Brilliant and beautifully written. My own family has had a similar history and I too thank God that my parents are no longer here to see what has happened to Canada which is following in the footsteps of the UK.
My parents of blessed memory were Holocaust survivors so our timeline is even shorter than the author’s. Such a dramatic turn for the worst in such a short time is truly astonishing.
Look at Shanghai… large parts built and developed by Mizrahi Jews… and now… a vibrant community of Ashkenazim, Sephardim, and Mizrahim, as well as a large community of Russian Jews in Beijing…
I don't understand the Jews in the UK. What exactly are you waiting for? Do you think or believe or even hope that there will be a change for the positive in the Near or far future?
The British have forcefully kicked out the Jews twice in the last millennium, are you waiting for the 3rd time to get the message?
Britain is a carbon copy of Canada, except at least in Britain the Jews are not living in a bubble fantasy world where most Jews, especially our unelected Jewish leaders, act as if it 1980 and not the 1930s when Jew hatred in Canada was open, applauded, and vitriolic. In Britain, Jews are realizing staying may no longer be an option, while in Canada, the unelected leaders and the rabbis keep saying "hush, hush, do not make waves or they will hate us", and continue to deny living in Canada, especially Toronto is is becoming intolerable and very dangerous and the likelihood of a terror attack is high, this according to the RCMP and Intelligence agencies, while the Toronto police openly acting as friends, bodyguards and servants of the jihadist hordes. Meanwhile the Jewish leaders continue to thank the police who in nearly every city has allowed rampant hate crimes and other crimes like physical assaults to go unpunished, watch as Jews are threatened and have not pursued the multi cases of arson, shootings, and vandalism against the community. They believe opinion papers will solve the issue, along with debates, as well as grovelling on their bellies begging for protection from the PM, an aider and abetter of the Jew hate by his total deliberate ignoring of what is occurring while screaming about the minimal Islamophobia in Canada. Over 70% of religious hate crimes are against Jews, who are only 360 000 in Canada while only 11% are against Muslims who number two million. This behaviour by the unelected leaders make the Jews the laughing stock in Canada. For if we have no self-respect and act as ghetto Jews permanently, who have no alternatives, why should the rest of Canadian have respect of us?
As to a suitcase plan, it's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. The sum total of this trouble IS Islam which to my mind is a pox on civilization and British so-called "leadership" is aiding and abetting this barbarism. The author IS correct in writing "where marching for “Palestinian freedom” somehow never requires condemning Palestinian terrorism, fascism, corruption, antisemitism, and failed leadership spanning decades."
"The sum total of this trouble IS Islam which to my mind is a pox on civilization "
While true, the Marxist Left parties in all Western countries have now allied themselves openly with Islam and are using Muslims along with Antifa, etc. to silence all opposition. Obama understood this perfectly.
Agree with your view of other groups working together. However, they do so at their peril because Islam aims to be ther ONLY group left standing and these other groups are the Islamic version of "useful idiots."
My husband’s family was still in Lithuania when the Holocaust occurred. Most of them perished in the camps, survivors left the European mainland for Palestine, Canada, the USA, and Manchester, England. The new “Brits” decided that since Manchester had indoor plumbing, they had traveled far enough. Now, they have to uproot themselves and figure out their next “refuge.”
How long before those who continued on to the USA and Canada must do the same? And how long until Israel is the only safe option?
I still love Britain: Liberal and Freedom-loving, who stood alone and then defeated Hitler. But the world has changed around us both. This is no-one’s fault as such. Once again, Jewish people have become scapegoat and lightning conductors for these new anxieties: Demographics and Islamism. Again, this is not our fault. But I am not waiting for a Fascist government here. Best wishes, and Goodbye To All That. We know what is coming.
A prominent Muslim here in the UK is quoted as saying, in the aftermath of 9/11, that ‘The Little Children Need Somewhere To Play’. This is a direct endorsement of the War of Demographics fought silently by having five-children families when Muslims come to The West. This what I mean as to how the world has changed. Now this future is almost here. But not quite yet. President Trump looks to reverse this Demographic. Long may he live to do so, and his successors too. This is what is coming in Europe. We were warning about this Political dynamic thirty years ago. Now this is here. Trump’s genius is to make this happen WITHOUT NAZI VIOLENCE. We applaud all the way. Trump is not an anti-Semite. But here in the UK, Farage the leader of the Fascists is antisemitic and therefore violent. This is why the Politics of Demographics of The Hard Right must be handled successfully by the Conservative Party. We shall see….
What is coming next is very frightening. There is an Interesting suggestion that immigration was allowed to provoke a backlash. I don’t think so however. Socialist incompetence is more to blame, with the failure to think through the consequences of the policy. But we are getting a Hard Right Government within 3 years here in The UK.
"But I am not waiting for a Fascist government here."
Describe a "Fascist" government. Who is the leader of the British "Fascists" and what is the name of his party? I live in America so have not heard of this giant "Fascist" Party.
A Fascist is someone who uses and endorses Active Violence and intimidation to get his way in society. Tell tale markers for Fascism is open Antisemitism. Here in the UK we have a large Fascist party led by an Antisemite. His name is Farage and he leads The Reform UK Party.
What makes you think Farage is an antisemite? I'm interested because I haven't seen that side of him and I think you're right that he may well be the next PM.
