His name is Ismail Hussein
You probably have not heard his name before
He is an unworthy victim
A Muslim
A person of color
An inconvenient truth to dispute a narrative
Stabbed on the same day, and by the same attacker, as two Jewish men in Golders Green
The day after the attacker was released from a secure mental health facility
Allegedly
His name is Ismail Hussein
He is an unworthy victim
In 2024 / 2025 there were 3,199 hate crimes against Muslims in England and Wales
In 2024 / 2025 there were 1,715 hate crimes against Jews in England and Wales
In 2024 / 2025 there were 3,809 hate crimes against Transgender individuals in England and Wales
All hate crimes are abhorrent
Just like Antisemitism and Genocide
Just like shadowy terrorist groups that at best are subcontracting out chaos to idiots
And at worst are a false flag attempt to manipulate public opinion
His name is Ismail Hussein
He is an unworthy victim
No Prime Ministers threatening to ban protests for him
No Chiefs of the Met attacking the only Jewish leader of a major political party
because they question kicking a man in the face while he lies prone on the ground having just been tazed
His name is Ismail Hussein
He is an unworthy victim
Intifada: uprising or rebellion
from the Arabic “to shake off”
From the river to the sea: A Palestinian phrase to describe a single state with Jews, Christians, and Palestinians living side by side
Also used by Netanyahu and the far right to describe a “Greater Israel”
Antizionist phrases
Not antisemitic
His name is Ismail Hussein
He is an unworthy victim
The far right marches through our streets
Spreading hate and fear for Muslims and anyone they consider the “other”
But let’s ban the marches against genocide
Let’s attack the only Jewish political party leader
All while we dismantle the government department that tracks war crimes in Israel and Lebanon
His name is Ismail Hussein
He is worthy
And we say his name to remind us that we are being manipulated
Losing our democracy to fear
The failures of our mental health system
And the oversimplification of geopolitics
His name is Ismail Hussein.
