Online research by a pro-Israel activist has highlighted the extent to which a suspended Labour member shared antisemitic material on the ‘Palestine Live’ Facebook group she helped set up.

A new report by blogger David Collier, published on his website, has shed light on Elleanne Green’s online activities, as she awaits a party disciplinary hearing.

It shows Green sharing antisemitic conspiracies, some linking Israel to the 9/11 attacks, others alleging that Zionists “steal children to sell them on the black market” and others alleging Israeli spy service Mossad was behind terror attacks in France.

It is not the first time Collier has exposed Green’s online activities, first reporting on her role as the group’s administrator in March 2018, and this month’s report shows Green sharing links alleging that the Mossad is behind ISIS.

Collier describes her work as “false flag linkage or sharing views of antisemites,” adding: “It is beyond scope and necessity to list all the global Jewish conspiracy posts [Green] has shared.”

In 2017 she shared a link exposing Collier’s undercover work within the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, describing him as having “a ratty face”.

Jewish News, which understands that Green’s disciplinary hearing is still to be heard, has approached her for comment.
