'Globalise the Infitada'. What does it mean? The literal translation is to 'shake off oppression world wide' Where did it come from? Iraq, 1952: Citizens of Baghdad engaged in a series of large-scale protests against the Iraqi government, widely referred to as "the Intifada." Britannica Kids Sudan, 1964: The October Revolution - strikes, riots and demonstrations that ended the Abbud military dictatorship. Called an intifada. Bahrain, 1965: The March Intifada - a leftist uprising against British colonial presence. Western Sahara, 1970: The Zemla Intifada against Spanish colonial rule. Then the First Sahrawi Intifada and Second Sahrawi Intifada against Moroccan occupation. Egypt, 1977: The bread riots were called the "bread intifada." Egypt, 1984: A bloody uprising and civil resistance movement. Palestine, 1987-1993: The First Intifada. This is when English-language media adopted the word. Bahrain, 1990s: A popular uprising demanding a return to democratic rule, known as the "1990s Intifada." Iraq, 1991: Armed uprising against Saddam Hussein after the Gulf War. Palestine, 2000-2005: The Second or Al-Aqsa Intifada. Lebanon, 2005: The Cedar Revolution after Hariri's assassination was called the "Intifada of Independence." Iraq, 2003: Muqtada al-Sadr, a militant Shia cleric, launched an uprising which he also referred to as the "Iraqi Intifada" aimed at ending the US-led foreign military presence in Iraq. France, 2005: The historian Andrew Hussey referred to the 2005 French riots as "the French Intifada." Arab Spring, The 2011 uprisings across Arab-majority countries were often dubbed events of "intifada" including in the early months of the uprisings in Libya and Syria. If we ban the term would that then include the translation.. 'Shake off oppression worldwide'

Translation: antisemitism is perfectly OK if the victim is a Jew you don't like.

@HeidiBachram @jwomencount2 @rachelmillward @ZackPolanski Yes definitely, its condemned and no one should be doing it, look forward to your post about it. I find it odd there's little solidarity with a Jewish leader due differing political beliefs

@WallaseyWayne @jwomencount2 @rachelmillward @ZackPolanski I can condemn it. Will the Greens condemn the Nazi salutes at the hate marches and stop denying what’s happening?

1. Antisemitism is real and revolting 2. To march against UK government support of genocide is to march *against* hate 3. There is nothing Jewish about Netanyahu's crimes 4. We stand against hate in all its forms. Including antisemitic cartoons of @ZackPolanski in The Times

@LiamSota @owenjonesjourno Hes left wing too, disgusting

@WallaseyWayne @owenjonesjourno Luis Diaz was also doing salutes to Zack after he scored the other day it’s out of hand

This is an absolutely shocking interview. Trevor Phillips doesn't even try to hide his obvious burning political hostility. Zack Polanski did very well as his interviewer distorted what he said and treated him with contempt.

@HeidiBachram @jwomencount2 @rachelmillward @ZackPolanski Agree! So can we address the nazi salutes to the only Jewish leader of a major political party?

@rachelmillward @ZackPolanski The greatest threat to British Jews are those who deny antisemitism is caused by antisemites.

@DeepHouseBear @LetschangeHull @ExposedGreens Welcome 🙏

@WallaseyWayne @LetschangeHull @ExposedGreens So she opposed it. Thanks for clarifying.

🚨EXPOSE: The Green Hypocrite of Furzedown Adam Kamenetzky, 45, is the Green Party candidate for Furzedown ward in Wandsworth’s May 2026 local elections. A south Londoner living in Furzedown with his family, he poses as a passionate environmentalist and “activist researcher.” Yet he daily drives a 2.1-litre Mercedes M-Class diesel SUV.... the very type his party vows to ban new sales of within three years and phase off UK roads entirely. Kamenetzky is also a lead claimant in the blockbuster “dieselgate” High Court case against Mercedes and other makers, demanding they be held accountable for emissions deception. He told The Guardian last October: “I want the alleged deception... brought into the open.” His Green membership was mysteriously omitted from that “lefty-green bible” profile. Preaching net-zero sacrifice for you while guzzling diesel himself. Classic Green Hypocrisy.

@ZackPolanski Horrible, hopefully all the accounts highlighting antisemitism will be all over this and show solidarity?

When Jewish people speak out against genocide, why are our voices dismissed? And smirking while I describe someone Nazi-saluting at me isn’t just disrespectful - it feels deeply antisemitic. youtu.be/7VkfYJgLljE?si…

@SimonHarrisMBD One of them wanted peace in the middle east, the raging antisemite.

Yet more Green Party HYPOCRISY! I spotted a group of local canvassers yesterday and every single one of them was breathing out huge amounts of carbon dioxide. They claim to care about the environment, and at the same time they emit CO2 gas into the atmosphere. It’s a disgrace.

Thing you are missing is she didn't oppose refugees. She opposed Labour dumping 600 people into a community with zero consultation, no support services and no right to work, this is actually the Green position. Every local politician opposed the process, including the Tory MP. The Home Office director apologised at the public meeting for the chaos. Opposing bad policy isn't hypocrisy, its ensuring consistency. She filmed herself outside the camp demanding asylum seekers be given the right to work. So shes doing her job as a local councillor while holding their national position? Meanwhile Labour have Dan Morris arrested for child sex offences, Reforms Treasurer Nick Candy in the Epstein files, but yeah man drives car is horrific 😳

@WallaseyWayne @ExposedGreens I'd like to see those who are always talking about the working class and public transport using public transport themselves. Not that I can imagine our Rach👇 using public transport. x.com/ExposedGreens/…

@LetschangeHull @b60243 @hoppyite @ExposedGreens OK yes, let's go after every dentist that eats sugar then, bloody hypocrites

@b60243 @hoppyite @WallaseyWayne @ExposedGreens Exactly 💯 many of the ppl there proclaiming to stand for have to walk and jump onto public transport so why can't The Green Party members do the same.

@Heccles94 Hi Harry, offence is the best form of defence. Not heard much about this ?

@JamesEFoster @ZackPolanski Or Nick Candy ?

@JamesEFoster @ZackPolanski Is there any news on Dan Norris?

.@ZackPolanski doesn’t need lectures when it comes to antisemitism. He has to deal with it on a daily basis — & from those who claim to be fighting it and stamping it out. Those lecturing him & making demands of him have no interest in him. He should tell them to get stuffed.

@doctoriaindarcy @SteveReed x.com/i/status/20506…

Hi @stevereed. Some antisemitism for you to call out. Chop chop. You have gone quiet. Anyone would think you were behind this grossly antisemitic attack. Arranged with the Times earlier this week was it? Simple yes or no will do.

The Times has published a rabidly antisemitic caricature of Jewish Green Party leader @ZackPolanski Same racist style as cartoons of Jews in the Nazi paper Der Sturmer Have the press regulator, Culture Secretary & Jewish organisations denounced this antisemitism?

@Heccles94 x.com/i/status/20506…

Labour don’t want you to vote Greens. The Tories don’t want you to vote Green. Reform don’t want you to vote Green. That tells you all you need to know. 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

@Heddhurtz @owenjonesjourno Experiment, try it .. make your own characture of a leading Israeli, say you're in the green party, post it online see what happens.

@owenjonesjourno Eh? It really isn't anti-semitic. What does do is draw attention to Polanski metaphorically putting the boot into the police.

An obvious antisemitic caricature of Zack Polanski in The Times. But there will be no media or political outrage, which tells you all you need to know.
