BRITAIN BANS LIKUD MEMBER, ALLOWS HEZBOLLAH

Britain Bans Likud Member, Allows Hizballah

Britain has barred Israeli Likud member Moshe Feiglin from entering the country—even though he wasn’t planning to: Feiglin banned from entering Britain.

The reason: The 7/7 London bombings.

The UK’s Home Office has banned Likud central committee member Moshe Feiglin from entering Britain.

A letter sent to Feiglin from the office of Home Secretary Jacqui Smith, and published in this week’s Jewish Chronicle, says the minister has excluded him from the country, even though he had no plans to visit.

“I am writing to advise you that following the London bombings in July 2005, the home secretary announced a list of particular activities that would normally lead to a person being excluded or deported from the UK on the grounds that their presence in the country is not conducive to the public good,” the letter reads.

The unacceptable activities listed in the two-page letter include “writing, producing, publishing or distributing material; public speaking including preaching; running a Web site and using a position of responsibility” to “foment or justify terrorist violence in furtherance of particular beliefs; seek to provoke others to terrorist acts; foment other serious criminal activity or seek to provoke others to serious criminal acts and foster hatred which might lead to inter-community violence in the UK.”

And once again, the British authorities’ justification for this absurd ban is that Feiglin publicly criticized Islam—which is now apparently enough to get the Brits to issue a ban. In other words, what we have here is yet another case of absolutely craven dhimmitude and appeasement.

But being a member of Hizballah, and spreading their antisemitic hatred and sick violent propaganda in Britain? No problem!

Earlier this month, British authorities granted permission to Ibrahim Mousawi, chief foreign new editor for Hizbullah’s Al-Manar television station in Lebanon, to enter the UK to participate in a number of political events.

Accused of anti-Semitism and incitement, and recently banned from entering Ireland, his television station aired a 29-part “documentary” in 2004 in which it depicted stereotypical Jews hatching a plot for Jewish world control and domination.

Following the 9/11 attacks, Al-Manar alleged that 4,000 Jewish employees did not turn up to work at the World Trade Center that day and that the attack was masterminded by Israel.
