    speculative: isis-vintage (i think 2months ago they sent a call to do something like this), just in time to crack down on pro-humanity protestors.

    Israel’s foreign minister echoed that sentiment and said Jews in Britain were “suffering from a horrific wave of antisemitism”.

    just lmao

      Even more ridiculous if it is ISIS. “I am deeply shocked and appalled at what our friends in ISIS have done. You were supposed to murder only Arabs and other gentiles.”

        it’s truly speculative at this point on my part, might be some local dum-dum.

        but of course, isis in europe works on strategy of tension wavelength, always did: plausible targets for fundamentalist ire, zero chance of anything changing from it.

        (if say, same person attacked two elbit workers, i wouldn’t have any suspicions on the isis non-affiliation)

      Then fucking leave.

      It’s awful, but I don’t remember the kids that got blown up attending an Ariana Grande concert claiming it was because Britain was uniquely hateful towards Ariana Grande fans. Imagine taking an actual terrible act of violence and blaming everyone but the person who actually did it, laid dead on the ground in front of you.

      Outside of Israel you literally couldn’t find a more inherently pro-Zionist country (and we all know Zionist is what this person meant), so if that’s not enough for you pack your fucking bags.

        Jewish zionists often say this (“Jews are no longer safe anywhere except Israel”), both inside and outside of Israel. However, as Jewish anti-zionists constantly point out, they don’t even believe it themselves. Few of them move, and most who do do so for the economic benefits of getting things for free that are stolen from Palestinians.

        I feel bad for someone so steeped in zionist messaging that their immediate reaction to this terrible tragedy is that Britain is unsafe for Jews.

          Exactly. It’s bullshit, the people who trot it out every time know it’s bullshit, and the irony is that it actually devalues and demeans Jewish lives. Those were fucking people with lives and loved ones, just like every other victim of random violence, not a fucking trite, bullshit talking point that already gets trotted out for everything from Corbyn going to the ‘wrong’ seder to a comedian being asked to apologise for doing a racist blackface routine. Zionism can’t even stop dehumanising it’s own supposed ‘own’, never mind everyone else. It’s a cancer that eats everything it comes into contact with.

            It’s not irony, zionists don’t value Jewish lives, especially those of the diaspora.
