Shocker as Labour Zionist Stands in Large Muslim Area

1:23 pm, Sun 6 Sep 2009
Luciana Berger, Director of Labour Friends of Israel
MPACUK comment: How many Muslims in Camden will vote blindly for the Labour Party this year? How many Muslims in Camden will vote for innocent Muslims in Palestine to be massacred? How many Muslims in Camden will vote for Israel to get away with whatever they please? Hopefully the answer to all three questions is none.

Muslims in the UK are best placed to resolve the crisis suffered by Muslims in Palestine. So use your vote wisely at the next election by voting for the candidate that fulfils your needs as a Muslim here in the UK as well as the needs of the Muslims all around the world. Vote smart.

Luciana Berger is a well-known Zionist who has supported the cause of Israel for many years and is currently the director of Labour Friends of Israel. Moreover, on her website Ms Berger has, as one of her "favourite sites" the Neo-Cons at "Harry's Place", which currently has an article running saying "the Quran is a problem"


Imagine my surprise when I established that Ms Berger is the Labour Party candidate for next year's local elections in the London Borough of Camden, where she is standing in St Pancras and Sommers Town ward. According to the 2001 census the ward has a Muslim population of 22.9%. The Jewish population is 0.8%. What on earth was the Camden CLP thinking when it selected her and where were the Muslim members of that branch on the night of her selection?


Interestingly, the Camden Labour Party fails to mention the word Israel on their website when promoting Luciana Berger. Guess what they say? "Luciana is Director of an organisation concerned with Middle East Policy".


Recently, Councillor Syed Hoque resigned from the Camden Labour Party and joined the Lib Dems, citing the Labour Govt's silence on the massacre of Palestinians by Israelis in Gaza as one of the reasons for his departure. You can read his full statement here. London Muslim disagrees with Cllr Hoque's decision as we believe that he should have fought his cause within the Camden Labour group, hoping to help keep the likes of Berger out. However, as Muslims we salute you Sir for putting the people of Gaza first.
 
London Muslim urges Muslims in Camden, and more widely in London, to be aware that this is how Zionists begin their journey into Parliament, ironically on the back of Muslim votes. When asked by the Daily Telegraph how she responded to predictions of one day being a future Prime Minister, her response was "yes, I'm ambitious".

Let's hope all the Muslim organisations, community centres and Mosques in Camden have a healthy debate about the merits of being represented by the likes of "ambitious" Luciana Berger.

The pain of making the necessary sacrifices always hurts more than you think it's going to. I know. It sucks. That being said, doing something seriously creative is one of the most amazing experiences one can have, in this or any other lifetime. If you can pull it off, it's worth it. Even if you don't end up pulling it off, you'll learn many incredible, magical, valuable things. It's NOT doing it when you know you full well you HAD the opportunity- that hurts FAR more than any failure
