Thursday’s incident came as the community observed Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar
Police said they had shot a man suspected in a stabbing and car-ramming that injured four people at a synagogue Thursday in the northern English city of Manchester on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.
Greater Manchester Police said in a series of posts on X that a major incident was declared after a member of the public reported that they had “witnessed a car being driven toward members of the public” and that one “man had been stabbed” near the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue in Crumpsall, an area known for its large Jewish community.
The sooner Netanyahu is stopped, the sooner this wave of antisemitism simmers down.
So far we don’t have any information on the attacker’s motive. Right-wing antisemitism is more commonly violent and isn’t going to be impacted by a change of leadership in Israel.
Antisemitism has spiked globally as the Zionists have progressed their genocide.
There’s a clear link.
Which is not necessarily related to this crime. Antisemitism is not a unified ideology where decreasing the prevalence of one form will impact the safety of Jewish people from another.
Currently conflating antisemitism with antizionism is the only defense the Zionist party of Isreal has left to distract from their genicide.
So anyone continuing to push this narrative while trying to ignore the genocide is really suspicious IMO
As an Ashkenazi jew it makes me sick how my people are used as a political tool to protect genocidal fascist religious extremists.
