The EHRC has submitted it's findings to the Labour party on 10:01 - Jun 30 by GlasgowBlue | As the Labour front bencher in the video I linked (sorry his name escapes me) says, it’s just a continuation of the “Everything bad that happens in the world is the fault of the Jews” trope. Or the “Jews pulling the strings from behind the scenes trope”. These people just think that blaming Israel for everything bad that happens in the world or accusing Israel of pulling the strings from behind the scenes adds a sheen of respectability to their racism. But their racism is revealed by the very fact that it’s always exclusively the world’s only Jewish state that they continue to apply these conspiracies to. I mean who sees a racist American cop murder a black man, as Americans have done for centuries, and tries to shoehorn Israel into the conversation? It deflects from the institutional racism in American society and shifts the blame on the Israel. Once again. [Post edited 30 Jun 2020 10:06]

I disagree. And we are both entitled to disagree with each other. But you are very guilty of using the word “Zionist” as if it’s dirty. Zionism is the belief that Jewish people have the right to self determination in their historical homeland. As Martin Luther King said, “when people criticise Zionists, they mean Jews. You are talking Antisemitism” Whenever you use the word Zionism you tend to deliberately shoehorn people like Tommy Robinson into the sentence in order to associate Zionism with far right racism. You know what you are doing. It’s deliberate. It’s no different to when people shoehorn Bin Laden unto a conversation about Islam. Or Muslim paedophile gangs. It’s a deliberate tactic used to highlight the very worst side of an Ethno-religious group. |  |

No, it's wrong. Criticism of Israel and its involvement overseas can be a continuation of the trope that "the Jews are controlling things behind the scenes" Not "is just a continuation". Pretending Peake meant that is your continuation based on nothing else. And Zionism is a lot of things. When it's used politically and/or in a racist way then it's something that can be freely criticised on those grounds. It's bad faith to assume anti-Zionism is antisemitism or indeed anti- an Israeli state and a safe haven for Jews. |  |

The EHRC has submitted it's findings to the Labour party on 20:56 - Jun 29 by BlueBadger | Chances are, the Tories will be even more half-arsed about dealing with it than Labour with antisemitism. There's a large Labour base(and base of people who were turned off them by it) appalled by antisemitism. Not so much so with the Tories and Islamophobia, I'd bet. [Post edited 29 Jun 2020 21:23]

I think Johnson's gone down the bantz route of being racist or phobic about every single minority group over the years. It's quite clever as he's normalised his own behaviour. Added to which he's made the moral majority complicit for not calling it out sooner. |  |

I think the link from 'The Prole Star ("left-wing alternative news blog" according to wiki) you posted via twitter on page 2 of this thread illustrates the point you're trying to make rather neatly in its third para (if you leave out the distortion of it in the shape of dragging Miliband's name in) - "The Jewish population in Israel is 74.2%. The Christian population of the United States is 73.7%. A criticism of the United States, true or false, would never be seen as racism, or hatred of Christians collectively. The state of Israel and Jews are two different entities. " As I said in the other recent 9-pager re RLB's sacking - with anti-semitism being called out much more recently, it may well be that it's gone more "underground", with "Israel" being substituted for "Jewish". That could perhaps act as a flag for other anti-semitic individuals or groups; or be intended to act in a subliminal, Derren Brown kind of way, to try and influence uncommitted people; or both. It certainly doesn't help when Jewish organisations themselves conflate "Jews and/or Israel" and call Israel "the Jewish State" as in the CST article you linked in the other thread. As DK says, in being turned back on itself it's become even more horribly messy now. All the more reason for everyone to keep insisting on avoiding conflation, keeping discussion and use of the words "Israel" and "Jewish" separate, and pointing the conflation up where it's already happened. |  |

The EHRC has submitted it's findings to the Labour party on 07:41 - Jun 30 by GlasgowBlue | There really is no point viewing your posts. You contribute nothing but insults that are exclusively aimed at me. Yiu contribute nothing else. Your entire existence on here seems to be following me around like a live sick teenager. Your avatar Was designed for no other reason than to bait me. You were forced by admin to change it twice as each time it contained a racist message. In it’s latter incarnation you even tippexed out the racists message about the slogan. If I respond to you it only encourages you to continue. If I ignore you then you tend to disappear from the board for a long period of time, as your entire reason for being here Is removed. For that reason you are now back on the div list. |
As this is now my third visit to your naughty step, can you let me know whether you intend to run a loyalty scheme for repeat customers? Thanks in advance. |  | |  |

That's a decent showing. How many threats to report you to mysterious 'relevant outside bodies' though? |  |
