SHOCK WARNING FROM UK POLICE: People publicly chanting pro-Palestinian slogans like “globalize the intifada” will now face immediate arrest, British authorities declared this week — directly linking the tougher stance to the bloodbath at Bondi Beach.
“We know communities are concerned about placards and chants such as ‘globalise the intifada’,” the London Metropolitan Police and Greater Manchester Police thundered in a joint statement. “Violent acts have taken place, the context has changed — words have meaning and consequence. We will act decisively and make arrests.”
The Bondi Beach Nightmare That Changed Everything
On Sunday, gunmen unleashed pure evil on families celebrating Hanukkah at Sydney’s iconic Bondi Beach, murdering 15 people in cold blood. One attacker, Sajid Akram, was killed by police. His 24-year-old son Naveed has been charged with terrorism and 15 counts of murder from his hospital bed.
This atrocity follows another deadly antisemitic attack just two months ago — a Syrian-origin gunman targeting a Manchester synagogue on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.
UK forces have already ramped up protection around synagogues, Jewish schools, and community centers nationwide. Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar blasted Australia for allowing a “surge” in antisemitism since October 7, 2023, pointing directly at protest slogans like “Globalize the Intifada,” “From the River to the Sea,” and “Death to the IDF.”
Free Speech or Public Safety? The Line Has Been Redrawn
While prosecutors previously claimed these phrases didn’t cross legal thresholds, Met Commissioner Mark Rowley and Manchester Chief Constable Stephen Watson now promise to “recalibrate to be more assertive” amid escalating threats.
The intifadas — violent Palestinian uprisings from 1987-1993 and 2000-2005 — left thousands dead. Critics warn glorifying them today is nothing short of incitement to genocide.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer, whose wife is Jewish, condemned the Bondi rampage as “sickening” and unequivocally called it “an antisemitic terrorist attack against Jewish families.”
As arrests begin rolling in, one question burns: Has the West finally woken up to the deadly poison of radical hate speech — or is this the beginning of authoritarian overreach?
AFP reports: People publically chanting pro-Palestinian calls to “globalise the intifada” will be arrested, UK police warned Wednesday, saying the “context had changed” in the wake of the Bondi Beach massacre.
“We know communities are concerned about placards and chants such as ‘globalise the intifada’,” the London Metropolitan and Greater Manchester police forces said in a statement.
“Violent acts have taken place, the context has changed — words have meaning and consequence. We will act decisively and make arrests.”
Gunmen killed 15 people on Sunday when they fired into crowds at a Hanukkah festival on Sydney’s Bondi Beach.
One, Sajid Akram, was shot and killed by police. His son Naveed, 24, was charged in hospital on Wednesday with more than 50 counts, including terrorism and 15 murders.
The Bondi Beach attack came some two months after a gunman of Syrian origin attacked a synagogue in the English city of Manchester. Two people died along with the gunman in the October 2 attack on the holiest day of the Jewish calendar, Yom Kippur.
UK police have already stepped up security around the country’s synagogues, Jewish schools and community hubs.
Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar urged Canberra to act against a “surge” in antisemitism after Sunday’s attack.
In a post on X, Saar said since the October 7, 2023 attack and the subsequent war in Gaza “there has been a surge in antisemitism in Australia, including violent incitement against Israel and Jews”.
He referred to slogans heard at pro-Palestinian protests, such as “Globalise the Intifada”, “From the River to the Sea, Palestine Will be Free”, and “Death to the IDF,” the Israeli military.
While Britain’s prosecutors have said the phrases do not meet the threshold for prosecutions, “in the escalating threat context, we will recalibrate to be more assertive,” Met Commissioner Mark Rowley and the Manchester Chief Constable Stephen Watson said in their joint statement.
The intifada refers to Palestinian uprisings against Israel. The first raged from 1987 to 1993, while the second flared between 2000 and 2005.
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, whose wife is Jewish, denounced the weekend gun rampage in Australia as “sickening”, saying it was “an antisemitic terrorist attack against Jewish families”.
