IR – I have a large degree of sympathy with the Jewish and Israeli nations regarding their past persecution and their current battle to stop Hamas rockets being fired in to their country .

Recently, however, The World Jewish Congress were successful in having a fashion chain remove a striped child’s T-shirt with a yellow sheriffs’ badge emblem from sale saying it resembled a uniform used during the Holocaust.

Their ability to see evil in the most innocuous situation and be perpetual victims does them no favours whatsoever and merely aligns them with other religions which wish to see themselves in the same regard.

They have no need to follow this endless victim culture to garner support.
