No, Neil Oliver Isn’t an Antisemite

by Andrew Barr
9 February 2023 2:00 PM

A few weeks ago, I wrote an article for the Daily Sceptic condemning the weaponisation of antisemitism against Andrew Bridgen MP. As is widely known, Bridgen has been conducting a campaign in Parliament to publicise the plight of people who have been injured by the COVID-19 vaccine. On the morning of January 11th he tweeted the observation of an (unnamed) consultant cardiologist that the COVID vaccine programme was “the biggest crime against humanity since the Holocaust”. By lunchtime, Bridgen had lost the Conservative whip. At Prime Minister’s Question Time, Matt Hancock, who as Health Secretary had been personally in charge of the vaccination campaign, asked a question about “disgusting, antisemitic, anti-vax conspiracy theories” which he claimed were “not only deeply offensive but anti-scientific”. Because he spoke in Parliament, Hancock’s comments were protected by parliamentary privilege. But Hancock also put his comments out in a tweet, which had no such protection. For having called him ‘antisemitic’, Bridgen is now suing Hancock for libel.

As I remarked at the time, the accusation of antisemitism against Bridgen was patently ludicrous. It was, I argued, part of a concerted campaign to weaponise antisemitism, to use it as a cudgel with which to beat anyone who spoke out against the Covid regime. The accusation felt like it was intended not simply to silence – or at least discredit – someone who was asking awkward questions about the vaccine programme, but also to send a message to any other MP who was thinking of following suit that he or she would also be smeared, and cast out as Bridgen had been. The accusations have not managed to silence Bridgen, but no other MP is speaking out publicly as he has done.

Now there has been another, similar attack, not this time by an MP on another MP, but by the Guardian on Neil Oliver. For the past year and a half, Oliver, previously best known as the presenter of television programmes on the history and archaeology of the British coastline, has been speaking out on GB News against state over-reach under the guise of protecting public health. Every now and then, an attempt has been made to smear Oliver with an accusation of antisemitism. For example, in August 2022 the Jewish Chronicle published an article claiming outrage among Jewish groups that Oliver had interviewed a ‘former Holocaust denier’ on his programme. In fact, the guest in question, Peter Imanuelson, denied that he had ever been a Holocaust denier; and he was not being interviewed about anything to do with the Holocaust, anyway. Oliver and Imanuelson were discussing whether the fall in birth rates in 2022 might be attributed to the Covid vaccine.

Now there has been a more high-profile attack on Oliver’s presence at GB News. This follows the recent resignation of Oliver’s colleague Mark Steyn. In a video on his website, Steyn said he had resigned because GB News presented him with a new contract which would have made him personally liable for any fine imposed by OfCom. Steyn is now broadcasting his show directly from his website. Some predicted that, following Steyn’s departure from GB News, Oliver might not be on GB News for much longer, although as far as we know OfCom isn’t investigating complaints against him.

Wednesday’s Guardian featured an article entitled, ‘Jewish groups and MPs urge GB News to stop indulging conspiracy theories.’ This stated that: “The UK’s leading Jewish organisation and a group of MPs have called on GB News and the media regulator OfCom to tackle the broadcaster’s indulgence of conspiracy theories, warning that some recent segments and guests risked spreading ideas linked to antisemitism.”

According to the Guardian, the Board of Deputies of British Jews and the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Antisemitism had decided to speak out following Oliver’s programme last Saturday night, in which he had referred in his opening monologue to a “silent war” and to plans to impose a one-world government. These, the Guardian claimed, constituted an antisemitic trope, related in some way to the Rothschild banking family. It did not appear to concern the Guardian that Oliver himself had said nothing about Jews or the Rothschilds.

The accusations against Oliver are so flimsy they’re hardly worth rebutting. I would not have written this article merely in order to counter them. The important point is that Oliver is not guilty of antisemitism. So why is the Guardian going after him? My suspicion is it senses weakness following Mark Steyn’s departure and wants to cause further trouble for GB News. Expect attacks on Laurence Fox or Dan Wootton next.

When Oliver referred to a “silent war” in his monologue on Saturday night, he was talking about the “silent war” that he believes the British parliament is waging against the British people. Oliver argued that the people can win this war by using the British constitution, according to which the people are sovereign, and not Parliament – despite its claim to be so.

