And the latest virtuous angel to join the hateful eight?
What was it Alexei Sayle said, “It’s absurd to see people who’ve spent a lifetime campaigning against racism, being called racist by racists.”
Are people willfully just turning a blind eye to whats going on here or are they actually thick?

Indeed BJ. It's a matter of grave concern around the world and it is a a product of both the far right and far left extremism but the way it is being handled in this country is neither helpful to Jewish people or shows absolutely any concern for real anti-Semitism and almost certainly aids and abets it. If it was wasn't such a dangerous state of affairs it would be laughable to see people being conned in this way.

Unfortunately I think it is portrayed as ( and possibly actually is , I don't know) one of those issues that people are forced ( should not be) to make a binary choice. Sympathy for Palestinians equates to anti Israel then equates for some anti Jew..... you can't sit on the fence.....and then Political mileage is/ can be made out of it. |

He's a right pompous arse, sitting there interupting and spouting that out.
This anti-semetism is a concern, however Israels occupation and continuous building in the west bank after being told to stop by many countries isn't helping the issue.

The Israeli lobby in this country and around the world are very clever through the woe is me chuck any shit it can it’s convinced the world that anti Semitic and anti Zionist are the same thing
Personally I frankly do not care what religion or no religion a person is people should be free to be whom they are
Should Israel exist hell no and the actions of its leaders in the name of religion only serves to diminish religion
I do not purchase anything that originates from what I consider the occupied country of Palestine
I don’t believe for a second corbyn is anti Semitic
He like myself is anti Zionist

There aren't many groups of people, ethnoreligious or otherwise, who are as protected or exempt from criticism on either a personal or wider basis.
"That word" immediately comes out in response, and everybody shits themselves.

Labour aren't anti-semitic.
Diane Abbott was in tears after she watched Schindler's List 3.

Orthodox Jews living in Israel often protest about the Zionist government of Israel and how it gives them a bad name. |

Anti Semitism also seems to be on the rise in Germany and France Sheikh That's what you get when you open the gates and allow in fuck knows how many hundreds of thousands of third world Islamic parasites, the majority of whom want to see the State of Israel and the Jewish people eradicated from the face of the planet in a nuclear fire. |

I think the anti white-male-ism is far more prevalent.
Desecrated statues, tombs, memorials.
White males being considered evil and guilty by default.
Protests against white males.
Incessant presentation of white males in the media as stupid and sexual predators. A target for ridicule and abuse.
White males actively discriminated against in employment.
White males consistently the most failing group in education.
Whites blamed for all the evils in the world.
I could go on... Let me know when the current anti-Semitism reaches these levels.

There seems to be an outbreak of erroneous conflationism in the world today;
Remoaners conflate anti-EU with anti-Europe
Corbyn haters conflate criticism of the conduct of the state of Israel with being anti-Semitic
Yesterday was a case in point.
Degsy, another grandstanding charlatan (albeit lacking the charm, verbosity and intellect of the cat man), found his revived membership of the Labour Party suspended for saying, in 2010, "Jewish people with any sense of humanity need to start speaking out publicly against the ruthless murdering being carried out by Israel".
I'm struggling to see what is anti-Semitic about that.
It's not too different to the many calls we heard in recent years for Muslims to be more public in their criticisms of terrorist acts carried out by so called Islamic fundamentalists who claim they are acting according to the Koran.
What I think, is the Labour Party, being the shambles it is, didn't either know Degsy was making a comeback or didn't understand the shitstorm it would create so bottled it and latched onto a tweet from 2010 as a way to control that problem. Of course, Labour being the Kings of incompetence, discovered putting the genie back in the bottle ain't easy. What they have done is pour petrol onto the fire.

It dilutes the impact when racism actually does exist (rather than just because you don't like somebody's opinion). |

Labour aren't anti-semitic. Diane Abbott was in tears after she watched Schindler's List 3. Ricky Gervais : I think Schindler's List is a fantastic film. And I didn't watch it at the cinema actually. I got it out on video, about a year later - by mistake - 'cause I'd never heard of it and I was in Blockbuster sort of late one night. I was a bit drunk, and I thought it was a porn film. No, 'cause I saw 18 certificate, top shelf. I thought, oh, black and white - dodgy home movie, German sounding - they're the best, and what swung it was that quote on the back from Barry Norman: "Have a box of Kleenex ready". Rubbish, I used about two. There was a shower scene. |

It appears from dictionary and encyclopedia explanations that semites are quite a varied range of peoples and not just jews.
