media having a go at the jews again

It remains to be seen who that scout was.

PS Aren't giant lizards mostly Jewish or is the other way round?

One of Many

I saw a part of the Dispatches programme - one of the points it was making was that if you criticize Israel you are branded an anti-Semite - sometimes even labelling Jewish people anti-Semites.

Currently aren't they just one of many groups currently being over-sensitive?

• If you discuss extremist Islamic policies you are branded anti-Muslim.
• If you mention the fact that black commit a disproportionally high number of street crimes then you are labelled racist.
• In America if you discuss the separation of church and state the fundamentalist Christian groups attack you as being anti-Christian.

At this rate I can imagine a day when the only subjects you can safely discuss is cookery and home decoration - even then you risk being beaten up by Delia and the LLewyllin-Bowen freak.

People need to lighten up.

This should raise concerns as the Jewish lobby aggressively lobby politicians in order to influence British policy in favour of Israel.

USA has got much stronger influence, I'd be worried about it in the first place - Israel did not get UK into Iraq war.

Big deal. In Canada it was pretty normal for the Zionist lobby to complain about the media. its now got to the point that there is very little criticisim of Israel in Canada. And you're very brave if you do.

If the Russians or the Chinese were giving donations to some of our politicians, would that be different?

It's not because they're Jewish, it's because it's a foreign nation who appear to be buying influence at the highest levels of our government. I'm not really ok with that, at all.

In fact no MP should be taking money from any foreign national interest group. IMO tha's a straight up conflict of interest.

Also saw that, and thought it was interesting how they formed the organisation such that they didn't have to declare how much, or to whom they were giving money ...

The USA is a much friendlier country to the Jews. The president even gives a Jewish New Year address on TV.

The UK media and establishment is very biased towards Muslim groups, probably because of investment from the Saudis.

Looking at immigration and the birth rate amongst Muslim groups, we are heading towards becoming a Muslim country in the next 10 years anyway. Not sure I would want to live here when that happens and be woken to prayer call every morning at 6 am.

Careful you lot you'll all be labelled anti-semitic if you even suggest that a Jewish lobby exists or that it's rather more powerful than other, shall we say, ethnic lobbies.
Personally I would never suggest such a thing.
