Jewish leaders in Britain are calling for the prosecution of a follower of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan on charges of inciting racial hatred. The call came after Paul Twino accused the British government of capitulating to its “Hebraic puppeteers” when it barred Farrakhan from entering Britain last month. Twino also said in a letter to the British home secretary that the Board of Deputies of British Jews, the representative body of British Jewry, is a “loathsome and slanderous generation of talmudic vipers.”
