I filmed this brief video of a lone Jewish man, Joseph, confronting the anti-Semitic bike riders of The Big Ride Palestine at Speakers’ Corner in London. I later interviewed him. When these cyclists came, NOT ONE PERSON would take Joseph’s side. Only I did. At times I had to put my body between him and others so that he wouldn’t be attacked. You’ll notice a gold black cap in the video. The man wearing it was particularly aggressive toward Joseph. When the cyclists left, I led him out of the park and bought him a soda and sat with him for 20 minutes or so until he had calmed down enough. The Jew-hatred over here is rampant.

I don’t recall any of this sort of thing 25-30 years ago. It may be a coincidence, but 25-30 years ago I also hardly recall any mosques burkas or men in pyjamas, and the only women in headscarves working-class women in the north appearing on ‘Coronation Street’. Now, what could possible have changed?

True, Jayell–this has all happened very quickly. It is hard sometimes to realize that just a few years ago Islam was not a threat in the West at all.
Westman says
I could be wrong yet it appears that underlying motivation of the current anti-semitism is fear of having to pay any personal price, such as serving as military in a war, to maintain current affluence and hedonism.
This “biker” demonstration is not to raise salaries or extend month-long vacations and other benefits subsidized by not paying a full NATO obligation. No, it’s to destroy a small nation whose presence and insistence to survive might cause a war in which these “bikers” would have a personal cost.
How many of these bikers are going to the Muslim markets or visiting no-go areas in their own community yet claim to sympathize with a “victim” group whose goal is to annihilate the Jewish nation?
They are essentially cowards who think, in a world where human competition is the fundamental instinct, that the hedonism can be maintained without an inescapable cost; that there is no competing ideology or nation which desires to take what they have and supress them.
Well, like Sweden, party on; the Western World is just one big Studio 54 – until it suddenly isn’t. There is a old “forbidder” on the scene that will make certain the party ends. When it does, the enemy won’t be Jews and some heads will hang in embarrassment.

What a shame a lone Jewish man has to face a heartless scenario like this. The Jews have more grace in their fingernail cuttings.

Actually, as I recall, those uniforms were embroidered with a crescent moon — the emblem of the most supremacist, totalitarian, belligerent, anti-Semitic and hate-filled ideology on Earth — the ideology of “Submission.”

Anti-Semitism in Europe is hardly new and certainly isn’t the exclusive property of the left. It can be traced back to the Roman Empire and has thrived unchecked ever since. It thrived when Jews lived in cramped poverty stricken ghettos or isolated towns (shtetls), when Jews were prosperous and all times in between.. The left, the right and the middle can all claim ownership.
It’s typical that while Europe sinks into a muslim wasteland that non-muslim Europeans see the Jews within and the tiny state of Israel as issues worth getting their tits in a knot over. It would be no different without the leftists.

The Great Leftard Bike ride continues … to the Land That Never Was.
“palestine”,home of the “palestinians”.
“We are all Palestinians” scream the intellectually-challenged Leftards.
Sure you are folks,sure you are.
Cycle on,why don’t you?.. and feel free to stop off and visit Narnia and Atlantis while en route..
For “You are all Narnians now”:You see Narnia, like “palestine” is a completely made-up fantasy land:unlike ISRAEL, which is REAL and is the LEGITIMATE,GOD-GIVEN{say not “allah”!..}LAND OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE.
I’m sorry but Leftards are just not intelligent enough to understand that.

Cowards. They’re all cowards. The only one w/ courage is the man that spoke up, & the man protecting him. Sick to death of antisemetic propaganda. Nearly everyone I speak to about this matter is blaming the Jews for the Islamic State Bedouin Supremacist need to invade the west, as a Jewish conspiracy to destroy white culture, they then support the sharia Islamic state. I’ve come to believe that Islam is the doctrine if evil, satan, & the antichrist. The supporters of the antichrist ideology are actually under the influence of the power of the antichrist. They’ll be submitted, or become a follower – hell most of them already are!

The author of this article defended a Jew. Very dangerous. Very brave. It’s always risky to step in like that, when there is a hateful mob. I’m glad he did.
