(Daily Express-UK) Stephen Pollard - The Daily Express exposed a plot by the Palestine Action group to shut down London's Stock Exchange. The plot is a perfect illustration of the wider moral inversion which has taken hold, and which shows why the battle Israel is now fighting against Hamas matters to everyone. Now the threat comes not just from outsiders like Iran and its proxies such as Hamas and the Houthis, but from within our own countries. It's not just from the radical Islamists but from their Socialist allies - what has been termed the "red-green alliance" of opposition to Western values. You can see this on the so-called Free Palestine marches in London most Saturdays. As well as the usual chant of "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" - which means the elimination of Israel and its Jews - there were antisemitic posters (one had a coffee cup and the accusation that Jews were drinking Palestinian blood, the classic "blood libel") and speeches. On Saturday there was a new chant: "Yemen, Yemen, make us proud, turn another ship around" - a reference to the Houthis' attacks on shipping in the Red Sea. What, you might wonder, do extremist Islamist rebels in Yemen have to do with a Free Palestine march, bar that they claim to be undertaking piracy to stop the war in Gaza?
