Jeremy Corbyn - Not Not Labour Party(?), not a Communist (BBC)

You as a Muslim (which, lets face it, is the real reason you are Pro Palestinian) are more than aware of the antisemitism that sadly emanates from coreligionists - Islamic antisemitism is nothing new.

If the Palestinians weren't Muslim, and the Israeli's weren't Jews, nobody would give a toss. Including Corbyn.

I'm anti-racist and that's why I'm anti Israel
 
Like I was saying earlier, this has little to do with anti-sematism, way more about the apartheid state of Israel wishing to shut down criticism

I'm reading a lot of complaints about anti semitism from British Jews who are neither religious nor who hold a particular torch for Israel. I think the burden is on the rest of us to give them a fair hearing. So maybe it's time to listen.

They marched in response to call from the British board of deputies which definitely has a zionist agenda
 
The insinuation there's something questionable when Corbyn breaks bread with Hezbollah is a smear but if Normal Tebbit turns up to the march you're on you definitely haven't faced antisemitism.

You're right, Norman Tebbit and Ian Paisley Jr were definitely there because of their life long fights against bigotry in all forms. It wasn't at all a political stunt.
 
It's just interesting how the rule of condemnation by association works. Call terrorists your 'friends' you're fine, believe as a member of a minority that you've suffered discrimination because you're a member of that minority and you find yourself standing within a 30 feet of a Tory MP (outside Parliament of all places, what are the odds?) you have no credibility at all.

Maybe if a black person claims they've experienced racism it can be debunked by finding an issue on which they share agreement with a politician I dislike.

That's how it works, right?

So, what time is the rally again? I must have missed the one after Anne Marie Morris was reinstated too.

You genuinely think Ian Paisley Jr and Norman 'Cricket test' Tebbit were at the march because they're against bigotry and intolerance of minorities?
 
So publicly supporting Hamas and Hezbollah, denying the existence of a genocide in Kosovo and marching through the lobby with Tory MPs dozens and dozens of times are the actions of a principled man.

If you're Jewish and want to make a point about antisemitism you're not allowed if Ian Paisley jnr is nearby.

Cool.

I’m not referencing the March. I’m talking about Jews who are neither Zionists nor religious. Do you think they deserve a hearing? Yes or no?

Oh no no no, you said they share agreement on the subject with him and Norman Tebbit. Suddenly, after decades upon decades of discriminating against minorities in religion, ethnicity and sexuality, Ian and Norman saw the light. The battle against bigotry has begun, with Paisley and Tebbit leading the charge
 
FYI Ian Paisley Jr also loves his motorbikes, just incase any of you do as well. Shame on you.
 
To be fair if the above argument isn't the very essence of the hypocrisy of Corbyn fanatics then I really do not know what is. Think of how many times the associations that this man has deliberately chosen to make have been defended, with question marks over his judgement in many instances being dismissed as "smears"

What's the argument our resident #No1 Corbyn fan uses - "look, they're standing near Normal Tebbit, therefore they lack credibility"

There it is folks, in a nutshell. Peak Corbynista.

I do think aspects of the march were largely opportunistic (Paisley is an utter cnut after all) but him hopping on the bandwagon for a particular subject doesn't automatically discredit its more serious proponents.

Especially when those on the march had no choice who joined them and who didn't. Like on any match there's an element of opportunism as you say. Dismissing Jews who claim to have experienced antisemitism is completely expected dirty trick from people happy to smear anyone and anything to protect dear leader.

At it's core we have Jews expressing their fear about antisemitism. In response you have Corbyn apologists groping for any excuse to ignore and dismiss that fear on the basis of little other than "someone I dont like was there". As I say when you consider how many of his questionable associations these same people have been at pains to defend and dismiss since he became leader that's really quite extraordinary.
 


To be fair to them that councillor who posted that article might share a star sign with Nick Griffin. Therefore is it really antisemitic to deny the holocaust or simply standing up against Zionism?

The problem you have is that you seem to place very real problems of antisemitism within the Labour Party all on the shoulders of Corbyn. It isn't that simple, and it's dishonest.

A good analogy. Much like political parties where anyone can join if they pay the fee.

Does it discredit their demands? No.

Just don't go 'Look how many people turned out against discrimination in the Labour Party' when a healthy portion of them are Tory MPs happy to share a party with Anne Marie Morris (who was reinstated without the masses seeing fit to march in protest), Boris Johnson and Norman fecking Tebbit.

It is opportunism. Though there are sizable Jewish sections of the population (including Labour members) who have genuine concerns.

Entryism will be partly to blame, which Corbyn might get blame for in turn (that entryism being linked to Momentum). Though you can't control how many insane people will misrepresent what you say or believe.

I don't place the blame at Corbyn other than I think he's been slow to accept the full scope of the problem. The Chakrabarti was a shameful attempt to whitewash the issue and I think he either hasn't appreciated the issue's importance or has been hugely incompetent and inadequate at facing it.

With that background when a large section of his support seem to be focused on discrediting jews who say they're fearful of the level of antisemitism within the party, it isn't a good look. In 2018 supporters of the leader of the Labour party protested a protest against racism. It's optimistic to say that doesn't look incredibly shit however you dress it up.

I'd largely agree with that, only I'd add that some within the party have exploited the matter from the get-go (back when they forced a second Corbyn election).
 
Given the hero's send off he was given, I can only assume the antisemitism issue in the Labour Party has only gotten started since Iain McNicol resigned. Because all these Labour people who turned up at the march would look a little stupid if it occurred under his watch given their disappointment at him leaving.

Or maybe the people making those bigoted remarks just kept their fondness for Foo Fighters quiet.
 
Why does the issue seem to arise at election time?
The timing of this and the last furore, make it seem like an orchestrated attack on Corbyn.
Having a complete ignorance of the effect at election time, doesn't appear to be the behaviour of party members with winning as their main aim.

Apart from opposing apartheid and oppression against Palestinians by the state of Israel, how is Corbyn displaying anti-Semitism (which aren't mutually entwined)?
How do others, including her majesty's government, compare more favourably, and escape the demonstrations and criticism?

An election?! Not another one!

It's obviously a Zionist Conspiracy that has absolutely nothing to do with previous Jewish ones.
 
I can only assume that @Dobba sees them as some sort of standard of evil that would undermine any protest they attended regardless of the nature of it.
It's supposedly an anti-discrimination march. If Paisley and Tebbit can turn up and pose for selfies and laughably hypocritical twitter videos without being told to feck off, it isn't doing its job. Almost as if having as many people turn up as possible was the priority, rather than the message that discrimination in political parties is unacceptable everyone insists it was trying to send.

Nothing political about this

You cynic.

Very specific i wonder why it doesn't cover other areas of discrimination. No discrimination or immigrant bashing at tory council meetings nop nothing to see :wenger:

It hasn't. This has been bubbling under for a long time if you have been paying attention.

Because the impression is that he's ignored it, or not seen it as important in and of itself, or not taken sufficient responsibility, or looked the other way when in the presence of known anti semites.
 
That is fecking despicable, how can they get away with that shit?
Leave.EU is essentially just UKIP isn't it? Aaron Banks thing that lost out to Vote Leave as the official campaign. I doubt they've ever worried too much about looking a tad racist.
