A Look At Britains' Treatment of Jews Today and Yesterday

Nadene Goldfoot                                   
Now a board game of historical conflict.  

43 CE Rome invaded Brittania (Britain) and held it until 5th Century CE  Brits could have been used by the Romans to attack Jerusalem in 70 CE along with their Roman soldiers.  It was their practice.  (1,900 years later in 1940 Germany tried to invade England.)
                                                         

                                                      
Roman invasion of Brittania 
400 CE Anglo Saxons (Germanic people) started settling in Britain 
800 CE:  Vikings raided England, started settling there
10th Century:  Kingdom of England emerged 
                                                       
3RD CRUSADE
The goal was to win "Palestine" (named by Romans  in 135 CE after losing a 3 year war to the Jews over Jerusalem)  from the Moslems.  Their
religious passion caused all Jews they met to be slaughtered.
Jerusalem was captured in 1099 and Jews and Karaites
were massacred.  The 3rd Crusade (1189-1192) had wide
support from England where it led to preliminary attacks by the assembled crusaders on the Jews in many places, especially in York in 1190.  
1066 CE Normans conquered England ; of William, the Conqueror
1135-1154 THE TIME OF THE ANARCHY: of House of Plantagenet, when MAGNA CARTA  was signed.  Richard I THE LIONHEART fighting in 3rd Crusade, not home tending to business, was captured, had to give honor to Pope, brother John took over om 1199.  He lost territories to Normandy.  , Magna Carta, which means 'The Great Charter', is one of the most important documents in history as it established the principle that everyone is subject to the law, even the king, and guarantees the rights of individuals, the right to justice and the right to a fair trial. 
1212 England but a vassal of the HOLY SEE until 14th century.  
1215 Barons rebelled against King John for high taxes, unwanted wars, disagreeing with Pope over religion; contains legal limits on king's powers; had permission from Pope to break his word taken under duress.  Prince Louis of France invaded and John was replaced in May 1216.  John opposed rebel forces, held Rochester Castle for 2 months.  

1290 Expulsion of Jews from England to last for 365 years. What happened to the Jews' rights?  

13th Century:  Britain conquered Wales 
1337-1453 HUNDRED YEARS WAR-France; War of Roses, when the House of York and House of Lancaster fought each other.  
1348  BLACK DEATH HIT ENGLAND  an epidemic of bubonic plague that spread all over Europe, arrived in England in 1348 and killed as much as a third to half the population. Military conflicts during this period were usually with domestic neighbours such as the Welsh, Irish and Scots, and included the Hundred Years' War against the French and their Scottish allies.
1485:  King Henry Tudor ended War of the Roses, established Tudor dynasty 

                                                 

1509-1547: King Henry VIII  Henry disagreed with the Pope, had 8 wives, was cut off by the Pope. The newly established Church of England amounted to little more than the existing Catholic Church, but led by the king rather than the Pope. It took a number of years for the separation from Rome to be completed, and many were executed for resisting the king's religious policies. In 1538, the chief minister Thomas Cromwell pursued an extensive campaign against what was termed "idolatry" by the followers of the old religion, culminating in September with the dismantling of the shrine of St. Thomas Becket at Canterbury. As a consequence, the king was excommunicated by Pope Paul III on 17 December of the same year.[ In 1540, Henry sanctioned the complete destruction of shrines to saints. In 1542, England's remaining monasteries were all dissolved, and their property transferred to the Crown. Abbots and priors lost their seats in the House of Lords; only archbishops and bishops remained. Consequently, the Lords Spiritual—as members of the clergy with seats in the House of Lords were known—were for the first time outnumbered by the Lords Temporal.
1649 Execution of King Charles during  Stuart Dynasty and English Civil War King Charles was the son of James VI of Scotland born in 1566 in Edinburgh CastleJames VI of Scotland was the son of MARY, QUEEN OF SCOTS b: 1542 and her husband, the Frenchman, King Francis II.  The return of Mary, Queen of Scots, to Scotland in 1560, led to further tension between her and the Protestant Lords of the Congregation. Mary claimed to favour religious toleration on the French model, however the Protestant establishment feared a reestablishment of Catholicism, and sought with English help to neutralise or depose Mary. Mary's marriage to a leading Catholic precipitated Mary's half-brother, the Earl of Moray, to join with other Protestant Lords in open rebellion. Mary set out for Stirling on 26 August 1565 to confront them. Moray and the rebellious lords were routed and fled into exile; the decisive military action becoming known as the Chaseabout Raid. In 1567, Mary was captured by another rebellious force at the Battle of Carberry Hill and imprisoned in Loch Leven Castle, where she was forced to abdicate the Scottish throne in favour of her one-year-old son James. Mary escaped from Loch Leven the following year, and once again managed to raise a small army. After her army's defeat at the Battle of Langside on May 13, she fled to England, where she was imprisoned by Queen Elizabeth. Her son James VI was raised as a Protestant, later becoming King of England as well as Scotland.She died in 1586.  
1620 MAYFLOWER SHIP sails from Holland to America with Puritans who did not want to follow England's state religion of Episcopal Church of England. They sought freedom of religion.   
1649-1653:  Commonwealth of England established

