State of Hate: How Paranoia and Arrogance Undermine Outsiders
Mein Gott! Will Mossad have to undertake some strategic assassinations in the UK? Even before the toxic tsunami of xenophobia triggered by the vote for Brexit, public discourse here had been infected by the most appalling anti-Semitism. In 2015 a British newspaper openly suggested that Jews are “outsiders” who are prone to paranoia, arrogance and […]
Hit by a Hate-Quake: Brexit, Saint Jo and the Liberal Elite
