Netanyahu demands anti-Zionist posters be removed from London Underground

RT | February 23, 2016

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reportedly asked the UK government to have hundreds of posters protesting Israeli occupation of Palestine removed from the Tube.

The Haaretz newspaper reported Tuesday that the Israeli prime minister himself had asked that the posters, which may have been posted in their hundreds, be removed.

The posters appeared on Sunday as part of a mass fly-posting effort to mark the annual Israeli Apartheid Week.

The posters on the London Underground trains hit out at a number of targets, including controversial UK private military firm G4S, which is involved in the running of Israeli prisons.

Transport for London (TfL) said that the posters would be taken down.

“It is flyposting and therefore an act of vandalism, which we take extremely seriously,” A TfL spokesman told the Evening Standard.

“Our staff and contractors are working to immediately remove any found on our network,” the spokesman added.

Some Jewish community groups said that the posters amounted to “smears” against Israel.

“These posters are awful smears that do nothing to contribute to peace and dialogue, placing significant strains on inter-community relations across London,” a London Jewish Forum spokesman told Haaretz.

“They are an act of vandalism, seeking to undermine the UK’s relationship with Israel and designed to foster discomfort. We welcome Transport for London’s commitment to quickly remove them.”

The posters were reported Monday as the Palestinian envoy to the UK Manuel Hassassian told the Independent newspaper that the decision to invite Israeli parliament speaker Yuli Edelstein to address an event held in the UK Parliament risked legitimizing Israeli expansionism, given Edelstein’s background.

“Mr Edelstein lives on an illegal Israeli settlement built on Palestinian land and he publicly opposes Palestinian statehood,” Hassassian said.

Edelstein is due to address the British Group Inter-Parliamentary Union in March.

  1. Note: President Harry Truman quote “The Jews, I find are very, very selfish. They care not how many Estonians, Latvians, Finns, Poles, Yugoslavs or Greeks get murdered or mistreated as D[isplaced] P[ersons] as long as the Jews get special treatment. Yet when they have power, physical, financial or political neither Hitler nor Stalin has anything on them for cruelty or mistreatment to the under dog.” Read more: whatreallyhappened.com http://whatreallyhappened.com/#ixzz3zh8UgKD4

    • Netanyahu will be found to be worst than Hitler eventually..The Nazi German camps were factory operations where the inmates made war materials for the German army, a parallel to the booming prison-labor industry in the United States Today. But at the end of WW2, the planners of Israel faced a major problem. The world had just united against Germany on the principle that one nation does not have a right to simply march into another nation and take it for their own use, which is exactly what the planners of Israel wanted to do to Palestine. Israel needed a propaganda weapon so powerful that all the world’s nation that had sacrificed so much blood and treasure would be convinced that what Germany could not be allowed to do to Poland and France, Israel had to be allowed to do to Palestine. So using Jewish-controlled media, slave-labor facilities became death camps, delousing became gassing, shower rooms became gas chambers, deaths from typhus epidemics became extermination, and one of the greatest lies ever told was born.

      • You’re probably right. The problem with “The Holocaust” is that anyone who even questions it is immediately “Demonized” as ‘anti-Semitic. All over the world scholars are researching ancient Egypt, The Inca’s, The Aztecs, etc etc, trying to add knowledge to what happened before we were all born, and they are always adding to the accumulated knowledge. But research into the Holocaust is FORBIDDEN.
        Consider this; If your country was involved in a total war, where everything was rationed, fuel supplies were scarce etc, and YOU were given the job of identifying, killing, and burying 6,000,000 people, where would you start?
        Also, don’t forget, that the International Red Cross have publicly stated that ‘only’ 271,301 people died in work Camps in WWII.

  3. Thanks to RT and Aletho News.

    The backlash against Zionism, Zionists and the Jews and Judaism that spawned them, when it comes (faster, please…), will be horrific. We may all be caught up in it. All the silent complicit or active complicit sheople and institutions — including sitting governments — should be on the front lines of the conflagration and will deserve whatever fate they meet.

    In the meantime, I, too, am a Palestinian! Viva Palestine!

  4. Good work by the fly-posters! All such efforts are useful means of making the truth known.
