Pro-Palestinian demonstrators targeted Jewish families leaving a London synagogue after the Armistice Day march, with footage showing protesters waving flags and spraying green smoke on Abbey Road in St John’s Wood, North-West London. The Telegraph has the story.
A Jewish campaign group later confirmed it had received “multiple reports” of police having to escort congregants from another London synagogue away in groups “for their own safety”.
The disturbing footage came as antisemitic signs and hateful chants were filmed and photographed in the demonstration.
While many marched in peace, police confirmed they were looking for several individuals after footage and photos of the London march were shared on social media.
Offensive signs included a placard comparing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Adolf Hitler and Gaza to Auschwitz.
Another placard showed a snake in the colours of the Israeli flag wrapped around the globe – a shocking evocation of an antisemitic conspiracy theory about Jewish control.
Hamas-style headbands were also worn by some protesters. Many demonstrators chanted “From the River to the Sea”. The controversial phrase has been used by Palestinian nationalists and terror groups to assert territorial claims of an independent Palestinian state.
In one particularly disturbing clip, male demonstrators were seen shouting “Khayber Khayber ya yaud jadish al Mohammed sauf yaud” through a megaphone.
The antisemitic chant, which references a seventh-century battle in which Jewish people were massacred by a Muslim army, translates as: “Khaybar Khaybar, O Jews, Muhammad’s army will return.” …
Organisers of Saturday’s march had insisted it would be peaceful.
But on Saturday night, a spokesperson for Campaign Against Antisemitism said: “Naturally, the Jewish community is terrified.
“We are aware of Jewish families being targeted on their way out of synagogue and have received multiple reports of police having to escort congregants away in groups for their own safety.”
They added: “The placards today bore slogans and imagery that would not have looked out of place in Nazi Germany.
“Islamist extremists, the far-Left and the far-Right were out on the streets, all on one day. What a day to be a Jew in London.”
Jess Phillips posted on X, “Hate march you say…”.
Indeed, much of the media had a different take, reporting that the protesters had “marched peacefully through Central London on Saturday, even as Right-wing counter-protesters clashed with police”.
The emphasis on the activities of the far-Right is reflected in the Metropolitan Police’s arrest statistics, indicating that “some 126 people were arrested throughout the day, with at least 92 of them being counter-protesters”.
However, footage circulating on social media tells a different story, portraying instances of violence perpetrated by pro-Palestinian demonstrators. Elsewhere, Michael Gove had to be escorted out of Victoria station and placed in a police van after being surrounded by pro-Palestinian protesters chanting, “Shame on you.”
Stop Press: An anonymous police officer writing in the Mail on Sunday has said Suella Braverman is right – the police do treat some protest groups with a light touch and come down on others like a ton of bricks. Worth reading.

