Who really represents British Jews?

It's certainly not who Corbyn thinks - that's a tiny minority. But Britain's 'official Jews' of the BoD, JLC and CST also only represent a tiny minority (namely the Left leaning and lukewarm supporters of Israel).

Note that the BoD officially takes the UK Government failed "Two State Solution" view on Israel and believes the whole of Judea and Samaria ('the West Bank') - and even East Jerusalem - must be part of a future Jew-free State of Palestine. Also note that, whereas the BoD/JLC includes (and some would say is increasingly dominated by) Yachad - an extreme leftist anti-Zionist group, they actually work against any groups or people who are strongly pro-Israel Zionist (by which I simply mean realists who believe that handing land to the Palestinians will not work). That is why the BoD/JLC do not represent the vast majority of British Jews - who tend to be centre/right and realists on Israel.

Update: I just responded on Facebook to a claim about the elected deputies in the BoD being representative with:
Irrespective of the deputies, the BoD is the organisation which lobbies to ban strongly pro-Israel speakers (Geller, Spencer, Im Turzu etc), works with Islamist groups to censor strong pro-Israel voices (Hopkins, Robinson etc), while at the same time being happy to engage with multiple Islamist antisemites. With the exception of the (very weak) Arkush the leadership is dominated by people whose idea of being 'pro-Israel' is to deligitimize Israel's democratically elected leaders. The BoD has NEVER represented the overwhelming majority of British Jews who support Israel unconditionally. And recent events have proven that the BoD is a complete waste of time since it has failed to prevent the mainstreaming of antisemitism.

Previously (and yes this is directed at BoD/JLC, CST etc):


And if the BoD really wanted to do something to stop the tsunami of antisemitism they would be devoting their efforts to exposing the lies and indoctrination of Palestinians - much of it funded by UK taxpayers - that drives modern antisemitism (disguised as anti-Zionism), along with the cult of 'Palestinianism' whose lies about the Jewish state are fed to those only too happy to believe so that they can promote their hidden antisemitism under the respectable guise of anti-Zionism.

A typical Corbyn supporter - why antisemitism is a vote winner for Labour

Note that this guy (Hugh Hicks) is still posting on twitter, while most people who raise concerns about real Islamic threats are banned.

David Lammy : supreme hypocrite and coward on 'antisemitism'

Like Baroness Warsi and many others - another great 'friend' of the Jewish community according to the Board of Deputies.

Why Corbyn’s Labour Party antisemitism is a net vote winner

Exposing the antisemitism of Corbyn's Labour Party is the right thing to do, but will make no difference (and may even win Corbyn more votes).

Understanding the Labour Party policy on antisemitism

Following the first day of today's Labour Party conference their policy on antisemitism can easily be summarised:


Today's events included:
  • calls to expel the 'Jewish Labour Movement' from the party (for refusing to accept that Israel was 'like the Nazis') 
  • Jewish writer David Collier banned from attending a meeting of the new Jewish labour group JVL (a group that seeks the destruction of Israel) for being too Jewish for them
  • multiple instances of antisemitism dressed up as 'anti-Zionism', with the worst proponents stating there was no such thing as antisemitism in the party

Letter from a (now former) Labour Party member

A friend has sent me the following letter that he wrote to his (Labour) MP and Party Chairman in April 2013 (i.e. over 3 years ago). Note the people (including soon-to-be Mayor of London Sadiq Khan and of course now leader Jeremy Corbyn) he identifies as being at the heart of the party's antisemitism problem. He did not get a reply to the letter and he did resign as a result.

Anybody who thinks the Enquiry into 'antisemitism and other forms of racism' set up by Corbyn is going to end in anything but this outcome is deluded.

Exclusive: Results of the Enquiry set up by Corbyn to investigate antisemitism and other forms of racism*



* Satire. But given that the Enquiry was set up by Corbyn to investigate 'other forms of racism' in addition to antisemitism, and given it is chaired by Chakrabarti - a woman who has yet to find an Islamic terrorist she does not seek to defend - do not expect the actual results to be much different.

16 May 2016 Update (this is not satire): Shami Chakrabarti joined the Labour Party the same day as being appointed the 'independent chair' of this enquiry.

