12 August, just under 100 NIFI supporters join visiting Israel fans at the international football match between Israel and Northern Ireland.  Earlier in the day visiting fans enjoyed a tour of Stormont hosted by members of the Northern Ireland assembly, Robin Newton and Lord Brown. Later a NIFI XI took on and beat the Northern Ireland supporters club team at Clandeboye Park, Bangor in a friendly which made the TV news that evening. Both the Israeli and Irish FAs present NIFI with shirts signed by their squads for our  auction to aid cross community football programmes in Israel and Northern Ireland.

Shalom from NI Friends of Israel, Bangor, Aug 2009

January 2010 saw NIFI take up the cause for a sensible reform of the law regarding Universal Jurisdiction to prevent politically motivated abuses of this important principle. Amnesty International offered NIFI a rare apology after it seriously misrepresented NIFI's case.

March 2010 saw an incredible 490 people attend two NIFI events in the space of a fortnight. Over 220 made a stand against the Boycott by attending our meeting at the Park Avenue Hotel, addressed by Eric Lee of Trade Union Links with Israel and Palestine. Two weeks later, just under 300 turned up for a lecture on Anti-Semitism by academic and lawyer Anthony Julius.

NIFI lobbied hard in June 2010 both at Stormont and at Belfast city hall regarding motions about Gaza. Resolutions which condemned Israel but failed even to mention the Hamas  administration of Gaza were neither helpful nor balanced. The Stormont motion failed to get a majority and Belfast City Council called upon Hamas to enter into immediate negotiations for a permanent peace with the Jewish state.

NIFI's co chair, London-based Steven Jaffe, visited Londonderry and met with political and civic leaders, putting the "City of Culture's" boycott Israel policy under the spotlight.

Ex Kibbutz volunteer, Alban Maginness, member of the NI Assembly, described his kibbutz stint as "one of the formative influences of my political life". Speakers included Aya Sagi and Lydia Aisenberg from Israel.

Ian Paisley launches Northern Ireland Friends of Israel

March 19, 2009 § 6 Comments

In response to increasing boycott calls, by organisations such as the Irish Congress of Trade Unions, the Zionists have launched a Northern Ireland Friends of Israel lobby group.  It would be more aptly titled Northern Ireland Friends of Occupation, Apartheid, Racism, Massacre and Continued Colonisation.  From the Jerusalem Post:

    The Northern Ireland Friends of Israel marked its launch in Belfast last week with addresses from trade unionists, politicians and community leaders, including veteran unionist Rev. Ian Paisley.

    Paisley, "the controversial firebrand preacher turned peacemaker," in NIFI's words, spoke of the similarities between the struggles of Israel and of Northern Ireland against terrorism, prayed for peace in Jerusalem and called for peace in the Middle East akin to the past few years of calm Northern Ireland has enjoyed due to power sharing between his Democratic Unionist Party and the Irish Republican Sinn Fein.

    Paisley, who turns 83 on April 6, spoke at Great Hall Stormont on March 12, the seat of the Northern Ireland government, last Thursday. He is a British MP and a member of the Northern Ireland Assembly, and a former Northern Ireland cabinet member.

    More than 200 people attended, including Northern Ireland government ministers, British MPs, and members of the Northern Ireland Assembly. Also in attendance were members of the Belfast Jewish community and representatives of Christian groups.

    There has been a upswing in anti-Israel activity in Northern Ireland recently, according to attorney Steven Jaffe, the lead organizer of the launch, who represents Belfast on the Board of Deputies of British Jews.

    "Three local authorities passed resolutions boycotting Israel, as did the Irish Congress of Trade Unions," Jaffe said on Wednesday.

    Since the 1970s, the IRA has supported the Palestinians, "both regarding themselves as freedom fighters," he said.

    Despite this, "Northern Ireland is a very Bible-orientated community. There are more pilgrim tours from Northern Ireland than from any other part of the UK. The people here feel a very strong connection to Israel," he said.

    Protestant trade unionist Terry McCorran co-organized the event. He is a member of UNISON – The Public Service Union, the second largest trade union in the United Kingdom, with more than 1.3 million members.

    McCorran was inspired to help Israel after speaking with an Israeli trade unionist at a trade union's congress at which it was decided to boycott the Jewish state because of the recent military operations in Gaza, Jaffe said.

    "The NIFI are dedicated to fostering better relations between Northern Ireland and Israel," Jaffe said. "We want to make sure Israel has a fair airing in the local media, a major issue in the UK, and we want to engage meaningfully with anyone committed to a peaceful resolution of the Arab-Israeli conflict."

    "There are many parallels between the Northern Ireland peace process and that in the Middle East. The differences are key in addressing that conflict," he added. "This isn't just a Jewish initiative."

    Henry Grunwald, president of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, addressed the launch meeting, leaving "no doubt as to the nature of Hamas and its desire to destroy Israel."

    "Clearly Hamas would have to change greatly before it could be admitted into the peace process," he said.

    "The great thing about this event," Grunwald told The Jerusalem Post on Wednesday, "was that in the seat of power, a large almost entirely non-Jewish audience gathered in support of Israel. "

    "Good news about Israel in the UK should be broadcast as widely as the bad. The great news here in Northern Ireland is that we have launched a group of friends of Israel, which combines grassroots commitment with the support of political leaders," Jaffe said.

Paisley bastard, die you fucktard

Orangemen are what freemasons of the scottish rite are in the open. They practise the Zohar are are your predominant landed gentry of Norman/Scottish-Khazar origin (of the Hungarian/Viking Alpan-Drummond family) and are Rothschild's Chancellors. This is why we see the Queen as the patron of the council of christians and jews. Since 1910 and particularly 1948, this alliance has been eroded in an infight of Zoharite Cults like Orangemen and Jesuits, so Rothschild Talmudic sects like Chabad rise to the ascendency. After Tony Blair's coup de tat, The Talmudic faction are at the point of reversing the traditional relationship to a point where the zoharites are becoming if not are subservient.

This is why we see cromwell at first letting the dutch jews in. The intermarrying of jew banking families with landed gentry post industrial revolution. Working its way up the power ladder via freemasonry until the royal family were subsumed after 1910 and the death of edward the 7th and married into the mount batten jewish family and now prince william's wife kate middleton who is from the goldsmiths.

Paisley and his 'orange boys' are actually 'spiritual' descendents of Oliver Cromwell, the Dutch House of Orange and the Dutch Jews who who sent him to England to sow so much murder and misery and destroy the Catholic Church there....A true evil little weasel.  :twisted:

Funny thing about England: the Jews were expelled in the 13th century and the law is still on the books.

That's not FUNNY
1 law for us

Underscoring all this was the agricultural depression that set in in the late 1870s. Land, never a good investment compared to stocks and shares, now performed even worse, but no longer brought the political benefits it once held. Unsurprisingly, great landowners offloaded large amounts of land during the brief land-price boom after the First World War. And when they did, the usual purchasers were tenant farmers, as was the case with the Earl of Strathmore's Streatlam Castle estate in County Durham, sold in 1922 for £100,000. With the land divided up there was no need for the house, which was demolished in 1927.

The agricultural depression hit those with less ample acres, and no industrial or urban properties to support them, particularly hard. Falling prices led to declining rents and collapsing land values. For those who had lived well on borrowed money – as many landowners had during the nineteenth century when money was cheap – the squeeze was especially painful. Lower rents made it hard to meet interest payments and collapsing land prices meant that the value of the mortgage was in danger of exceeding that of the collateral against which it had been secured.

.......this is what i mean when i say the Zoharite Norman landed gentry tradition is being subsumed by the Talmudic German Ashkenazi Jews
