Pro-Palestine activists are accused of waging 'campaign of intimidation'

Jewish activists in Brighton say pro-Palestine canvassers are engaging in a 'campaign of intimidation' by knocking on the doors of locals and asking them to boycott Israeli products. Members of the Brighton and Hove Apartheid-Free Zone (AFZ) group were filmed going door-to-door in the city on February 7, asking residents to sign a pledge against goods manufactured in Israel. The group says it is expressing solidarity with Palestinians who have been killed and displaced in Gaza , taking inspiration from the Anti-Apartheid Movement that targeted South Africa in the latter half of the 20th century. But local Jewish activists have accused the group of engaging in a targeted campaign to whip up feelings of antisemitism towards British Jews.