1 July 2016 Update (not satire): The report has been published. Seems none of this was satire after all.

Nothing special about Naz Zhah - plenty more antisemites like her in the Labour Party

 

Naz Shah should consider herself unlucky because she was stupid enough not to remove the most blatantly antisemitic of her Facebook postings once she became a 'public figure'.

There are many others in the Labour Party whose views are identical to hers but who have been a bit more careful; they restrict their public displays of antisemitism to simply spewing blood libels against the Jewish State and denying it the right to defend itself against terrorists, while supporting those same terrorists. The party leader Jeremy Corbyn is one such person, although like Ken Livingstone and Gerald Kaufman he has at least come in for some genuine scrutiny. But why have so many others avoided it? In particular, it seems almost every Muslim Labour MP shares the exact same views as Naz Shah, so maybe their ethnicity puts them 'out of bounds' under the ludicrous assumption that 'minorities cannot possibly be racist'.

I therefore present a just a small sample of other antisemitic Labour MPs:
As I said in a previous post about the newly elected female Muslim NUS President, no matter how well educated and secular they are, it seems many immigrants (and their children) from Muslim countries can NEVER shake off their sense of Islamic supremacism and most of all their antisemitism. It is in their bones.

There are many more, but I will leave it up to our leaders at the Board of Deputies and CST to do the work  (yes that was a joke - the BoD and CST are much more likely to be providing support for the above MPs in 'combating Islamophobia). To date only a handful of bloggers (such as Richard Millett) have been highlighting the views of these people.

Update: Plenty of politicians have defended Naz Shah's antisemitism and not just Labour ones like Ken Livingstone and Rupa Huq. And what a surprise - they include Baroness Warsi.

Why are people surprised that Naz Shah is an antisemite - it did not need a Facebook investigation to find this out


So yet another Labour MP Naz Shah is exposed today as a vicious antisemite based on the above Facebook messages she posted (and incidentally she is one of 11 MPs appointed to investigate antisemitsm!). But why are people are surprised? Her views are no different to the Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn and, indeed, no different to the Labour mayoral candidate Sadiq Khan (who will almost certainly be elected, and whose well documented history of vicious antisemitic Israel hatred has been ignored by Britain's 'official' Jews who now bow down to him). In fact, a couple of months ago I posted the following about Naz Shah on Facebook when discussing the London mayoral election (in which Khan's has taken all of George Galloway's natural support):
However, much he has tried to cover it up in the last year, Khan's record on issues that matter to Muslims is pretty much the same as Galloway. So Khan made Galloway irrelevant in this election. Labour pulled the same trick successfully in the 2015 election by having candidate Naz Shah against Galloway. Naz Shah easily won, but that's mainly because her views on Israel are identical to Galloway's so she was assured the Muslim vote in preference to him. It was Naz Shah incidentally who recently stated that no Israelis have ever been killed by Palestinians throwing rocks. http://www.breitbart.com/london/2016/01/13/british-politician-claims-rock-throwing-palestinians-neither-killed-or-injured-israeli-children/
I also noted Naz Shah's views on Israel after last year's election. and Ben Judah has for a long time reported about her and Bradford politics. If you are able to delve deeply enough you will find the same antisemitic Israel-hating views in every 'progressive' Muslim politician. We just saw it with the newly elected NUS President Malia Bouattia. And it is not restricted to left-wing politicos. The most perfect example of all is 'Conservative' peer Baroness Warsi. As I said in my last post, no matter how well educated and secular they are, it seems many immigrants (and their children) from Muslim countries can NEVER shake off their sense of Islamic supremacism and most of all their antisemitism. It is in their bones.

And now expect the standard game to be played out as follows:
  1. Politician X is discovered to have made multiple antisemitic statements, supported terrorism against Israel and called for the destruction of the Jewish state.
  2. X says these statements do not represent their real views and/or were taken our of context.
  3. X says that he/she is a fierce anti-racist who loves Jews but disagrees with the policies of Zionists. 
  4. Media and other politicians claim that X is being smeared by a Zionist campaign of hatred.
  5. Board of Deputies issues a statement expressing concern, but follows it up by saying they now accept that X is in no way antisemitic and they look forward to a series of meetings with X, during which they will apologise for ever suggesting X was in any way antisemitic.
  6. X is promoted and appointed to chair a committee on antisemitism, and also becomes a much-loved media personality.

