Guardian Editor Rubs Elbows With Hamas Propagandists
October 4, 2010 11:04 by BackSpin EditorThis is a photo of Michael White, The Guardian’s associate editor, along with MP Sir Gerald Kaufman (wearing the Palestinian scarf) at a meeting organised by Labour Friends of Palestine and the Middle East and Middle East Monitor (MEMO).
It says a lot about White and his paper that he rubs elbows with Hamas propagandists. Harry’s Place points out:
MEMO is the pro-Hamas propagandas operation of Daud Abdullah. He is the former deputy secretary general of the Muslim Council of Britain, a signatory of the infamous Istanbul Declaration (pdf), and a fanatical Israel hater. Abdullah’s deputy at MEMO is Ibrahim Hewitt, chairman of Interpal, another British charity that serves Hamas.
On MEMO’s pages you will find work such as this foul accusation of dual loyalty against the British ambassador to Israel, support for blood libel tales, and piece after piece by Abdel Bari Atwan, the journalist who has said he would “dance in Trafalgar Square” if Israel were annihilated by Iran in a nuclear strike.
What kind of company is this to keep?
Don’t be too shocked with White’s associations. Last year, White told the BBC that the IDF “murders people” because “they don’t like their political style,” then offered an an utterly unconvincing defense.

……………………………
Aren’t those at MEMO the ones guilty of dual loyalty for their support of hamas? In fact it isn’t even dual loyalty but treason that British citizens are supporting jihadists.

The egregious Kaufman is the guy who tried to buy a TV for $15,000 on UK parliamentary expenses last year.
When this was refused as a ludicrous claim he admitted it was ‘a bit daft’.
So much for his judgement.

Sad, sick and stupid !! Will some people never learn…mass manipulation was the cause of Hitlers successful attempts at wiping out half the Jewish community. I’m sure these right on palestinian, anti Israel supporters would be appauled at being compared to Hitlerites. They think they’re so liberal and anti- Nazi….well, they are the new Nazis being born- nothing new. Anti semites of the 21st century…we’re all wise after the event…no?

Hi there, stragglers.
I’m afraid I don’t follow sites like this one, so i didn’t know about this little gem above, it was drawn to my attention after I urged everyone to calm down – it’s now March 2012 – after Jenny Tonge shot off another foot.
Gosh, how it must depress people who feel so beleaguered that they need to write/read this sort of stuff. I mean, I do know why some Israelis and their more ardent supporters abroad do feel so embattled, but I also know some who shrug and say “ignore the crazies.”
So I just signed on to tease you in a retaliatory way….. try this one….White mixing with a rough crowd again. Shocking, eh?
