Threatening free speech

July 28, 2026

Israel and Zionists are intent on suppressing free speech and stopping criticism of Israel as an apartheid state intent on the ethnic cleansing and genocide of Palestinians. The tragedy of the Royal Commission on Antisemitism and Social Cohesion is that it likely to endorse this suppression. It has already endorsed the toxic IHRA definition of antisemitism. Will the Commission, incidentally, criticise Israel and Zionists for their own antsemitism – labelling and seeking to deligitimise Jews who criticise the ethnic cleansing and genocide of Palestinians as self-hating Jews? It will not be surprising if the Commission implicitly or explicitly endorses Israel and Zionists denying apartheid, ethnic cleansing and genocide through suppressing free speech. If it does, then, the Commission is a mockery but, then, that is what the PM sought - to appease Israel and Zionists. Unfortunately, for the PM nothing will appease Israel and the Zionists.