The Corbyns: their anti-Israel hatred is a hereditary compulsive obsessional disorder

The public face of Jeremy Corbyn's son Seb


The public face of Jeremy Corbyn's son Tommy
Jeremy Corbyn's son Ben with one of his heroes Gerry Adams - and sporting "Palestine: end the occupation" t-shirt
UPDATED 26 Feb 2016: Following on from this week's revelations that Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn really loves following antisemites on twitter, comes the news that his son Tommy (about whom I reported below) is the student who runs the anti-Israel group who arranged a performance of an antisemitic play at York University this week.

UPDATED 24 August 2015: It's a hat-trick!! All three of Corbyn's sons suffer from the same disorder as their father:

For anti-Semitic Israel haters the Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn and his family really are the gift that keeps on giving. Following on from the revelation that Ben Corbyn - Jeremy's son - uses his Facebook page to disseminate blood libels against Israel, it turns out that both his other sons  Tommy and Seb have the same compulsive urge to spew anti-Israel hatred in public. Although it seems Tommy has (since yesterday when Fair Brit tipped me off about this) changed read access to his Facebook posts to 'Friends only' his profile picture (still visible as shown above) tells you all you need to understand the depths of his Israel-hating obsession. And (update!) I can now confirm we have a hat-trick and full-house. Seb Corbyn's banner facebook profile - like his brother's - spews the destroy Israel "Free Palestine" message and, additionally for good measure, throws in the blood libel that Israel is massacring Palestinians and calls for sanctions against Israel.

Those who still maintain that Jeremy Corbyn "does not have an antisemitic bone in his body" might wish to explain why the one thing in the world that he and ALL his children actually seem to think and dream about more than anything else is the destruction of the tiny Jewish state, a place they all know nothing about and which has done them no harm?

Corbyn's obsession with following "anti-Israel" twitter accounts that do not hide their antisemitism

Jeremy Corby follows this antisemitic twitter account (click to enlarge)
Interesting to discover Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn is a Twitter follower* of an account called "Israel Apartheid".  To get a feel for how antisemitic this account is check out the very top followers in the above screenshot. But that's nothing compared to the antisemitism of an account called "Jew4Palestine", which coincidentally, Corbyn also follows. As you can see from the screenshot below the latest tweets on that account are actually all about the terrorist murders last December in San Bernandino committed by ISIS husband and wife Farooq and Tashveen Malik. "Jew4Palestine" clearly sympathizes with the terrorists and repeats the lie that Farooq was 'bullied at work" by a "Zionist Jew" But in typical confused and paranoiac antisemitic style you can see that "Jew4Palestine"also believes the Jews support ISIS....

Corbyn also follows this antisemitic account ... and many others (click to enlarge)
But these are by no means an aberration. I just checked the other 2000 or so accounts that Corbyn follows. I counted about 130 'Palestine' related sites that are primarily focused on boycotting Israel and pumping out anti-Israel propaganda. Most of these also contain virulent antisemitic blood libels. Moreover, Corbyn's anti-Israel obsession is not balanced with an interest in any other foreign country. Apart from a handful of accounts supporting communist or socialist parties in countries such as Venezuela, Corbyn has no interest at all in any foreign affairs other than his hatred of the Jewish State.

It is also interesting to note that, with the exception of accounts relating to Left wing organisations and people (including the Communist Party), the only other 'political' accounts he follows are those of  Islamic charities, and commentators known for their obsessive hatred of Israel.

A small selection of some of the many dozens of anti-Israel accounts that Corbyn follows
Of course, as I pointed out previously (see links below), Corbyn has managed to pass on his obsessive hatred for the Jewish State to his three sons. I just checked the twitter account of Ben Corbyn. He follows just 76 accounts, most of which are football related. The only 'political' accounts he follows are:
See also:
*"Following" a twitter account does not mean that you support the ideas of the person or organisation. Indeed it is useful to follow accounts of people you fundamentally disagree with in order to find out what they are up to and respond to their lies (which is why, for example, I "follow" Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn). But that does not apply to politicians. If, for example, David Cameron was found to be a follower of the British National Party then that would be a major scandal. So only Jeremy Corbyn can explain his obsession for following antisemitic accounts.

