https://www.theguardian.com/politics...emitism-claims
Leaked minutes show Labour at odds over antisemitism claims. Multiple sources have alleged that suspended members who were perceived as being sympathetic to Corbyn were defended, even when the evidence against them was overwhelming. |

It was a question, did you miss the question mark?
Why does it matter if someone thinks a person looks Jewish? Why are you making something out of nothing and ignoring all Corbyn and the Labour parties very obvious antisemitic slurs. Come on Kizzy, stop diverting to trivial nonsense and answer a direct question for once. Last edited by jet; 08-04-2018 at 01:39 AM. |

With regard the looking Jewish conversation, there are people of many faith's who wear a sort of religious uniform in clothing, headwear, even in beard style for some men that make them identifyable as being Jewish or Muslim or Mormon or Amish for instance. I don't think it was meant in an offensive way to say someone looks Jewish. Of course there are many people who don't follow a certain dress code too but there are also those who do.

Labour's Dipu Ahad has been confirmed as one of the party's candidates in next month's local elections. This man has posted numerous anti-Semitic comments and yet they're still allowing him to stand.
Imagine if he'd been accused of being anti-Muslim. This has been a source of discussion for my family, and I'm sure many Jewish families. And the consensus is this: the scariest thing about this whole affair is how many people are willing to stand up and argue that the party does not have a problem with anti-Semitism. We're told in the Torah that every generation of Jew will face hard trials and tribulations... well, that's one bit that it would be difficult to argue against. |

I KNOW when someone is Jewish or not - especially - when I have talked to them 'up close'.
What I also KNOW, is when a thread about (NOT SO) 'Secret Anti-Semitism in the Labour Party' is being derailed and potential posts DEFLECTED not only by members causing a ridiculous hoo-ha by bringing in a question of whether I am being anti-Semitic or not because I used the innocent term 'Jewish-Looking' but also being derailed by members bringing in the non-relevant subject of Israel. Deflection often happens because those deflecting have NO argument. I am NOT the thread topic here and NOR is Israel.

http://www.jpost.com/Diaspora/Antise...uarters-549131 “The Jewish community demonstrated two weeks ago to say that enough is enough," Falter said in a statement released Sunday. "Since then, matters have deteriorated further and our disciplinary complaint against Jeremy Corbyn has been met with an initial rejection that is nothing more than a hurried whitewash designed to protect Mr. Corbyn without even the formality of an investigation. We cannot stand for this. This afternoon, Jews and non-Jews alike will converge from all over Britain to demonstrate at 2 p.m. outside Labour Head Office, demanding that Labour fulfills its duty to hold Mr. Corbyn to account, and we will of course appeal Ms. Formby’s predetermined decision." “We call for justice and justice is all that will do," he added. "Under Jeremy Corbyn, Labour has become a safe haven for racists. He is at home amongst them, having spent his political career seeking out and giving succor to Holocaust deniers, genocidal antisemitic terrorist groups and a litany of Jew-haters. Labour must lead by example and show that Jeremy Corbyn is bound by the same rules as Leader as he was as a backbencher, by investigating the disciplinary complaint we have filed against him for bringing the Party into disrepute.” Last edited by jet; 08-04-2018 at 11:17 AM. |

The party have become a law unto themselves and clearly believe themselves to be beyond reproach. Can you imagine the total catastrophe caused by such a party in government! Last edited by Brillopad; 08-04-2018 at 11:21 AM. |

No its not. There are black Jews, Caucasian Jews, Arabic Jews. Judaism has no specific characteristics.

You are not really in any position to complain as you champion the man who made that disgusting remark about the mural and languidly tolerates antisemitism in the party of which he is leader. Hypocritical much? |

As for the Jewish people he met, for years he's been in full contact with non-Zionist Jews. This wasn't anything new. The bottom line is, Corbyn doesn't sit on Zionisms political side and is therefore seen as a very real threat.

Can you tell us exactly what he has DONE about the problem in the last few weeks that has sent out a crystal clear message that he won't tolerate antisemitism? |
