Raed Salah has lost his appeal because he was found to have no right to voice his political opinions.
Another further drop in British democracy.
When judges follow politicians, not the law
I think this is the most politically motivate abuse of our justice system I have yet seen. I am in no doubt now that Britain is a fascist State and our independent Judiciary is no more. We saw a similar instance early in the year when the looters and rioters when the courts on the dictate of the Government gave those caught prison sentences massively in excess of what such crimes usually got. It is indeed a dark and shameful day for British justice.

It appears that what is "unacceptable" is Raed Salah's well-known opposition to Israel's illegal occupation of Jerusalem, destruction of Palestinian homes, violation of Islamic sanctities and ethnic cleansing of the city. Raed Salah is not alone in this regard. Every Palestinian abhors this. Indeed, apart from Israel, the perpetrator, only the US and a handful of European countries acquiesce in the face of these policies. What distinguishes Salah, however, is that he is most vocal in his opposition. The Israeli establishment views him, therefore, as an obstacle in the way of its illegality. Had he remained silent, his behaviour would have passed unnoticed and, no doubt, been judged "acceptable". This is what this case is all about.
More bizarrely, Renton and Lloyd ruled that Raed Salah dealt with "issues which are highly sensitive in the context of the Israeli/Palestinian dispute"; he spoke "in vivid terms alleging that it was the intention to destroy the Al Aqsa Mosque, again a particularly sensitive issue". The first point to recognise, which Home Secretary Theresa May fails to do, is that Jerusalem is occupied by the Israelis; the Zionist state of Israel has no right to the city. This is why the UN Security Council has called on Israel to desist from taking any measures to alter Jerusalem's status. And why no country worthy of the name has an embassy in Jerusalem; it is occupied territory.
What are the measures of concern to the Security Council? There is a whole catalogue of Israeli actions intended to change Jerusalem's demographic as well as its religious character. If the United Nations Security Council, no less, can condemn Israeli actions in Jerusalem why can't Raed Salah speak about them? Perhaps UN officials who describe the situation imposed by Israel on the Palestinians as apartheid, annexation and ethnic cleansing will be deported next time they visit the UK.
