Steve,

Give me any quote from any LABOUR OFFICIAL that she was suspended FOR ANTISEMITIC STATEMENTS.


Certainly Steve,
Guardian 27th April,
"Even after the prime minister said it was "extraordinary," that she continued to hold the Labour whip, and accused the Labour leader of failing to get to grips with antisemitisim in his party, Corbyn's aides defended Shah, saying the comments were antisemitic but the MP had "shocked herself," and did not mean what she said."

Corbyn and his aides accepted that her comments were antisemitic and she herself admitted it, so of course she had to be suspended for it.

The "investigation" was not into whether she had made antisemitic comments.
That was already established.
They just had to decide what to do with her.

It's interesting, isn't it. If I told Keith that Naz Shah was an avid supporter of Jeremy, was an avid supporter of Hamas, was an avid supporter of Remain, was an avid supporter of boycotting Israeli goods, was an avid supporter of reinstating the rights of disabled people that the Tories have removed, was an avid supporter of ending austerity, etc. etc. (all true), he'd be calling her, variously, a liar, deluded, bigoted, antisemitic, a terrorist apologist, far left, etc. etc. Yet when she says something a little contritional, she is oh so truthful that we have to hang on her every word as gospel. Naz says, under considerable pressure, that she's said something antisemitic (I heartily disagree with her, but hey ho), so she's spot on. Dead right. Not to be argued with. But on everything else she says she's a scurrilous lying little leftie bastard. Typical of the Murdoch-driven extreme right represented by Keith and his sorry ilk that they try to have their cake, full of picked cherries, and eat it. Well you're really easy to see through, Keith. And you lied about her and you're still lying about her. Her suspension was mutually agreed pending investigation. Not for any other reason. Then she was rapidly reinstated. I know you don't like it. I know it doesn't suit your weak and flaccid case. But that's the truth. And I'll tell you another thing. I'm a member of a party that is replete with supporters of Israel. The are dozens of times more of them than there are alleged antisemites. They even have their own official lobby group within the party (nowhere near as nasty as the one in the Tory party, but I still don't much care for it). It doesn't matter to me. I understand arguments that sympathise with all the people of Israel. I'm not affiliating myself to any setup or any individual who wants Israel wiped off the map. I actually want far more for Israeli people than you do. I do not want Israeli people put in harm's way, unlike you, bobad and Bibi.

Greg, they also adopt definitions that fit their political agenda. Keith will tell you that the discarded (in 2013) and discredited "working definition" of antisemitism, never advocated by the EU for adoption BY ANYONE, drawn up by an EUMC that has now been defunct for NINE YEARS, pushed for fervently by an advisory board that represented almost exclusively Jewish/Israeli interests, is the one to go for. Not because he thinks it's a fair definition, but because its a definition that proscribes all criticism of the actions of the state of Israel, poor old Israel that needs Keith "to put their side of the story" contrary to all the facts at our disposal. Stuff that criticises the excesses of a state that HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HATING JEWS BECAUSE THEY ARE JEWS. Keith and booboo haven't a clue what real, vicious antisemitism is, the kind that put six million innocent people in lethal jeopardy and which those two still employ in order to continue to put ordinary Jewish people in harm's way. Thank God for the Jews of this world that they have no power or influence is all I can say. If only they knew what they are doing. Keith and bobad and their ilk are the mortal enemies of Jewish people the world over. It's bloody shocking the way they behave here, it is.

You disagree not only with her, but also the Prime Minister and Corbyn himself that IT WAS ANTISEMITIC.

You show yourself as unable to recognise antisemitism.

Not an official EU organisation. The advisory board consists of pro-Israel lobby groups. It is not the EUMC as you keep implying. You cling to this like a dried turd pellet to an arse hair. Turn the record over. Anyone can say they've adopted anything they like, but the TRUTH is that the EU NEVER adopted the definition and NEVER advocated that ANYONE ELSE took it up.

And I don't give a shit what the ex-prime minister thinks, the man who lets dead pigs fellate him. Show me where Corbyn has said "Naz Shah is antisemitic." You really can't wring any more out of this one, Keith. She's apologised for her stupidity and ignorance. If she thinks what she said was antisemitic I think she is wrong. I've been over her relevant remarks and shown that she said nothing that attacked Jews BECAUSE THEY ARE JEWS. It's over, Keith. Only desperadoes like you and bobad and the Daily Mail keep burbling on about it.

The thread is about what people post in it, Teribus. Only people like Keith whose arguments are going belly-up moan about thread drift below the line. And let's have your comparative Israeli/"Arab" casualty figures for, say, the period since the '67 war.

" let's have your comparative Israeli/"Arab" casualty figures" - Steve Shaw

In 1947 as the Great Britain's League of Nations Mandate was coming to an end, the UN offered the Jews of Palestine and the Arabs of Palestine a Two-State solution, the former were prepared to accept it, the latter refused and opted to go to war. Chose violence and you must accept the consequences - their aim at the time, clearly stated was that they were going to drive the Jews of Palestine into the sea - in short Shaw they were promising annihilation.

Chose violence as the Leaders of the Palestinian Arabs have done and attack a sovereign state then accept that they will retaliate and they may well be far better at retaliating than you are at attacking and that is what has proved to be the case over the past 68 years.

Second World War:

British Civilian Casualty figures - 67,200
German Civilian Casualty figures - 1,550,000 to 2,950,000

They seem a bit disproportionate to you Shaw? War is not a game, it is not subject to equivalence.

