UK Group Sells T-Shirts Accusing Israel of Genocide, Holocaust
A pro-Palestinian organization based in Manchester, England, is selling clothing items featuring antisemitic messages and severe accusations against Israel. Anti-antisemitism activists have appealed to British authorities, demanding an investigation into the group, identified as Sun of Freedom. The activists assert that the organization is marketing products on its website that contain blatant incitement against Israel and antisemitic propaganda.
Among the items offered is a t-shirt with the slogan "Israel is a country of genocide, Holocaust, pedophilia, rape, human trafficking, organ and land theft, child murder, terror, apartheid," along with other serious antisemitic accusations. The shirt, priced at 35 British pounds, also states, "You, the Westerners, are kneeling before all of this." This shirt is part of a collection by a designer named Mo Hamz, a Palestinian whose family fled to Jordan after Israel's establishment in 1948. Hamz's clothing line includes various items with incitement against Israel, support for Palestinians, and comparisons of Israel to Nazi Germany.
Anti-antisemitism activists have formally requested British authorities to launch an investigation, alleging that Sun of Freedom violates charity laws by promoting links to violent imagery targeting Israel and Jewish people. The leadership of Sun of Freedom has denied accusations of promoting terrorism and antisemitism, stating that all proceeds from the clothing sales will be directed to aid Palestinians.
