Why a Nice Jewish Girl Went on a Tommy Robinson March

I think we can all agree that since October 7th, everything unequivocally changed for Jews, everywhere.

I couldn’t understand it, we suffered the most heinous atrocity since the Holocaust, yet people took to the streets, week after week, in our capital city, proudly marching in support of Hamas. I was beside myself with anger and disbelief. I didn’t know where to channel my indignation and then I discovered Twitter (or X as it’s now called).

Tommy Robinson is paid by Israel to spout Zionism. “What’s causing the Islamophobic riots across the UK, and why now? 1. The riots have been instigated by the Zionist asset Stephen Yaxley-Lennon (‘Tommy Robinson’), who has been working for the State of Israel since 2009 as part of the so-called ‘counterjihad’ Islamophobia movement established by that state. When his organisation, the English Defence League, was incorporated in 2011, two years after its inception, it was named the English & Jewish Defence League. The Jewish Defence League, a Zionist terrorist organisation, has been a key part of violent Islamophobic street thuggery in the UK over the past decade. 2. Yaxley-Lennon is one of the most high-profile actors in the State of Israel’s Online Influencers Programme in response to Operation Al-Aqsa Storm. He and others, like Oli London, Noa Tishby, Hen Mazzig, Arsen Ostrovsky and Emily Schrader (and many others) are paid to distribute Zionist propaganda, of which pushing back against pro-Palestine protests and sowing Islamophobia are two important and interlinked aims. 3. The recent Islamophobic riots in the UK should be seen as the latest phase of the State of Israel’s war on British Muslims, who it sees as originating the… Read more »

Your repeated use of the contrived nonsense pejorative ‘Islamophobia’ is telling in the extreme. So people have a pathological ‘phobia’ of Islam do they? Like spiders? Or heights? The truth is – and you know this full well – ‘phobia’ seeks to imply the problem is with the person not the issue. People don’t have an inbuilt prejudice against gravity, they just suffer from vertigo. It’s designed to close down all debate and instantly smear any criticism as a psychological problem with that person. The trouble is though it’s no longer working and astronauts can now smell this BS from space. I don’t have a ‘phobia’ of Islam, I am anti-Islam – as I am firmly against any ideology that seeks to control, bully, dominate and denigrate people, especially women. Just like the Covid cult with its freedom crushing lockdowns and its total disregard for people’s bodily sovereignty. Islam is the same. It is an intolerant, regressive, blinkered, violent, misogynistic ideology and it should not be accepted with welcoming arms in Britain, it should be called out for what it is – a domineering, pernicious control cult. When we live in a society where our cultural elites are squealing ‘misogynist’… Read more »

That may or may not be true but I don’t see that it’s overly relevant to the situation in the UK. Social cohesion seems to me a fragile creature and it has been under assault. It’s a mixture of culture, race, religion – the more different those things are, the harder it will be for groups to get on together.

Thus dismissing everything I’ve said with a sweeping, irrelevant, entirely predictable platitude.

The answer to that would be yes you’re right. As long as you strictly adhere to the teachings of the Prophet, don’t change allegiance to him under any circumstances, don’t criticise him or for Gods sake draw him under any circumstances, make sure you are fully aware at all times how right and great Allah is and how evil and wrong followers of other religions are – especially non-believers – and ensure all the women you know are aware that they must cover their hair, face and skin when they step outside the home otherwise they will be punished.

So yes, as long people live by those rules they’re all a lovely bunch of George Harrisons.

If true it is not a full answer.

Muslins and their religion believe in actively pushing their faith and creating a Muslim society. They do not believe in abandoning their ancient beliefs in order to fit in with the west.

We must work to get a government and Parliament which will:

1 stops immigration

2 allow work permits only when clearly of benefit to existing UK citizens and for a strictly limited time and purpose

3 insist on integration. Abandon the multi-cultural fetish because it is not a viable model for the future. Even if it was it has not been endorsed by the public.

4 show by their actions they recognise the damage mass immigration to so many.

So if the UK was still in the EU there’d be an arrest warrant out for Tommy Robinson then? They’re going to totally get him as soon as he gets off the plane aren’t they? These people are nauseating; ”Today, the State Targets Tommy Robinson. Tomorrow, It Will Be You. MP Stella Creasy, a British Labour and Co-operative politician who has served as the Member of Parliament for Walthamstow since 2010, revels in her power. In the streets, she laughs with jihadis and leftist supporters, declaring, “If we’d stayed in the European Union, there’d be a European Arrest Warrant for Tommy Robinson. He’s due to be arrested.” This radical politician is fully aware that Tommy Robinson’s life is under threat, yet she continues to incite radicals against him. Stella Creasy’s actions are not just a political stance but a clear and present danger to anyone who dares to stand against the state’s overreach.” https://x.com/AmyMek/status/1821458123829424271 Meanwhile, do you think this applies to the ‘protected ones’ or just the ones tarred with the ‘far right’ brush? ”UK REGIME TO STOP BENEFITS FOR PEOPLE THAT ENGAGED IN RIOTS The regime gets more wicked by the day Question: Do they stop the benefits of… Read more »

The state has a radical, extremist immigration policy which allows hundreds of thousands of immigrants into Britain LEGALLY every year, a huge number of which happen to be Muslim.

