Zionist Celebs In the UK

Eddie- Up sh*t creek

Eddie Marsan, recent star of The Thief His Wife and The Canoe star played vile character in EastEnders | Metro News is actually quite the Zionist:

Eastenders star Tracy-Ann Oberman; highly unpleasant- she tweeted with joy when the Corbyn banner was slashed

Tracy-Ann Oberman is there.. and here too: See this extract from the showbiz data website IMDb who gives out useful info on celebrities. IMDb said of Roger Waters – Biography – IMDb under “Trivia”, that:

“He has been a vocal critic of the state of Israel. In 2019, he organized a controversial (and unsuccessful) petition which opposed Israel hosting the Eurovision Song Contest due to the conflict with the Palestinians. His petition was supported by fellow British prog-rock legend Peter Gabriel, but it prompted a rival petition signed by Stephen FryRachel RileySimon CallowSharon OsbourneGene SimmonsAl Murray and Tracy-Ann Oberman, who accused the other petition of attacking the “spirit of togetherness”.

Rachel Riley of Countdown
Tamzin Outhwaite stars in Eastenders
Actor Stephen Fry- his “Spirit of Togetherness” includes Israel but excludes Palestine. In his 2023 Xmas message Fry equated pro-Palestine demo to nazism. In ’08, he said Israel founded on terrorism – SKWAWKBOX

So – Rachel Riley, Tamsin Outhwaite, Stephen Fry- and the infamous Tracy-Ann Oberman again…

Rachel Riley and Tracy-Ann Obermann work together to harass critics of Israel. They both work with Eddie Marsan as does Tamsin Outhwaite. Rachel Riley constantly accused Jeremy Corbyn of antisemitism; she is currently suing Mike Sivier of Vox Political for libel after he quoted an article about her bullying a teenage girl on Twitter…

All these celebrities are also supporters of Creative Community for Peace, a pro-Israeli organisation that seeks to undermine the BDS campaign. It bills itself as ENTERTAINMENT’S ANSWER TO THE BDS MOVEMENT. It describes itself thus “CCFP is an apolitical organization that strives to provide balance to the discourse regarding the Israeli/Palestinian conflict and encourage entertainers to travel to the region to experience it for themselves.” In reality, CCFP whitewashes Israeli apartheid, by promoting Israel and refusing to condemn its racist nature.

David Miller writes “Islamophobia is endemic amongst Zionists. It’s not just Lee Kern, Sacha Baron Cohen, David Baddiel but also many of their cohorts and collaborators. I wrote about a little known Zionist youth group called Habonim Dror, that incubated and continues to incubate racism by radicalising Jewish youth. Women’s Hour presenter Emma Barnet was a member, so was the Guardian’s Jonathan Freedland, and his old mate the ‘ethical’ Labour lobbyist Lord Jon Mendelsohn. There’s lots more, including the former Israeli ambassador to the UK – Mark Regev. He is now a Hasbara advisor to Netanyahu, most recently seen cheering on genocide in Gaza.”

The actress Dame Maureen Lipman signed the October Declaration (of Oct 2023) to condemn the Hamas attacks on Israel along with a wide array of figures, including playwright Sir Tom Stoppard, lyricist Sir Tim Rice, former foreign secretary Lord Owen, TV presenters Vanessa Feltz and Rachel Riley, historians Tom Holland and Lord Roberts, and evolutionary scientist Richard Dawkins. They demand the BBC start calling Hamas “Terrorists” and attack any that stand for Palestine.  Also signed by former MI6 head Sir Richard Dearlove; director of Labour Against Antisemitism Emma Picken; actor Steven Berkoff, headteacher Katharine Birbalsingh; former ministers Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg and Lord Pickles; feminist campaigner Julie Bindel; Tom Holland and comedy writer Graham Linehan.
