Carole Swords of “Respect”: “Go back to Russia!”

What would you make of someone shouting “go back to Africa!” at a British black man? A nasty racist, right?

How is what Carole Swords, chair of Tower Hamlets “Respect”, did here any different? This clip is from a demonstration at Ahava, the Israeli cosmetics store in Covent Garden that has been repeatedly targeted by a foul band of Israel haters.

This really isn’t surprising. Carole Swords likes to call “Zionists” “cockroaches”.

Here she reproduces an article by the deranged and disgusting antisemite Stuart Littlewood (the man RePress TV likes too).

The article includes this utterly vile abuse of memory:

Last November, while Israel was meticulously planning its blitzkrieg against Gaza’s civilians (including the Christian community) and their democratically elected government, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, joined the Chief Rabbi, Sir Jonathan Sacks, in a visit to the former Nazi camps of Auschwitz-Birkenau in Poland to demonstrate their joint solidarity against the extremes of hostility and genocide.

“This is a pilgrimage not to a holy place but to a place of utter profanity – a place where the name of God was profaned because the image of God in human beings was abused and disfigured,” said the Archbishop. “How shall we be able to read the signs of the times, the indications that evil is gathering force once again and societies are slipping towards the same collective corruption and moral sickness that made the Shoah possible?”

The signs are there to plainly see, Dr Williams. Evil has indeed gathered its forces again and, as you surely noticed, certain societies have already slipped into the moral cesspit. Look no further than the hell-hole that the Holy Land has been turned into by the Israeli occupation.

So who does Swords like just as much as she hates “Zionists”? Hamas. Here she gazes lovingly at Ismail Haniyeh and Mahmoud Al-Zahar of Hamas on one of the Viva Palestina support missions for the terrorist group.

Zahar is one of the worst men in Hamas. He thinks the Nazis and other extremely violent European antisemites had some good ideas:

Senior leader of the Islamic Resistance Movement “Hamas” Dr-Mahmoud Al-Zahar says Jews were kicked out by France, Britain, Russia and Germany “because they betrayed, stole and corrupted these countries.”

The Jews will soon be expelled from Palestine that same way they were kicked out by France, Britain, Belgium, Russia and Germany, Hamas leader Mahmoud Al-Zahar said over the weekend.

“The only nation that received the Jews after they were expelled was the Islamic nation, which protected them and looked after them,” Zahar said in a speech in Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip over the weekend.

“But they have no place here amongst us because of their crimes. They will soon be expelled from here and we will pray at the Aqsa Mosque [in Jerusalem].”

In fact, why not just murder Jewish children all over the world?

Fighting intensified on the northern outskirts of Gaza City yesterday as a Hamas leader warned that the Islamists would kill Jewish children anywhere in the world in revenge for Israel’s devastating assault.

“They have legitimised the murder of their own children by killing the children of Palestine,” Mahmoud Zahar said in a televised broadcast recorded at a secret location. “They have legitimised the killing of their people all over the world by killing our people.”

With “go back to Russia!” capping such an atrocious record, I am sure Carole Swords will now be expelled from the “Respect” party.

Right?