The government is going to defend its radical, extremist policy and never admit its failure. Like it always does. They never backed down from lockdowns, never backed down from masks, from covid jabs. They’re not backing down from Net Zero.

Extremists never back down. They double down.

Our radical, extremist state will defend its catastrophic immigration policies to the end, consequences be dawned.

I think it’s unfortunate that two issues are being intertwined by both being strongly associated with Robinson. I know nothing about him, and I don’t want to get into the “zionism” business. I think we have an issue with mass immigration, legal and illegal. The presence of a large number of Muslims is just one element of that. It’s a shame that people who would otherwise support some of Robinson’s views, as I understand them, are put off by his other supposed associations and positions on other topics.

Maybe we should stop talking so much about Robinson and start talking more about what we all agree on.

I think one of the things regarding the Birmingham policing fiasco ( or lack thereof ) is the fact that this was most likely a city where West Midlands police play second fiddle to the Muslims because Sharia law trumps the law of the land over there. This is backed up by the clips shared on here yesterday of a couple of high-ranked police officers talking in an Islamic centre and using Arabic phrases in their spiels. Well, surely it’s predictable that if there are allowed to be Sharia courts and whatnot in Muslim-heavy areas of the UK so-called two-tier policing is inevitable because the British police in those areas totally capitulate to the Muslims and ‘bend over for Islam’. So I think what we saw in Birmingham should come as no surprise to anyone. It’s a disgrace, don’t you think? You want to live under Sharia then bog off to some Sharia-following Muslim land then. ‘Cultural differences’ shouldn’t come into it.

I watched some of the event on livestream, courtesy of UrbanScoop.news and the Daily Telegraph. There were many speakers, including Andrew Bridgen, a vaccine-injured person, a victim of Muslim grooming, frustrated patriots and others speaking out for freedom of speech. Among them were quite a lot of coloured people.

A speaker and some musicians from The Spirit Embassy church in Tottenham (also black) were given remarkable freedom to have their say. The speaker led the crowd in the Lord’s Prayer and the musicians sang, not very tunefully, the blessing of Numbers 6:24 over the attenders. Voice of Wales Media warned against the promotion of Islam in the country. “Our Christian civilization is under threat.” Robinson himself objected to the French Olympics’ mocking of Christianity.

Viewer numbers had reached 526,000 by the close just after 5.40 pm – over half a million!

Christians were even arrested in Paris for calling out the mocking of their religion at the Games. Good job Christians typically don’t have form for going around chopping heads off, stabbing or blowing people up if they feel affronted by any non-Christian even remotely criticising Jesus or their religion;

”Seven Spanish Christians were arrested in Paris on Monday after driving through the city in a bus protesting the blasphemous depiction of the Last Supper at the Olympics opening ceremony.
The bus, which was organised by the campaign group CitizenGo, was decorated with the Olympic rings and a picture of the controversial Last Supper parody, along with the words “Stop attacks on Christians.”

Thanks to DS for this very important article by Jacqui Fisher. Her quote from Tommy Robinson is crucial:

 “They’ve sent a message to the British population that if you want to be heard, you have to riot”.

Here is a comment from the public that helps us all to understand the reasons behind it:

“To be fair, the people of this country have been very tolerant. We’ve seen murders, bombings, grooming gangs, teachers still in hiding. We’ve prayed for the victims, candles lit, songs and speeches. Communities flooded with illegal immigrants and the ramifications of such we have to tolerate. Anyone who does not have to deal with this really should not condemn when people have had enough, and the politicians should be forced to live amongst it.”

That’s the thing: the British people have hitherto responded to horrific immigrant atrocities in “socially acceptable ways”—prayers, vigils, lighting candles, songs, speeches, letters to MPs, letters to newspapers, setting up new charities, sending donations to the victims, peaceful marches, and tributes to the slain. All to no avail.

But Robinson? Is it really true that he did good in exposing the Rochdale grooming gangs? Was it really he who exposed them? I think not. As far as I could see, he just jumped on that bandwagon when the controversy erupted.

And does he bring people together? No. He divides us and undermines the peace and security of Britain and its people.

No he didn’t jump on a bandwagon. He was talking on Newsnight about the grooming gangs with Jeremy Paxton in 2011 and a year or so before he helped Andrew Norfolk write a piece for the Times (or Sunday Times) which was headline news at the time.

And no, he doesn’t divide people – it is just that a lot of virtue signallers, following the lead of our establishment demonise him and say he divides us.

Sorry to rejoin the discussion so late but there are many major and completely different problems that, with due respect, people are mixing into one:

  • there is far too much immigration, much of which is illegal or at least questionable, in UK,
  • many immigrants follow the muslim religion which, like all single deity religions, is quite violent (the Bible is equally full of ‘niceties’),
  • some immigrants are ridiculously extreme in their zealotry to the point where they go around attacking completely innocent people,
  • many British youths are equally violent but tend to knife each other,
  • Israel is an apartheid state and practising genocide,
  • many British are influenced by Israeli propaganda denying the last point,
  • many immigrants are frustrated by these latter denials.
