The Anti-Israel Mob Is Twisted beyond Belief
(Telegraph-UK) Brendan O'Neill - In North London, once again a mob of anti-Zionist imbeciles has roughed up a newly-opened branch of Gail's, an upmarket bakery chain. It was instantly besieged by the usual keffiyeh clowns yelping about Israel's "genocide." The preening fools of the cult of Israelophobia gathered outside the bakery to unfurl a vast banner saying "Boycott Israel for Genocide and War Crimes in Gaza." What does a bakery in North London got to do with Israel's war against the antisemites of Hamas? Gail's was founded by the Israeli baker Gail Mejia, who is not associated with the business anymore. But I'm not sure that would make a blind bit of difference to the frenzied Israel-haters. The very fact that Gail's was founded by someone from the Jewish state they love to hate would be enough to damn it as toxic, morally unclean, and a chain that all good people must boycott. To rage against a bakery on the basis that a citizen of the Jewish nation founded it is to make a spectacle of your own swirling prejudices and irrational hatreds. We see students fuming like a medieval mob whenever an Israeli representative is invited to their campus. And hotheads wearing the Palestinian flag smashing Israeli produce in the supermarket aisles. Making moral cleanliness dependent on one's willingness to boycott Israel is twisted beyond belief. The old fascists wanted to make Europe Judenfrei - the new lot want to make it Israelfrei. Different words, same vile bigotry.
