Richard Kemp is a retired British Army colonel who commanded forces in Afghanistan and has defended the IDF's conduct for years.
Hamas terrorist leaders praise the Burnham-Miliband Labour government for sanctioning Israel and falsely accusing it of “ethnic cleansing”. Iranian terrorist leaders joined in. This is how you encourage Jew hate and jihadist terrorists who want to attack both Israel & Britain. https://t.co/ICH5tkGl7h
Iran is trying to provoke Trump with their latest attacks against US forces. My interview with The Sun. https://t.co/15cEubYP5k
Ever since General Allenby captured Jerusalem from the Turks over 100 years ago Britain has had an official presence in the city. That now ends thanks to the British government’s diplomatic campaign against Israel, resulting in Israel closing down the British consulate in Jerusalem. By the way, Allenby’s WW1 campaign in the Holy Land included the Jewish Legion, (Jewish units of the British Army) and NILI, a Jewish intelligence organization which provided invaluable information to Allenby on Turkish forces.
The vultures are circling. Only the carrion is not Israel but the people of their own countries whom they are prepared to sacrifice for their own domestic electoral interests. https://t.co/jcUHbqCwjr
It’s obviously not true. But it’s the best way to incite Jew hate in the UK. Meanwhile never a word against the Palestinianists who have been intent on ethnically cleansing Jews from the river to the sea since 1948 and before and still are today. https://t.co/OYZevWLaEA
The UK Labour Government’s aggression against Israel is an act of sabotage against US and Western security, including our own, as I spelt out in this article yesterday. This should concern all British patriots whether Jewish or not. https://t.co/2DQ4GSGXJj
The Burnham-Miliband sanctions will have negligible economic effect on Israel. But they will incite even greater Jew hate and potentially violence by jihadists and their useful idiots in Britain. They will damage relations with the US causing potential economic harm to the UK. They are also deliberately intended to constitute electoral interference in Israel.
Yes but you fail to comprehend that the target is not Israel. As I spell out in this article: the West is the target, Israel the weapon and its strategic indispensability to America the motive.
Prime Minister Burnham’s planned attack on Israel will end up attacking the British economy & destroying British jobs at the worst possible time. Florida is poised to hit back & I expect other US states will follow.
UK Prime Minister Burnham (left) held a meeting to discuss security concerns over terrorism against Jews ahead of forthcoming Jewish holidays. Yet his government is on the verge of unjust diplomatic & economic action against Israel that will inflame Jew hate in the UK. https://t.co/7ek9zgQ7wL
Support for Zionism is an American patriotic duty (and for true allies of America). China and Russia have a political warfare campaign to undermine it. My article today in @JNS_org. https://t.co/2DQ4GSGXJj
He says Falklands are Argentinian, but maybe @YairNetanyahu would settle for a 2 state solution down there? How do we like those apples? We don’t. So how do you think Israelis feel when our govt tells them they should carve up their sovereign territory into a 2 state solution? https://t.co/WLZndbDpXp
The government is trying to play down the most successful cyber attack ever against British national infrastructure. Instead they should take decisive action against Iran. My article in today’s Daily Telegraph. https://t.co/XK5Hvt2UY3
There’s only 2 problems with that: (1) It applies to forced population transfer. (2) Judea & Samaria are not occupied territory. They have been Israeli sovereign territory since the end of the Mandate not withstanding the illegal Jordanian occupation. Same applies to Gaza.
Only by special international laws adapted for and applied to Israel alone.
China is funding pro-Hamas activity in the UK and US, including protests, including via NGOs. The purpose is 2-fold: (1) to sew division & destablise the West; (2) to undermine Israel which is a crucial bulwark against Chinese dominance in the Middle East.
Yes that’s exactly what the Palestinianist jihadists have been doing in Judea & Samaria for many years. One correction: they are backed by the Palestinian Authority which is not a state.
