anti-semitism

British parliamentarian Denis MacShane, a Labour party MP with a history of Israel advocacy, has linked the recent killings in Toulouse to pro-Palestinian boycott motion motions in UK trade unions.

For her use of the term “Judaization,” UN Special Rapporteur on the right to adequate housing Raquel Rolink earned the drummed-up outrage of right-wing pressure group NGO Monitor, who screamed ‘antisemitism’ and demanded her resignation.

The Israel Palestine Mission Network (IPMN) of the Presbyterian Church (USA) has hit back strongly at a smear campaign from a major pro-Israel group aimed at portraying it as “anti-Semitic.”

In responding to allegations from the Jewish Council for Public Affairs (JCPA), IPMN stated:

NGO Monitor unapologetically smeared leading Palestinian human rights defender using an incorrect translation.

Today I was surprised to find myself being used in the campaign to threaten Zoabi, with Israeli newspaper Yediot Ahronot running a pathetic smear piece.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was quick to deny comments attributed to him that The New York Times and Haaretz are Israel’s greatest enemies.

Paul Flynn’s comments last month were misguided, but the main perpetrators of anti-Semitic ideas about “Jewish loyalty” are the Zionist movement and Israel. BICOM’s chief executive took part in a panel at a Zionist conference in November whose title reflected exactly the same idea.
