(Jewish News-UK) Mathilde Frot - The Guardian has apologized for illustrating an article on the rise in anti-Semitism in the UK with a photo of Palestinians protesting along the Gaza border. A Guardian spokesperson said: "We apologize for the original photo on the story which should not have been used, and has now been replaced." A Board of Deputies of British Jews spokesperson said: "Using that photo in the first place provides a disturbing insight into the newspaper's attitudes about anti-Semitism, Jews and Israel." Mark Gardner, Director of Communications at Britain's Community Security Trust, said: "We are glad that the picture was changed, because this is about Britain, not Israel, and it is time that was understood."
