Isaac Zarfati, Executive Director of Stand With Us UK, expressed serious concern during an interview with GB News, stating, “This isn’t just a passing wave; we cannot remain passive. We must take these threats seriously, as they could one day escalate into real violence. Immediate action is needed to address this disturbing trend.”
This incident is part of a larger pattern of anti-Semitic acts in the area. Prior to Yom Kippur, hateful messages like “F*** the Jew,” “Heil Hitler,” and swastikas were found carved into bunkers at the Hendon Golf Club.
London Mayor Sadiq Khan condemned the vandalism at the golf course, saying he was “sickened by the rise in antisemitism” and reaffirming that hate crimes have no place in the city.
Recent data from the London Metropolitan Police highlights a troubling rise in anti-Semitic hate crimes, with incidents more than doubling over the past year. This spike has raised significant alarm among Jewish communities and organizations.
Zarfati warned, “We are seeing a dangerous escalation where lines are continuously being crossed.” Jewish leaders are calling for stronger action to combat the increasing wave of hate crimes."
