Migrant who called for slaughter of all Jews arrives in UK on small boat

From the Telegraph and the Campaign Against Anti-Semitism

A Palestinian migrant who previously called for all Jews to be killed has said he has arrived in Britain on a small boat.

The young man, who goes by the name of Abu Wadei – with various spellings – shared footage from what appeared to be an inflatable dinghy on social media platform TikTok on Friday.

Wearing a keffiyeh, a head covering, he showed dozens of lifejacket-clad asylum seekers with him on the small boat. The video caption, written in Arabic, translates as: “Thank God, we arrived in Britain after a difficult journey.”

On the same day he posted on a Facebook account: “By the grace of Allah Almighty I reached Britain after a long and difficult journey at sea.”

Yet an investigation by Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA) revealed the man had attended an event addressed by Yahya Sinwar, the former Hamas leader and mastermind of the October 7 massacre.

Abu Wadei, who boasted of more than 172,000 followers on TikTok before his account was taken down on Saturday, describes himself as being a “digital creator” on his Facebook page and being from Gaza City.

Yet an investigation by the CAA found the migrant appeared to show support for the Gaza-ruling group Hamas, which has been proscribed as a terror organisation by the UK Government.

In one video – which appeared to date back to around 2018 – the man was seen telling crowds at a rally that his “loftiest aspiration” was to “die for the sake of Allah”, according to a translation by the CAA.

Posting on Facebook on September 18 last year, the man filmed himself praying. A translation by the CAA of the prayer read:

“Oh Allah, punish the Jews and those who are in league with them.

“Oh Allah, kill them all ,and do not leave a single one of them.

“Oh Allah, destroy them completely, scatter them completely, and make the earth fall from under their feet.”

“Oh Allah give us strength against the criminal Jews. Give us strength against them, Oh Lord of the worlds.”

A spokesperson for CAA said: “We consider that this man poses a threat to public security and are asking the Home Office for urgent assurances that he is in secure custody pending further investigation.

“The fact is that he has brazenly posted not only these views, but also his involvement in a Hamas-endorsed unit in Gaza on social media accounts with hundreds of thousands of followers.”

More from the CAAS Update: we can now reveal more information about Abu Wadei. We believe that his real name is Mosab Al Qasas.

We can also reveal that he seems to have been living without attracting attention in Switzerland and Germany for two years, despite having hundreds of thousands of followers on social media accounts that showcase his involvement in violence in Gaza.

Suddenly a few days ago, it appears that he has decided to cross Europe and risk his life to come to Britain. The chronology of his journey is as follows (we have listed the sources further down):
1. He arrived in Greece in July 2023
2. He departed Greece in August 2023
3. He arrived in Switzerland in August 2023
4. A video dated 19th January 2025 shows him in Stuttgart, Germany, with Schlossplatz behind him. Another video posted the same day, mentions Stuttgart.
5. A video posted on 2nd March shows him travelling through what appears to be a European train station.
6. Videos posted between 4th March and 6th March show him camping in a forest in France, and at a bus stop labelled “Maison Blanche”.
7. Yesterday he posted a video of his cross Channel journey captioned “thank Allah we have arrived in Britain”.

It is alarming in the extreme that he does not appear to have attracted the attention of the authorities in numerous European countries and has now arrived in the UK with relative ease, having openly posted videos on each stop of his journey to the UK.