Watford FC take 'action' against Corbyn's son Ben for his anti-Israel blood libel postings

This is an update to this story I posted a couple of weeks ago about Jeremy Corbyn's son Ben who was using his Facebook page for the dual purpose of publicizing his Watford FC affiliation and pushing anti-Israel propaganda including blood libels.  

I have had the following response from Richard Walker who is Head of Media & Communications at Watford FC: 
Hello Edgar

 Thank you very much indeed for bringing the below matter to our attention, since we were unaware of the material which had been posted. 

We have acted swiftly as a club and have taken the appropriate action.

 All best wishes - and thanks once again for your correspondence. 

Regards Richard
I have followed up asking exactly what the 'appropriate action' was. Also I know another person who wrote a letter to Watford FC over two weeks ago who has not yet had a response.  What is interesting is that, in his rambling acceptance speech yesterday, Jeremy Corbyn complained about the media attacking his family which is curious since I reckon I might be only person who has attempted to expose the disgusting views of his sons. I doubt if Corbyn is aware of my blog, but maybe the fact that Watford took some action against his son as a result of my 'probe' is what riled him. If so - good.

Can a Marxist, Western-hating, anti-Israel bigot be elected leader of the country?

Most people are assuming that Corbyn can never be elected Prime Minister. Obviously, a Marxist, Western-hating, anti-Israel bigot could never be elected leader of a major English speaking country ...

The only main difference is that Obama really did enjoy slavish devotion by the entire main stream media - which is unlikely Corbyn will get from the UK. But note that Corbyn will enter into an electoral pact with the SNP, Greens, Welsh Nationalists and Respect (all of whom have identical views to him) while also taking 90% of the LibDem votes. Even on the 2015 results that will create a majority far-left block, which will result in Corbyn as PM. Dangerous times ahead.

Corbyn finally responds properly to the JC questions and confirms he is not an antisemite*



Exclusive: I managed to get Jeremy Corbyn to finally answer the questions posed by the Jewish Chronicle*:

Question 1. What is your response to people who have accused you of being an antisemite?
The only people who have made such an astonishing, disgusting and libellous accusation are a bunch of Zionist Jews. The very same people, I may add, who hold racist views such as believing that Jews have the right to self-determination in their own homeland, and the same people who go around massacring millions of Muslim Palestinian children every day just for fun. To stop these ridiculous accusations of antisemitism thrown at me once and for all, I want to make it crystal clear that I believe that every non-Zionist Jew has a right to exist. Indeed, some of my very best friends in the whole world are ethical anti-Zionist Jews who are active in organisations like JFBDJS (Jews for the Boycott and Destruction of the Jewish State).Moreover, not only do I have such Jews as my best friends, but I have ensured that every one of my sons has a genuine devotion to the Jewish people as demonstrated in an almost obsessional interest in Palestine. Specifically, we all know that the only way to save the Jewish people from themselves is by ensuring the end of Israel as a Jewish state so that Jews no longer have to be embarrassed – as Jews - by Israel during dinner party conversations. We cannot tolerate the idea of a faith-based state, which is why we are fighting for Israel to be replaced by a State of Palestine run by Hamas and governed by Islamic Sharia Law. When that day comes it will be a wonderful moment of redemption for the Jewish people.
Question 2. Why do you associate with Hamas and Hezbollah and refer to them as your “friends” and invite them to Tea at the Houses of Parliament?
I meet with representative of Hamas, and Hezbollah because I believe that all sides and all views in the Middle East must be heard and because without such discussions there can be never be peace. This is also why I will never share a platform with any Zionist (including any Israeli Zionist politician) and why I have demanded the arrest of the Israeli Prime Minister and, indeed, any other Israeli who steps foot in the UK. However, to give an indication of how inclusive and diverse my strategy is, I can tell you that I also invited senior members of the ISIS and Al Qaeda organisations to tea; during those meetings there was a unanimous agreement that, should I become Prime Minister, I will immediately break-off diplomatic relations with the USA and Israel and expel all of their diplomats (who are actually just state terrorists).
Question 3. Why did you describe Raed Salah, an Islamist hate preacher convicted of the blood libel, as an ‘honoured citizen’ and why did you invite him to Tea at the Houses of Parliament?
Just because someone says things like  'Jews bake their Matzahs with the blood of Muslim and Chistrian children'  and  'all Jews are sons of apes and pigs and must be slaughtered' does not make them antisemitic. On the contrary it means that such people are radical thinkers with whom we must engage at all costs. In any case Jewish groups such as JAISDAJ  (Jews for Antisemitic Imams Seeking the Death of All Jews) were in total agreement with my invitation to Raed Salah. They joined me for tea and we had a very fruitful meeting leading to a unanimous agreement to make any criticism of Islam a criminal offence (and a capital offense for Zionists).
Question 4. What do you think of the Iran deal?
As a leader of both CND and the Stop the War movement  I have campaigned all my life for the abolition of nuclear weapons and all war. So, I fully support this deal because it enables the peace-loving Islamic Republic of Iran to acquire nuclear weapons and gives them $150 billion immediately in cash to fund the liberation of Palestine, and support resistance groups fighting imperialists all over the world. Also, as somebody who has campaigned all his life for equal rights for homosexuals and other minorities, I am delighted that this deal does not require the Ayatollahs to stop their policy of murdering homosexuals and minorities - thus ensuring no attempt at imperialist intervention into Iran's internal affairs.
* satire but not much different to the reality. And just to really prove that latter, when I posted a link to this article as a comment on Corbyn's facebook page this is the immediate response I got from 'Kamla Adiedeshiah':
Kamla Adiseshiah Cheap shot. That's obviously not JC: JC speaks and writes proper sentences and is an anti racist. The Israeli state is a murderous rogue military state that had been committing a burning genocide of Palestinians. Zionism is fascism and any anti fascist Jew rejects it.
So, in the eyes of Corbyn's supporters any Jew who supports Israel is indeed a fascist. And you will be pleased to know that Kamla who 'knows' about 'proper sentences' without apparently being able to write one herself, is Head of Casework at Public Law Project, Chief Assessor, Immigration and Asylum Accreditation Scheme at the Law Society and Visiting Lecturer at the University of Westminster. She was also previously at Sutovic and Hartigan Solicitors and Asylum Aid.

