I agree with NM in that this is a very dangerous and worrying situation. I've had otherwise reasonable and level headed friends berate me quite violently just for saying that 'Israel has a point' in attacking Hamas. It is extremely dodgy when normal people start parroting the lies and propaganda of Hamas as some form of truth. Great new blog.

In the UK, the level of anti semitism is now at an all time high. And for the Health Minister, Ben Bradshaw, to feel that he could openly - and irrationally! - accuse Israel of 'bullying' the BBC should set alarm bells ringing with the Jewish community. You are spot on.

I'm glad I stumbled upon this. I agree about Israel being a shining moral example. Most of the world just doesn't realize it because they don't experience anything near what Israel goes through daily as a nation. Wow… really well written and provocative.

"Let's just not talk about it. I'll say things that'd probably offend you. I'm too angry about bloody Israel at the moment to think straight". Startling, to say the least, but not uncommon. Israel-hatred as an irrational, psychosexual phenomenon seems to have seeped into every corner of this isle.