The Israeli's unilaterally withdrew from Gaza in 2005, since then {Having been given everything they said they wanted} over 15,000 missiles of some sort or another have been launched from Gaza and fired into Israel, indiscriminately targeting Israeli civilians. If you are fussed about civilians being killed in Gaza Shaw get Corbyn to have a word with his Hamas mates and tell them to stop all attacks on Israel and just in case they for some reason or another cannot do that then tell them that if they want to fight then have them stop hiding behind civilians when they do it.

But as Shaw did ask

Arab/Israeli casualty figures since 1967 (For some reason Shaw has cherry-picked this start point):

Israeli Deaths - 7,661
Israeli Wounded - 19,334

Arab Deaths - 74,840
Arab Wounded - 59,011

Do you want to move the goal posts Shaw?

Since 1920 the figures are as follows:

Jewish/Israeli Deaths - 24,969
Jewish/Israeli Wounded - 36,260

Arab Deaths - 91,105
Arab Wounded - 78,038

Considering the number of occasions where having been offered peace the Arabs of the region have chosen war then those figures are not disproportionate at all.

I don't need any when Hamas spokesmen themselves go on Television and admit that they do.

From Channel 4 Fact Check:

"Hamas has made no secret of advocating the use of civilians as human shields to try to face down Israeli aggression.

A senior spokesman for the group, Sami Abu Zuhri, gave an interview on Palestinian station al-Aqsa TV earlier this month."


The date was July 8, 2014 and the television channel was owned by Hamas so hardly any bias eh Shaw?

The EUMC has not existed for the last nine years. The "working definition" was OFFICIALLY ditched by its successor organisation in 2013, having NEVER been either adopted nor endorsed in any case. This is the inviolable truth of the matter that anyone can look up in five minutes. Of course, anyone can say they've "adopted" a defunct document. Christians do it all the time. You really are barking mad.

Naz Shah was put under mutually-agreed administrative supension pending investigation, then reinstated. The inviolable truth that anyone can look up in less than five minutes. Everything else is loose comment, opinion, bigging up by the pro-Israeli regime right wing (including you) and hearsay. I've seen many a box of frogs less mad than you. In the overall planetary scheme of things, Naz Shah was a storm in a teacup. Note "was." It's gone, Keith. Gone. Dead. You've nailed it to its perch to no avail. The issue has rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. It has ceased to be. It is an ex-issue.

London's Muslim Mayor Barraged by Anti-Semites for Opposing Jeremy Corbyn

(JTA) — London Mayor Sadiq Khan, the first Muslim mayor of a European capital city, has been bombarded with anti-Semitic messages since he said he would not support Jeremy Corbyn in the Labour Party leadership election.

Several of the messages suggested that he had been influenced by Jews, the London-based news website Jewishnews.uk reported.

The mayor "spends his time writing articles to help his masters in Tel Aviv," read one tweet.

"Who owns you @sadiqkhan?" read another, which included a photo of Khan wearing a kippah while eating matzah at a Jewish community event.

Last week, Khan threw his support behind Owen Smith, who has been a Parliament member since 2010 and is Corbyn's only challenger for the party leadership. Smith previously worked as a radio and television producer for the BBC.

Khan, a Labour member, wrote an op-ed published Saturday in The Guardian newspaper in support of Smith. He said in the London-based daily that if Corbyn remained party leader, Labour would be unlikely to win the next general election. Khan also said Corbyn "has already proved that he is unable to organize an effective team, and has failed to win the trust and respect of the British people."

In a June op-ed in The Jerusalem Post, Kahn pledged to root out anti-Semitism in London and in the Labour Party.

Some 500,000 ballots for the leadership race were sent out to party members on Monday; the results will be announced next month.

Well,Bubo, That's the wonder of Anti-Social Media- in a nanosecond, cranks,assholes, morons, and idiots can spew (or rather tweet/twat) and distribute their garbage to a world-wide audience.

However, what have this current crop of assholes got to do with anti-semitism in the Labour Party?

Hey Greg F., see your internet research skills as still lacking as ever. C'mon sunshine give us "your" Arab/Israeli casualty figures dead/wounded for the period covering 1967 to the present day like your pal Steve Shaw requested.

Best not hold our breath though eh?

Don't know about that Shaw, remember I have already posted the figures you requested plus the ones going back to 1920 and they were not really as disproportionate as you and your pals like to make out.

But there again you and your pals think that there is, or should be, some sort of "tit-for-tat" equivalence when it comes to war - simply put there isn't. Since 1920 the Arabs of the region have chosen armed conflict as their way of solving what they see as the Jewish problem. It is most certainly NOT the fault of the Jews of the region and latterly of Israel that they simply happen to be a damned sight better at armed conflict than their Arab antagonists - perhaps it may have had something to do with motivation, the Israelis know with absolute certainty what their fate would be should they ever lose, so they make sure that they don't.

When the Ottoman Empire was broken up there were two multi-cultural secular enclaves created where religious tolerance would be the norm - Lebanon and Palestine - to make the latter 77% of the original Palestine Mandate was hived off and given to the Arabs of the region for their sole settlement. That however wasn't good enough they wanted the lot. Lebanon has all but vanished as haven of tolerance it was supposed to be and is now an armed camp where various militias watch each other like hawks, only Israel remains as a democratic, secular, multi-faith and multi-cultural country surrounded by those who wish to destroy it.

As Greg F. doesn't seem able to produce the figures Shaw maybe you could have a go at it? And you never know maybe you could provide a link to show the Hamas Map of this Two-State Solution that they claim to be fighting for. But as both you and I know Shaw - no such map exists - and you are not honest enough to acknowledge that.
