antisemitism

MEND and Lauren Booth

If you want to be known without doubt as a group that is keen on antisemites, especially when you already have your own record in this foul field, one of the very best bets is to invite Lauren Booth to speak at one of your events.

This is what the Islamist agitation outfit MEND will do next month. She’s billed alongside failed Tory Baroness Warsi and Labour MP Naz Shah, by the way.

This is one of my favourite deranged Booth moments:

And what of the PSC’s rather too cosy relationship with the Zionist blog Harry’s Place?

I don’t think it would be, er, quite fair to characterise this blog’s “relationship” with the self-styled Palestine Solidarity Campaign as “cosy”. But when praise of the notorious antisemite and Holocaust denier Gilad Atzmon is the cause, Booth rises furiously to the occasion.

Booth has also been a big fan of another old friend of this blog, hate publisher Sameh “Organ Theft” Habeeb.

Mahathir “Jews control the world” Mohamad, meanwhile, is “a thoughtful, pious and philosophical man”, says Booth. He “has neither the personality nor the inclination to be an anti-Semite.”

Even better for MEND, Booth thinks Hamas is simply glorious. Here she is at the annual Khomeinist “Quds Day” Israel hatred march in London.

I’ll tell you now, the Israelis will never have a good moment’s sleep in their beds. May they never have a second to taste the sweetness of tranquillity so long as one Palestinian child rots in their prison or one child dies under their bombs.

I want to remind everybody here who Hamas is. They are the elected government that the Gaza people elected. And they have a right to resist under occupation. This is a right under international law. And I say “we back your resistance”. You resist! Do not stay in your homes and die under those bombs. For we are not cowards, we are Muslims. And you will not kill us anymore without feeling the vengeance of the people you oppress.

Maybe MEND could give Booth a little Hamas Qassam rocket model as a token of its appreciation for her assistance.
