London Store Removes Kosher Food To 'Support Gaza'

Click here to watch: London Supermarket Removes Kosher Food Out of Fear of Violent BDS Protestors A British supermarket chain is at the center of an anti-Semitism row, after a Jewish shopper found that the Kosher section had been completely removed, and was told by the store manager that Kosher food has been taken down because "We support Gaza." Anti-Israel demonstrators had picketed the branch of Sainsbury's in Holborn, central London, part o fa pattern of aggressive calls to boycott Jewish-made Israeli goods - calls that often spilled over into violence. In one incident Saturday, anti-Israel activists trashed a Tesco store in Hodge Hill while waving Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) flags, throwing produce on the ground and closing the establishment for several minutes. Likewise protests outside Tesco stores in Greater Manchester, Blackburn and Luton were reported.  The Sainsbury's move to empty the Kosher section was discovered that same Saturday by Jewish actor Colin Appleby, who posted a photo of the empty shelves on his Facebook page. Appleby recounted what he had been told by the store manager, triggering a firestorm of criticism with many noting that a significant proportion of the Kosher goods were not even from Israel, and that the move amounted to pure anti-Semitism as it clearly targeted Jewish shoppers. Journalist Jonathan Sacerdoti, who is also a Sainsbury's customer, called Sainsbury's on Sunday to register his shock over the incident, to which he was told the store decided to remove the Kosher goods out of fear that protesters would "take Kosher products off the shelf" and wreak havoc.  "Why is it considered a good reaction to remove products of interest to Jews from the shelves when there’s going to be some sort of violent intervention rather than to stop the violent intervention?" asked Sacerdoti. "If I told you I was going to go into the store and start trashing Halal products from the shelves, would you remove them all?" "Of course not," responded the Sainsbury's telephone operator. After being pressed by Sacerdoti she refused to call the incident a "mistake," later refusing to comment on her statement that the store would not remove Halal products when faced with an identical threat.

It appears that the the Radical Islamists have the upper hand because they they are willing to do ANYTHING to support their wicked cause. We will see if those who support Israel have the same conviction and stamina.
