You know who doesn't go around shooting people, stabbing people beheading people, and randomly massacring worshippers for the purposes of their religion? British Jews


Nor do they openly despise me, our country, its values. Nor are they a massive net fiscal drag on the economy. They are resourceful, hardworking, law abiding. British Jews. And they are the ones being attacked

Jewish people have lived peacefully in north Manchester for hundreds of years. A nice quiet community, peacefully co-existing with their neighbours. I went to college just up the road in the 1990s and it was a great time. I then lived in Golders Green as a young graduate. As a young woman, I never felt anything other than totally safe there.

These are our people. We need to protect them.

Police will let a pro-Palestine protest go ahead at a Manchester railway station just hours after a terror attack on a synagogue.

The British Transport Police (BTP) said they are stepping up patrols after pro-Palestine activists began urging each other to descend on Manchester station at 5.30pm on Thursday.

A force spokesman said BTP would “facilitate peaceful protest” but that officers would intervene if protesters tried to get inside the station.

Social media posts urged pro-Palestine activists to “block the tracks” in protest against Israel’s arrest of Greta Thunberg.

The protestors are really bad at reading the room, aren't they?

We're not dealing with the best and brightest here.

Hamas weren't exactly bright on October 7th 2023. Arguably the most stupid terrorist attack in history,

Sadly, the leaders of Hamas will regard the trade of Palestinians lives for greater hatred of Israel as a price well worth paying.

And they got recognition of Palestine from the U.K. as a result of their attack without any obligations on them to do anything at all. They are still holding hostages, slowly starving them. And today we see what "globalise the intifada" means in reality.

This is AFTER the Manchester attack

My God, I hate these people

"Liverpool Street right now, it’s grim to be a Jew in the UK. I’m absolutely sick , the police is here doing nothing while people chant ‘from the river to the sea’ and glorifying violence.

Prime Minister, you are responsible"

As with the Charlie Kirk assassination it's the glee at which the hard left has greeted this terrorist attack that is truly disgusting. A crazy terrorist is a sad fact of our society given the kind of immigration we've had into the country from the Islamic world, the apparent glee at the murder of these innocent people by the Gaza mob really shows what they're about.

We should never have tolerated their presence on our streets in the first place. Trump had it right, all of the foreign agitators should be deported and the rest should start to face consequences for glorifying terrorists and calling for violence against Jews.

Why is Fascist memorabiia so annoyingly expensive?

It was designed by the best.

Interesting. My late father brought home a Nazi officers dagger which he "acquired" somehow while helping to clear Jutland of German munitions in 1945. I recall seeing it when he came home, but my mother wanted nothing to do with it. When he died in 1992 we found it while clearing out his desk; my mother again said she wanted it out PDQ and my son took it, saying he knew someone who collected these things.
My son now says that his friend wants further details of the daggers 'provenance'. I suspect my father paid 50 cigarettes for it. Or something like that. Cigarettes were currency in just post-war Europe.

Have we missed the chance of a small fortune?

My understanding is that a lot of war loot was quietly disposed of as the War generation passed on. Flags and daggers and that kind of thing...

A conversatiom at work recently - someone reported that a relative had a painting which, we inferred, was war loot. "Was it the Fallen Madonna with the big boobies? Was it smuggled out in a sausage?" Those of us who were around in the 80s laughed; the young people simply looked baffled.