1655  Jews allowed back into England 

1653-1659:  Oliver Cromwell, Protectorate and military dictatorship
1660  Stuarts return to throne
1688  in the GLORIOUS REVOLUTION with  James II deposed over power and religion Married to Anne Hyde. James II was son of King Charles (Anne Hyde is on my Robinson genealogy tree on my mother's side.We're related to the Stuart Royal family through her.)

    INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION  1760-1850

Great Britain now ruled COLONIAL EMPIRE
20TH Century:  started Decolonization.  
2018 Leaves impact on colonies now independent.  
                                                  

  England's Labour party is being led by the opositional Jeremy Corbyn. 
 His party is loaded with anti-Semitism.  
                                                              
Luciana Clare Goldsmith MP, known as Luciana Berger, is a British Labour Co-operative politician who has been the Member of Parliament for Liverpool Wavertree since 2010

Jewish Labour MP, Luciana Berger, has been outspoken against anti-Semitism.  At age 19 she had received hate mail calling her a "dirty Zionist pig", so has been fighting against this hatred for the past 18 years.  She's chairwoman of the Jewish Labour Movement.  Jeremy Corbyn had nothing to say about it.  Four people have been convicted of harrassing her since 2013 for being Jewish.  

Everyone has noticed that he is frequently criticizing Israel.  In past years has attended protests and conferences other campaigners who are very anti-Semitic.  Just before being elected the Labour leader, Stephen Pollard, editor, challenged him to explain himself.  He was known to be anti Semitic but had been an unknown, so nobody had connected him with this.  Pollard discovered Corbyn was connected to Deir Yassin, an anti-Israel group run by a Holocaust denier.  Corbyn defended an Anglican vicar who speaks on Jewish conspiracy theories, and describes Hamas and Hezbollah terrorists as his "friends."  A Paletinian mayor accused of making the blood libel against Jews in 2007 are "honored citizens to Corbyn.  

Corbyn has made a leftist takeover of the Labour Party and others hear of its members, officials and Corbyn having all these anti-Semitic opinions.  Because Theresa May's Conservative government is weakened by Brexit, it looks more possible that Corbyn  could become the Prime Minister and people are afraid. "In the House of Commons, Theresa May accused Corbyn of allowing antisemitism to “run rife” in the Labour party after he criticised her over the handling of the Windrush generation scandal." 

All the major Jewish groups are fighting against this.  The Chronicle, Jewish Leadership Council, Board of Deputies of British Jews who represented Jews back to the reign of King George III are involved.  On July 25 the 3 leading Jewish newspapers in Britain published a joint statement on the front pages, (not the back page), warning of this threat to Jews by a Jeremy Corbyn-led government.  Anti-Semites would then be in the government besides Corbyn. 

