George Galloway has ordered lawyers to issue Twitter users who alleged he was an anti-Semite with letters demanding £5,000 and threatening legal action.
The Bradford West MP has reportedly singled out up to a dozen people, including some who had only re-tweeted other posts and a charity worker with just 75 followers.
A substitute teacher has been told off for challenging a Holocaust denier during a Swedish for Immigrants (SFI) class in southern Sweden.
The teacher claimed one of the students questioned the Holocaust after watching a news segment about the persecution of Jews in an SFI class at adult education centre Kärnan in Helsingborg, newspaper Helsingborgs Dagblad has reported.
But the student said he was misunderstood and claims the teacher yelled at him.
The school co-ordinator later criticized the teacher over the incident – which prompted the student to leave the classroom – according to a recorded meeting about the incident quoted by Helsingborgs Dagblad.
“The student talked to me and he said he felt misunderstood and insulted and painted as a Holocaust denier and Nazi,” the co-ordinator is quoted as saying on the recording.
“What he said was to deny the Holocaust,” replied the teacher.
“Yes, but he felt unfairly treated after he had been accused of that.”
“He wasn’t accused. I only told him it is not okay to say that the Jews just lie.”
The co-ordinator went on to later add: “You should remember that what we think of as history is the history we've been taught. When we have students who have read other history books there's no point setting facts against each other.”
Once again this winter, following days of very heavy rainfall across the region, the banks of a riverbed running through central Gaza were breached, flooding dozens of Palestinian homes.
For the residents, there was no doubt: Israel was responsible after deliberately opening "a dam" to flood the enclave.
But an examination of the facts on the Israeli side tells another story, shattering a long-held Palestinian myth.
That Israel, the invisible enemy on the other side of the fence, would flood Gaza in a bid to make life even worse is therefore accepted as fact -- as is the alleged existence of one or more dams upstream controlled by the Jewish state.This is the same media, I'll remind you, that complains when ordinary citizens 'conflate' Jew and Israel. The same media that washes its hands of antisemitism when it reports that Israel (AKA 'The Jewish State') is responsible for the murder of innocent children, and forgets to report about Palestinian antisemitic incitement aimed at children and Palestinian glorification of terrorism aimed at children.

