Thread Name: BS: The UK Labour Party and Antisemitism.
Subject: RE: BS: The UK Labour Party and Antisemitism.
"Earlier today (when you could still see your screen through the spittle)you wrote:"
Yesterday (before you decided the best method of defence was personal abuse) your defence of Israel was that there were worse (a dubious point point anyway)
Can you justify that somewhat schoolyard-level argument

I have asked you peopele over and over again what exactly you are accusing the Labour Party of
I think the fact than not one of you have had the bottle (or good manners) to reply indicates you have no answer, which is answer enough
If you have no accusation, you have no case, which most of us here are aware of anyway

"40% of British Jews say they would leave if Corbyn became Prime Minister."
And still accusations without substantiation - this gets more and more Kafkaesque by the minute
There is little doubt my mind that Antisemitism

Some world reports
Apr 23, 2017 - In contrast, English-speaking countries saw a rise in antisemitic incidents: The UK saw an increase of 11%, though the rate of violent incidents

America
Mar 17, 2018 - Anti-Semitic hate crimes are on the rise, up 57 percent in 2017 from 2016, the ... something to head off, especially when the rise of anti-Semitism is ... stories feed the larger narrative of a debauched world of liberalism that needs cleansing by fire.

Europe
The anti-Semitism news from Europe in over the past year has been terrible: Jews murdered in Paris and Copenhagen, synagogues attacked by mobs and firebombed, and increasing Jewish emigration attributed to fear of more attacks.

CANADA

Corbyn must be a very powerful man, doncha think?

World antisemitism is sharply on the rise and it's the fault of the British Labour party!!!!!!
Are you out of your mind?

ANTISEMITISM IS ON THE RISE AGAIN IN LINE WITH THE RISE OF RIGHT-WING POLITICS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD - TRUMP'S AMERICA, BREXIT BRITAIN, EUROPLEAN NEO-NAZIS, RIGHT WING POLITICS IN FORMER COMMUNIST COUNTRIES, ISRAEL POPULISM DRIVEN BY ZENOPHOBIA - a gradual swing to the right throughout the world   

Antisemitism is the domain o the right - not the left - it always has been and it always will be
THe Holocaust was a right-wing affair paid for by German indistrial capitlism

Whatever the cause of it, I suggest that Israel's identifying their extremist policies as "Jewish" hasn't helped