Farage will not acknowledge that he was a Racist and Antisemitic bully at school. He will not admit this nor apologise, saying merely that this was a long time ago. Check out Farage at Dulwich College. This is all now public knowledge on the Net. The guy is a very nasty piece of work.
So, because you believe Farage is a fascist that negates the entire Reform Party?
In the United States, every Republican president or presidential candidate since the 1940's has been labeled a Fascist by the Democrats. Both Biden and Harris called Trump a Fascist.
So, to me at least in America its a badge of honor because every Communist uses it against anyone promoting the citizen and The Constitution over tyrannical government.
What you say does not follow. The Republicans do not use violence and intimidation, nor antisemitism to get their way. Farage has done, and also was OPENLY Racist and antisemitic. This makes him far more dangerous than even Hard Right Republicans.
WAKE UP EUROPE: JEWS are the Canaries in the COAL MINE
"Jews can do their fellow citizens a favor by identifying the sources of cultural poison before the toxicity turns fatal. Hardly anybody is doing it better than these two."
People are poor students of history. Most would rather live in the state of denial with words of, “it can’t happen here“, or as one Jewish resident of my apartment complex remarked, “it doesn’t affect me”.
The problem is that all of those Jews in the past felt the same way with disastrous results.
The article makes a great point: It’s not the number of Jews in a particular country but the disproportionate influence we have in the character of the place we live. A country that loses its Jews loses its soul.
When the Jew haters are done with the Jews, who’s next? Pastor Niemoeller‘s words boom in our ears. When political influence takes the place of basic citizen protections, no one is safe. It’s time to pack your suitcase.
Leaving aside the issue, Israel or the US for British Jewry, British Christians and nationalists should be packing their suitcases and coming to the US.
Sadly, the US may not be a haven for long. The left has allied itself with the Islamicists and demonize Jewish Americans constantly. The same old tropes--we are oppressors, we are too successful, we are too powerful. The conservative movement is starting fray as well with a poisonous Jew hatred and claim we are Israel firsters, are too powerful, and too greedy, are anti-Christian (of all things).
I wrote this yesterday on another Substack. I live in Iowa. I ask others to help me connect what is happening to racial and cultural minorities to their own lives. I believe I cannot bargain with a system that requires a steady supply of 'others' to exclude—eventually, everyone becomes 'not white or Christian enough.'
As a Jew and former elected official, I continue to offer the following:
1. We can stop asking 'Who does this politician hate?' and start asking 'Whose life does this policy actually improve?' When we see that the same people preaching supremacy are the ones stripping away our healthcare and schools, the blinders slip.
2. Understanding these hierarchies have never brought safety to average White, Christian America; they only offer the hollow comfort of being 'better than' someone else while the floor is being cut out from under everyone.
3. We can listen to communities who have been ringing the alarm for decades. They’ve always known this system has no 'safe' end point.
4. If the 'kind of white or Christian' you are today is only protected because someone else is currently being targeted, you aren't safe—you’re just next.
That this article is even written while I live is shameful!
Jews and Christians must stand and fight! Together!
Evil is always cowardly, give it a bloody nose and it will tuck tail and run. It is shameful that Christians are not stepping up to the plate and fighting for their Jewish fellow citizens. I will not stand for it; if you won't take a stand for our Jewish populations and to defend the Holy Land (Israel) then you are a coward and worse you are not a Christian in my book.
We cannot run, soon there won't be anywhere to run to. You can fight now or make your stand in Israel but you will have to fight, regardless if you are a Jew or a Christian. Don't let the Evil cult of Islam take over our communities and countries... Fight back!
I will fight and lay down my life to defend fellow Jewish citizens. I will stand by them, and I trust my family to their protection as well.
Brilliant and beautifully written. My own family has had a similar history and I too thank God that my parents are no longer here to see what has happened to Canada which is following in the footsteps of the UK.
From the U.S. - same. So glad my parents are not here to witness all of this.
My parents of blessed memory were Holocaust survivors so our timeline is even shorter than the author’s. Such a dramatic turn for the worst in such a short time is truly astonishing.
Britain will be part of the Ummah and its non-Muslim population will live in humiliation as dhimmis.
Jews have a place to go to avoid this. Most others do not.
Perhaps Christians can flee to eastern Europe.
When the Muslims come for my weapons, I will give them to them – barrels first.
A country without Jews is not much of a country.
Thank you.
China and Japan might disagree with that assumption.
Look at Shanghai… large parts built and developed by Mizrahi Jews… and now… a vibrant community of Ashkenazim, Sephardim, and Mizrahim, as well as a large community of Russian Jews in Beijing…
Oh… and they’re welcome…
Japan's constitution was written by a Jewish woman and china has one of the oldest communities of Jews..I would say they're jewless..
I don't understand the Jews in the UK. What exactly are you waiting for? Do you think or believe or even hope that there will be a change for the positive in the Near or far future?
The British have forcefully kicked out the Jews twice in the last millennium, are you waiting for the 3rd time to get the message?
For many it's called "That stuff that makes the world tick" if you can get the drift.

It's appalling that it has come to this. I've started looking at what would be needed for me, not a Jew, to move to Israel.
I’ve head there are ways but it’s not simple
I know, and quite rightly so.
As to a suitcase plan, it's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. The sum total of this trouble IS Islam which to my mind is a pox on civilization and British so-called "leadership" is aiding and abetting this barbarism.

Actually, it is the fault of successive British governments who have allowed barbarians to invade. This situation was completely avoidable.
Not allowed, more like encouraged