An ISIS e-book on how to accomplish their caliphate goal of sacking Rome stresses enlisting “the Islamic State’s secret weapon = secret white converts” to take on Italy.
Much of the book, “Black Flags from Rome,” is dedicated to laying out a case for why Muslims in Europe should rise up and assist ISIS from within, citing justifications for discontent from modern-day anti-immigration protests back to post-Ottoman creation of Muslim “ghettos.”
(...)
The book doesn’t include a publish date, but it discusses the “shocking secret” revealed by the Kouachi brothers’ January attacks in France and subsequent busting up of a terror cell in Belgium: “There were small armies of the Islamic State within every country of Europe by late 2014, and the intelligence agencies didn’t even know about it!”
It states that European Muslims can ally with “a growing population of left-winged activists (people who are against; human/animal abuses, Zionism, and Austerity measures etc)” who “look up to the Muslims as a force who are strong enough to fight against the injustices of the world” in countering a growing divide between Muslims and “right-wing neo-Nazis.” It specifically cites people who are “sometimes” allied with Anonymous or anarchy groups — even though, angered by the assault on Charlie Hebdo, Anonymous is currently carrying out a hacking operation to take down ISIS accounts.
“If you have ever been at a pro-Palestine / anti-Israel protest, you will see many activists who are not even Muslims who are supportive of what Muslims are calling for (the fall of Zionism). It is most likely here that connections between Muslims and Left-wing activists will be made, and a portion from them will realise that protests are not effective, and that armed combat is the alternative,” the book states. “So they will start to work together in small cells of groups to fight and sabotage against the ‘financial elite’.”
The book predicts such “recruits” sympathetic to their cause “will give intelligence, share weapons and do undercover work for the Muslims to pave the way for the conquest of Rome.”
A candidate from France’s far-Right Front National party has attacked Jews for apparently being responsible for the failure of his musical career.
Xavier Sainty, who is running for the FN in the central Allier region in upcoming municipal elections, blasted Jews for preventing his success as a crooner in a video posted on his Twitter account.
“Even in show business I’m blocked all round, Sainty said, claiming that a “Jewish producer” told him the following: “Since you’re not a Jew, you’ll never have the right to be on TV or radio and you’ll be barred because we’ve got the money and everything belongs to us, you will never get there.”
“That’s how we’ve been treated for decades, we the ‘goys’,” Sainty added.
London - A man walking around in front of the Hendon Central Tube (train station), making a Nazi salute, as well as yelling antisemitic slurs directed at Jews – including calling on passersby to “kill all the Fucking Jews" was just arrested, thanks to volunteers of Shomrim London.
Supporters of a charity which aims to support English culture have been exposed giving Nazi salutes and making racist comments in an undercover investigation.
The Steadfast Trust, set up in 2004, claims to be the only charity representing the Anglo-Saxon community in England and supports “education, legal rights and welfare” for the English community.
The charity has been accused of supporting far-right political views and was de-registered by the Charity Commission in the UK following an investigation.
Supporters have now been shown proudly revealing their membership of far-right and racist groups including the National Front (NF), British National Party (BNP) and even the Ku Klux Klan (KKK).
Others were caught voicing racist tirades and chanting “victory to the Aryan race” in undercover footage obtained by a reporter on ITV1’s Exposure program.
The President of Germany's Central Council of Jews advised against wearing a kippa in neighborhoods with a high proportion of Muslims on Thursday.
Speaking in an interview with local radio, Josef Schuster said that observant Jews should consider covering their heads with less conspicuous headgear that would not so clearly identify them as Jews in potentially dangerous neighborhoods.
Schuster said that the potential for anti-Semitic attacks in the country had risen. He said that he could not have imagined that it would be necessary to give such advice five years ago.
While people should not succumb to fear, and security at Jewish institutions in the country is sufficient, precautions should still be taken in some neighborhoods, he added.
REINER: But this undercurrent of anti-Semitism has always been there. Just like racism, it's always there and then it just bubbles up to the surface every once in a while. And it's horrible now.
MAHER: Yeah, I mean, Netanyahu is asking European Jews to come to Israel and ...
NYE (wryly): Come home to Israel -- that's what he said, right?
MAHER: Well, I mean, he is the ...
NYE (interrupting again): But you never, the people have never been there. They live, grew up in whatever, in Germany or France.
MAHER: It's a shame that they should have to move, uh ...
NYE: Well, they probably won't either, 'cause it's not their home, you know.
REINER: But you can understand it. There were German Jews that lived in Germany during the Second World War and that was their home. And, you know, at a certain point, you know, if your live is in danger, you want to go to someplace where you're going to be protected.
NYE: So, what do you do about it? I think you get to know your neighbors. And it's gonna take, what, does it take a century, something like that?
The leader of a council which flew the Palestinian flag during last summer’s Gaza conflict told objectors that rising antisemitism was Israel’s fault.
Preston council leader Peter Rankin told one complainant: “You need to think why this antisemitism is getting worse. It’s because of the actions of the IDF shelling schools and hospitals and killing and maiming thousands of men, women and children.”

Gallia Watch: 371 attacks on French soldiers guarding Jewish schools and synagogues
Since January 15 the French army’s “Opération Sentinelle” has protected 722 Jewish schools and synagogues, some 24/7 even when the establishments were empty.
The operation came to be regarded as too dangerous for the soldiers who were regularly targets of attacks. Over time the men were worn out.
The army has reported 371 incidents perpetrated against the soldiers standing guard in front of the protected sites. The Defense Ministry has announced that the men will become more mobile, rendering them less vulnerable.

