UK: Pro-Palestinians disrupt talk by Israeli pro-Palestinian

Yachad is a Jewish organization which is pro-Israel, pro-peace, pro-two-state-solution.  They organize tours in Israel showing how bad Israel is, and sometimes even slip into actual anti-Zionism.

This week they're hosting Ami Ayalon.  A former director of Israel's security agency and a former commander of Israel's navy, he's also a peace activist.  Together with Sari Nusseibeh he authored "The People's Voice" peace initiative.

These are the type of people that anybody who cares about the Palestinians should uphold and embrace.   But these activists don't care about the Palestinians, their aim is to destroy Israel, and therefore Yachad and Ayalon are perfectly acceptable targets.

Jews will not be allowed to speak unless they speak out for destroying the only Jewish state.

As soon as the doors shut the frustrated anti-Israel activists pounded the doors and the windows looking into the talk. They screamed “Free Free Palestine”, “Viva Viva Palestina” and “From the River to the Sea Palestine will be free” and smashed a window.

Anti-Israel protesters hurled a firebomb at a synagogue during an unauthorized demonstration in a heavily Jewish suburb of Paris. 

The riot broke out on Sunday afternoon in Sarcelles after a few hundred people assembled at a local metro station to protest Israel’s actions in Gaza, as well as the decision by French Interior Minister Bernard Cazaneuve to ban rallies against Israel following the staging of riots last week outside several synagogues in the Paris region. 

The firebomb was hurled at the Synagogue of Garges-Les-Gonesse at a smaller rally that splintered off the main demonstration. It hit the building but did not cause serious damage, the daily online edition of Le Figaro reported.

The rioters also looted the nearby [Jewish] shops:

Looters then began raiding shops, wrecking a funeral home and destroying its front window as several protesters shouted: "F***k Israel!". 

Others raided a drugstore which caught fire. Young girls grabbed baby milk inside. 

"We're going to get the cash register," one person shouted, his voice drowned by the noise of a police helicopter overhead and the alarm of a nearby pizzeria.

Sweden: Experts warn attempts to denazify Sweden are failing

More than half of the 26 people arrested in Sunday's neo-Nazi riot in Stockholm are younger than 20. Experts warn attempts to denazify Sweden are failing, as a new generation of "social outcasts" emerges. 

There were sweeping arrests following the incident that marred an anti-Nazi demonstration by local residents, including families with children, in the Kärrtorp neighbourhood of the capital. Members of the far-right Swedish Resistance Movement (Svenska motståndsrörelsen) attacked the peaceful protest, which left three people hospitalized.
