Jewish group walks away from Labour

[RonnieBird]

More deflection. It's about much more than politics if you want to go after a race and your politics will not justify it or excuse it.
Why not find some clips from Germany in the 1930's or Oswald Mosley claiming that it's a political difference ?
We've heard it all before.

You are a piece of work aren't you? There is no deflection in countering your conflation of anti-Zionism with anti-semitism. And you are the one who is deliberately equating criticism of the Israeli state's political ideology and policies with Judaism (whether defined by race, religion, culture or ethnicity). The only person in this thread to 'go after a race' is you with your anti-semitic tropes and comparing modern anti-Zionist Jews (orthodox, liberal, socialist and others) with Nazis.

We have indeed heard all that before, and it stinks! It also works, which is the real shame. It distracts from the real rise of anti-semitic hatred and attacks especially in Europe and North America - mainly fed by right-wing populists (who really do look for inspiration to the 1930s fascists), but it also gags Palestinians and their supporters and feeds a false story to the various Jewish communities in this country and beyond.

The shame and absurdity of your position is when non-Jewish members of organisations like the Labour Friends Of Israel or the Jewish Labour Movement (which encourages non-Jewish membership unlike the Jewish Voice For Labour) denounce a Jewish survivor of the Auchwitz concentration camp as an anti-semite because of his opposition to Israeli settler colonialism - partly to smear Corbyn by association.
