A new survey has found that 44% of British Jews avoid visible displays of their Judaism, such as a kippa or Star of David, due to fear of antisemitism, reveals a survey conducted by the Campaign against Antisemitism and Kings College London.

Nine out of ten participants in the survey said media bias against Israel was fueling antisemitism in the UK and 78% believed politicians weren’t doing enough to protect the Jewish community.

Compared to last year’s numbers, more UK Jews were optimistic about their future than last year, with 57% saying they feel welcome in Britain and 18% saying they feel somewhat or very unwelcome.

The study gave participants statements to agree or disagree with.

Among the other statements were:

“I am just as open to having Jewish friends as I am to having friends from other sections of British society.”

“Israel treats the Palestinians like the Nazis treated the Jews.”

“Jewish people talk about the Holocaust just to further their political agenda.”

“Jewish people chase money more than other people do.”

“I am comfortable spending time with people who openly support Israel.”

“Israel has a right to exist as a homeland for the Jewish people.”

“Israel can get away with anything because its supporters control the media.”

12% of those surveyed showed “entrenched antisemitic views” by agreeing with four or more of the statements. 55% of people did not agree with any statement and 45% agreed with one or more. Participants agreed the most with “Israel treats the Palestinians like the Nazis treated the Jews.” This statement was affirmed by 23% of respondents.

Chief executive of Campaign Against Antisemitism, Gideon Falter said, “Britain’s Jews are back from the brink. This study starkly shows that Labour under Jeremy Corbyn dealt a crushing blow to Jews’ confidence in their very future in this country, and that our community is now beginning to recover.”

Corbyn served as Leader of the Labour Party and Leader of the Opposition from 2015 to 2020. He was suspended in Nov 2020 for antisemitic remarks.

New Labour chief Keir Starmer was elected in April 2020 and vowed to root out antisemitism in Labour that allegedly “flourished” under Corbyn.

“But scars remain,” Falter continued. “Notwithstanding the relief felt by so many, our data shows that nearly half of those who normally wear outwards symbols of their Judaism now feel they have to hide it.”

In a Las Vegas suburb, a family’s experience has put them into the realm of the unexplained. What started as a crashed object in their backyard and sightings of “non-human” beings has now unveiled a captivating connection to two historic UFO incidents—Trinity and Rendlesham Forest.

It was a late April night when the people of Las Vegas witnessed something extraordinary. Multiple witnesses, including law enforcement officers, observed a streak across the sky. Body cam footage from one of the responding police officers displays the spectacle. As reports flooded in from across eastern California, Nevada, and Utah, the American Meteor Society took note, hinting at a spectacle that defied easy explanation.

Responding to the call, two police officers were dispatched to investigate the strange occurrence. The body camera footage obtained from both officers captured their initial reactions, reflecting a mix of nerves and intrigue.

Conversations between officers and witnesses revealed astonishing claims, with one witness describing a “big creature” standing around 10 feet tall.

While one officer proceeded to inspect the backyard, the video footage from his body camera was redacted by Metro police due to privacy concerns, according to reports. Witnesses conveyed their belief in the sighting, despite expressing skepticism before. Simultaneously, another witness informed the police about an SUV circling the area, potentially adding another layer of mystery to the incident, according to reports.

But this was just the beginning.

As the incident unfolded, an web of connections emerged, drawing parallels to historical UFO encounters that have perplexed and fascinated humanity for decades. Among these, the Trinity Incident stands as a testament to the enduring mystery surrounding UFO phenomena.

The Trinity Incident, which transpired in, July 1945, was set against the backdrop of the world’s first atomic bomb test in New Mexico. Witnesses, present during the event, reported a peculiar sighting, a UFO defying the laws of physics, hovering near the blast. The incident became covered in secrecy due to its connection to the classified Manhattan Project. This led to the rise of speculation about extraterrestrial involvement and their interest in our technological advancements.

Fast forward to December 1980, when another chapter in UFO history was written, Rendlesham Forest, an event that unfolded near the RAF Woodbridge base in Suffolk, England. Military personnel stationed there encountered inexplicable lights and an otherworldly craft nestled amidst the forest. The Rendlesham Forest incident remains one of the most compelling UFO cases on record, captivating the world with its documented evidence, eyewitness testimonies, and subsequent investigations.

Now, as the Las Vegas incident captures global attention, trending on Twitter, its connection to these historical encounters become apparent. The connections are astonishing, a crashed object, sightings of strange beings upwards of 10 feet tall, and eyewitnesses who stand by their claims, just as those who witnessed the Trinity Incident and the events in Rendlesham Forest did.

What does this all mean?

In this connection of past and present, the Las Vegas backyard encounter serves as a gateway into the world of UFOs. It calls the worlds to explore the uncharted territories of the unknown, where the boundaries of our understanding are challenged.

As speculation continues to surround this perplexing event, the encounters with unidentified phenomena and the mention of “big creatures” with large gazing eyes, in a suburban backyard have left the community and investigators perplexed. The quest for answers in this unusual case remains ongoing, as locals ponder the possibility of an otherworldly presence.