In his brief discussion of the constitution, Oliver was preparing the ground for a guest who appeared later on his show, William Keyte, an expert on constitutional law. The Guardian article pays a lot of attention to Keyte, and tries hard to smear him by association, reporting that he has contributed articles to websites which also feature “conspiracy theorists” who have made allegations about the motives of the Israeli state and the Rothschild banking family. So, we should treat Oliver with suspicion because he interviewed a man who has contributed to a website that has published people who may, conceivably, be antisemitic conspiracy theorists. This is a form of offence archaeology of which the Byline Times is fond and was once memorably described as ‘six degrees of separation from Hitler’.

I would strongly recommend listening to what Keyte said on Oliver’s programme (from 27 minutes in). The Guardian article claims that Keyte has been talking about Common Law. That is a misrepresentation of his position. For the past three years there has been a great deal of talk within the freedom movement about the potential of Common Law, and a number of organisations have run courses to teach people about it. I have personally been dubious about using Common Law to fight back against the overmighty state, not because I don’t believe in Common Law, but because the police and the judiciary and government do not. They believe in the primacy of statute and case law, and they are the power in the land.

Constitutional law is a different matter. As Keyte said in another interview, “I have been trying to say for quite a long time to people who are awake to this, you really need to be arguing this from the position of constitutional law. Stop talking about Common Law, because that’s not going to do you any favours; you really need to hold the governments’ feet to the fire through the systems that we have… through the mechanisms they know they’re meant to be bound by.”

The Guardian’s attack on Keyte recalls an article it published in 2020 seeking to discredit Martin Kulldorff, one of the authors of the Great Barrington Declaration, which opposed lockdowns and argued instead for the ‘focussed protection’ of vulnerable people. The Guardian sought to smear Kulldorff by association, saying that he had appeared on the independent radio programme The Richie Allen Show, which had previously featured interviews not only with “conspiracy theorists” but also with Holocaust deniers.

What particularly concerns me about the Guardian’s attack on Oliver is that it has co-opted organisations that are supposed to represent Jewish interests. This is what always happens. A newspaper approaches organisations that purport to speak on behalf of the ‘Jewish community’, tells them that someone has been saying something antisemitic, and asks them for a comment. Naturally, they say that they deplore antisemitism, and that something should be done about it. And the newspaper has its story.

I’m sorry, but the more that Jewish organisations go on about antisemitism when there is very little there, the less likely the public are to pay attention when these same organisations flag up genuine instances of antisemitism. I can’t help thinking about the boy who cried ‘Wolf’.

These gene therapy jabs have been in the making for many years and were always destined to be used on every single human, regardless of age or health status. This is an excellent piece of journalism looking at the history, where these products stem from;

“Gates’s foundation took an equity stake in BioNTech ahead of its October 2019 US stock market launch. When he was asked in 2017 about the danger of these platform vaccines making people less well, he said: ‘You are right that the safety threshold is really, really extremely high because we have to maintain the reputations of all the vaccines, convince parents in all these countries that these shots are really there to help your child out. Anything that you do to healthy people is going to have a tougher standard than, say, a new cancer drug, where if you don’t have the new drug, the outcome is going to be quite negative.’
This tougher standard was soon forgotten. The Pfizer/BioNTech product was pushed into use by the UK Medicines and Healthcare Regulatory Authority (MHRA) on December 2, 2020 using a ‘compassionate use’ mechanism called a Temporary Use Authorisation to bypass the European regulator during the last month that the UK was under European Union law. MHRA reviewed only a few hundred pages of summary data, not the full dossier.”

Mogs, I’m going to be a pedant. These bioweapon injections aren’t a therapy – a therapy is a non-surgical intervention to treat a disease/disorder. They are gene modification injections. Calling them a therapy uses semantics to make them sound more benign.

Yes I know they aren’t a therapy in the traditional sense of the word, and what we all understand a ”therapy” to be, but I’m just using one of many terminologies that people use to refer to them. Even in the above linked article the author refers to them as such;

“The mRNA gene therapies contain no viruses”

So I just use quite a variety of names for them really, much like everybody else does. And if even Dr Robert Malone is referring to them as such then, in this context of the word, I can hardly be described as being incorrect;

“These and the adenoviral vectors are absolutely gene therapy technology…”

‘No, the real crime lay in extending vaccines to those who didn’t need them.’
True, and the majority of people make up this group, with a big majority of people within it who were not true believers but who were more or less softly coerced into having them.
They are now waking up and are the main target group for sceptics.
They could also become very, very angry very quickly, in contrast to the real cult members and priests.
But there are many other big crimes.
Chronologically:
Making the virus in the labs.
Letting it escape, accidentally or deliberately.
The PCR test scam.
The fear mongering and nudging, often with fake pictures and stories.
The lockdowns and related ones, including censorship and oppression of protests.
The sabotage of early treatment.
The reckless development and misclassification of the gene therapies.
The coercion into getting them, in particular of those who don’t need them and above all of the children!

