Tory MSP Tomkins supports Israel’s mass murder – now smears critics
{jcomments on}
Alex Massie wrote a piece based on the smears and untruths of a pro-Israel blogger, David Collier, who has attributed to 'SPSC's core activists' a raft of unpleasant anti-semitic posts by people who either have no connection whatsover with SPSC or attend have attended public events orgnanised by SPSC. In place of robust challenges by SPSC to promotoers of anti-semitic ideas over many years, Massie and Collier in a double act claim the opposite - SPSC encourages or promotes anti-semitic ideas by stealth, despite a wealth of counter-evidence.
But a lie promoted by the Murdoch Press can go round Scotland before the truth can get its boots on. Especially if the victim of the Israel Embassy-financed smear campaign is under-funded and facing a Scottish political establishment that has just endorsed an event, an Israeli 'Peace Festival', celebrating Israeli massacres and Apartheid. No-one expects very much by way of truth from a Tory MP or MSP but now shameless Tory MSP Adam Tomkins is taking forward in the Holyrood Parliament smears against SPSC that are based on false claims by a pro-Israel blogger, David Collier, himself discredited by a Westminster Parliament Commitee for raising false accusations of anti-semitism and inventing a claim that he heard Holocaust denial contributions to a pro-Palestine meeting.

So-called Jewish Human Rights Watch who are promoting the smears on behalf of the Israeli Embassy also have a long history of making unfounded claims of anti-semitism.SPSC has shown the patent dishonesty being peddled by JHRW where not a scintilla of antisemitism could be found in any of our extensive published written or spoken word.
Tomkins has a history of working with the main legal architect of Israel's illegal occupation, Aharon Barak, who legally permitted: night raids; torture; mass incaceration of Palestinians, including children; detention without trial; shoot to kill practices; a racist programme of house demolitions; and more. In May 2011, Tomkins spoke at a workshop with Barak on the topic of Israel's "Legitimate Responses to Security Threats". Tomkins hoped his efforts would lead to "links between Glasgow Law School and legal scholars in Israel [being] strengthened."
Tomkins' uses Parliament to smear Palestine solidarity activists, because ALL pro-Israel legal efforts have failed for lack of evidence.
Tory Tomkins' current effort is part of his support for Israel's massacres and ethnic cleansing, widely condemned as war crimes and crimes against humanity.
