Why the U.K.'s neo-Nazis Are Posing With Israeli Flags

Britain’s far right is trying to turn Jews and Muslims against each other. Most Jews know better, but a minority has allowed legitimate concerns about Islamist extremism to drive a search for false allies on the far right.

The appeal is understandable. The extremes of liberal politeness and a well-meaning desire to maintain social order has led some of Europe’s chattering classes to go soft on extremist ideology. Many prefer to view Islam as an alien yet benign culture that simply needs to be ‘integrated’. If the jilbabs can be made tighter, the beards shorter and the curry milder, "Everything is gonna be ok."
