. Though anti-Semitism is not a primary concern for most voters, it adds to Corbyn’s liabilities and widespread doubts about his suitability.
In a social media age of conspiracy theories on steroids, anti-Semitism — the most enduring of conspiracy theories — is surging on the British left. However, even if Corbyn loses and is ultimately replaced, Labour has been transformed under his leadership: Its radical left wing now dominates the party machinery, significant numbers of moderates have left, and anti-Semitic attitudes have been unleashed. Some of his devotees will surely blame any loss on a conspiracy by the media, financial interests and, yes, British Jews.
In a social media age of conspiracy theories on steroids, anti-Semitism — the most enduring of conspiracy theories — is surging on the British left. British Jews can only hope that Corbyn will soon be replaced by someone less personally afflicted with anti-Semitic prejudices, and more capable of rooting out the poisonous strain of thinking that now infects the party.
THINK Here it is revealed that an example of antisemitism on the UK left is “not liking Zionism”. Ironically, it’s antisemitic to equate the nation of Israel and its aggressive defense department with Jewish people. Antizionism is not antisemitism even if many Jews happen to be Zionist
THINK 'Jeremy Corbyn, who for more than 30 years was a mostly irrelevant member of Parliament on Labour’s far-left margins. Grey, aging, bearded and unfashionable' nice Tory hit piece there! despite the ceaseless efforts of AIPAC, JDL etc, criticism of Israel is *not* anti-Semitism.
THINK as if this behavior from liberal leftists is isolated to one Country...
THINK Shame on for posting this absolutely one sided and skewed interpretation of this situation... and shame on toby_greene_ as well... the bias is palpable in this article. VoteLabour2019
THINK everyone I've dealt with so far that is Labour has lied to me as I said to Tom Watson he got away from the Labour Party because of all the lies that we're going on
THINK Israel's cruel acts in the Middle East are having a global impact on how people view the Jewish people. US, as a western democracy, couldn't separate the Japenese Americans from the state of Japan. You shouldn't expect a different kind of response from a newly awakened youth.
THINK Repeat after me: pointing out that the settlements are illegal and criticism of the Israeli *government* are *NOT* anti-semitism. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Learn.
THINK Tepid criticism of Israel is considered to be virulent antisemitism apparently...
THINK People are still talking about this? Really? It's a bunch of bs and slander to try and force people's hand before the general election
