The more children Israel kills, the more unpopular it becomes. The more unpopular Israel becomes, the more violently we are throat-fucked with the narrative that "antisemitism" is a major problem in our society. The UK's Department for Education has released a 107-page review which asserts that much more needs to be done to protect Jewish students in England from discrimination. Which in and of itself sounds reasonable, until you look at the actual document. The review, led by Sir David Bell, mentions the word "political" or "geopolitical" no fewer than 125 times. It mentions the word "Israel" or "Israeli" 60 times and the word "Palestine" or "Palestinian" 35 times. So, as always, it is clear that this isn't actually about protecting a religious minority from persecution. The Bell review lists 27 recommendations for dealing with "antisemitism" in English schools, which the government has reportedly accepted in their entirety. The first recommendation is adopting the hotly disputed International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism which lists common criticisms of the state of Israel as hateful toward Jews. Under the IHRA definition, you are guilty of antisemitism if you compare the modern state of Israel to Nazi Germany, or if you say that Israel exists as a racist endeavor. This framing effectively brands anyone a hateful bigot who agrees with the unanimous consensus of international human rights groups that Israel is a genocidal apartheid state. "Anti-Israel attitudes have distinctly increased over time," the review says. "In 2020, 23% agreed with the statement 'Israel treats the Palestinians like the Nazis treated the Jews', which increased to 45% in 2025. The prevalence of beliefs such as these, which could be regarded as antisemitic according to the IHRA definition, demonstrate the difficulty faced by schools and colleges in tackling antisemitism." Under the section titled "Political expression and pupil wellbeing in schools," the review scorned the use of "political identifiers" in schools such as "badges, flags, or other political symbols and slogans such as ‘Free Palestine’, including staff displaying Palestinian flags in their classrooms without relevance to the lesson." "It is the view of this review that political identifiers do not have a place in our schools," the report reads, while stopping short of saying such expression should be banned in all instances. "Political expression by staff can create a learning environment in which some learners feel distressed, excluded, or unable to engage fully with their education," the review asserts. "In such circumstances, colleges may be justified in placing proportionate restrictions on lawful political expression where this is necessary to ensure learners' education and fulfil the college’s wider duties." "In practice, antisemitism is frequently intertwined with political views about a nation state or political ideology. This means that challenging antisemitism often requires teachers to address or correct political claims or misinformation, which can appear to conflict with impartiality duties," the review says. This uncritical assertion that "antisemitism is frequently intertwined with political views about a nation state or political ideology" tells you everything you need to know about what this review is really designed to accomplish. This is about stomping out political speech that is critical of Israel, and nothing else. The review of course also attempts to conflate antizionism with antisemitism, saying, "Antizionists can express views that include a deep hatred for the existence of Israel and of those who believe in its right to exist as a Jewish homeland. Such views may be antisemitic, in certain contexts. There are also examples where Zionism is used as a synonym for ‘Jewish’ to hide antiJewish hatred within lawful political expression." I am so fucking sick of this shit. People who live in Israel's western allied states are getting bludgeoned and bludgeoned and bludgeoned by these ham-fisted psychological operations by state and non-state actors with more and more aggression the more Israel's popularity rating goes down the tubes, and it's not even working. The way these freaks keep trying to stick their rapey fingers into our minds and manipulate the thoughts we think about a genocidal apartheid state is fucking disgusting. It's only making everyone hate Israel more.
