Something unsavory is happening in Great Britain. Oona King, Labor MP for Bethnal Green, was pelted with onions and eggs by Muslim constituents Sunday when she participated in a memorial to Jewish victims of WWII's last German V2 missile attack on London. London's Mayor Ken Livingstone likened a Jewish journalist to a Nazi concentration camp guard, and on April 20 British university professors may decide to boycott Israeli academics. All the above are inextricably linked. All are products of unprecedented antagonism towards Jews and all things Israeli. The pretext is Israeli policy but that cannot, for instance, account for the atmosphere of hate towards Jewish students on British campuses. |
