“Stop Whispering”
A column in today’s Jerusalem Post discusses the British media, anti-Semitism, and “silent diplomacy” vs. “saying it like it is.”
The writer, Isi Leibler, notes:
While many Anglo-Jews insist that anti-Semitism is primarily a product of Muslim immigrants, the reality – as recently confirmed in a London police study – is that the core of anti-Semitism in England emanates from indigenous Britons. They are the ones demonizing Israel in the media. … It is “white” British academics, not Muslim immigrants, who promote anti-Israeli boycotts and divestment campaigns. And, needless to say, the BBC which has evolved into one of the greatest global agents demonizing Israel is not run by Muslims.
And concludes:
If Jews will not fight back, they will soon have to ask themselves: Is this the sort of society in which our children and grandchildren are going to live?
