HIS LAWYERS SAY the judgement establishes for the first time that anti-Zionist beliefs are protected in the workplace. David’s win should encourage us all. But Gaza is the story here, not David and not the pursuit of certain privileges. Confronting Zionism is what led to David’s situation, and that’s precisely what annoys them.
Quoting David Miller,
“This is not just a victory for me, but also a victory for pro-Palestine campaigners across Britain. Before I took my case, it was unclear whether a belief in the idea that Zionism is a racist, imperialist, and colonial ideology could be protected under the Equality Act 2010. This verdict is a vindication of the approach that a genocidal and maximalist Zionism can only be effectively confronted by a maximalist anti-Zionism. The defensive approach illustrated by many on the left and even in the Palestine Solidarity movement will not work. The Zionist movement cannot be negotiated with. It must be defeated.”
Your efforts are hurting the pro-zionist agenda
When they cannot discuss, they incite troublemakers onto the street to malign protests, prohibit non-violent political organisations and sack you for speaking up. These are desperate tactics aimed at silencing you.
Parents must lead by example
“They wish to extinguish Allah’s light with their mouths, but Allah will ˹certainly˺ perfect His light, even though the disbelievers hate it.” Surat As Saf 61:8
On the authority of Abu Sa’id (may Allah be pleased with him), who said that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said:
Let not any one of you belittle himself. They said: O Messenger of Allah, how can any one of us belittle himself? He said: He finds a matter concerning Allah about which he should say something, and he does not say [it], so Allah (mighty and sublime be He) says to him on the Day of Resurrection: What prevented you from saying something about such-and-such and such-and-such? He say: [It was] out of fear of people. Then He says: Rather it is I whom you should more properly fear. It was related by Ibn Majah with a sound chain of authorities.

As witnessed in schools nationwide, including our own Beal High School, Muslim children have fearlessly expressed their opposition to Zionism. We shouldn’t hesitate either. Parents, support your kids!
