Anti-Semitism

Norm blogs on the damaging and worrying rise of ant-semitism.

Mick Hartley mentions a planned boycott of this week’s commemoration of the liberation of Auschwitz, by the Muslim Council of Britain, because they claim it is not racially inclusive and does not commemorate the victims of the Palestinian conflict.
He quotes Khalid Mahmood, the MP for Birmingham Perry Barr:
People who were exterminated in the Holocaust were not just Jews. There were Romany gypsies as well. Anybody who is interested in human rights should support this remembrance.”
Does not the phrase "not just Jews" make you want to scream?
