The play is not about Israel but instead tells the story of a Jewish man preserving his family’s traditions in a village in imperial Russia at the turn of the 20th century. The performance on Monday went ahead as planned after the protest at the cafe.

“This is a performance of Fiddler on the Roof,” they wrote alongside footage of the protesters. “So, if you’re busy condemning racist demonstrations, but not this, & you don’t think they should be prosecuted, stop preening yourself. You’re happy with racism – it’s only the target that you worry about.”

    It would be disingenuous to claim that antisemitism isn’t being weaponised by Zionists and their allies to muzzle free speech.

      Both are true, so why do you seem to suggest they are mutually exclusive?

          My definition of truth tries to be objective, not subjective to wanting to dismiss something because Corporate media pushes it.

            How many articles have you seen from mainstream media suggesting that anti semitism accusations are just cover for silencing Pro Palestinian voices?

            Now compare that to the number of articles saying that Palestinians supporters in the West are Hamas supporters, hate marches, anti semites and Iranian backed.

            The narrative is hard to miss once you spot it.
