London writer Melanie Phillips wrote how Britian is changing in January after the anti-Israel rallies:
"People who have been at the pro-and anti-Israel demonstrations in London have been producing some absolutely horrifying descriptions and images. On Harry’s Place pictures (such as the one here from Indymedia) capture the violence and thuggery of the left/Islamist alliance at demonstrations last night and last week. A reader on that thread adds his experience:
I was there last night - in fact me and my mate were one of the first to arrive. As we crossed from the station and walked towards the embassy, we were greeted by lunatics waving Hamas and Hezbollah flags. In front of us walked a young man, wearing a kippah. He got out of his bag and Israeli flag and was immediately taken to the side by two police officers. After questioning him for about 10 minutes, he was issued a caution. After he was released we went up to talk to him - he showed us the police caution - and i kid you not - it stated that by getting out an Israeli flag he was causing provocation to the pro palestinian demonstration.
...What we are witnessing in these repeated hate-fests, including the onslaught outside the Israel embassy, is the jihad erupting on the streets of London – aided and abetted by a fifth column of non-Muslim leftists and Jew-haters.
The silence of the political class – with one or two honourable exceptions -- in the face of all this is unacceptable.
...For silence is complicity, as once gentle, decent, civilised Britain changes before our horrified eyes into something very ugly indeed.
