UK: Students vote against starting a Jewish society after Holocaust denier complains

10

How many Muslim societies, planning G-d knows what, does Essex University have? Thanks to the left, and in significant part thanks to Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour Party, Jew-hatred has been normalized in Britain today. Politicians all across the political spectrum are rushing to win the vote of the growing and restive Muslim population by becoming increasingly antisemitic. It’s evil.

“Students vote AGAINST starting a Jewish Society at Essex University – after holocaust denier lecturer complained ‘the Zionists’ were behind the move,” by Miranda Aldersley, Mailonline, February 22, 2019:

Hundreds of students at the University of Essex have voted against setting up a Jewish society on the campus, while a lecturer voiced his opposition on Facebook claiming it was a group for ‘Zionists’.

More than 200 student union members – around a third of those polled – answered ‘no’ to the question ‘Should there be a Jewish society?’.

The proposal to start the group appeared on the student union website, whose rules state that any new society must be ratified by securing votes.

Only registered students can vote in the poll.

‘We are deeply disappointed by the significant proportion of students who have voted against the establishment of a Jewish society at the University of Essex,’ a spokesman for the Union of Jewish Students (UJS) said.

‘Jewish societies, of which over 60 exist on UK campuses up and down the country, provide a space for Jewish students to celebrate their culture and identity.

‘The fact that some students at the University of Essex deem it fit to vote against that is quite simply shocking.’

The row has also embroiled a lecturer at the university, Dr Maanuf Ali, who the UJS says has displayed anti-Semitic views.

Dr Ali also expressed opposition to the idea of a Jewish society on a Facebook post on the University of Essex Freshers’ Page 2018-2019.

The original post said that Israel plans to ‘expel 36,000 Palestinians from the Negev’, and Dr Ali commented that ‘the Zionists next want to create a society here at our university!’

It is not the first time Dr Ali has shared questionable and controversial material on Facebook, including one post that appeared to deny the Holocaust.

The computers and electronic lecturer shared a quote attributed to Edgar J Steele, an attorney who defended the white separatist organisation the ‘Aryan Nations’.

The quote reads: ‘In all of German Occupied Europe, there resided 2.4 million Jews before the war, according to the world Jewish encyclopedia.

‘After the war, 3.8 million Jewish ‘Holocaust survivors’ were receiving pensions from the German government.’

The quote continues: ‘Tragically, the remaining 6 million were lost.’

Additionally, Dr Ali shared a picture stating that ‘50,000 Jews protest[ed] Israel’ in March 2016 in New York, but that there was a ‘total mainstream media blackout by the Zionist mafia’….

On the upside: the more arab muslim scum leaving Israel the safer Israel becomes. The more arab muslim dreck inhabits the west the faster Jews will move back to their God promised homeland. A win-win!

your past enemies may, but your current enemies are only growing, and will eventually drive you into the sea to drown where you belong.

dream on. Maybe you should pray to your dead jewish savior for succor.

Piss on our current and future enemies. Their comings and goings will amount to no more that a cow fart in the wind. Our existence and destiny is not bound by the laws of nature. Were it otherwise we would have long ago disappeared, a mere 14 million in a sea of nearly 7 billion. But I am glad to see I remain a painful glass shard in your eye, lol!

Wait – so, I’m confused. The article claims 200 students — ONE-THIRD OF THOSE POLLED — opposed creation of a Jewish society at Essex U. Doesn’t that mean 400 students — TWO-THIRDS — voted “yes”? So the Jewish society was APPROVED to be formed? It doesn’t say that in the article, but that’s the clear conclusion I reach from what it DOES say.

Yes, antisemitism in academia, and in the UK Labour party and among UK Muslims, is a big problem. But let’s not get hysterical claiming a vote like this signals the end of the civilized world. Far from it. It shows two-thirds of the students who voted on the issue had good common sense and no animosity toward an official Jewish society being created. That’s something we should be celebrating, not bemoaning the one-third who were bigots.
