Israel - Gaza War Day 8: It's starting to look a lot like Murder.

With Israeli forces stepping up their bombardment and death-toll on Gaza fast rising to 500 protests have broken out across the UK calling for an end to the the violence. Normally these demonstrations are attended by these guys;



As you can probably tell from the photograph they're a little bit Jewish. So Jewish in fact they part of a Orthodox community in North London. Aside from the usual pressures that Jewish and Muslim communities in the UK undergo every time time there's yet another Arab-Israeli war this community has had to endure the murder of one of their own. On New Years day neighbours discovered the bound and gagged body of an 83 year old in her locked house in Stanford Hill, North London. Although it could just be a massive coincidence that some very talented burglars murdered a woman in one of Britain's oldest Jewish neighbourhoods during the Israel-Gaza war this is the stuff that conspiracy theories are made of.

It could have been an anti-Semitic attack carried out by the Iranians as part of Hamas' "Day of rage against Zionist Targets worldwide". It could have been Mossad acting to silence a double agent. It could have been carried out by a CIA team attempting to smear the Iranians. Sadly though the murder was carried out by Britain's own MI5. If the use of their bound body in burglary gone wrong signature wasn't evidence enough they also took the trouble of owning up to it with a story about a toxic cloud drifting across the midlands, after originating in a town called Langley. The reasons why MI5 carried out this assassination are threefold in descending order of importance;

1. A story about a woman in her 80's being tortured and murdered in her own home by burglar's drags up painful memories for my grandmother making her and my life that little bit more stressful.
2. It allows MI5 to flood the normally closed and secretive community with police and other officers carrying out door to door enquiries.
3. It creates tension and disruption designed to discourage Jews from attending today's demonstrations. They can then flood the mainly Muslim demonstrators with Hamas and Hezbollah merchandise making it appear a pro-Islam demonstration. By polarising protests like this it makes it much easier to portray the Palestinian - Israeli conflict as some sort of Biblical battle between the forces of good and evil rather the slightly childish land dispute it really is.

Of course by assassinating a Jew Britain has also managed to send out the message; "Britain likes killing Jews!" It makes you wonder who is really running Britain's security services because surely they can't be so stupid they actually want to see the country implode?
