Antisemitism increases in UK following Hamas attacks on Israel
The UK Jewish News reports on something sadly not unexpected:
There has been a 250 percent increase in antisemitic incidents reported since the start of the recent confrontations between Israel and the Palestinians.No surprise the UK police don't seem to have an issue with stuff like this happening either. This has been going on in the UK for a long time.
Altercations outside shuls, verbal abuse directed at Jewish people on the street and hateful social media posts, are among the reported incidents since the start of the violence last week.
The Community Security Trust said there has been a sharp spike in hatred calling it “depressingly familiar and completely inexcusable”.
The charity, which is responsible for securing communal institutions like shuls and schools, said from 8-12 May, it recorded 25 incidents, compared to seven in the five days prior to the escalation, an increase of 250 percent.
It said incidents included a verbal altercation outside a synagogue directly referring to events in Israel, cars driving through Jewish areas of London and Manchester with occupants shouting abuse related to the situation at Jewish people on the street, and a swatch of antisemitic content on social media.
CST also highlighted a number of individuals at London’s Tuesday protest, comparing Israel to Nazism, including one standing on the top of a police car.