Update: Letter to Watford FC about employee Ben Corbyn's blood libels against Israel

Ben Corbyn with one of his heroes Gerry Adams - and sporting "Palestine: end the occupation" t-shirt
13 Sept 2015: See yet another important update.

Following my article earlier today about Jeremy Corbyn's son Ben's deeply offensive facebook postings I have written to Watford FC:

Dear Watford FC

I would like to bring to your attention some of the facebook postings of one of your employees Ben Corbyn that are highlighted in the article here:

http://edgar1981.blogspot.co.uk/2015/08/corbyns-son-ignorant-brainswashed.html

While the Facebook page clearly publicizes Corbyn's Watford FC affiliation and activities, it is interspersed with many postings that are deeply offensive not just to Jewish people, but anybody who does not support terrorists and Marxist dictators.

The postings push anti-Israel blood libel stories which have proven to be false, including the particularly offensive story about Palestinian children killed in a school. Like the related stories of Israeli attacks on hospitals, that incident turned out to be the result of a misfired rocket by Hamas (and if you choose to ignore the many Israeli reports at the time proving the rockets were from Hamas, then see this report in the Times, based on evidence from Amnesty International**: http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/news/world/middleeast/article4392976.ece)

As a private individual Ben Corbyn has every right to say or write what he likes providing it is within the law, but his facebook page is also clearly being written as part of his Watford FC persona. If he wishes to push his political views then they should be somewhere else and NOT on a page where there is a clear Watford FC affiliation, since Watford FC (and others interested in football) should not be subject to such propaganda when they are looking for Watford FC related material.

I would therefore expect an organisation like Watford FC to ask their employees to ensure that Watford FC is not in any way associated with a website they maintain that pushes political propaganda. I also expect Watford FC to ensure that its employee publishes a retraction and an apology for the blood-libel stated above.

Yours

Edgar Davidson
**Amnesty International is an organisation which generally bends over backwards to support Palestinian lies as can be seen from here: http://elderofziyon.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Gaza%20Platform#.VdoLR_TFrs6
Postscipt: I wonder why the Board of Deputies of British Jews leaves it to people like me to raise these sort of concerns. Oh I forgot - it's because of this.

NEW UPDATE. The Corbyns: their anti-Israel hatred is a hereditary compulsive obsessional disorder
