Hi Trish,

My family who live in London feel there is no place for them there anymore because of Jew Hatred. They are nervous about openly showing their Jewish faith.

The British were terrible to the Jewish people during the time they controlled modern day Israel. Just take a look at the events including the Hadassah Hospital Massacre. Nobody from England was ever brought to justice for it.

I think you're confused in regards to people voicing opposition to policies in Israel. That happens on a regular basis in Israel. That's what happens in a democracy. Do you know what happens if people voice opposition to leadership in places like Iran and Syria?.

I wonder if you've ever visited Israel.

There is a strong bias against Israel by major media organizations led by the BBC.

At the end of the day, every single Jewish person who lives in Israel would lay their arms down if there could be peace, but there are those like Hamas who refuse to allow it to happen. Led by Iran they love the idea of no Jews living in Israel and if carrying out genocide. Hamas said after October 7th they would rape, murder and behead over and over and over again. Should Israel pretend that Hamas is just joking?

I strongly believe in freedom of speech and freedom to assembly. I don't believe in intimidation, bullying and threats. Go to a University campus and challenge views and watch what happens. Do you think it will be peaceful dialogue?

The current anti-Jewish climate is reminiscent of 1933 in Germany.

There are only 15 million Jews in the world. Israel is a tiny county, yet enemies are dedicated to wiping out the country and the Jewish community is feeling the hatred.

This week a guy was arrested in Toronto. He was planning to attack synagogues on Rosh Hashana to kill as many Jews as possible.

When you go on the University campus, unless you agree with the leaders of the anti-Israel movement you are threatened. There is no civil discourse.

The worst part is that on October 7th 1200 people dancing at an event were murdered, They were peaceful. fun loving people like you. Babies beheaded and thrown in ovens women were raped and murdered. It was cold blooded murder and those innocent people butchered by Hamas are now being treated like after thoughts. It hursts beyond words. Have you spoken up for those people? Have you publicly condemned Hamas? Why not?

There are still hostages being treated like less than human, yet nobody, including you in your note to me seem to give a damn about them. After all they are Israeli and Jews and women and children. If it was any other group, the world would be outraged. Have you protested against the barbarity of Hamas and what they have done to the hostages? Why not?

Double standards suck, yet when it comes to Israel and the Jewish people, propaganda that would make Goebbels proud is celebrated.

ps..Six million Jewish people were murdered by the Nazis. The Holocaust should not be trivialized and there is no moral equivalency. Hamas shooting hostages in the back of the head at close range is Nazism. Israel defending its right to exist is survival.

I appreciate that you want to defend the ''''underdog '' but what about the billions that Hamas leadership took for themselves instead of building a decent society? Instead of using the money to allow people to live quality lives, they instead used the money for weapons and tunnels to try and destroy Israel. Gaza could have been Dubai.

Today there was another barrage of rockets from Lebanon at civilian populations. When Israel responds they're the bad guys.

I wish you well Trish, but I wish you would take a deeper look at who is trying to destroy who. The Jewish people of Israel live for peace, check out the Abraham Accords. It is sad that so many people who claim to be filled with Love and Peace actually advocate for death and destruction. Anti-Semitism manifests itself in different ways and the majority if antisemites I have encountered don't consider themselves antisemites even if their actions say otherwise. When a person supports Hamas they are in cahoots with a death cult who believe in martyrdom and genocide. A group dedicated to killing and extinguishing Jews from the world. Young and Old. This will be my last response to your notes. I hope you have a good life and visit Israel someday. I am sure you will learn quickly that it is a country filled with people who believe in Love and Peace.
