The leader of the Free Gaza Movement, Mary Hughes-Thompson, has tweeted a message implying that Israel may be behind the Paris terror attacks.
“I haven’t accused Israel of involvement. Still, Bibi is upset about the European settlement boycott. So who knows,” she writes, using a nickname for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
This isn’t the first time Hughes-Thompson has suggested Israeli involvement behind attacks on France. In January, she surmised that the Mossad could have carried out a deadly attack on the editorial offices of magazine Charlie Hebdo, an attack which was carried out by two Islamist brothers.
“#Hebdo killings indefensible. Can’t help thinking #JSIL Mossad false flag though….”
JSIL is the acronym for “Jewish State in the Levant,” a term being used by anti-Israel activists to equate Israel with ISIS.
