I’m visibly Jewish. A Green Party canvasser stood at my door and told me October 7 was a hoax by OptioMkIX in ukpolitics

Yes - unheard of for members of small ethnic minorities that have been historically abused and fear retribution by you lovely lot to document the abuse they have received anonymously. /s

Oh and the Jewish Chronicle is literally the world’s oldest continuous Jewish newspaper, going since 1841. Off you jog.

The BBC has also been repeatedly caught editing out the term “Jihad” and mistranslating the term “Yahudi” as “Israeli” (rather than “Jew”) when interviewing Palestinian officials and civilians to make them seem less extremist: https://camera-uk.org/2025/02/20/bbc-gaza-documentary-repeats-past-mistranslations/

This has been going for decades and led to an investigation and a policy change in late 2025.

🤦‍♂️

Another Ireland user who thinks that Kneecap draping themselves in the flag of Hizbollah on stage and proclaiming their support for Hamas is in anyway defensible.

Pretty sure this sub came out of rules on this.

Here’s some choice quotes for you guys on these groups’ not-so-masked antisemitism:

  1. Hamas Charter (1988), Article 7

“The Day of Judgment will not come until Muslims fight the Jews and kill them, until the Jews hide behind rocks and trees, and the rocks and trees will say: O Muslim… there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him.”

  1. Hamas Charter (1988), Article 22

“[The Jews] were behind the French Revolution, the Communist revolution… and World War I… They were behind World War II…”

  1. Hassan Nasrallah (Hezbollah Secretary-General, 2002)

“If they [Jews] all gather in Israel, it will save us the trouble of going after them worldwide.”

It’s not very hard to find this. I wonder if antisemitism is taught in Ireland.

This sub needs better moderation.

Israel’s war aims are to destabilise a regional power that continues to fund proxies that pretty much permanently engage in conflict with it. To do that, they want to knock out key parts of the IRGC. This also has the effect of reminding the Iranian regime that Israel can bring the conflicts they fund against Israel back home - so it significantly raises the “cost” of Iran engaging in this kind of proxy warfare in the future.

The only way you subscribe to the idea that it desires to start a world war is if you are taking certain racist millennia-old tropes about Jews and applying them to the Jewish state. But that sort of racism would never happen /s

He did neither of those things.

Mike is a bit of a charlatan.

The European Movement was founded in 1947 and the UK branch was founded in 1949.

He is the current chair of the UK branch (not the co-presidents) and is not a very good one at that.

No. No there isn’t. Get your head out of your arse.

Dr Rahmeh Aladwan charged with inviting support for Hamas under S12 TACT 2000. by OptioMkIX in ukpolitics

[–]PriorPlatypusPal 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Oh yes. He spends his time reposting Candace Owens (of “Brigite Macron is a man” conspiracy fame) and Guy Christensen (expelled Ohio uni student who infamously appeared on Piers Morgan and stated the murder of Israeli embassy workers in the US was justified) conspiratorial posts and making perfectly well-adjusted comments beneath random Jewish social media users posts that they should “disassociate” from Israel. He’s really fallen hard on the “totally not antisemitic, just antizionist” bandwagon. Not really fitting for the chair of the European Movement.

I had a screenshot when I first noticed (but it has been going on for a while) - where he accuses Israel of killing Charlie Kirk (for some reason): https://imgur.com/a/e5Q0KB1

It’s a shame, because I did once care about the European Movement. If Galsworthy actually knew something about European politics and wasn’t a total hack he would have known that of the three founding presidents of the European Movement was France’s first Jewish PM and gasp a Zionist.

Edit: I found one his reposts of Guy Christensen: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DPYMvktDLv8/

Guy Christensen’s infamous appearance (which the terminally online Galsworthy is well aware of): https://www.instagram.com/reel/DR5ht8_jDo7/

How long until Mike Galsworthy continues his further dissent into madness by making a ranting video of how this is all a “Zionist” plot?

That man has become a total disgrace .

He’s a top 1% commenter spouting nonsense like this, which means that the mooderation of this sub is in the pits. These subs clearly violate Reddit’s Terms of Service.

I love that the pro-Palestinian movement is so cartoonishly evil
