childbirth in a room with no soap, a boiler explosion, a coal mine, a war, a workhouse, and the entirely reasonable medical practice of being bled by a man with a leech? We did not extend life expectancy by replacing his lard with sunflower oil. We extended it by inventing the toilet, the antibiotic, and the idea that surgeons might wash their hands occasionally. The margarine is doing nothing. The margarine is, if anything, slightly working against the project. The plumbing did the heavy lifting. Give the plumber a statue.

@CorbynCorbyn2 @TomLondon6 @seabee0 @chiefrabbi It might be worth your looking at all the people on twitter who use a picture, not of themselves, but often of a famous person past or present, in their bio. I don't understand your problem If someone speaks well, with wisdom & understanding, he could be the man in the moon ....

Zionists need to make up their minds. If they want to defend Israel committing genocide in the name of Jews, they can't then complain when Jews get blamed for Israel committing genocide. They need to decide what's more important to them: the safety of Jews or defending Israel.

Basically every Israel-Palestine debate goes like this: "Israel did X." "Yeah, because the Palestinians did Y." "Yeah, because Israel did Z." "Yeah but only because the Arabs did A." But if you bring the debate back far enough in time, eventually you get to the part where the western world forcibly dropped a brand new ethnostate on top of a pre-existing civilization without the permission of — and to the extreme detriment of — the people who were already living there. Sure you can go further back and say "Oh yeah well the Jews lived there thousands of years ago," but that's just silly. There's no valid reason to believe some Jewish guy in New York City even has any meaningful lineage connecting him to that land more strongly than any random Muslim in Turkey or wherever, and even if there was, it would still be absurd to cite ancient history as the basis for a territorial claim. I'm only a few generations removed from my ancestry in Ireland and Scotland, but it would be ridiculous for me to show up demanding the home of someone who lives there. So the original source for the grievance is clearly the artificial creation of an ethnonationalist state in the mid-20th century, and the push by Zionists and western imperialists to make it happen. And how has that decision worked out? You see the results before you. Generations of nonstop violence and abuse, culminating in the slaughter and chaos throughout the middle east today. This means that creating Israel was a mistake. A mistake that needs to be corrected. Zionists will collapse into a shrieking pile of vitriol and hyperbole when you say this, claiming you're calling for the extermination of Jews, but this is false. Certainly ending a national order premised on putting the interests of Jews before Palestinians and righting the wrongs of the past would inconvenience a lot of the Jewish people who've been living there, but there's no basis for the claim that it would entail their deaths. Apartheid South Africa was dismantled without the extermination of millions of white people, and there's no reason to believe the dismantling of apartheid Israel would entail the extermination of Jews. The Israel experiment has been tried, and it has failed. It is time to try something else.

The stabbing of two Jewish men is horrifying. So too is the attack on a Muslim man the same day, ignored by much of our media. All human lives are equal — and we should oppose all hatred and violence wherever it appears. That’s how we build a safe & peaceful society for all.

It's fucking insane to say there's no link at all between the rise in antisemitism in Britain and the endless, abominable crimes of the only Jewish state, and yet boldly claim the marches protesting against the crimes ARE connected? Like, wtf??!! 🤯

@TomLondon6 @chiefrabbi Tom thank you for that, it is not easy for you to say, but thank you. I know there are many people in the Jewish community who feel the same way. We must work for peace and the removal of Netanyahu.

@TomLondon6 Right, but you cannot deny that he speaks for the majority of Jews given that he is chief Rabbi of the United Synagogue which is what most British Jews affiliate themselves with. Go out & enjoy the sun you miserable, self-hating “as a Jew” kappo
