Complaint made to council over former soldier still rabid for Israel despite its murder of British ex-servicemen
A former soldier at a ‘military fair’ in Cambridge has shamed himself and the uniform he claims to be so proud of, by ranting at a peaceful protester that he hopes either British or Israeli forces kill the man’s family in Gaza:
The Israeli military deliberately murdered at least three British ex-servicemen last year, when it bombed – in three separate and intentional attacks spread across a mile and a half – the World Central Kitchen aid convoy in which they were travelling:
On the same day, it murdered at least five UN World Food Programme workers – then murdered at least three more WCK aid workers a few months later in a similar attack. All the attacked vehicles were clearly marked as aid trucks.
Yet the ‘hope they die’ thug is ‘proud’ of himself and his rabid support for genocidal Israel.
A formal complaint has been made to Cambridge City Council. Press Justice Project trustee Lisa Moorish said:
People are truly disturbed to see death threats made to a civilian’s family in Gaza on British soil, by a UK armed forces veteran.
We demand an investigation into this incident, and the perpetrator dealt with swiftly, by way of strong condemnation of this extremely threatening, abhorrent behaviour, and a ban from your future armed forces veteran events.
Three of our British veterans were killed by the IOF, [which] received no…condemnation from our government.
Israel is no ally to the UK, and we do not want our soldiers sent to die for a foreign nation.
Nor our taxes spent on arming a state committing genocide.
The consequences of the UK government’s and media’s demonisation of peaceful anti-genocide protest, their contempt for Palestinian life and their pandering to the racist right, are already manifesting.

I contacted the british army just yesterday about online abuse from a “veteran” of murder.
Zionists started by murdering 784 British people mainly service men and women. I will link to the Oxford soldiers museum it is really good. https://www.sofo.org.uk/obli-stories-palestine/
The US and the UK are examples of States descending into fascism.
Both Trump and Starmer keep the pretensions of democracy while at the same time subverting the State democratic institutions.
It is a subversion that Trump waged war on Iran without seeking consent from Congress. That on Trumps orders migrants attending interviews with ICE were detained with the purpose of being summarily deported without a Court Order.
It is a subversion of the democratic institutions too that the British State is trying to proscribe Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation, for engaging in non violent direct action.
It is a subversion to brand Bob Vylan as antisemitic for chanting a cry against the IDF, no mention of Jews in the chant, just a cry against the military of a fascistic, pariah state that is committing war crimes and genocide and subjecting to starvation a civilian population.
Labour members of the PLP should be aware that they are right now members of a fascist party. If they have any honour and regards for democracy they should stand up against Starmer and most of the cabinet and have them thrown out of the Labour Party.
Labour MPs thinking of rebelling and voting against the government tomorrow must NOT allow themselves to be bought off. They may never get a better chance to get rid of the moral vacuum sitting in No 10 that is dragging this country into the shitter.
Either that or some public-spirited member of the public, maybe with terminal cancer, will have to do it for them!
I think we should hear the view of the likes of the shaved afghan hound and failed businessman chris philp, or the failed ex-home secretary *fuck knows how or why but i digress) and expenses blagger jackie smith as to whether this is a HATE CRIME, just like they were shrieking on the news this morning regarding bob vylan.
As for fat lad….he was terrifying. Looks like the only thing he ever fought was the urge to eat loads of doughnuts…and lost.
The political & media talking heads currently giving Bob Vylan publicity that money can’t buy (the utter fuckwits!) are practically the ONLY people who give a shit . The rest of the country would likely support them, given the polling figures indicating well over half the country is disgusted with Israel.
Maria is correct in pointing out BV said nothing about Jews at all in their allegedly “anti-Semitic” speech from the Glastonbury stage. The outrage is very entertaining, nonetheless. (Is that Malcolm McLaren I can hear laughing?)
Despite being dropped today by their booking agency, the other agencies will waste no time in beating a path to their door. Record sales will skyrocket, gigs will sell out in a heartbeat and this will likely be Career-Move of the Year!
Starmer & co score yet another massive own-goal. They won’t see the year out.
50 years – my arse!
Haha, yeah.
Reminded me of the Paul Whitehouse character ‘Archie’ from The Fast Show:
“Fifty years, man and boy…’ardest game in the world that army is…’
I’ve just spotted that young lad, on one end of the fleg. Why do they all have skinny little legs sticking out of baggie shorts? Shameful! 😀
Yes this lumpen veteran should be investigated.
He should also be shown British newspaper reports of Zionist extremists killing British soldiers in Palestine (working class lads who were just trying to keep the peace) in the late 1940’s.
The Zionists then hung their bodies from trees!
Oh and the same Zionist fanatics during the 2WW contacted the Nazi’s offering to fight for them in The Middle East whilst
12,000 Palestinians volunteered to fight alongside British troops.
The Zionists then hung their bodies from trees!
…And then booby-trapped their bodies.
The subhuman responsible for that sickening depravity was menachem begin – later israeli PM.
The attitude displayed does not come from nowhere. You see it every day throughout what passes for Western culture, its decision makers and narrative spinners which are becoming extremely deranged in trying to extinguish any alternative voice.
Whether it’s this sorry excuse for a squaddie, a talking head media prostitute or a bought and paid for politician, the message is essentially the same: there are no rules or laws any more at any level beyond the self-serving convenience of the postmodernist ‘Rules Based Order’. Which boils down to do as we say, or you will die – either as an individual or as a society.
As Norman Finkelstein observes, International law is dead. The class struggle is alive.
Its odds on that the jerk reads the Sun.