In a startling revelation in his so-called “Black Notebooks,” one of Germany’s leading philosophers of the 20th century, Martin Heidegger, blames the Jews for the Holocaust.
According to article in last week’s Italian daily Corriere della Sera by Heidegger expert Donatella Di Cesare, “The Shoah was an act of self-destruction by the Jews. This is the view that emerges from the new volume of Heidegger’s Black Notebooks.”
Heidegger wrote during the Holocaust in 1942 that the “community of Jews” is “in the age of the Christian West – the age of metaphysics – the principle of destruction.” He wrote further: “Only when what is essentially ‘Jewish,’ in the metaphysical sense, combats what is Jewish, is the peak of self-destruction in history reached.”
(...)
Di Cesare wrote that the Shoah for Heidegger is “presented as playing a decisive role” in a main tenant of Heidegger’s philosophy of the history of being.
Tottenham have called for tough action against fans who were shown on a video clip chanting a “vile” anti-Semitic song.
The video, filmed by a passenger on the London Underground, appears to show West Ham supporters chanting anti-Semitic songs before Sunday’s 2-2 draw at White Hart Lane.
The latest clip shows a group of fans standing in the Tube chanting “I’ve got foreskin, how about you? F******Jew.”
It comes days after a racist incident involving Chelsea football fans on a Paris Metro train.
Issoudun- several swastikas in a gym named after Cligman. The city of Issoudun had called the building after a Jewish family, very important local manufacturers, who were protected by the population during the Second World War.

A criminal court in Normandy has sentenced French Nazi ideologue Vincent Reynouard to two years in jail for denying the Holocaust in Facebook postings.
The case stems from a complaint filed by a Caen-based association that honours Canada’s Second World War soldiers and was attacked in Mr. Reynouard’s postings for its work commemorating the D-Day landings.
(...)
“Prison sentences in freedom-of-speech issues are usually suspended sentences,” Prof. Chilstein said in a telephone interview. “But we are in a context of rampant anti-Semitism, and since the January attacks [in Paris] everyone understands the power of words.” The court wants to appear tough on anti-Semitism.”

According to media reports, this is not the first time Israeli authorities have opened the floodgates to their Gaza Valley dams to discharge massive quantities of excessive water that accumulated during heavy rains or snowfall.The 'media reports' are of course Maan News, the Palestinian news agency that started this libel in the first place. RT posted as-is, without wondering where those 'Gaza valley dams' are located.

Elbeuf - According to a report from its President on Wednesday, the little synagogue in the small town of Elbeuf in the Seine-Maritime district of the Haute-Normandie region was desecrated between Saturday night and Sunday morning.
The perpetrators of the crime daubed red paint on the yellow Stars of David which had been drawn by antisemites during the Winter Stadium Arrests (Vel d'Hiv) from which, with the agreement and assistance of Laval and Petain, tens of thousands of Jews (men women and children) were sent to concentration camps and to the gas chambers.
At 0830hrs this morning, Holocaust survivor’s daughter Yochy Davis and a team of fellow-protesters from the newly launched Jewish Human Rights Watch (JHRW) movement stood their ground outside the War On Words HQ in London.
With ‘War On Jews’ placard in hand Yochy explained, “70 years ago My father was a victim the same sort of boycott when they were introduced by the Nazis in Germany. Here we are today 70 years later being made once again a victim of the precisely the same anti-Semitism – only this time in Britain”.
At a time of rising attacks on Jews across Europe, War On Want must understand that their actions are contributing to the incitement of hatred of the British Jewish community. We call upon War On Want to end its discriminatory policies and dissociate itself from BDS.
Jewish leaders in Hungary condemned a politician from the far-right Jobbik party who refused to honor the memory of a former chief rabbi.
The Mazsihisz federation of Hungarian Jewish communities issued its condemnation Friday against Laszlo Benke, an alderman of Budapest’s 13th district representing Jobbik — a movement which the European Jewish Congress has called both neo-Nazi and anti-Semitic, though the party rejects this description.
According to Mazsihisz, Benke on Feb. 12 remained seated in his chair despite the request by the district’s mayor, Jozef Toth, that all alderman stand up in memory of former chief rabbi Jozsef Schweitzer, who died on Feb. 5 at the age of 92. He was an honorary resident of the district.
Throughout the minute of silence in Schweitzer’s memory, Benke remained the only person in the room seated, according to Mazsihisz, which also said he later boasted about his action to people who were not present.
