A few years ago I would have written that Dean’s Leftist associates assumed he was a “moderate.” But now it’s clear that Leftists have no problem with open supporters of jihad violence.
“‘Schools strikes for Gaza’ organiser glorified Hamas,” by David Rose, The JC, December 7, 2023:
One of the organisers of the “school strikes for Palestine” movement, which saw thousands of children bunking off school to join anti-Israel protests last month, posted messages on a WhatsApp group glorifying Hamas and justifying the killing of a British teenager, the JC can reveal.
As a result of our investigation, he has been reported to the police by the Department for Education.
The activist, who goes by the name of “Dean”, was exposed after this newspaper infiltrated a chat group set up to co-ordinate anti-Israel rallies attended by schoolchildren across the country, including the one due to take place this Thursday.
In one message shared in the group, Dean posted a message celebrating the detonation of a mine by Hamas terrorists “against eight Israeli foot soldiers”.
“Anyone who survived the mine blast was shot dead by Mujahideen [holy warrior] sniper,” it said.
The message, posted on Sunday, added that “perhaps the biggest achievement of the day” was an attack on an Israeli camp, where “many Israeli soldiers died”.
The post ended with emojis of a heart, a flexed bicep and the Palestinian flag.
On Monday, Dean posted a photo of Binyamin Needham, the 19-year-old from Edgware who was killed serving with the IDF on Sunday, saying he was a “British Zionist terrorist killed by Palestinian resistance forces… this Brit who opted to fight for a foreign, genocidal terrorist organisation survived less than 48 hours in the Gaza Strip.”
The Department for Education told the JC it was “extremely concerned” about the posts and confirmed on Wednesday that it had passed them on to the police and Home Office, asking them to investigate further….

We are beginning to see the “dhiminisation ” of non Islamic civilisations, even in non Islamic countries. It must be repulsed at all costs, at these early stages before it gets worse. I for one, will not ” bend the knee “

“The Department for Education told the JC it was “extremely concerned” about the posts and confirmed on Wednesday that it had passed them on to the police and Home Office, asking them to investigate further…” This means forget the whole thing as it never happened. The west is in desperate need of leaders like Theodore Roosevelt and Winston Churchill. Wait, it has one in the name of Benjamin Netanyahu. The problem is that both Europe and the US are blind to the danger within their midst.

Ive noticed these islamic morons and various stupid Hamas supporters are all using Facebook and Whatsapp to spew their vile hatred for the Jewish people and Israel in general and yet they seem to dismiss the actual FACT that not only is Facebook and Whatsapp owned by an American Jewish guy and that Whatsapp was invented by an Israel guy in Tel Aviv..
Is there a word in Arabic for Irony ?.
