UK Special Coverage (Photo by Peter Byrne/PA Images via Getty Images) The response of the British left to the knife attack on two Jews, Moshe Shine, 76, and Shloime Rand, 34, in London’s Golders Green on Wednesday was telling. The leader of the left-wing Green Party, Zack Polanski, retweeted a post on X accusing the police of brutality for “violently kicking a mentally ill man in the head.” Well, a kick in the head is perhaps the least this attacker should have expected after refusing to give up his weapons; in many jurisdictions, he would be dead. Essa Suleiman has now been charged with attempted murder. The men stabbed in…Open
