How The Labour Party Forum works. Man posts article from Guardian about Israeli settler killing Palestinian child & going free. Naturally, people express horror. But turns out the article is from 2001. The killing was in 1996 but it's BREAKING NEWS on TLPF.
Now brace brace because I'm going to show you some reactions on the same Labour Party Forum, TLPF, to the controversial mural and Luciana Berger's questions.
Second image from a thread on TLPF about the mural, Corbyn and Luciana Berger. Unroll @threadreaderapp
They know Corbyn has said that he now sees a problem with the mural, but some on TLPF are sticking to their narrative.
As I said, I wouldn't be surprised if the image of that mural turns up on merchandise at the next Labour Conference.

1) I haven't got time to make the usual collage so I'm going to post a thread of raw shots & hope it makes sense. It's all from the Facebook Forum called Truthers Against Zionist Lobbies. Are you ready?
2) And happy new year to you too, Rita. You know not what you do.
3) Truthers like the new improved mural, featuring Corbyn Pantocrator.

It's an eclectic group. Rima's article (I haven't looked yet) may be sane, compared to Karlbarkhuysen's post. Jane attributes opposition to Gilad Atzmon to Herut, so she's mistaken, to use a euphemism.
Mural redux and Al Jazeera's the Lobby Redux. This afternoon on 'Truthers against Zionists Lobbies.'
One of those paradoxes when they want to send American/European/Mizrachi Jews 'back to Israel'.

I've got a feeling they don't know we can see them.
If you're wondering what's in the article posted below the Mear One mural with Corbyn presiding like an icon above the bankers, here's an excerpt from it.
Here's another excerpt.

THREAD: I think we need to talk about the lefts stance on Party rebirth, & the holier than thou attitude that #Labour has on #libdems & tuition Fees. Given the rise of the far right & how much we actually agree on we really should be working together, so lets try to clear this up
For many of us @LibDems, we left @UKLabour when they voted & took us into Iraq.
Now the Labour left make the argument that Labour is not the same party that it was with Blair, & because Corbyn voted against Iraq; all must be forgiven. The party should be allowed to start afresh.
Fair enough. But if this was the case, why was Tim Farron nailed to the tuition fees cross by Labour campaigners at the last election? He voted AGAINST Fees in the same way Corbyn voted against Iraq.

The One State Reality - #Israeli control of #Palestinian daily life. Palestinians in West Bank must by water from Israel's national water company Mekorot, which appropriates 80% of West Bank water supply. #Apartheid @visualizingpal
Access: #Israel maintains over 98 fixed checkpoints & 100's of random "flying" checkpoints in the West Bank, choking #Palestinian freedom of movement. #Apartheid @visualizingpal
Currency: Today there is no #Palestinian currency; everybody uses the #Israeli shekel. Israel is capable of blocking any future attempts to create a Palestinian currency. #Apartheid @visualizingpal

3) Cllr Aziz urged Jews to “stop drinking Gaza’s blood,”. He has also compared the actions of Israelis towards the Palestinians to the actions of Nazis towards Jews & said Jews in the Middle East could move to the U.S. He is still an @UKLabour Councillor jewishnews.timesofisrael.com/ilyas-aziz-rea…

1) Today we start with a long thread, detailing the Labour Councillors and Officers who have made antisemitic racist claims. Note that these are NOT rank and file members, but, people in authority.

Okay, since we're debating anti-semitism again, let's have a quick run-through of what #Labour might have done, and what they have done.
Have they announced a specific speech by the Leader, or Deputy Leader, admitting mistakes in the past, and laying out a *specific* policy agenda to tackle the problem? No.
Have they admitted that, while of course one finds AS in lots of places, there is a *particular variant* of the curse on the Left, which is insidiously worming its way into the party's DNA? No.

(Thread) To all @UKLabour candidates in the upcoming May local elections:

Unfortunately I will not be able to vote for you as a representative of the Labour Party; this is despite having been a #Labour voter myself in the past. Please allow me to explain briefly my reasons why.
After the sacking of Owen Smith, I cannot vote for @UKLabour in any shape or form at the moment due to Jeremy Corybn's approach towards #Brexit which I view as highly undemocratic and contradictory to what the Labour party is meant to stand for ("for the many, not the few"?).
The attitude towards #Brexit by @jeremycorbyn and other hardcore Brexiteers like him really is now bordering on the fascist, something I find deeply disturbing. It seems that dissenters are being crushed.