Of course his supporters are in denial, saying, "but he fights for human rights without malice.  Another swore he didn't have an anti-Semitic bone in his body! 
Others know that a loathing of Israel and of global capitalism morphs into Jew hatred and enters the political mainstream.  The sad thing for all is that the Labour Party was the party of Jews in Britain for the past hundred years. It's as if the American Democratic Party turned against Jews and Israel.  
                                                     
Naseem Shah is a British Labour Party politician. She was elected at the 2015 general election as Member of Parliament for Bradford West, winning the seat from George Galloway of the Respect Party. Born in Bradford, England, her father left when she was six years old. At age 12, she was sent to Pakistan by her mother, Zoora Shah, to escape her mother's abusive partner, where she had an arranged marriage. When she was 20, her mother was convicted of murder, attempted murder, solicitation to murder and forgery in relation to the man who abused her, and served 7 years in prison.  
Ms. Naz Shah, a member of Corbyn's Shadow Cabinet, had posted on Facebook that Israelis should be relocated to the U.S.   She was suspended by the Party. 
                                                           
"Ken Livingstone, who has resigned from the Labour Party after being suspended amid allegations of anti-Semitism, has had a long and often controversial political career."  This was London's former mayor."He was suspended from office as mayor for four weeks in 2006 for comparing a Jewish journalist to a concentration camp guard - a comment he continues to be unrepentant about, saying it was a "fuss about nothing". The suspension was overturned in court. "He has also been repeatedly criticised for his decision to welcome controversial Muslim cleric Yusuf Al-Qaradawi, who condoned suicide bombings, to London in 2005. He said it was part of an effort to improve relations with the Muslim world."  Qaradawi used TV from Qatar and tells listeners to kill Jews.  He's one of the worst of instigators in my opinion.  Egypt wouldn't have him anymore.  

 Then Ken Livingstone, former mayor of London and Corbyn's ally defended her and brought up Hitler, defending him as well.  He was also just suspended for the time being.  Corbyn selected his friend, 
                                                        
Sharmishta Chakrabarti, Baroness Chakrabarti, CBE PC, commonly known as Shami Chakrabarti, is a British Labour Party politician and member of the House of Lords.

  Shami Chakrabarti, civil-rights lawyer to investigate and she wrote a 41 page report saying that the party wasn't overrun by anti-Semitism but noted an occasional toxic atmosphere and recommended shallow fix-its like not to use certain words.  As a reward, Chakrabarti was given a peerage.  

"Chakrabarti was one of the panel members of the Leveson Inquiry into press standards throughout 2011 and 2012. In April 2016, she was invited by Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn to chair an inquiry into alleged anti-semitism in the Labour Party, and she presented its findings in June. That August, she was the only person nominated by Corbyn to receive a life peerage in the Prime Minister's Resignation Honours."  Both her Bengali parents were educated in Roman Catholic schools in Calcutta, while she herself attended a Baptist Sunday school as a child. In 2007 she broadcast a Lent talk for BBC Radio 4. She identifies as a feminist.
                                                       

 London now has a Muslim mayor, Sadiq Khan, also of the Labour Party.  Khan is a human rights lawyer, born in London to Pakistani parents.  Being from Pakistan, I have hope that he is not showing any anti-Semitism as he's a Khan and most are Pashtuns.  Right now we are having a revival of our family as we find that Pashtuns have the history of being from the 10 lost tribes of ancient Israel, taken away by Assyrians in 721 BCE. I hope Sadiq is up on his Pashtun history.  Not all Pashtuns are into this or for this as many have joined up with the Taliban.    
  • Farrakhan v Home Secretary (Human Rights Act): in 2001, Khan represented the American Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan in the High Court and successfully overturned a ban on him entering the United Kingdom, first imposed in 1986. The government subsequently won on appeal.  Farrakhan was very anti-Semitic.  

"The London mayor, who said last year he was “deeply disappointed” that Livingstone had not been expelled from the party, insisted the veteran politician’s remarks linking Hitler and Zionism were “clearly antisemitic”.  Livingstone was the former mayor of London preceding Khan.