My ranking would be:
If the virus was set free deliberately, that and it’s related production would be crime No1, and it would also most definitely be the biggest crime against humanity since the holocaust.

If not, I’d rank sabotage of treatment first, especially because of its ulterior motive, to get the EUAs for the GTs.
Arguably second would be the totally unnecessary injection of children, again especially so because of its ulterior and even heinous motive, to get liability protection for the officially approved versions instead of just for the EUA ones.
Let the prosecution begin.

Sorry, what exactly is there to debate?

Either the jabs are causing harm or they are not. And that can be established through investigation, not though debate.

Plenty of investigation has taken place to show they do cause harm. And plenty more should be carried out.

We don’t need a debate we need the facts to be made.public rather than suppressed.

Evidence? Models? Investigation?

Bah. Nah.

Lying is THE method of modern politics [and journalism] IMHO.

REASONS

Lying gets you elected more easily than truthfulness.

Lying trumps models.

Lying trumps evidence.

It eliminates the need for investigation.

It is quick.

It is efficient.

It costs very little.

The disadvantages are few – getting caught never matters.

How else did we all end up in Lock-downs?

Need some “science”? Make it up. No-one can tell the difference. And if they do, cancel them and cut off media access.

Its all very easy really.

And it will happen again and again – starting tomorrow if need be.

The whole thing works on the basis of “whilst you cannot fool all of the people all of the time, you can fool all of the people some of the time but most of the people all of the time – so those are the ones to concentrate on“.

It does not matter if 10% do not queue up meekly to get jabbed because the government caused such panic that it had 90% gagging to get stuck. And the 10% were shut up anyway.

And as Paul B points out, they don’t want to know and even if victims of the jabs, still don’t want to know it was the jabs.

Right, the bone of contention is how harmful? This is the pertinent question and what anyone in the $cientific field is refusing to investigate or even allow appropriate discourse. Malhotra’s bursting through was an anomaly not to be repeated I’d wager.

Surely the data, if analysed correctly is definitive but each are looking at it and deciding these warning signals, excess deaths and heart related issues are neither cause for concern or nothing to do with.. that thing (despite the obvious correlation in timing). They’re lying to us. We know they’re lying to us. They know we know that they’re lying to us. They know that we know that they’re knowingly lying, yet they’re still lying to us. Not sure what ultimately breaks the dam but mustn’t give up, keep at it folks – they’re obviously concerned over the fallout with this much lying.

This piece took a turn for the worse.

A way to get us out of lockdown? We never should have been in one!

Regardless, much like the general public I expect a producer had a name on a call sheet of a Dr who had previously been on to talk about statins/cardiology. The vast majority of the public have absolutely no idea what has gone on or don’t want to know.

The girl I know who can’t feel the outside of her leg shrugs when asked about it, the young mother who nearly died of a blood clot in the brain quickly changes the subject if I even hint at it.

It’s over, we lost, the “well the science has changed, we didn’t know at the time brigade” (liars and cheats the lot of them) have strung it out so long that the public consciousness has moved on.

“vaccination gave the elderly the confidence to emerge from behind their locked doors. We’d have been as well off giving everyone a saline shot rather than blowing billions on vaccines.”

No, we’d have been BETTER off giving everyone a saline shot, and even BETTER off giving nobody anything and telling the TRUTH about covid.

“It’s worth remembering that boosters haven’t been offered to the non-vulnerable under-50s for about 18 months, and since not even the manufacturers claim any ongoing efficacy for vaccines after about six months, then the only possible reason for not offering additional vaccine boosters to the under-50s is because it’s thought they’ll do more harm than good.”

It’s worth remembering that they are allowing these vaccines to be administered to CHILDREN knowing they do more harm than good, and that billions of young people got vaxxed so they could travel/work/not kill granny.

What the hell is going on with DS at the moment – seems to have turned into a vaccination apology site. Now’s the time to step up the pressure, not get all moderate and understanding.

