The November 11 Rally in London Was Anti-Israel and Violent; Here Is the Proof

More than a month since the most lethal and barbaric antisemitic attack since the Holocaust was perpetrated by Palestinians in Gaza, pro-Palestinian demos have taken place weekly in London.
All of these marches have failed to condemn the Hamas massacre or demand the release of the 240 hostages (including children) illegally held by the terror group.
In fact, since the very beginning, the marches have included chants, banners and other actions indicating varying levels of support for the mass murder of Jews committed by Hamas, a proscribed terror group
Further as the Telegraph reported last week, half of the main organizers of the November 11 march, which coincided with Armistice Day, were affiliated with Hamas. This includes Muhammad Kathem Sawalha, who led the terror group in the West Bank in the late 1980s and is alleged to have “masterminded” its military strategy with involvement as recently as 2019, before moving to Britain.
As we noted in a post about a previous march, which was similarly framed by British media outlets as “peaceful,” reporters seemed determined to reach that conclusion regardless of the facts on the ground.
While it’s been noted that many marched peacefully, many acted in an openly antisemitic fashion, which included displaying grotesque caricatures of puppetmasters, references to Zionism as a disease, and placards and recited chants that called for Palestine to be free “from the river to the sea” — a widely understood as a call for the elimination of the state of Israel and the murder or total displacement of its seven-million strong Jewish population.
And there was violence at the November 11 march.
Here’s some of the evidence undermining media reports suggesting that this most recent march, which drew hundreds of thousands of people, was “peaceful.”

A man attacked for opposing Hamas:
State of this. This Iranian man holds a sign saying “Hamas is Isis”. Even that is too much for these masked men, who attack him. Lucky @joshglancy wasn’t walking past in his kippah at the time. The shame of Britain. Paging @metpoliceuk pic.twitter.com/ptpq9xRxns

Protesters dressed up as Hamas terrorists:
How people could pose with photos and not say anything to people dressed terrorists (note hamas headband).
This is completely unacceptable. Anyone that was there and said nothing, shame on you. pic.twitter.com/m6CKnPcDaR

Death to all Jews:
“Death to all the Jews,” a woman screams in a crowded London underground station.
People keep walking by. No one confronts her.
Our country must not stand by as antisemitism is increasingly normalised.
This is not normal.@MetPoliceUK, where are you?pic.twitter.com/OP2hTySIAW

Antisemitism caught on camera:
Antisemitic placards were so common on yesterday’s anti-Israel march that TV news coverage can’t even show general footage without another one passing across the screen. pic.twitter.com/kMxvAGtDyj

Protesting Hamas not allowed:

Now, the gaslighting reporting on the march:
Channel 4 News
Their report last night by presenter Jane Dodge (“Massive London march for Palestinians as far-right protest turn violent,” Nov. 11) on the protests highlighted a relatively small number of far right counter-protesters, while almost completely erasing the pro-Palestinian extremism.
The Independent
The Indy — in several reports yesterday– also focused almost entirely on relatively small number of far-right counter-protesters, while obfuscating the hate and extremism by the far, far larger pro-Palestinian demonstrators.
The Guardian
The Guardian didn’t just ignore the antisemitism, thuggery and calls for violence, but wrote the following in of their major report on the protests (“Hundreds of thousands rally for Gaza in London as police arrest far-right protesters,” Nov. 11): “Hundreds of thousands of people marched peacefully through central London yesterday to protest against Israel’s continued bombardment of Gaza”
A photo gallery they published similarly managed to avoid any photos depicting the extremism displayed by many of the marchers.
The Telegraph
In contrast with The Guardian, Channel 4 News and The Independent, The Telegraph reported extensively on the antisemitic hate on display at yesterday’s march, and included an official editorial titled “A day of chaos that shamed Britain.”
Their reporting also noted that “several of the [antisemitic and extremist] stickers and placards held by protesters appeared to have been produced by the Friends of al-Aqsa group (one one the main organisers of the march), founded and chaired by Ismael Patel, a Leicester-based Islamist who has repeatedly voiced his support for Hamas.”
They were also the only outlet we reviewed which reported on the pro-Palestinian demonstrators harassing Jews going to synagogue in northwest London — per this tweet.
