Elder of Ziyon
Henry Jeffreys is a wine critic for various media. He wrote a review of world whiskeys for The Guardian.
His original article, which was initially published in The Guardian, mentioned an excellent Israeli whiskey. Here is a screenshot of part of the article:
He tweeted, "This is really curious. In my latest @guardian column I mention an Israeli whisky. See attached. It didn't make it into the print edition and now it's vanished from the website. 🤔"
Sure enough, the Guardian's article had excised the Israeli whisky:
He tweeted this on November 2, and presumably told his editor at The Guardian about it, but the newspaper didn't respond until social media attention (including from me.)
Today, the online version of the article reinstates the missing sentence about the Israeli whisky, with an editor's terse note: "This article was amended on 5 November 2024 to reinstate a reference to a whisky from the M&H distillery."
By using the word "reinstate," the Guardian is admitting that the Israeli product was in the original article. But it doesn't explain how it got removed - nor how it got removed from the print edition.
But it doesn't take a genius to know what happened.
One or more of The Guardian editors are so fanatically anti-Israel that they removed the reference to the Israeli M&H in both versions, hoping no one would notice - but the author certainly did.
We always knew the Guardian was anti-Israel but here they are sacrificing their own journalistic standards on the altar of BDS. And they only fix the problem when their censorship gave them bad publicity.
M&H is proudly Israeli. Its bottles say "Distilled, matured and bottled in Tel Aviv." M&H stands for "Milk and Honey."
Take true passion for single malt whisky, add the boldness and Israel’s cutting-edge innovation, blend it with an uncompromising commitment to craftsmanship and tradition, and you get M&H, a one-of-a-kind new-world whisky distillery.
The Guardian editors simply couldn't stomach their newspaper linking to an Israeli whisky website.
This is only one proof that anti-Zionism is antisemitism. The obsessive hate of Israel is only rivaled by the age-old obsessive hate of Jews.
