Yet another attack. It should be clear to everyone. When it comes to the Jews - the Guardian consistently sides with the antisemites.
It is almost impossible to overstate how far the Guardian has fallen. Once the voice of the liberal left – the paper has turned into a ‘Palestine’ obsessed rag that consistently promotes voices that are attacking British Jews. Just this week we were given yet another example – Haroon Siddique wrote an article about a report attacking the use of the IHRA definition of antisemitism on campus grounds.
Two organisations are behind the report – ‘BRISMES’ and ‘ELSC ‘ (I will deal with both later in this piece) and at no point does Siddique mention the fact that these anti-Israel organisations – and many of the names attached to them – have spent the last few years promoting and defending antisemites.
Why give their rancid report legitimacy? It is so blatant in its flawed methodology that none of the other mainstream outlets appear to have gone anywhere near it. It was promoted in Middle East Eye – a Qatari state mouthpiece. Also in Mondoweiss, a US based anti-Zionist conspiracy rag. As it stands – these are the Guardian’s ideological bedfellows.
Haroon Siddique
The Journalist, Haroon Siddique is a habitual offender. Just a few months ago, in a post attacking the government’s anti-BDS bill, he tried to pass off a bunch of extremists, antisemites and Muslim Brotherhood figures as UK ‘civil society’. He has also consistently attacked the Government’s counter-extremism policy ‘PREVENT’.
I searched his Twitter account for use of the word ‘antisemitism’. I found ten tweets:
Report attacking the IHRA definition of antisemitism.
Dropping of lawsuit against Labour over antisemitism.
To attack EHRC commissioner, who led Labour party antisemitism inquiry.
Ditto..
Ditto.
Support for JVL’s Diana Neslen – against the IHRA and in support of anti-Zionist belief.
Ditto.
On Telegraph apology for false description of Laura Murray as ‘anti-Jewish racist’.
On Charity Commission opening case against the CAA (Campaign against Antisemitism).
On Toby Young apologising to Philip Hammond over accusation of antisemitism.
That’s it – all ten. A one-way narrative. On the Guardian website I also found these articles – all authored by Siddique:
Council worker sacked for comments about Zionism wins back job
Tracy-Ann Oberman pays ‘substantial damages’ for antisemitism claims
New NUS president accuses media of printing falsehoods
