"For you, it’s an article of faith that “anti-Israel” is not “anti-Jewish”. But not everyone is so careful." Powerful and poignant by @jonathanfreedland.bsky.social; shd be read by everyone ignoring the PM's call for people to respect the grief of British Jews.

In a time of hate and rancour, two Jews sought to pray – and were killed. Let Manchester be a turning point | Jonathan Freedland

This was a horror but with so much intolerance and antisemitism, no one can say it was a surprise. There are lessons to learn, and that must start now, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Freedland

This book is amazing and I am only 50 pages in. Needs to be a TV series (My grandparents were similarly anti-German as your intro, perhaps as it was a second war, but not quite to the same extent as you mention: however, their views on the Japanese were as unforgiving, given the POW brutality).
