Solidarity with Antifa in London today.

Jewdas

We spent yesterday's Shabbat trying to oppose Neo-Nazis marching through Hackney. The police kettled us and politely shepherded the fascists through the town. ...In Holocaust Memorial Week, the sight of police kettling Jews to help fascists march should give everyone pause.

Eddie Stampton and his Nazi clan did not reach Stamford Hill, as they'd wanted to. Instead, they were shepherded by Hackney Metropolitan Police down towards a local mosque. Who in their right mind thought that was a good idea?

There was not a single mention of this fascist demonstration from the Board of Deputies, Community Security Trust or the Jewish Chronicle. Jewdas and our allies were the only Jewish organisations out to oppose the fascists.

How can a fringe academic conference in Southampton attract such ire from our "communal bodies" but a march of actual *Nazis* goes ignored? How can small pro-Palestine demonstrations be considered a threat to the community, but white supremacists aren't worthy of comment?

We would like to extend our gratitude and solidarity to South London AntiFa, North London AntiFa, and London AntiFascists for their support. Some people know who the enemy is. Others, apparently, do not.
