(Jewish Group) Journalist claims three Jewish politicians don't have 'human blood'

(THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP! RESPECT!!)

The National Union of Journalists has distanced itself from one of its senior members, who claimed two Jewish Labour MPs and an ex-councillor do not have “human blood”.

Arjum Wajid, who is on the National Executive Council of the NUJ, caused anger online this week after remarks about Jewish Labour MPs, Ruth Smeeth & Louise Ellman, and former councillor, Adam Langleben.

Posting on social media, the broadcaster, who says in her Twitter profile she is a “supporter of Palestinian Struggle” and believes “in equality of all human beings”, retweeted a comment by Tony Greenstein, who was expelled by Labour in February for anti-Semitism.

She asked Greenstein if he believed the three Jewish politicians “have a conscience??” She added: “Don’t know what runs through their veins, not human blood. Their hearts and brains totally devoid of humanity and eyes blind to truth. No creatures Abraham’s universe”.
