When the official representative body for Muslim police officers in Britain describes Zionism as a form of anti-Muslim hatred and labels Israel’s IDF as a “Zionist terrorist group” you know that country has a serious problem on its hands.
Britain’s National Police Chiefs’ Council (NPCC) issued a statement on Friday condemning the paper linked to the National Association of Muslim Police (NAMP) but that is too little too late.
Assistant Chief Constable Jon McAdam said in a statement, “Let us be clear: There is no place for antisemitism in policing or in wider society. Policing in the UK exists to protect all communities. We will continue to uphold that duty with fairness, integrity and respect.”
But the problem is deep. In Britain the voices of anti-Muslim rhetoric is much louder and getting stronger than anti-Israel or even anti-Jewish voices of influence and, in many cases the influential anti-Muslim voices are the same voices that, even louder, voice anti-Israel anti-Semitic rhetoric.
That is the problem, not only in Britain.
This trend is the weather-gauge as to which direction Western countries are heading.
And that trend is not favorable neither for Israel and not for the local Jew.
In Britain, the Board of Deputies of British Jews denounced the paper as “disturbing,” saying it was riddled with falsehoods about Jewish identity, Jewish history, and the nature of antisemitism.
“If this is being circulated among officers, it poses a direct challenge to the integrity of policing and it should be withdrawn immediately,” their statement read.
No it doesn’t BOD. Instead it poses a direct threat to the British Jews you are there to protect rather than to Israel and Israelis who sadly see Britain sinking in dangerous and turbulent waters. Waters that are only going to get rougher and stormier as the number of Muslim cops and Muslim influence inevitably increases in Britain.
The West should pay heed to this warning.
It is time to say aloud that if the Moslems continue to revive Antisemitism across the West then they have no right to complain if the Jews of the West – doubtless starting with the young singles and all of younger working age – go on aliyah and make their lives in the State of Israel. There are still eight million Diaspora Jews (inc the million in Europe likely to move first) and even if only a million or two migrate these next ten or twenty years, if will thicken up the periphery, add quality to the economy and push ever further down the timeline any prospect of the return of Judea and Samaria to the Jordan successor of the Palestine Mandate – or any other Arab sovereignty.
Secondly if the killjoys and other religious fanatics in Iran or wherever, do throw an N-bomb at Israel then Israel has enough air power for the major dams and Holy Cities even without the alleged 80 to 200 “bombs in the basement”.
