Has Clegg bowed to Zionist pressure to sack Jenny Tonge?
February 15th, 2010 • News
Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg has sacked Baroness Jenny Tonge as his party’s health spokesperson in the House of Lords. Ostensibly over a reported remark about allegations of human organ harvesting by the Israeli Defence Forces in Haiti, it is suspected that Clegg has acted to protect his party from attacks by the powerful Israel lobby in Britain.
The belief that the sacking took place under Zionist pressure on Nick Clegg has credibility when you consider that Jenny Tonge has called for an inquiry into the allegations in order to clear the name of IDF personnel.
According to the Jewish Chronicle, the LibDem peer praised the efforts of the IDF relief mission in Haiti before adding, “To prevent allegations such as these going any further, the IDF and the Israeli Medical Association should establish an independent inquiry immediately to clear the names of the team in Haiti.”