‘…police having to escort congregants from another London synagogue away in groups’
A great pity that there is not more support for the Police on here.
They have done a great job. Well done to them and many thanks.
It’s because people remember what they did during the BLM demonstrations and the anti lockdown protests. And what they continue to do with the Just stop oil and LGBTQALPHABETSOUP demonstrations. They will not be forgiven for their two tiered policing.
Further legislation is not required. The police have The Public Order Act which is more than sufficient particularly as coppers have become extremely adept of late at interpreting the law to suit their requirements. If specific groups of people are being targeted by thugs that is a criminal matter and for which no further legislation is even remotely required.
?
I don’t understand what you don’t understand.
” You’re wrong” masquerading as faux puzzlement
Well I would rather wait; as said, they target the “far right” (traditional people) and many have said how they thought the Police were agent provocateurs during the Lockdown protests. If they didn’t kettle you, engage conversation in order to throw you in a van, or attack you listening to music in a park, you were doing well!
Sorry, “round fleshy objects, partially hirsute”; if Met Plod can invoke the likelihood of a public order offence happening to “move on” a peaceful, placard carrying, counter protest as a pro Palestinian, pro Hamas person assaults the peaceful protester, and is not arrested for that offence, did they arrest any of the Palestinian terrorist supporting disturbers of the peace in the vicinity of the Synagogues? Would you support a similar action being allowed by Met Plod outside a mosque?
“A great job” is the polar opposite of what is happening in this country – speak to any Jewish people, Hunts, Shooting and Fishing “fraternity”, devout free speech Christians, parents very fed up with how they are being excluded from deciding how their children are brought up…..Support as you state – and respect – can be requested always BUT is only ever earned and if you don’t know that, “you do now”
Rest assured, large public congregations of muslims would have looked very much out of place anywhere in Nazi Germany and – for that matter – anywhere else in Germany until at least the early 1970s. Nowadays, they obviously exist, Palestinian flag waving and all, shouting slogans like Israel bombardiert, Deutschland finanziert! (Israel bombs and Germany funds this!) or Die deutsche Regierung hat Blut an ihren Händen! (The German government has blood on its hands!). Totally unamusingly, the repeat-covaxxers then try to sell the unwavering support of the German government and the overwhelming majority of German people for their cause these import-arabs protest against as German antisemitism in the angloshpere.
The “far right were on the streets”? From the videos I saw, there were a few altercations between the police and the group at the cenotaph but certainly not an organised riot. Of course, it would be easy for the police to engineer a few extra arrests of these people to fit their political objective of whitewashing the pro-terror marches and demonising everyone else. According to one media outlet, Tommy Robinson led a far-right group to cause trouble. In fact, Tommy Robinson shadowed YouTube blogger Mahyar Tousi the entire time. The video shows he wasn’t leading anything and just mingled with the rest of the crowd, proving the msm were lying about him. The term “far-right” is nothing more than a political slur used by certain people and has nothing to do with any objectivecreality.
Absolutely spot on.
The apologists for the violence of some Palestinian protesters are simply storing trouble. The West is facing nigh on a frontal attack by the islamists and it has to be faced down and by force if necessary. Pussy footing around what has become a major problem in society will make the issue worse. Head in sand is not an option.
The Telegraph article chose to use a single photo of man-with-flare rather than the “disturbing footage” with no link provided which had “circulated on social media” instead conflating the reported altercation with the main demonstration. This does not lend credibility to their report.
From the river to the sea etc etc, if ppl cannot see what is happening and want to think jumping on the “underdog” Palestinian “cause” they are beyond help. In places like Bradford these will eventually go the way of Kosovo avd be carved out of England.

Met Commissioner: nothing to report, Home Secretary. By the way where is my big pension and pay-off?
Five days gone by and still not a peep. However I’m fully confident that the ‘useful idiots’ and keyboard warriors are busy planning a demo ( with max righteous outrage ) to show compassion and humanity for the approx 800 Christians murdered by Jihadi psychopaths in Sudan. But I suppose, much like with Yemen, there’s no Jew involvement, so carry on with your myopic, hypocritical and antisemitic focus on Israel being everybody’s ‘bad guy’. Selective self-righteousness at its finest..
”Reports are emerging from Sudan of the mass murder of African Christians by Islamic Jihadis.
Governmental aid agencies and non-profits have shared social media videos from the jihadi accounts showing residents of Darfur being rounded up and later, video of dozens of bodies strewn across the area. African media reports that the death count has risen to 773 with Christians making up a bulk of the dead.
The Janjaweed terrorist group is allied with a network of militias in the Middle East and North Africa, which includes Hamas and Hezbollah. Social media accounts on Tuesday are urging the West to respond as all eyes are on the Hamas attack on Israel and resulting war.”

The question is: why did Yemen receive negligible MSM coverage when it should have been highlighting the UK involvement in creating what was labelled the “worlds worst humanitarian crisis” yet Ukraine and now the Israel-Hamas conflict receives saturation coverage?
It’s just the narrative we are supposed to follow at that point in time because those in a position to control MSM have promoted them. Why these are considered the important narratives is a separate question.
And not to forget the driving out of 120,000 Armenian Christians from Ngorno Karabahk, where they lived for centuries before “the Prophet” spawn of the Devil showed up. No doubt the bulldozers are at it even now.
But I suppose that if even the brain dead admirers of the islamofascist death cult are crying “shame” on Michael Gove, they’ve got just one thing I can agree with.
“An anonymous police officer writing in the Mail on Sunday has said Suella Braverman is right – the police do treat some protest groups with a light touch and come down on others like a ton of bricks”…….No shi* Mr Sherlock Holmes!
