BBC TV Chief 'Deeply Troubled' by UK Anti-Semitism
inn ^ | 12/23/14 | Elad Benari

Posted on 12/23/2014 4:50:56 PM PST by Nachum

Danny Cohen, the BBC’s director of television, said this week that he was deeply troubled by the anti-Semitism in Europe in general, and in Britain in particular.

Speaking at a conference in Jerusalem, where he was interviewed by Channel 2 News anchor Yonit Levi, Cohen said, “I’ve never felt so uncomfortable being a Jew in the UK as I’ve felt in the last 12 months. And it’s made me think about, you know, is it our long-term home, actually.”

First step in eliminating anti_semitism: remove the Muslims from the British Isles.

By force if necessary

MAYBE??!?!!? The white folks in Rothenham covered up the gang-rapes of 1400 underage white girls to avoid distressing the Muslim perpetrators. There’s no “maybe” about it.

The BBC is probably the leader of the anti-semitic movement

They’ve had a history of killing and expelling their Jews, also enabling the Nazi murder of many more Jews by actually blockading the coast of Israel to prevent Jewish refugees from the Nazi death machine from landing there.

of course, all that is in the past.

right?

meanwhile, the leaders in UK keep importing IslamoNazis.
the end of Great Britain is thus in sight, via this suicidal sellout by the leadership elite

(USA is only a few years behind Europe/UK in this suicide mission...America being such a big country it takes awhile longer to bring enough IslamoNazis in to turn it into a Satranic cesspool.....like their home countries....but with the apparently accelerated intake of Islamics these past 5 or 6 years......USA will catch up quickly on this road to Hell)

They have also welcomed Jews to their shores - from the medieval period onto modern history. It’s not all negative.

as long as the UK govt rejects and punishes criticism of islam anti-semitism will be empowered.

also the BBC has promoted islamist supremists so why is the BBC chief so deeply troubled? Does he not watch the BBC???

Re: "The BBC"

Reuters - another UK based news provider - is the co-leader on anti-Semitism.

And, AFP - a Paris based news provider, which is a quasi-agency of the French government - makes it a three way, photo finish, dead heat for first place.

Quite remarkable that the Jewish BBC executive would publicly declare in Israel that he no longer feels at home in the UK.

Even more remarkable, American and Canadian Conservatives are the only major political parties in the world that support Israel and the Jews, but at least 75% of European Jews still despise us.

it is definitely not all negative, not by a long shot.
i was only reacting to the bad news article, is all.

we here happen to view the islamonazi invasion (mass immigration being allowed into) Europe as a pivotal point in history

and definitely not a good one....

Israel was meant to be a refuge for Jewish people around the world who felt ‘’deeply troubled’’ by growing anti-Semitism in their own countries.

However, Israel is no longer a refuge for Jews; instead, it’s become more like a killing ground where Jews are freely attacked by Hamas rockets, murdered by Palestinian radicals, and wait in fear of Iran dropping nuclear weapons on them — all because Israel’s current leadership is too weak to fight back and destroy Israel’s enemies.

In Nazi Germany during the 1930s, Jews lived in fear of having their shops and synagogues destroyed by Nazi radicals, but they were too disorganized to fight back, and then the Holocaust came.

Now, in 2014, the Jews of Israel live in fear of being hit by terrorist rockets, their rabbis murdered in synagogues, their children kidnapped and murdered by evil fanatics... and it’s like old times again. But not because the Jews of Israel are disorganized; they have a mighty military perfectly capable of fighting back and eliminating those who want to destroy them...but their leaders won’t act.

In a few months the people of Israel will have a chance to choose a new, stronger prime minister. But will they?

Here is a link worth perusing in the Interworld:

Flipside of the BBC; once upon a time, they were probably the premiere broadcasting medium in the world, perhaps the ‘70s and before.

Will the U.S. welcome Jewish refugees this time around?

Israel doesn’t have a free hand. It depends heavily on the US for aid, and if Israel did what is necessary to crush the Palestinians once and for all, the Arabs would squeal with outrage, as would western public opinion, and the US would stop its aid, and the EU would impose full scale sanctions, both of which would bring Israel’s economy to its knees and make them more vulnerable than ever to a rich Arab world well equipped with modern weapons from threatening Israel.
