Jim Carroll BS: The UK Labour Party and Antisemitism. (276* d) RE: BS: The UK Labour Party and Antisemitism. 05 Sep 18


It was a programme deliberately and rather crudely designed to, on the one hand smear the Labour leadership by presenting them as Anti-semitic and on the other, to present Israel as a defensive victim of terrorist attacks rather than what it has become, an extremist right wing state in the process of 'purifying' itself of its legitimate Aarab citizens
It viewed as a blatant 'Party Political Broadcast on behalf of the Likud Party'; as someone born during WW2, with all the memories and emotions that provokes, it filled me with horror and disgust - a one-sided rant for extremism
Up to the time I stormed out, it in no way attempted to describe antisemitism experienced by the participants at the hands of Labour members, just repetitions of the accusations we have all been bombarded with from the right-wing establishment and media since Corbyn first expressed his support and sympathy for the plight of the Palestinian people   
The two things it established beyond any doubt; all the accusations made against Corbyn and his supporters concern their criticism of Israel and NOT attacks on the Jewish People and that all these accusations are part of the ANTI-BDS CAMPAIGN

Time for an alternative view of Israel, I think
A Jewish view of the effect of Israel's behaviour on Diaspora Jews from an Smerican/Jewish founded source makes interesting reading
