egg Posted 21 February, 2019 Share Posted 21 February, 2019 This apparent labour anti semitism. I've just seen the tweet from 2012 that led to Derek Hatton being suspended. In a tweet in 2012, he urged "Jewish people with any sense of humanity" to condemn Israel's "ruthless murdering". In what way is that anti semitic? His issue is with the Israeli government actions, not the Jewish people, their faith, and he doesn't question the right of Israel to exist. Am I missing something? Sure he's a militant cock, but based on that tweet he's not an anti semite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a different issue and you ignore mine. My question (with emphasis added so you don't miss it) is how is expressing and urging criticism of a GOVERNMENT and its policies amount to racism against a RACE OF PEOPLE?

Verbal Posted 21 February, 2019 Share Posted 21 February, 2019 What's egg got on his face? Anyway, here's a 360-degree example of how toxic antisemitism is in Labour, and how Labour demonstrates that institutional Jew-hating is firmly rooted in the party. This audio... https://news.sky.com/story/sir-duncan-michael-labour-members-jewish-slur-not-deemed-antisemitic-by-party-11638591?dcmp=snt-sf-twitter ...records Wimbledon CLP member Sir (!) Duncan Michael saying, then deny saying, that the 'Jewish community plans to attack our party.' It also records the very audibly shocked reactions of CLP members in the room, including a Corbynista Jewish Voice for Labour member. So quite an uncontroversial instance - a slam dunk - of antisemitism, which was deplored at the time by those who heard it, many of whom reported it, expecting censure at the very least. But when the incident was adjudicated by the Labour party it ruled: 'the Labour party does not believe this is an incident of antisemitism and will not be taken further.' Do you get this one, egg? Or are we going to have to go through dozens of posts to point out where the actual antisemitism is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Duckhunter Posted 21 February, 2019 Share Posted 21 February, 2019 (edited) The only thing Degsy has done wrong is embarrass the party with a series of “I’m back” interviews on the day the Blair Switch project was launched. If he said “any chicks that don’t condemn Mrs T’s economic policy, clearly lack humanity”, would that be sexist? Of course not. What’s happened is that silly fool Gardiner and other virtue signallers realised it was a bad look to have him back, so made a fuss. Their attitude is to ignore the anti Semites running the show but show they won’t tolerate it by suspending a 71 year old has been.

Especially when the party is trying to get away institutional antisemitism? As I say, it was stupid and misguided, but we need to get away from this perception and belief that speaking out against the Israeli government is antisemitic. I deplore the behaviour of the Israeli government, its occupation of the West Bank, settlements, blockade of Gaza etc etc but I have no issue with Jews, Judaism and agree that there should be an Israeli state. If I were a labour member (I'm far from it) my views would probably deem me antisemitic. Hatton seemingly had that view and yes he was wrong to seek to get support for his views from Jewish people and use the words that he did, but fundamentally his principle of criticising Israel was not antisemitic, although the delivery was wrong.
