Our questioning of an Israeli General secretly visiting London yesterday is all over the Israeli media.

Did you know that Keir Starmer kicked out left-wing Jewish members of the Labour Party who did not support his Zionist leanings? The entire anti-semitic smear campaign against Jeremy Corbyn was totally fabricated.
