Zionism in Critical Condition.

A UK based current affairs think tank, has reported an unprecedented shift away from Zionism amongst Jews, in a move, which could mark the end for Israel's long-standing reliance on the unquestioning support of Jewry in Britain. 'Redress Information & Analysis'; were contacted by whistleblowers on 'The Board of Deputies of British Jews', who sought to highlight a crisis of conscience pitting Jewry's Talmudic loyalty to Israel, against their allegiance to the universal testaments of human decency.  

Speaking on the condition of anonymity, one employee summarized what they perceived to be the main issue facing Jews in Britain today: "Our support for Israel, especially its attack on Gaza in 2008-09, is creating ruptures in the wider Jewish community in Britain and placing institutions such as ours under unbearable pressure."

Another whistleblower, also on The 'BDBJ', went further; stating "...Israel purports to speak on behalf of us as Jews. Many in our community are telling us that we therefore have a special responsibility to condemn Israel's violations of human rights. They say that we should distance ourselves from Israel and be the first to condemn its policies and actions towards the Palestinian people. A small but growing minority – a minority that is growing exponentially, I hasten to add – tell us that we should take the lead in calling for the boycott of Israel until it begins to behave as a civilized and responsible member of the international community".

The admissions come on the eve of an announcement by the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in which Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman is to summon Israeli ambassadors and consuls from around the world, to attend a crisis meeting in Tel Aviv. And though its' official aims are said to include the facilitation of "...direct dialogue, mutual updates on major diplomatic issues, and a discussion of action plans to deal with the challenges awaiting Israel in the international arena in the coming year, including the Iranian threat" many see it as an exercise in damage control. A last ditch effort to save face or plan a PR offensive, in light of international aversion to Rothschild Israeli polices, worldwide protests against the siege of Gaza, expulsion of Zionist envoys, an exposé of Israeli lobbyists in Britain and revulsion at the grim discovery of an international organ stealing scandal involving Zionist Jews and prominent Israeli Rabbis.

"If this hostility, even aversion, had only been shown towards the Jews at one period and in one country, it would be easy to unravel the limited causes of this anger, but this race has been hated by all peoples among whom it has established itself. It must be therefore, since the enemies of the Jews belonged to the most diverse races, lived in countries very distant from each other that the general cause of anti-Semitism has always resided in Israel itself and not in those who have fought against Israel."