I have yet to hear any kind of rationale put forth from the vax zealots ( and Offit, I’m looking at you! ) about why jabbing healthy kids ( zero risk of dying from Covid, per Prof Ioannidis ) was ever a thing. Anywhere.
Even at my age ( 40s ), with zero risk factors my IFR is virtually zilch. When people asked me why I didn’t get the jab I said because that’s what immune systems are for. If you have a functional immune system, which the vast majority of people do, then your efficacy is 100% with zero adverse side effects. So how the hell are TPTB psychopaths marketing a medical intervention and convincing individuals who aren’t at risk that their product can improve on 100% efficacy and zero adverse events? This is where the PsyOp proved absolutely essential because it’s just a complete nonsense what they’ve been purporting this whole time. And people are offering up their perfectly healthy, zero-risk babies and children for this toxic crud, based on a blatant lie?! I’m just incredulous at the utter gullibility and intense stupidity of the morons who unfortunately make up a significant portion of the public. 🙁

And speaking of morons, it would be remiss of me not to give an example of one such person. It would appear there is clearly no correlation between how intelligent one may be in a given area and how completely thick they are in another, but this is the reality of what we’re dealing with, as Dr Jen illustrates;

Even at my age ( 40s ), with zero risk factors my IFR is virtually zilch.

IFR is an inherently problematic/ scammy metric: The number of infections is never really known, hence the infection fatality rate can only ever be estimated. It’s also not really a rate. It’s calculated by dividing an estimate of the number of deaths because of a disease (for COVID, a grossly nonsensical estimate as the actual cause of death of most so-called COVID dead is unknown) by an estimate of the number of infections. Both quantities are historical information. Using an example, let’s assume 2 out of a group of 50 infected died during some period of time in the past. This means the corresponding number would be 0.04 (or 4%). But this communicates that 4% of the people who belonged to this group of infected at that time succumbed to the disease for some unknown reason. It does not mean that 4% of the next group of 50 infected people will also succumb to the disease, ie, will also be vulnerable to this for an unknown reason.

This becomes especially true when this is associated with ages. Viruses can’t read numbers and know nothing about someone’s age. x% of the group of 40-year olds at time … where vulnerable to COVID and thus died doesn’t mean x% of all 40 year olds will be vulnerable to COVID and will thus die.

As soon as TBTB agree to discuss vax injuries, then it is the brick that will cause the dam to fail. First Vax injuries, then vaxes, then the source of the virus, then the whole rest of the sorry tale. You pull one rat out of the hole and the rest of the rats come with it. They will fight it like fury, but eventually the drip, drip of truth will have to be reckoned with.

I am very sorry to hear of the author’s sister in law, but by using the phrase ‘she wanted to go on holiday’ he is wiping out months and months of political and societal pressure to get the vaccine. I well remember walking past headlines suggesting the unvaccinated should be in prison/banned from indoor events/banned from NHS treatment etc etc. My own mother said we couldn’t visit her as we hadn’t been vaccinated. A fellow dog walker suggested the unvaccinated should all be shot (!!)

We mustn’t render that unacceptable and inhumane pressure invisible.

Some say that the public have moved on and or simply want to forget about covid and the jabs.
That would be the case if the damage from the jabs was over. But it’s not, CVS problems are only the start.

The average sheep may want to move on – which is easy to do when nobody near and dear to you dies “unexpectedly”, or has a stroke or other serious illness.
But the problem for them is that it will only be a matter of time before someone close to them does suffer, and then they too may well ask questions.

That’s doing the BBC an injustice if the implication is they are not also obsessively focused on the other Woke causes, on stories of murder and rape allegations and on whitewashing the vaccines. It’s about as unsavoury as the Tavistock.

It depends on whether there is any tissue samples which haven’t been subjected to any reagents which can be analysed for any further tests. Otherwise all that can be done is an assessment of the post mortem report.

There’s so much that could be said here, but I’ll stick with the one I think is the most important: it goes without saying that what Malhotra has done to raise awareness is powerful stuff. However, if he’d done his f*in job in the first place we’d not be where we are now. Listen to the recent Malhotra Weinstein podcast. Malhotra asserts that if you (us) initially made the decision to not have the vaccine that you were ‘irrational’. He claims this on the basis that there was no good evidence at the time that should stop you from being injected. Injected with an experimental product with virtually no safety data, against a virus that only a few were vulnerable to. He is basically saying that you should jump off a ledge as long as someone has told you the drop is not to far; don’t look yourself, just trust others to look for you. Trust government, trust ‘experts’, trust the BBC. Trust authority. This is why I think this is the most important point: these people are the same people that were complicit in the whole debacle. And although their coats may change, they most certainly do not.

