Met Police investigating ‘leadership coordinator’ at Scotland Yard who said support for Israel should be a ‘hate crime’
By Perkin Amalaraj and Dan Sales, Daily Mail:
… as force sacks hard-left advisor who led ‘from the river to the sea’ chant at pro-Palestine rally.
The Met Police has revealed it is investigating a ‘leadership coordinator’ who apparently said that supporting Israel should be a ‘hate crime.’
Amina Ahmed describes herself on her LinkedIn page as a ‘leadership program facilitator and project manager’ at the Met Police, and seemingly made calls for those who support Israel to be investigated for a ‘hate crime.’
In an edited comment posted in her name, she wrote: ‘I think at this point, if anyone openly agrees with the war in Gaza, they should be called out as Islamophobic and inciting hatred against Muslims.’
‘That should be investigated as extremism. Whether the [counter-terrorism] world decides to act fairly and proportionately and treat IDF support as an extremist ideology, I don’t know.’
The force said it was now looking into Ahmed’s post, with a spokesperson telling MailOnline: ‘We are aware of this post circulating on social media and are currently reviewing it.’
It comes as a police adviser was sacked over his ‘apparent anti-Semitic views’ after he was seen leading pro-Palestine chants.
