NUTS & a Nice Pair (videos)

By Daphne Anson

‘A teacher is organising a special awareness and fundraising evening after returning from a harrowing trip to Palestine.  Julia Simpkins, secretary of the Bolton-branch of National Union of Teachers (NUT), travelled with a 12-strong delegation to the country to find out about the conditions the Palestinians are forced to endure.  She said: “The NUT takes a delegation twice a year to Palestine so we can see what is happening and raise awareness of the issues back home and get support for the people.”  …. Bolton Socialist Club is organising a Palestinian weekend at Bolton Socialist Club this week, starting Friday, with activities speakers and entertainment. Money raised will go towards helping Palestinian women go to university. On Sunday people will be embarking on a sponsored walk from Turton Tower at 10am.  Ms Simpkins said: “…. Israel does not want the Palestinian people there….”

The people who swallow Palestinian propaganda wholesale, and are probably likely to fall for this example in Bolton “‘cos a teacher told me so” might have benefited from a pair of simple videos such as these, from the Jerusalem Institute of Justice, had not Pallywood and its fans infected them first.

Meanwhile, here is another nice pair, an imam from Leicester and a vicar from London saying nice things to and about one another.

First, in an ad:

 And secondly, in an Al Jazeera live broadcast:

All very jolly and civilised.  Hard on the face of it to begrudge. There’s even a jocular reference to chicken soup.

But, it’s (well, both, actually, ad and video, that is) recommended by our old mate, and anything our old mate recommends should probably ring alarm bells in every Zionist noddle.

I have no idea whether the clergyman featured shares Sizer’s hostility towards Zionism, but speaking generally the trouble is that more and more and more Christians are allying with Muslims and tending to squeeze Jews (anti-Israel ones excepted) out of the equation.

That, of course, has a deleterious impact on the cause of Israel.

I guess it’s an instance of what is often referred to as “Chrislam”.

Perhaps the extraordinarily forthright critic of Sizerism Jacob Prasch would have a word for it.
