Britain – Video Clip Exhibition Containing Antisemitic Material in London

An exhibition of video films containing antisemitic material is to open at the Freud Gallery in

London. The films, which were banned in

Spain after a court in that country declared them illegal for containing seditious elements, were used in the recruitment of activists to Al-Qaeda. The artist displaying these films is Khaled Ramadan a Lebanese-born Danish national, and they are part of a 30-minute art video project. The films show the men who hijacked the planes in the 9/11 attacks, praising the acts that they are about to perform, and their deaths as martyrs against the background of pictures of the actual attacks on the

Twin
Towers. The work also contains clips of Hizballah members and an antisemitic harangue by Louis Farakhan the leader of the “Nation of Islam” organization. Ramadan denied that this was propaganda and was not designed to provoke incitement. According to him, is to inform the public of the existence of these materials. He emphasized that copies of these films were not for sale and that they cannot be duplicated.
