So there is anti-Semitism in the Labour Party then? on 23:19 - Aug 4 by oh_tommy_tommy
Serious now
I don’t ask what religion people are when I meet them .
But you do seem to spend an inordinate time fretting about them, Tom. I don’t understand the left’s obsession with Israel, and it is an obsession. What’s it all about?
An idea isn't responsible for those who believe in it.

The murder of an indigenous people and the confiscation of their land?

I thought the people of David were the indigenous people. They were invaded by Assyrians, Babalonians, the pharoes, the Romans, The muslim hordes, the Ottermans, the British, and finally the Syrians, Egyptians, Jordians all off are tried to exterminate them.

I’m joining in a thread on the Internet Loh
Topical discussions which interest me
The same as things interest you
The Middle East troubles and our foreign policy interest me

Having written more press releases than I can remember, I can safely say that this is just lazy journalism.
Many journos will just quickly paraphrase a press release if they think it’s from a reputable source. I once counted six versions of mine with barely a fag paper between them,
Sorry to piss on your conspiracy parade but the idea of collusion for propaganda is risible. Put another layer of tinfoil on.
So it's more copy and paste laziness than conspiracy collusion? That's a shame, I thought my extrapolation was more interesting at least.
Have you read 'Flat Earth News' ny Nick Davies by any chance Mr H? What's central to the premise he puts forward is that the origin of news in the UK comes predominantly from the Press Association (in the US it's Associated Press and Reuters) and that in modern newsrooms journalists (given the profit margins that newspaper owners enjoy) have very little scope to investigate stories properly and churn them out not far from verbatim - 'churnalism' he coins it. The chapter on the power of the Israeli lobby is interesting also.
Not being facetious here, genuinely interested.
If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face--forever.

The trouble is Corbyn is relying on the votes from the 6,000,000 strong Muslim community as opposed to the 250,000 strong Jewish community. He can't support one group without offending the other group. Clearly in his bid for power he will support the larger group.

I know people who are half Muslim/half Jewish.
Their right hand will vote for Corbyn and their left ones will vote for the "Jew lovers" whoever they are.

There are people who say Judaism is race and / or religion.
So if its a race, Shirley its possible to be of mixed race eg half Jewish / half something else.
Passes down female bloodline; plenty who claim to be "half Jewish" refer to having a father only who was Jewish - ie Jackie Walker's alleged Jewish father being used as a defence that she couldn't possibly be anti-semitic.
So my kids are Jewish as their mother is Jewish. As both are male, any kids they have will only be Jewish if by Jewish mums.
Now, do people convert to Judaism. Well yes, but it's not exactly discouraged but made pretty bloody difficult and again, passes down the female bloodline.
