Polizei weigert sich, „Hassverbrechen“ zu verfolgen, nachdem Hakenkreuz an jüdische Gruppe verschickt wurde

Setting such a daft precedent by getting involved in social media nonsense looks sillier and sillier all the time.

> The UJS had published a message online about an increase in anti-Semitic behaviour, particularly towards Jewish students on campuses.

> A man then responded with the bloodied swastika and Star of David image with the caption: “The irony of becoming what you once hated.”

> He wrote there was “nothing endangering Jewish students”, claiming the UJS was “exploiting them to push pro-genocide propaganda and deflect Israel’s responsibility for murdering 40,000 civilians”. 

As someone who has marched with Palestinian solidarity this is not a good look, and it’s so frustrating to see others connecting Jewishness to Israel. It’s very antisemitic and takes away from the point they’re trying to make. 

That being said, props to the Telegraph headline for making it look like a neo Nazi was just spamming Jewish people with swastikas for fun while the police ignore it. 

Edit: people have pointed out below that the UJS picked a side on the Gaza genocide themselves, so I retract the part about Jewishness. I can’t stop people from connecting themselves to Israel and they deserve all the criticism they get for doing so.

The amount of anti semitism in the UK currently is absolutely shocking.

I’m confused, are the police arresting people over tweets or not. The media seems confused
