How easy can it be for the JVL supporters to work out what is JVL vis-à-vis JLM? They are confused enough!
I'm not sure of the date of this screen shot, but you see what I mean? If this is what JVL training produces, there's something rotten in the state of Denmark.
This is from 9 May. Sheikh Jarrah was the issue. Well I feel that JVL's strictures against antisemitism are not getting through to their supporters.
Frankly, I don't think JVL have a keen eye for antisemitism or, if they do see it, they cut it some slack.
They did nothing to contain the hyperbole of their fans.
JVL have never corrected their supporters on the innumerable occasions when they assert that Jews run British political parties by means of money. Examples are legion. I'm compiling a dossier.
I'll end here, but I just uploaded this page & the remark about Starmer's wife is a gross example of not knowing the difference between UK Jews and Israelis. If JVL want to do training, I think they could have had a word about that.

1/ An MP posted that it wouldn't be racist for a doctor to refuse to treat a Zionist. He reasons that this would be politics rather than race. If a doctor refused to treat a member of the Reform Party or a Conservative voter, a tax lawyer, the manager of a branch of McDonald's...
2/...a journalist from The Telegraph, a rabbi, a priest, an imam, a trans-person, a transphobic person - would that be reasonable? Would there be forms to fill in, before surgery?
3/ Btw, Yahya Sinwar was treated successfully for cancer in an Israeli hospital. Maybe they shouldn't have?

Someone reacts to a tweet about Jewish schoolkids being abused on a London bus. Who can explain to her that we're not 'conflating' anything?
Try it like this. Jews in the UK get attacked by people screaming about Israel. We use the antisemitism word. They tell us it isn't antisemitism as the antagonists cited Israel as their reason for attacking Jewish kids in Edgware.
When I tweet about these events, as I do most days, there's often someone who says it wouldn't happen - if only I would stop 'killing children'. I know that gets said also to any other Jewish person who tweets on these matters. If I stop killing & conflating, will they lay off?

1/ I'm doing a short thread called 'Corbynists talk about Keir Starmer's wife.' Why? Because these people who deny antisemitism have no idea how to recognize it. Image
2/ From another Corbynist forum. Image
3/ Image

1/ Asa Winstanley of Electronic Intifada has a book out, 'Weaponizing Antisemitism.' I see it's recommended not only by Jackie Walker but also Rita Allison, admin of 'Truthers against Zionist Lobbies'.
2/ I rarely look at Truthers these days, due to the queasiness of seeing their neonazism entwined with their avowed humanitarian concern for Palestinians, in other words, the far right masked up as the moderate left.
However, this is their schtick.
3/ Truthers used a cover picture of Jeremy Corbyn but were so intensely antisemitic that the authors of the Leaked Report (April 2020) considered them beyond the pale.

In one respect, they're on the right track: they are indeed extremely frightening, for several reasons. Image
Their beliefs are frightening. They believe that Mo Mowlam & Jeremy together achieved peace in N Ireland; that JC could be PM by Xmas; that Keir expelled JC because JC is against antisemitism; that Jeremy's popularity is so great, only a cunning conspiracy stopped him being PM...
...and you don't need me to tell you whom they suspect of being the conspirators.

1/ I'm often the recipient of not particularly friendly tweets from people with 'It was a scam' as their logo, alongside the pro Corbyn hashtag on their Twitter bio.
A thought follows.
2/ 2017: many people found Corbyn refreshingly unspun, honest, sensible & good-hearted.
By 2019, he had showed a curmudgeonly side & his reputation was tainted due to his past association with terrorists & antisemites.
2020: No longer leader, he displayed resentment towards...
3/..his successor and blamed his electoral failures on a campaign against him by bad faith players. It became axiomatic among his supporters to identify these as the PLP, the media, Jewish organizations & Israel. The latter, found daily among Corbynist supporters, crystallized...