The most important thing is that Aseem Malhotra is doing everything he can to get the experimental vaccines stopped and to publicise their harms. He’s taking great personal risks in doing this and getting the information out there, and there wouldn’t be many capable of standing up to the challenge of doing this. And he’s stood up against big pharma before in relation to statins, again at huge risk to himself.

Of course he got it wrong initially and of course we are thinking how could he not have seen it at the beginning, but that’s not the most important point.

I have nothing but admiration for Aseem Malhotra.

100%. If people only look retrospectively and dwell on why soandso didn’t see what was happening in the early days then it doesn’t really serve us now. In my opinion it’s the present and the future which are most important and the more high profile people with influence we have on our side the better. Andrew Bridgen was another one who was wholly supportive of the jabs at the beginning but personally I am OK with allowing people to wake up and ‘red-pill’ at their own pace, just so long as they do. We need more Malhotras and Bridgens in the public eye, especially if they were fully on board with the narrative to begin with. It shows people that, yes, you too can change stance because once we were like you. People need to be shown that it’s OK to admit you were duped, get over it then fight on the right side hence forth.

Fancy taking any notice of a Consultant Cardiologist when our own Matt Hancock says that the vaccine is safe.

An interesting take that giving the jabs to the whole population gave old people the confidence to go out.
Thank goodness they stopped you getting it and passing it on and, above all, were know not to be harmful!

vaccination gave the elderly the confidence to emerge from behind their locked doors.

Insofar the elderly where hiding behind locked doors, this was because of the relentless government COVID terror campaign. The reality is – as all mainly respiratory diseases – pneumonia is a rare complication of COVID and in rare cases (the NHS recommends rest and drink lots of fluids against pneumonia), this may lead to hospitalization and in even rarer cases, may prove to be beyond treatment and thus, lead to death, especially of people who are already at death’s door. Nobody ever needed a vaccine against that, especially not a vaccine which doesn’t work.

What should have been done was to recommend appropriate levels of vitamin D as a prophylactic, with the faster-acting vitamin D metabolites calcifediol or calcitriol for use in hospitalised patients. That alone would have got rid of 90%+ of the deaths, it would have been bye bye pandemic. Safe and very effective. Despite the very high effect sizes that were seen in trials, NICE always wanted better trials, which was utterly unethical.

Yep. You might have noticed that there is plenty of high strength Vitamin D on sale in the well known supermarkets. I’m one of the customers for it, and have been over the last couple of years.

“TV production companies lining up a debate somewhere and just looking for a TV broadcaster to commission it”. Perhaps those who are interested in it will have a chat with GBN; you never know, it could increase their revenue from advertisers, beyond those selling cremation services, equity release etc!

It is unfortunate that many of the presenters and panelists on GB News seem to be in complete denial and ignorance of the severe harms that people have suffered. They think that the jabs have worked because they haven’t been affected. Well, I have kept clear of the jabs and, at the age of 76, am absolutely fine having never caught the Covid. Work that one out!

Some of them are, but not all – e,g. Mark Steyn. Part of the problem is that they are watching their backs against Ofcom, although it’s quite hilarious as to how Fox reads out the script to comply with it all on his show!

“We call it a Covax death” – I don’t know what’s more scary – that it happens, or that it happens so often that we have a name for it.

Actually, it’s neither – it’s that no-one wants to talk about it.

“It seems incredible that the BBC and, by association, the Government, think they can just bury the story”.

Umm… I seem to remember going on various marches (re Lockdown, mandatory vaccines and vaccine passports etc and still do) over the last 2/3 years don’t remember anything being reported by the BBC (or indeed any MSM). They’ve buried quite a lot over this scamdemic so I for one don’t find it incredible at all. They are dishonest scumbags. Period.

OFCOM will not permit a free and fair debate. There are too many powerful people who require protection. “Our” MPs, with one or two exceptions, are adopting the position of the Three Monkeys.

In my “suspicious corner” are:

Three (admittedly elderly) people living in my Close who all had strokes post their first and second jabs. One died after the second jab, the other two are in a bad way.

Another younger person in the Close who developed vision problems after the second jab, which the medics don’t seem to be able to do anything about. She has noticeably aged.

A middle-aged work colleague who got a pulmonary embolism shortly after her 2nd jab. She’s recently been hospitalised for 10 days with pneumonia, post 4th jab and the ‘flu jab.

Three acquaintances who have developed aggressive, terminal cancers, in the past 18 months, post jabs. One has already died.

A friend’s husband, late 50s, very slim and fit, who has now had two serious heart attacks, post 2 x AZ and 1 Pfizer jab.
