Author and political commentator Douglas Murray fears an October 7-style event taking place in Britain if the threat of Islamism is not tackled head-on.
He pointed to “hundreds of thousands of people on our streets celebrating the death cult of Hamas” in the days following the atrocity in Israel.
Speaking on GB News, Murray said Israel has “stared in the face” of what will happen in Britain if “obscenities” in British society are not tackled.
“So-called pro-Palestinian groups are actually just anti-Semitic, anti-Israel, pro-Hamas”, he said.

“In what other world are 1,200 people burned alive in their homes, raped and beheaded and people in our society immediately decide to victimise the victims?
“What has gone wrong here that in the days after October 7, hundreds of thousands of people are on our streets celebrating the death cult of Hamas?

“They’re not siding with a democracy like Israel, an ally of ours that makes mistakes like all allies do, but not siding with our allies, but siding with the death cult.
“This is an enormous civilisational challenge to us in Britain, in America, and until we grasp the obscenity of what has happened on our streets in the last 18 months, what has been happening in our mosques, in our streets, we will not address this problem.”
Hundreds of thousands have taken to the streets of Britain on a regular basis following the October 7 atrocities, where Hamas militants launched coordinated armed incursions from the Gaza Strip into southern Israel.
The terror group killed around 1,200 while also and took approximately 250 hostages.

Israel’s response to the massacre has drawn scorn from parts of British society who will often take to the streets adorned with Palestinian flags.
More extreme elements of the movement have used Hamas and Hezbollah flags.
Murray told Camilla that it points to “how many sick people there are in our society”.
“We’ve had in the last ten years a slogan in the wake of MeToo and so on – believe all women”, he said.
“But it turns out that the rule doesn’t apply if the women are Jews, if the women are Israelis.
“I have seen evidence of this. I have spoken to the people who have gone through this. The victims of rapes on the seventh and people who saw the dead bodies of women who have been raped.
“The idea that we have such a sick coterie in our country does not believe raped women, because the people who carried out the attacks of Hamas or the people who suffered them are Israelis is again, a problem in our society here.”
