Moonbritsby Steven Plaut
So let's see if we have this clear. First, BBC reporter Alan Johnston gets himself kidnapped in Gaza by the same "activists and militants" his TV station so adores. Then according to his apparent captors he gets murdered in cold blood as an act of protest against the Israeli occupation of Gaza, which the BBC has yet to discover was ended. Then his colleagues in Britain's National Union of Journalists (NUJ) decide to a strong stand. In favor of terrorism. Reallly. With 35,000 members, the NUJ officially declared a boycott of tomatoes, cucumbers, oranges, and other products from Israel. Next time the IRA blows up buildings in London, the NUJ will demand that all visiting Israeli professors in the UK be jailed. By doing so, it joins the other Moonbrits already denouncing Israel, which is the only Middle East regime that is NOT an apartheid regime, for being an apartheid regime. The Wall Street Journal comments: 'For British journalists working in the field, the NUJ's political grandstanding cannot be entirely welcome. Besides the further damage this does to their reputation among Israelis, they also have little choice but to eat those dreadful Zionist tomatoes. We suspect, too, that Mr. Johnston's kidnapping has probably made them feel secretly grateful for the safety and freedom that living in stable, democratic Israel affords.' Islamofascist terrorists blow up the London tube trains? The Moonbrit response is to condemn dem Joos. If bin Laden and his friends ever decide to protest the illegal British occupation of Redding by crashing some planes into Westminster, the NUJ will call for an appropriate response in the form of making British Jews wear yellow stars... |
