Paul Flynn - The Jewish insult.

I was going to comment on Paul Flynn's slurs but feel that this article sums the matter up perfectly:

I have to admit,Paul Flynn MP totally disgusts me with his outrageous, and lousy, repetitive propaganda type statements.
If you hadn't heard the news about this MP, the full story is here http://www.thecommentator.com/article/716/paul_flynn_mp_s_untrammelled_a...
Its is like the same old diatribe we hear time and time again. That if you are Jewish, or indeed a Zionist Jew, you cannot be a loyal citizen of this country. In fact, you are not worthy of even living in this country.

He apparently has apologised. Like Mel Gibson did.

Well Mr Flynn, I was always shocked that when I attended a wedding or a simcha in the UK, that there would be a prayer prior to dinner and the singing of the Royal national anthem.

I remember asking my mother, why that would be considering it is not a state occasion. I was told it is because as Jewish people, we are grateful that we as Jews were accepted in this society, and for that we pray for our Royal family and for the country we live in.

I wonder if Mr Paul Flynn MP has ever sung the royal national anthem prior to a family function he attends? I doubt it very much.

Mr Flynn obviously has a problem with Zionists. That someone cant support Israel, and yet be a worthy citizen of his or her home nation.

I wonder if he has commented with regards to the Muslim community, or the Indian community on this? Or indeed the Chinese, Italian, Latino, Black community with the same questions?

In fact Mr Paul Flynn, maybe we should question your loyalty to us the electorate, considering you probably only would feel a certain affinity to those who are not Jewish or indeed Pro Israel.

Hi, I'm part-Jewish and I lived in Newport all my life and I was really frustrated by the ease at which Paul Flynn seems to have gotten away with voicing what was very clearly a blatantly anti-semitic and racist set of assumptions. If he'd criticised the appointment of someone to the post of ambassador to Israel because they had a record of being biased towards or against Israel then fair enough. However, what Flynn says is something totally different entirely as he has made it clear that he doesn't believe Jewish people to have 'roots in the UK' and to be as authentically and equally British as he thinks himself to be. Since there's been a Jewish community in the UK since at least the time of Cromwell then one wonders how far back Mr Flynn believes a person has to trace their ancestry back in the UK until in his eyes they can be considered British. His line of thought and his imperialistic and racist 'gone native' jibe sound more like something that would have emanated from the mouth of BNP fuhrer Nick Griffin. Such talk should also make many of his constituents here in Newport feel totally alienated as the person who is supposed to be representing us is claiming that a large majority of us do not even belong here because we come from 'ethnic' lineages that cannot be traced back at least 350 years in Britain(!) I also have a nasty feeling that Flynn decided to single out the Jews because he knows that there aren't that many of us in Newport and therefore calculated that it's a small loss to him if he trashes us. Worse still, I wonder if he felt that he could ingratiate himself to certain larger ethnic communities in Newport by attacking Jewish people as he wrongly and, of course, very insultingly, assumed that they would be anti-semitic? Can't believe all the congratulation he's getting from people and the fact that he mumbled some sort of half-arsed apology to his parliamentary colleagues for his anti-semitic slurs yet he either couldn't be bothered or felt it beneath him to apologise to any of his Jewish constituents whom he may have hurt and offended! Yet every time Flynn's anti-semitism is brought up in the Argus some of his cyber-bodyguards instantly accuse you of being pro-Zionist when Flynn's comments have nothing to do with Israel which is just an excuse for his and their plain, old fashioned racism and anti-semitic bigotries.

Btw...Flynn really needs to take a trip to some of the military cemetries in Belgium and France and see the amount of Jewish stars on the headstones of the soldiers, air force personnel and sailors there if he wants to see people who have really served and sacrificed all for their country and for the freedom of speech that people like him abuse by casting slurs of disloyalty on those who gave their lives for the liberty that he wastes!
