Fair enough - possibly. But it seems to me that everyone else, or at least everyone of a reasonable disposition, didn't need to ask that question.

To add some colour, though:

1/
Israel was murderously attacked on 7-Oct-23. 1200+ brutally murdered and hundreds of innocent people abducted by Hamas terrorists to Gaza.

2/
Israel then attacked Hamas targets, with significant collateral civilian damage as the assault progressed. Hamas used the civilian population as shields, for example tunnel entrances in schools or hospitals.

3/
As this dragged on, the destruction as shown on TV attracted criticism from all quarters through application of the vague term "proportionate".

So - what is proportionate to what Hamas did? What is "proportionate" about not wiping Hamas out - who are ideologically and suicidally obsessed with murdering Israelis and Jews?

4/
That brings us to the UK. It is well known that antisemites more-or-less equate Israelis with all Jews; the "who would you cheer at a football match" syndrome.

5/
As soon as 09-Oct-23, the Jew haters were out on London's streets with their infamous banners wishing genocide on Israeli Jews. Anti-Jewish hate incident took place immediately, including physical violence on Jews.

6/
With the most recent incidents appearing to become common, it is very clear that Jew haters are coming out of the woodwork and equally clear that the government doesn't know how to deal with it (given the Muslim vote in Labour constituencies).

7/
So, there you have it. Jews are being murdered by people of alien ideology. Nobody is murdering Muslims in the UK. The government is "appalled", "there is no place for antisemitism in the UK", "our thoughts and prayers ..."; all weasel words.

What is worse, the impressionable teenagers find it easy to criticise Israel to the extent of distaste for British Jews

Oh yes - the enemy is already here in critical mass, and still coming.

How much of what I've said above is drivel @TheDaddy?
