A Jewish woman was brutally assaulted in London this week by two suspects who pummeled her with punches and kicks for over a minute, according to footage posted on social media by Shomrim of Stamford Hill, a Jewish organization that reports on antisemitism.

The attack, which occurred on Thursday evening in the Stamford Hill neighborhood, left the woman unconscious and only ended after two female suspects reportedly said that the woman was “dead” after kicking her while she was on the ground for over thirty seconds, according to Shomrim, which also serves as a neighborhood watch group.

Metropolitan Police are currently searching for the female suspects. No arrests have been made.

Information on the condition of the victim was not immediately available.

The Stamford Hill section of London is no stranger to antisemitic incidents. In October, days after Hamas’ Oct. 7 massacre across southern Israel, two Jewish primary schools in the area were vandalized and doused with red paint.

London’s Metropolitan Police said antisemitic attacks in the city have increased by 1,353 per cent following the outbreak of the Israel-Hamas war on 7 October.

St Selevan’s Day

Today is St Selevan’s Day, but unfortunately this saint almost certainly didn’t exist. His only claim to fame is to have caught two fish on the same single line on three consecutive occasions. It is thought this story was invented to explain two fish carvings on a bench-end at the chapel in St Levan, near Land’s End in Cornwall.

What definitely did take place on this day in 1066 was the momentous Battle of Hastings, which saw King Harold Godwinsson’s army decisively defeated by that of the invading Normans under Duke William. Although the resultant Norman Conquest forever altered the dynastic, political, linguistic and land ownership characteristics of England, it was no foregone conclusion. Harold’s army had already comprehensively defeated a Norwegian Viking army under King Harald Hardrada at Stamford Bridge in the north east. The English levies then made a forced march to meet William’s soldiers who had in the meantime landed at Pevensey Bay. The battle was lost when the English fell for a Norman feint and abandoned their advantageous position on Senlac Hill to pursue apparently fleeing Normans only to be cut down by William’s cavalry when the trap was sprung. In Anglo-Saxon martial tradition, Harold’s elite nobles, his housecarls, refused to desert him and they died to a man alongside their king. This was very valorous, but made the ultimate conquest much easier for William as all who may have resisted the Normans perished on the battlefield.

Although the English Witan made Harold’s heir, Edgar, king, he immediately abdicated in favour of William, who was crowned King William I on Christmas Day, bringing to an end what historians term “Anglo-Saxon England”.

So that post about the London bus is largely misinformation. Before the route was introduced, the journey between Stamford Hill and Golders Green (the 2 biggest Orthodox communities in London, which are only about 7 miles apart as the crow flies) took roughly 90 mins on public transit. It's definitely true that visibly Jewish riders had ongoing concerns about being subjected to antisemitism when making the journey, as it required them to leave predominantly Jewish areas, however that was not the primary reason for wanting the bus route created. To quote this article, which is from Summer of 2023: “The strictly Orthodox Jewish community deserves direct transport and connectivity links. Lack of direct connectivity links acts as a barrier for families and communities." Sadiq Khan was not failing London Jews by helping to get this route created, he was listening to his constituents who had lobbied for a direct bus between two Orthodox Jewish communities for 16 years. That's a good thing!

Thank you! I'll take it down. I was reblogging from a trusted source, so I appreciate the additional info. :]

16 year old Jewish boy has been chased through the streets of London and pelted with STONES, in the latest antisemitic attack. The boy was targetted whilst walking to his local synagogue in the Jewish neighborhood of Stamford Hill.

I’m on chatting terms with the lady in the laundromat, usually about crafts because I do my crochet in there sometimes while I’m waiting for my clothes to dry and today when I went in there she started asking me about shtreimels. Apparently she lives in Stamford Hill (very orthodox area) and she likes seeing the Haredi men wearing them on Shabbat. She was asking me where they get them from (no idea) and if they’re expensive (definitely), and I couldn’t quite tell if she was just curious or wanted to get one for herself?? Probably for the best that she’s unlikely to acquire one but the image of this hijabi woman walking around Stamford Hill in a shtreimel (on top of her hijab?) did tickle me.

most normal public interaction I’ve had about Jewishness in months, TBH. 100000% improvement on the lady who accosted me at a bus stop on Shavuot, said that she was a ‘Jewish person’ and then gave me the full force evangelising treatment about how Jesus is for Jews too.

Waiting for my gentile friends to find ways to argue that the girls weren’t really hurt, that they somehow provoked the violence against them, that it was a false flag attack, and that they won’t read The Jerusalem Post because it’s “hasbara propaganda”.

What my gentile friends don’t seem to realize is that they’re just saying the same thing every gentile generation does whenever Jews are targeted. They all think they’d be the one to hide us from the SS or Gestapo, but in reality they reflect every reason why so few actually did.

I can count on one finger the gentile friends whom I would trust to hide me, and they’d probably be looking for a place to hide themselves when the worst came.

Reminders that attacking Jews thousands of miles away from Israel does in fact do nothing to help Gazans

The bus is set to connect Golders Green with Stamford Hill, two haredi neighborhoods, eliminating the need for passengers to change buses at Finsbury Park station, where harassment of Jews due to their appearance has been repeatedly reported.

According to London Metropolitan Police data, the number of antisemitic hate crime incidents in the city increased by 278.9% - with 2,068 offenses recorded in the 12 months to July, compared to the previous year.

It's true compared to other formerly Colonised Countries like America, Singapore is treated quite "fairly" by the British because we were a pinnacle Trading Port connecting Asia to Europe and well the Americas.

But that doesn't mean we have to praise the fact our land was practically sold by the Sultanate to the British because they wanted Trade, discrimination was rampant, our Ancient History became Myths because of Colonialism.

THE BRITISH BLEW UP THE SINGAPORE STONE, THAT RELIC IS SPILT INTO PIECES, WE ONLY HAVE ONE PIECE IN THE FUCKING MUSEUM and 3 FRAGMENTS ARE IN INDIA.

THEIR BEEF WITH THE ORANG ASLI

So fuck off Colonists, someone could've commissioned another Sang Nila Utama Statue or even Parameswara of Malacca statue, Fort Canning is called Forbidden Hill because that's where our original rulers lived
