Hey man calling out Israel as an apharteid state is antisemitism. How you are supposed to have any kind of dialog about what the Israelis are doing in the West Bank without it being branded as antisemitism is beyond me. Calling out say China for its human rights abuses doesn’t brand one a sinophobe nor does calling out Qatar for their use of slave labour brand one anti Arab. This seems to be unique to Israel. And given the history of persecution against the Jews and let’s face it there is at least a bit of anti Jewish racism out there, for a politician to say anything about Israel it is political suicide. Why we can separate the actions of a state from the actions of a people in pretty much every other circumstance is beyond me. I agree with your assessment. I’m not mad for Jeremy Corbin or any of the current crop of UK politicians, but I agree his anti Israel stance has merit. We had similar problems in Ireland for like…800 years. And we only got peace when we agreed to basically share the north and treat both sides with dignity and respect. Both catholic and Protestant voices are heard now and we have peace. My mother was left permanently deaf when her office was bombed. Nothing like that has happened in 20 years. Children are being born to parents who have only known peace. And all this because we could talk about it. Until dialog can be had with Israel without the antisemite flag being waved both they and Palestine are doomed to this shit.
