Israel/Zionism See other Israel/Zionism Articles Title: Anti Semitism, The Labour Party and Regime Change Readers of the Palestine Chronicle may have read about the hullabaloo in London over the dismissal of Jermyn Corbyn from the Labour Party. On the October 29th, the leader of the main opposition party in the UK was dismissed from the Party which he had been a member all his adult life. The apparent issue was his unwillingness to control anti Semitism when he had been its leader. Outsiders might think that details were all important. Despite the political noise what we are witnessing Corbyns dismissal is a political coup against socialism and the Palestinian cause. The Labour Party the main opposition Party in the UK for over 100 years has been turned upside down. Jermyn Corby had been and remains a supporter of the Palestinian cause all his life. A pro Palestinian political leader of an important political party was always anathema to both established rulers in Britain and to the wider NATO/US alliance. The issue the Western establishment faced was how to undermine Corbyn while appearing to take a back seat. The leaders of the Jewish community in Britain were willing allies; a changed definition of anti Semitism provided the fuel to challenge the pro Palestinian Corbyn and his many allies. The wider picture to this domestic dispute is vital in understanding what is in essence a political coup without firing a shot! The existence of Israel remains a running sore in the worlds geopolitics, in Middle Eastern territories and even among a mixture of anxious Zionists within Israel, in the USA and UK. By any standards the land that is Israel remains perhaps the last remaining Colonised territory in the world today. Of course many dispute this fact. But any one with remotest understanding of the history of the area since the time of the Balfour Declaration in 1917 understands that the land that is now Israel was taken by force of arms. Simply put the land was colonised. Ever since the Palestinians have had a Just cause. The Just cause could always have been resolved, and still can be as many Jews and Palestinian and others have understood. Meron Benvenisti, being only the latest to have given voice to a just resolution. Unfortunately the anxious Jewish fraternity in Israel, UK and USA does not talk to the Palestinian. Corbyns Labour Party was seen by all Zionists as a deep threat. Corbyn was a popular socialist leaning leader at the head of a major political party in a major Western State. He could not be allowed legitimacy, if the colonised land of Israel was to be maintained. The US lead NATO alliance of the Western world needed Israel as a bulwark for control of the Middle East in turmoil. The British leaders of the Jewish people of Britain to their shame exploited rearranged ideas of anti Semitism to bring down a leader who just might have lead a civilising mission in the entire Middle East. In a word they exploited one of great crimes of the 20th century, the holocaust, to rid Britain of a decent man and the political party behind him. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
