“A seditious project:
Asa ’s book [‘Weaponising ’] shows how the facilitated the influence of a foreign government's interests in dictating who gets to lead the @UKLabour Party, causing the downfall of Jeremy

by Jonathan Coulter in @mondoweiss

This article is well worth a read because of the additional light it sheds on the complicity of British mainstream media is undermining democracy in the country they continually claim is a ‘bastion of democracy’! It also reinforces the extent to which, if any reinforcement is necessary, the ‘Lobby’ has managed to ‘insulate’ pretty much all the upper eschelons of British government from any anti-Israel/ Zionist leanings!

The article touches on the success of the Israeli government in ‘manufacturing’ & helping to resource a wide range of pro-Israel ‘astroturf’ civil society organisations as part of its strategy to counter the movement. A much fuller account of this activity is provided in author Hil ’s excellent recently published book: “Friends of Israel: The Backlash Against Palestine Solidarity” (Verso)

“Revealed: Charity Funded Campaign Against AntiSemitism”

via Rebekah Gordon-Nesbit & @asawinstanley on @substack

(originally published on @intifada Intifada)

“The Campaign Against Antisemitism () recently took credit for persuading UK trade union to cancel the Bristol launch of Asa ’s book ‘Weaponising Anti-Semitism’, alongside an associated screening of the film ‘Oh Jeremy Corbyn: The Big Lie’.

This was only the latest in a long series of attacks by the Israel lobby group [CAA] targeting the Palestine solidarity movement and the wider left [including boasting of ‘slaying’ then opposition Party @UKLabour leader Jeremy ]

But The Electronic Intifada can today reveal that the CAA has been given almost half a million dollars by the UK partner of the Jewish National Fund (JNF), Israel’s quasi-governmental settler-colonial agency.”

The execution of King Charles: ‘Let’s put all brutish tyrants down’. The king’s beheading in 1649 came at a time of social tumult. The power of the church and nobility was damaged and England became a republic for ten years. But radicals such as the Levellers, and communists such as Gerrard Winstanley and the Diggers, wanted to go much further peopleandnature.wordpress.com/ The picture is a detail from a contemporary engraving, showing the execution
