Inside Britain's Israeli Lobby

  • eersandbeers


    It was a piece done by a British new program uncovering the influence of the British Israeli lobby. I doubt many will, but hopefully people take the time to watch the startling piece.

    It talks about how British politicians are constantly rewarded with trips to Israel and their pockets lined with thousands of dollars for taking pro-Israeli stances. It also discusses how Israeli groups label anyone who openly criticizes them as anti-Semitic, and tries to censor news stories from reaching the public. This includes an emergency appeal for aid in Gaza by the BBC.

    Another important note in the documentary was to point out how leaders who recieve money from the Israeli lobbies are the ones who support Israeli policies the most. Regular Jews in Britian, and even Israeli, are highly critical of the Israeli government's policies.

    The most eye-opening part of the documentary was a Rabbi who said Israeli is clearly an apartheid state. He describes how the policies are clearly discriminatory in nature, and illegal by international standards.
