I’ve found the whole Jeremy Corbyn and Labour antisemitism saga hugely entertaining. Way better than anything Netflix has to offer, I can tell you. Just sit back with a large bottle of schadenfreude and enjoy the show. It rarely gets better than this.

The President of the Board of Deputies, Marie van der Zyl, ratchets up the Labour antisemitism row by declaring that “It’s like Jeremy Corbyn has declared war on the Jews” during an appearance on Israeli television.

        ...where there will be all these little boys..

Diversity Macht Frei, ““I strongly believe in our shared destiny as Jews and Muslims”, 5 Sept 2018:

Barely having caught their breath from their latest denunciations of Corbyn, Britain’s top Jews have launched broadsides against one of their own.

The target? Rabbi Menahem Lester. His crime? Declaring that “Islam has no place in Europe and certainly not in Britain”. And, observing the complicity of his fellow Jews in the Muslim invasion, the good rabbi ends on an ominous note:

“I’m wondering where Judaism now fits.”

Rabbi Menahem Lester – a good Jew?

These statements were made in a brief letter to a low-circulation newspaper, the Jewish News.

It’s a measure of how protective the top Jews feel towards Islam that even this minor outburst in a minor outlet provokes a massive denunciatory response. Whenever a “Good Jew” candidate appears, other Jews round on him as if he were the most monstrous of traitors. Telling.

Note particularly the remarks of Rabbi Laura Janner-Klauser, whose father Greville Janner, one of the world’s most prominent Jews - an alleged serial rapist of goyim children and lifelong criminal who never saw justice thanks to mysterious failures within the “justice system”.

  “I strongly believe in our shared destiny as Jews and Muslims.”

Greville Janner and his daughter Laura, a monster and his spawn

Greville Janner, too, was a passionate defender of Muslims. As Vice-President of the World Jewish Congress, he denounced the French burka ban in 2004; and he co-founded the Coexistence Trust, an organisation designed to bring Muslim and Jewish political leaders together. Janner also wrote a book about Muslim-Jewish collaboration called “One hand cannot clap”.

The Jewish Chronicle article follows:

Jewish leaders have condemned a former South London Synagogue minister for saying Islam has “no place” in Britain.

In a letter to the Jewish News, Rabbi Menahem Lester said he disagreed with Boris Johnson’s remarks about Muslim women wearing burkas and attacked the paper for reports it ran criticising the comments.

Mr Johnson had likened women wearing face-coverings to “letter boxes” and “bank robbers”.

Rabbi Lester said countries that have banned the burka had done so for “good reason.”

He wrote: “I am among many who feel Islam has no place in Europe and certainly not in Britain.”

He said the burka “represents the imposition of Muslim influence over their surroundings.

“I disagree with Boris Johnson- the burka should be banned-but I agree with his attempt to lighten the atmosphere. The British were once known for their sense of humour and maybe the Jews also; only Islam is intolerant and has no sense of humour,” he wrote.

Edie Friedman, executive director of the Jewish Council for Racial Equality said Rabbi Lester’s comments were “so outrageous I didn’t even think it came from a real person.

“It doesn’t take much imagination to think how Jews would feel if the same was said about Judaism.

“Such coarsening of public discourse threatens the very social cohesion on which we all depend. We really need to take a step back and make sure we are able to discuss issues in an unemotional manner, free from bigotry.”

Rabbi Laura Janner-Klausner, Reform Judaism’s senior rabbi said: “As a British rabbi I reject the letter and the statement that Islam has no place in Europe.

“I strongly believe in our shared destiny as Jews and Muslims.”

She added: “We have to remain vigilant. These attitudes that are expressed about Islam and Muslims will affect Jews and the same with what is said about Jews will affect Muslims.”

Rabbi David Mason, of Muswell Hill Synagogue, also condemned the comments.

“As a Rabbinic leader I have taken great comfort in developing solid relationships between my local community and local Muslim communities.

“When people attack Islam or Muslims in what they say or write, it may be helpful for them to substitute our identity for Islam. We need to be overly careful not to offend others in ways that against us, these very words would be wholly hurtful.”

Other figures in the Jewish community condemned Mr Johnson’s comments, including Jonathan Goldstein, the chairman of the Jewish Leadership Council, who said his remarks were “totally disgraceful”.

Adrian Cohen, the chairman of the London Jewish Forum, said Mr Johnson’s remarks “should be of grave concern” the Jewish community.

NPR, “Labour Party To Adopt International Definition Of Anti-Semitism”, 5 Sept 2018.

(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)

JEREMY CORBYN: I’m sorry for the hurt that’s been caused to many Jewish people. We have been too slow in processing disciplinary cases of mostly online, anti-Semitic abuse by party members. People who hold anti-Semitic views have no place in the Labour Party.

LANGFITT: Many Jewish groups are especially uncomfortable with Corbyn because he’s long been a supporter of the Palestinian cause. And Britain’s right-wing press, who hate Corbyn because he’s a socialist, have been happy to trash him and the party leadership as they floundered on the issue. Adam Walker, who’s Jewish and works as a barrister focusing on human rights, says yesterday’s decision was a good first step towards addressing the fears of many in the Jewish community.

[POST-BROADCAST CORRECTION: In this report, Adam Wagner is mistakenly referred to as Adam Walker.]

ADAM WAGNER: I think that this is really the beginning, and certainly not the end, of this issue being resolved, if it can be resolved.

LANGFITT: Now the party will have to apply the international definition it’s just adopted.

WAGNER: Labour have the most unbelievably difficult task ahead of them because they have 600,000 members, and they effectively have to police their members for anti-Semitism.
