"Photo speaks a thousand words, doesn't it?": Selected Yuletide views

First, a filthy (aren't they all, though?) blood libel – (yes, it's attracting "Likes"!):


Second, this old chestnut, offered by Israel-bashing NGO War on Want in, and perhaps ever since, 2009.  ("No explanation required,"vicar? Ah, but there is, you know. Why's that SS insignia in the picture, for starters?):


Third, the sign on a front lawn in America (well done, that householder, and a very Merry Christmas to you!):

      Possibly, Nathan. But I wouldn't like to say so definitively. I have seen one photo doing the rounds that looks staged. But frankly it is the Christian blood libel that I resent. I do not resent the Palestinians.

    Concerning that disgusting postcard, since that security fence was put up to protect innocents from murder, I have always thought of it as letting Joseph and Mary through, and keeping at bay the thugs of Herod.

      It's great to be able to neutralise and disempower it in that way!

    Referring to War on Want as an "Israel-bashing NGO" is certainly not understating things. Their website is complely dominated by anti-Israel propaganda to the extent that it is not clear that they do anything other than produce ant-Israel propaganda. And it is worth noting also that the BBC's Comic Relief annually gives over a million pounds to War on Want to support this anti-Israel propaganda (the British people donating natually assume the money os going to help deprived children).

      Thanks, Edgar.
      Apparently Interpal helped largely to fund the "Wall" outside St James's Piccadilly.
