'There is little which is Jewish about Israel': Haim Bresheeth on antisemitism and Gaza
Thousands will be marching in London on Saturday to mark the Nakba, the ethnic cleansing of Palestine in 1948, and protest more than two and a half years of Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza. Among the marchers will be Haim Bresheeth-Zabner, the British-Israeli author and filmmaker and son of Holocaust survivors.
Nearby, Tommy Robinson's far right Unite the Kingdom march will also be taking place, with fears of possible violence and clashes given the pro-Israel and anti-Muslim views of Robinson's followers.
Bresheeth will be among many Jewish people who regularly attend pro-Palestine marches in London. The Jewish bloc on the Palestine marches has been prominent from early on and has been welcomed by thousands of others in open solidarity, Bresheeth says.
"I have never felt more welcome. Ask any Jews who took part in the marches, we are never more accepted, or more part of British public life than at those demonstrations, at which there is no violence whatsoever."
