Ibrahim Thompson was one of the Durham PSC's
representatives at a PSC Branch Forum in March 2011. In a letter to the Guardian, an Ibrahim Thompson from Durham
wrote:
Can someone explain why it is that yet again secular Jews, who are
recognised as an "ethnic minority" by the race relations act, are
exempted from identifying themselves in the census? Has there been
pressure from a Jewish lobby conscious of how government statistics can
be manipulated?
Mr Thompson also appears to have
illustrated a book of poems written by Nahida Izzat. Ms Izzat was
recently expelled from the PSC for anti-Semitism. According to a
review of the book, entitled "I Believe in Miracles", one poem entitled "The Play"
contains 4 scenes, from 1948, 1967, 1987 and 2004. In each
an Israeli soldier is ordered to "shoot them, kill them, burn them,
don't leave any of them". "But sir, they're only unarmed civilians".
"These are orders". The final scene: "but, sir I DID, and I can't get
rid of them".
