Labour's anti-Semitism 'crisis'

If people are actually falling for this ‘anti-Semitism crisis in Labour’ nonsense then really, I give up.

Corbyn is pro-Palestine and anti-Israeli occupation of their land. The Israel Lobby in the UK, which is quite powerful, will thus be making efforts to have him ousted. (Watch Al Jazeera’s The Lobby, and Channel 4’s Dispatches: Inside Britain’s Israel Lobby, on YouTube).

Corbyn is socialist and wants to take on the capitalist system. Those who currently benefit from this system and do not wish to see their taxes rise etc, are thus looking for any way in which to smear him... communist spy, Hamas supporter, anti-Semite... whatever.

It doesn’t take a genius to see what is happening. Anti-semitism has been weaponised, in a disgraceful attempt at smearing a lifelong anti-racist campaigner, because the powers that be, and the Israel Lobby, fear his policies.

Remember: Corbyn was fighting against racism when most politicians were complicit in it. He has consistently been on the right side of history in matters of injustice and war&peace, unlike most in his profession!

It seems to me that the most guilty of anti-Semitism right now are those who are disregarding the opinions from the many Jewish people and groups who agree with what I have just said. Winston Churchill once referred to communist/non-Zionist Jews as 'bad Jews', and blamed all revolutions of the 19th century on them. It seems that history is repeating.



NB I am not saying that anti-Semitism is non-existent in Labour. There are 600,000 members. Realistically there are bound to be a few racists, of all kinds, amongst them. It is the insistence that there is a 'crisis' that is blatant propaganda.

CNN - CIA News Network

CNN and co are furious that Trump dismissed the so-called conclusions of US intelligence. It’s hilarious.

How dare he point out the bleedin obvious - that the FBI never analysed the DNC servers. How dare he attack the reliability of Mueller and co - the same guys who lied about Iraqi WMDs.

Please never watch this ‘news’ channel. Unless you really like being lied to/manipulated by a bunch of delusional American supremacists.

The one (and probably only) good thing about Trump is that he doesn’t seem to give a shit about maintaining Empire alliances, or respecting that ‘official enemies’ must remain enemies (...except Iran). And Empire propagandists like CNN absolutely HATE this.

'Whatabout' Obama?

The genocidal assault on Yemen began under Obama.

The destruction of Libya based on complete lies, and leading to the spread of extremism and the rise of ISIS, and to the migrant crisis, happened under Obama.

The CIA regime-change operation in Syria, involving the providing of billions of dollars of support to the likes of al Qaeda, and which has killed over 500,000 people and displaced millions, began under Obama.

The Neoconservaive wars continued and expanded under Obama with mass drone bombings (26,172 dropped in 2016 alone) and military operations in multiple Middle Eastern/African countries, including those mentioned above plus - Somalia, Pakistan, Sudan, and of course Afghanistan and Iraq.

Travel restrictions from these Muslim-majority countries began under Obama.

The election of a right-wing regime in Honduras, which has overseen the killing of hundreds of human rights campaigners, including LGBT and environmental activists, was enabled by Obama, who recognized and legitimised the 2009 coup regime when most rightly did not.

Mass deportations (including family separations) began under Obama. The deportees included many victims of his and his predecessor’s actions in Latin America, including Hondurans, who continue to flee to the US in desperation. The cruelty of this is shocking.

The elected government in Ukraine was overthrown with help from Obama in 2014, who then supported the coup government, which includes known neo-Nazis.

The attack on civil liberties, justified by the perpetual, and fake, ‘war on terror’, continued under Obama. He mass surveilled citizens, made it lawful to assassinate people without judicial review, had the FBI spy on journalists, and prosecuted more than double the number of whistleblowers than all prior presidents combined...

Journalism was attacked under Obama - Assange.

Tyrants around the world were embraced and given military aid under Obama. For example, Netenyahu was armed, and Palestinians ignored, even after the IDF had just slaughtered 2000 Palestinians in 50 days, including 550 children.

Protestors were tear gassed and jailed under Obama.

The bankers were protected by Obama.

The needs of corporations were prioritised by Obama, over the needs of ordinary people, and the environment.

Etc.

If people are just ‘waking up’ and will continue to protest when a 'politically correct', but equally militaristic and anti-freedom Democrat replaces Trump in 2020, then great. But given the silence (or worse - adulation) during Obama’s term, I think this unlikely.

We’re being massively manipulated. Most of the powerful actors behind the anti-Trump movement could not give a damn about Trump doing all of the above. They call Trump a fascist to distract from their own slide towards it; they emphasise his obvious delinquency to distract us from the fact that they actually support most of his agenda. They love that he is a useful distraction, though at the same time hate that he’s taken off the 'politically correct' mask and is an unpredictable embarrassment to the US Empire.
