Manchester Terror Exposes the Anti-Jewish Mask of ‘Activists’

As you are probably already aware, a Jew-hating terrorist perpetrated a stabbing and car-ramming attack outside a Synagogue in Manchester on Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish calendar. Two Jews were murdered, and four more seriously injured by the attacker, who – surprise, surprise – was a refugee from Syria who is understood to have entered the UK as a young child.

Somewhat appropriately, his name was Jihad al-Shamie. And he was thankfully killed before murdering even more Jews, sending him to his 72 raisins.

This in itself should be a wake-up call about the dangers of many (not all of course) refugees from Muslim lands. But what happened next is no less one.

Rabid “protesters” – many of whom are also refugees or children of these refugees, but also their ‘woke’ allies – once again showed just how vile and morally bankrupt they truly are.

A woman attending a pro-Palestine protest on the day of a horrific knife attack outside a synagogue has said she ‘doesn’t give a f*** about the Jewish community’.

Hundreds of activists have gathered outside the gates of Downing Street in Westminster as part of a protest against the detention of members of the Global Sumud Flotilla, which included Greta Thunberg.

The march, taking place just hours after two people were killed in a ‘barbaric’ knife attack outside the Heaton Park Synagogue in Manchester, has been criticised for its poor timing and described as ‘disgraceful, disrespectful’ behaviour.

Fiona Smith, 42, was among those taking part in the demonstration, during which she was heard saying: ‘I don’t give a f*** about the Jewish community right now.’ 

‘I thought about it and I’m sorry about what happened, but the whole story and why we’re here is because of what happened yesterday [with the flotilla],’ she added.

Elsewhere, Met Police officers have been seen scuffling with protesters, some of whom wore face masks and scarves, while one person was pictured being escorted away outside Parliament.

As the Jewish community went into mourning, protesters also marched through Manchester surrounded by police, waving Palestine flags and holding placards reading ‘Freedom for Palestine’ and ‘Stop starving Gaza’.

Hundreds of activists assembled outside Manchester Piccadilly Station before marching noisily towards Piccadilly Gardens, waving Palestinian flags, banging drums and chanting. 

One banner carried by protesters also read: ‘Israel is guilty of genocide, massacre, ethnic cleansing of Palestinian children and babies.’

The timing of the protest, which also took place on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, sparked fury online, with people urging the protest to be stopped following the attack.

Here are some more scenes of these vile protesters in action:

But back to the report; I don’t think there is anything shocking about the woman declaring ‘I don’t give a f*** about the Jewish community right now’ – because she is just stating the bleeding obvious. None of these people do, despite their attempts to claim they do.

Activists, including Steph Bike, 58, of the Stop the War Coalition, said the minute’s silence proved their respect.

She said: ‘We felt it was important to condemn what happened this morning, because it’s an attack on one of our communities.

‘We reject anti-Semitism in all its forms. It is too early to comment, but it’s likely that the attack was motivated by anti-Semitism and we oppose all attacks on any of our communities.’

She added: ‘We are not protesting against Jewish communities here, it’s the Israeli state we are protesting. That is an important distinction.’

When you protest on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, you are already showing your disdain for Judaism. Add to this the fact the protests were right after the terror attack, no feeble statements about rejecting antisemitism can cut it. And let’s not forget that over 90% of Jews are “Zionist” since Zionism is integral to Judaism. Any Jews joining these protests are bugs, not features of Judaism. And the fact they would protest on Yom Kippur already speaks volumes – let alone after the murder of some of their fellow Jews.

As for the “minute’s silence”, it proves their disrespect.

That’s right. Not much of any silence, and it was called mainly for Gazans and selfie-boat Hamas propagandists.

At the end of the day, the mask slips every single time. These people can say “we oppose antisemitism” until they’re blue in the face, but their actions scream louder than their empty platitudes. When Jews are stabbed outside a synagogue on Yom Kippur, and their response is to march in support of Hamas flotilla fanboys, wave Palestinian flags, and shout lies about genocide – they’re not “standing against antisemitism.” They’re standing with it.
