On Monday morning I heard Hilary Benn say that Mr Corbyn hadn’t a antiSemitic bone in his body. Now I read that Jenny Manson said the same and I think I have also heard it quoted by others. As a friend replied when I told her how disappointed I was with Benn, she said, ‘no, Corbyn hasn’t A anti Semitic bone in his body; he has LOTS of anti Semitic bones in his body’.Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08223253889086419817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-12600563853543166852018-03-29T11:06:42.854+01:002018-03-29T11:06:42.854+01:00The BBC are maintaining radio silence.

On the BBC News website Home page this morning, there is no mention of Jeremy Corbyn - other than way down in the article about Christine Shawcroft resignation. Guido says that Shawcroft is staying on the NEC and remains as a Director of Momentum. It sounds a bit like a BBC resignation - a publicity stunt carried out at no loss of position or earnings.Loondon Callinghttp://otboae.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-35326515917102478522018-03-28T11:38:37.367+01:002018-03-28T11:38:37.367+01:00Corbyn is a member of FIVE anti-semitic Facebook g...Corbyn is a member of FIVE anti-semitic Facebook groups!<br /><br />https://order-order.com/2018/03/28/corbyn-is-member-of-two-more-anti-semitic-facebook-groups/<br /><br />Only thanks to Guy Fawkes do I know that.

I had to smile. But I wonder if such a scene would ever have any chancing of being reflected in any way at the BBC, that trusted world class broadcaster? <br /><br />To ask the question is to answer it. Unless it formed part of some morality tale where the Kurdish barber subsequently broke down and confessed it was only due to American bombing of Kurdistan and resultant PTSD that had led him to utter such deplorable and untrue sentiments, the answer is of course no! <br /><br />The BBC doesn't reflect reality, it manufactures it as part of a gigantic industrial process.

Socialism has had a strand of anti-semitism running through it from the beginning. <br /><br />I gave this quote on the other thread but I think it bears repeating: <br /><br />"Hyndman [founder of the Social Democratic Federation, forerunner of the Labour Party], along with his closest associates, consistently identified Jews with the universal domination of money and savagely caricatured all aspects of Jewish life whether in England or abroad. When antisemitic riots broke out in Vienna in 1885, Hyndman quickly condoned them, denouncing instead the corrupting influence of Jewish finance capital throughout the world."<br /><br />The above quote is from a scholarly article:<br /><br />https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/0031322X.2017.1335029<br /><br />That's one lie. The other lie - also shared between the BBC and Corbyn - is that the new wave of anti-Jewish sentiment has nothing to do with Islam. <br /><br />Monkey Brainsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-16671761732737259032018-03-27T14:01:34.140+01:002018-03-27T14:01:34.140+01:00As at lunchtime today the BBC News website has rem...As at lunchtime today the BBC News website has removed from its Home page all references to Jeremy Corbyn, antisemitism in the Labour Party and anything associated with this story. There is not even any reference to Tony Blair's interview. What should we make of this?Loondon Callinghttp://otboae.comnoreply@blogger.com
