Boycott Israel

Antisemitism in the undergrowth

Then there is the sinister side of Tolpuddle. The movements that these people align with, are being hijacked. As I arrived, I saw a few Palestinian flags, flying in the campsite.



There were dozens of stands, many of unions, some of political movements. Several (like War on Want, the Palestine Solidarity Campaign, Medical Aid for Palestinians) were pushing the ‘destroy Israel’ narrative. Almost everywhere that it would be legitimate to carry an international cause, the only one visible was ‘Palestine’. In the bookshop, the only books on the conflict were from anti-Israel activists and propagandists like Ben White and Ilan Pappe:



The Zionist voice is not present at all. Anywhere.

Desensitised Labour members

Tolpuddle is not a ‘Labour Party’ event, even though the vast majority of those walking around are clearly Labour voters. The Communist Party have a stall too. They have an ‘international bulletin’ on display, the subject – ‘Palestine’:





Walking around, looking at the stalls, there was anti-Zionist imagery everywhere. This was one of the badges on sale:

However in atoning for its 1922 sin - Sweden’s recognition of the “State of Palestine” was a fiction that failed to meet the requirements demanded in international law by Article 1 of the 1933 Montevideo Convention:

“The state as a person of international law should possess the following qualifications:

• A permanent population
• A defined territory
• Government
• Capacity to enter into relations with the other states

FIFA’s admission of the Palestinian Football Federation as a FIFA member in 1988 had also contravened Article 10.1 of FIFA’s then governing articles:

"Any Association which is responsible for organising and supervising football in its country may become a Member of FIFA. In this context, the expression “country” shall refer to an independent state recognised by the international Community.”

FIFA started living in its own dream world 26 years before Sweden joined it.

Who would replace Sweden as Britain’s nemesis was summed up by another fan:

“Anyone supporting England is supporting Israel itself. These teams represent their countries and governments and will raise their flags in the stands. How can I support the country that allowed the Jewish state on our land?”

Gazan fans were in for a shock and a reality check when they began choosing one of the three remaining teams – France, Belgium or Croatia - to topple the evil Brits. These three contenders just happen to have all voted in favour of the Mandate for Palestine incorporating the Balfour Declaration.

Robert Cohen, their head of executive external communications (yes, he seems to be Jewish) has been rather sloppy on social media. Here he is endorsing a boycott of Israel, and not just the so-called settlements:



Oops!

Not that this is surprising. Cohen has made clear his support for the boycott of Israel, even speaking this year at Israel Apartheid Week on the subject.

Amended – but Still Unconstitutional – Israel Anti-Boycott Act Approved by House Committee
June 29, 2018

Yesterday, the House Foreign Affairs committee approved an amended version of the Israel Anti-Boycott Act, a widely-criticized bill that would prohibit – and in some cases criminalize – a variety of actions taken to “comply with, further, or support” boycotts for Palestinian rights called for by the United Nations or the European Union.

The amended bill calls on President Trump to issue regulations to prohibit U.S. persons from participating in such boycotts. The bill would also prohibit “furnishing information” about the boycotts.

The amended Israel Anti-Boycott Act does little to overcome the constitutional infirmities that plagued previous iterations of the bill. U.S. courts have long held that political boycotts, like boycotts for Palestinian rights, are protected by the First Amendment. Congress may not enact laws that prohibit or punish participation in First Amendment protected conduct.

“All these agreements attempt to change the people’s perspective on the Palestinian cause, whether by entering Palestine through an Israeli visa or an Israeli passport. Jordanians have sacrificed their lives for Palestine. Jordanian and Palestinian blood [is]united over one humanitarian cause over the years; these decisions will turn blood into water,” claimed Rakan Hiasat, member of Etharrak and the anti-Zionism and racism movement.
---------------

Remember, when they talk about "Israelis," they mean only Jews. Because Israeli Arabs are welcome in Jordan as "Palestinians."

So the apparent error referring to the "anti-Zionism and racism movement" is pretty accurate - anti-Zionism is racism (well, bigotry, but if they define Israel as racist, then antisemitism is racism too under their own definition.)
