A Swastika scrawled by a pupil in a classroom has raised parents' fears that children are being brainwashed into anti-Semitism by pro-Palestinian activists.

The crude graffiti at a Brighton comprehensive was last night being investigated by police.

The image, in marker pen on the back of a plastic chair, has been visible at Patcham High School for several weeks.

Alarmed parents alerted the headteacher over the weekend to the 'frightening' development.

A family with children at the school, said: 'Pupils have been targeted by pro-Palestinian activists in our area. They are making massive efforts to radicalise British children into anti-Semitic hatred since the October 7 invasion of Israel by Hamas.'

One father said: 'We are scared of the future.' He added that the swastika should not be blamed on Palestinian or Muslim pupils, saying: 'It is local English children caught up in this radicalisation by Palestinian activists.'

Yes even their embrace of Lawrence of Arabia shows their arabist leanings. Then there is the BBC which does what it can to introduce Jew hate into its programming. British officers joined Jordan to kill Jews.

John Bagot Glubb was a kind of revenge for Orde Wingate, I guess.

Please. There is also much philo-Semitism in British culture, going back centuries and originating with British Israelism, a component of Puritan culture.

And don't forget Disraeli, or the Balfour Declaration, or Churchill.

Okay, so Brits don't side with Jews 100% of the time. They don't always side with anyone 100% of the time, not even with themselves. That's normal.

Yes fair enough. I recall arguing with an old man I met in London, and when I told him the PLO was worse than the IRA he almost flipped his lid. Maybe its more an element of the British left? I recall the BBC production Ivanhoe. If you read the book by Sir Walter Scott it is far more sympathetic on Issac of York than the BBC. The BBC portrayed Issac an old greedy Jew.