How London's First Muslim Mayor Uses Leviticus For Muslims

Nadene Goldfoot                                                                      
Sadiq Khan b:  October 8, 1970 in London to working-class British Pakistani family, 5th of 8 children.  His grandparents migrated from India to Pakistan following the partition of Indiain 1947, and his parents migrated to England from Pakistan shortly before Khan was born. His late father, Amanullah Khan, worked as a bus driver for over 25 years; his mother, Sehrun, was seamstress.
2001 showed Asian or Asian British Pakistanis numbered 142,749, a 1.99% of population.
A 2011 show the same population of Pakistanis as 223,797 or 2.74%.
The UK now has 3 million Muslims.  

Sadiq Khan is the newly elected mayor of London, a city of 8.70 million as of 2016.  A teacher had suggested he look into law and not dentistry because " he had an argumentative personality."  He's a lawyer.  
 London has been inundated with thousands of Muslim refugees through the past few years.  He was a candidate for the UK's Labour Party and was just elected after their own rigorous campaign.  Khan wrote the book,  "Actions Against the Police," which gives in detail how to sue the police for "racism."

Someone with a surname like Khan could easily be a Pashto actually from either Pakistan, Afghanistan or India.  They are Muslims who claim to be originally from the 10 tribes of Israel that were taken by the Assyrians in 721 BCE from Israel.  I know Khans who are.  They don't all back people who back Muslim extremism, though.  The Taliban terrorists are also made up of many Pashtos who prey on other Pashtos. Sadiq Khan is not a Pashto, though.  " If a person has the surname of Khan, it doesn't mean he's a Pashto.  Zak Goldsmith is the brother in law of Imran Khan, and Imran Khan supported Zak Goldsmith in the UK elections. Many people in Asia use the  Khan surname , in Sindhi people , Rajistani in India , In China like the famous China film star Syenthia Khan etc etc.  I suppose it's as common as Smith is in the USA.  "Imran Khan Niazi,  better known as Imran Khan,  is a Pakistani politician, former cricketer, philanthropist, cricket commentator and former chancellor of the University of Bradford. " He's run for President.  

In a way, Sadiq Khan is  using Leviticus 16  to prove his own Muslim agenda.  Leviticus is the 3rd book written by Moses while on the Exodus.  There are 5 books:  Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy in that order.

 Moses was chosen to lead the descendants of Abraham's son, Isaac,  out of Egypt and back to Canaan where they had lived 400 years before.  He had to change a people who had been living in slavery and in an Egyptian environment of  polytheism, believing in animal gods.  He had to stomp out any ideas that might have crept into Abraham's belief in one G-d only.

 This Sidrah says:  “I also will do this unto you: I will appoint terror over you, even consumption and fever, that shall make the eyes to fail, and the soul to languish; and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.” )Leviticus 26:16), and also translated in the  Stone Edition of Art Scroll as:  then I will do the same to you; I will assign upon you panic, swelling lesions, and burning fever, which cause eyes to long and souls to suffer;  you will sow your seeds in vain, for your enemies will eat it.  I will turn My attention against you, you will be struck down before enemies;  those who hate you will subjugate you---you will flee with no one pursuing you.   

 It is addressing the Israelites and began with the idyllic blessings that await the Jewish people back in c1310 BCE--not Muslims.  Muslims weren't a religion until Mohammad died in 632 CE, which is about 2,000 years later.
 It's what will happen to them if they live up to the covenant with G-d, and then proceeds to the admonition which is a sobering account of punishments, frustrations and curses that will happen from attempts to destroy the covenant.  It is through G-d's underlying mercy that prevents all of these curses from happening to Israel in any one unbearable instant.  It's a careful reading of Jewish history---and perhaps the 20th century in particular---which showed that they have taken place at various intervals before and during the exiles.  The blessings are given in general terms;  the curses are given in great detail because the intention is to awe the people into obedience to G-d's will.  Maybe this is why we've continued on for the past almost 4,000 years.  We remain in awe.  We've gone through rough times and remain.
  Even if he happens to be a Pashto, he's already broken the Covenant by being a Muslim, and Muslims are not living up to the commandments that were given.  Too many things have moved away  from our belief that is the covenant.

