The hatred burns within them

Ben-Dror Yemini argues that the British Royal College of Nursing's decision to boycott Teva and the Green Party's definition of Zionism as racism are symptoms of a deeper hatred — not only of Israel, but of the West and liberal values, funded in part by Qatar.

Ben-Dror Yemini argues that two decisions made in Britain in recent days — the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) joining the boycott of Teva, and the Green Party's decision defining Zionism as racism — are not isolated events but symptoms of a deeper hatred. According to him, this is not only hatred of Israel, but hatred of the West and self-hatred, funded in part by Qatar. Yemini links these decisions to a speech by British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband, who claimed last week that "the protesters against Israel are right," and cites a July 2026 Pew Research Center poll showing that 46% of Britons view China favorably compared to 41% who view the US favorably. He warns that hatred is a contagious disease that also harms the haters, and compares the current situation to Nazi hatred that led to Germany's destruction.
