Hes not sorry for being a racist though, and he has not said he has chnaged. He is sorry for any hurt he caused. Big difference: to the left, the means justify the end and he can be sorry for hurting people, but it can still continue as its justified to his to achieve his aims.

So he’s not anti Semitic then and trying to stop out (any) anti-Semitism ? Or are you saying he is anti Semitic ?
Every time he has stood on a platform proclaiming the worth of Hezbollah and Hammas he was clearly pushing his pro Jewish agenda.

He has spent decades befriending anyone that he sees as an enemy of the establishment he wants to destroy.

The fker is now, somehow, improbably, a senior figure in that establishment.

His associations taint him deeply.

So does this mean that Shammi will be stepping down seeing as how her report concluded that anti Semitism within the Labour Party wasn’t a problem?
I mean surely her integrity and conscience will mean she’ll at least apologise.

Then again don’t hold your breath.

ok, so now he has admitted and apologised.
I guess from lack of any evidence it was just people hoping he was anti-semitic rather than anything else.
Nice try defending him

Fixed this for him/BBC
"Jeremy Corbyn has said he is "sincerely sorry" for the pain caused by "the MASSIVE amounts of anti-Semitism" in the Labour party."

Delusional.
I am not trying to defend him, nor delusional.

I asked what the route cause of this theory that he is anti-semetic is.
I was offered the explanations that he hasn't said enough in response the anti-semitism in the labour ranks. coincidentally a minute later, the BBC had that story so I posted it.

therefore I am asking, is there more proof, or is this now finished, or is there something else I should realise about this situation?

Shows how amazing it is that Corbyn

A) won leadership contest, survived numerous resignations, vote of no confidence, 80% of Parliamentary Labour Party wanting him out, criticism from all ex labour leaders, criticism from entire media.

And

B) cemented his position as leader and reduced conservatives lead in election.
It's certainly been surprising. biggrin

Your questions seem entirely reasonable to me. He doesn’t seem obviously anti Semitic to me either.

I would be very sure that he is vehemently against the concept of anti-Semitism. However, I’d be less sure that his support for pro-Palestinian, anti-Zionist, anti-capitalist groups or individuals has not ended up getting him dangerously close to embracing anti-Semitic views.

I suppose he just mentally substitutes Israel for Jewish, every time one of these groups says something anti Semitic.

Perhaps they just tone down the anti semitism when he comes over for hamas, I mean humus.

I’m not sure it is looking good for the conservatives
If it is though, it’s because Corbyn and McDonnell are the alternative.
I think pretty much any other labour leader would actually be ahead in the polls.
Like the end of the Major era, the time is ripe for another Blair type leader to win a landslide but labour look set on Corbyn till he dies. The conservatives are getting away with loads at the moment, because they’ve simply not got an effective opposition.
Things don't look good for the torys, they don't look bad. No-one knows how things ook, I think anyone that thinks they know is kidding themselves.

But are the torys better off because of JC? The downturn for Labour started happening at the Iraq war, eventually it hit the point where they lost power, and it was still going down with MiIlliband, it started to go up around the time JC became leader, was it JC becoming leader that did this, was it causal or connected, or was he simply riding that eventual rebound, would any other leader have done the same? JC was nominated as a 'joke', and then everything was done to try and get rid of him, for a few years, and yet despite that Labour grew in support and numbers. So would Owen SMith, or Chukka or any of the others be ahead in the polls? I'm not sure. Cameron was a Blair clone, he went, the personality free Maybot may be the best sort of leader for the torys for now, the genuine JC may be the best sort of leader for labour.

Well he sounds like a nice bloke, I wonder what sort of voice he would be?

THat seems to be the gist if it from what has actually been said and done.

A death by a thousand cuts. The same approach with ukip before the cameron/ wrong brother general election. See also the lefgies kn the JRM thread. Hoffiried about sonmene being a catholic, silent on corbhn being a racist...sorry...antisemite
I’m not a leftie. I’m a Thacher-admiring Tory, who believed in Cameron until he lazily held that stupid referendum he assumed would go the other way. I think UKIP was a stty little party, a coalition of middle class Butfon-Tuftons and working class racists. I was brought up Catholic. I cannot abide JRM. I cannot stand Corbyn. I hate anti-semitism. I hate racism, but get angry every time Corbyn, when asked if he condemns anti-semitism, deflects by saying he condemns all racism.

How do I fit into your little boxes?

Only polarised because YOU think so. I think what you posted was all wrong and that is a simple concept, do try to grap it.


No

It's almost as if they knew what Corbyn was going to say.

Ok so its Guido and likely a little biased, however this is a good summary of people he has associated with. Including laying a wreath on the grave of a PLO terroriost who took part in the Munich killings

Ok, now that is an absolutely terrible article there. I haven't seem that site before, but wow is it bad.
However there are two instances in there, one of which he has praised an artist who painter a mural that was anti-semitic, and the other inviting someone who said something anti-semetic once to tea. However, no quotes, evidence or even names, so I can't go away and check on these.

On the other hand, I work with thousands of people, some are racist. I have been on nights out with people that I have later found out are incredibly racist. That doesn't make me racist though. I would expect a politicians job will be continuous invites, daily chats to people etc. I don't expect them to know everything about everyone they talk to.

Essentially if someone is to actually be anti-semetic, I want a bit more proof than... "there is an artist I won't name, that painted something that might or might not have been anti-semetic, that corbyn may or may not have once said something that may or may not have been complementary about, for which we have no idea of the circumstance, timeline, how well known this guy is/was etc etc."
