The recorded attacks against Jews and Muslims are up 1,353% and 140% respectively, police said.
Hate crimes against Jews and Muslims have skyrocketed in the British capital amid the dramatic escalation of the Israel-Hamas conflict, the Metropolitan Police revealed.
“Regrettably, despite the increased presence of officers we have seen a significant increase in hate crime across London,” the Met said in a statement on Friday. They added that 218 anti-Semitic offenses recorded between October 1 and 18 as opposed to 15 during the same time last year. In the meantime, the Islamophobic offenses rose from 42 to 101.
“These [figures] represent percentage rises of 1,353% and 140% respectively,” police said.
A total of 21 people have been arrested, including a man suspected of defacing posters of Israelis captured by the Palestinian militants and another man suspected of drawing Islamophobic graffiti on bus stops.
The Met stressed that they were working closely with both the Jewish and Muslim communities to “provide reassurance and to investigate offenses in the vicinity of faith schools, places of worship and in those communities where we know the levels of concern are highest.”
The Community Security Trust (CST), a charity that is aimed at protecting British Jews, said on Friday that it recorded at least 533 anti-Semitic incidents since the fighting in the Middle East erupted on October 7, which is the highest ever total within a 14-day period.
The surge of hate crimes was also reported in other countries, including Germany, Canada, and the US, where President Joe Biden urged everyone on Friday to condemn both anti-Semitism and Islamophobia.
On October 7, Hamas and allied militant groups attacked Israel, prompting retaliatory airstrikes on the Gaza Strip. Over 1,400 Israelis and more than 4,000 Palestinians have been killed in the fighting.
in 1948, immigrant jews attacked palestinians, murdered and raped their women to steal their land and form a government of apartheid. Israhell is only for jews.
2023, it is till going on with what is called ” landgrab” by israeli

“Thou shalt not bear false witness.”
In 1948, about 780 thousand Palestinians were removed from what would become Israel. All but 160 thousand were paid for their land: 160 thousand refused to be paid and assumed they would be back in no time (which did not happen). About the same number of Jews were thrown out of Arab countries and had to leave their houses: The Jews were not paid for their loss of houses.
The Palestinians are always moaning on about some “right of return”. However, what about the Jews right of return to live safely and freely in the Arab countries that they were thrown out of?
Other Arab states, for example Syria and Lebanon hate Palestinians as evidenced by the fact they are kept in camps and “encouraged” not to mix with the populations and are denied citizenship after 75 years. If you want to understand hate and contempt, then look no further than how the Arabs treat each other.
Many of the Arab leaders know that the Arab / Muslim populations are quite restive and use the “hatred of the Jews” in order to unify their population. Think about how sad that actually is: Leaders using hatred against the other in order to unify their people. If it was not for the unity of hatred, then there would be many more Sunni and Shia killing each other, because they believe each other to be apostates.