As it turns out, he's a man with a strong political background.   He has connections to Islamic extremism and has a history of defending terrorist activities.  His new position will give him an unlimited access to money.  31% of people living in London are not happy with a Muslim in this position, though they have a history of tolerance for a diversified culture.  After all, England has been an empire and has taken in many cultures throughout the ages.
                                                                     
Zacharias Moussaoui, b: May 30, 1968 in France to parents from Morocco.
 French citizen 
who pleaded guilty in U.S. federal court
to conspiring to kill citizens of the United States as part of the September 11 attacks.
He is 
 serving 6 life sentences without parole at the Federal ADX Supermax prison in FlorenceColorado.
He's promised to be "the British Muslim who takes the fight to the extremists."  His reasoning is to be the Muslim to be in power so he can negotiate with radical Islamic activists.  Following 9/11, he was on the defense team as a lawyer protecting Zacharias Moussaoui, a member of Al Qaeda.
                                                                         
Azzam Tamimi, Palestinian activist b: 1955 Hebron, Judea.  At age 7,
 his family moved 
to Kuwait.  
Dr. Tamimi  a  Palestinian academic and political activist. He is currently the Chairman of Alhiwar TV Channel and is its Editor in Chief. He headed the Institute of Islamic Political Thought until 2008. Tamimi has written several books on Middle Eastern and Islamic politics, including "Power-Sharing Islam", "Islam and Secularism in the Middle East", Rachid Ghannouchi, Democrat within Islamismand Hamas: A History from Within.
Khan has also defended Dr. Azzam Tamimi. "Tamimi has stated that the War on Terror launched by the US and its allies in the wake of September 11 attacks is perceived by many in the Islamic world as a war on Islam.  He accused US President George W. Bush of attempting to stop terrorism through war, political oppression and violations of human rights, saying that this would not work and would instead have the opposite effect. 

 Khan's client was one who was another extremist who defended those attacking people creating cartoons offending Muslims.  He had told a crowd that publishing such cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad would "cause the world to tremble" and predicted "Fire...throughout the world if they don't stop."  This hasn't bothered Khan. He feels that was "flowery language."     Right there he breaks away from the Covenant of the Jewish people.  It wasn't Moses that caused the Israelites to tremble but G-d.  Moses was just the chosen but special old man who gave the 600,000 the message they were to live up to now.
                                                                     
Imam -Shaykh Suliman Gani-who goes against English law:WE PROVIDE PRACTICAL SUPPORT AND ADVICE TO HOUSEHOLDS DEVASTATED BY THE ARREST OF A FAMILY MEMBER UNDER UK ANTI-TERROR LEGISLATION.  Imam Suliman Gani demanded 'a serious, immediate apology' from the Prime Minister.
He's accused of being an ISIS supporter.  
Khan has ties with Suliman Gani, an imam in South London who urges women to be subservience to men.  He condemns homosexuality and gay marriage which does go back to biblical statements.  However, he also condemns organ transplants.  This imam calls for the founding of an Islamic state, so must be going along with ISIS.  There already happens to be 48 majority Muslim states in the world, and that is without a Palestine.  Khan has had him on his platform 9 times.

Yet in London, Khan was greeted with a standing ovation at his signing in ceremony on Friday.  Who was in attendance?  The city's police chief, Christian and Jewish leaders who think they are showing their broadness in accepting a Muslim, stars of stage and screen who should stick to reading their scripts and know nothing of current event's and their causes, are people who glibly back this scary mayor.  He could easily be worse than the non-native mayor of Malmo, Sweden, where so much anti-Semitism has been going on over too many years, now.

Sadiq Khan is excusing Muslim terrorism as some punishment from G-d Almighty on a non-Muslim population, as if people deserve it.  You just cannot excuse such terrorism.  He's getting away with it.  Now he's in a seat of power as a Mayor.
