The UK’s Labour Party is infamous for being antisemitic, and even worse, for enabling the Palestinian jihad against the Jewish State.
Now the party is employing heightened measures to demonize and delegitimize Israel. The Labour Party quoted “human rights” groups in its motion — groups that fail to stand up for the multitudes of victims of jihad and Sharia oppression. They serve as little more than “progressive” useful idiots who are frequently summoned, as “leading voices in human rights,” to beat down anyone who disagrees with them.
Note how these “human rights” groups never condemn the Pay For Slay program or the jihadist ambition to obliterate Israel “from the River to the Sea.”
It says it all that a former leader of the Labor Party, Jeremy Corbyn (who identifies as Socialist), was saluted by Hamas — which articulated its “great respect and appreciation” for Corbyn and thanked him for supporting Palestinians.
The new Labor Party motion to label Israel an “apartheid” state and impose sanctions drew the attention of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas. He “welcomed the motion, saying that it sends a strong message to Israel.”
“UK Labour party passes motion that defines Israel as ‘apartheid state,’” by Ariella Matsden, Jerusalem Post, September 29, 2021:
The UK Labour Party passed a motion in their annual Brighton conference to define Israel as an apartheid state and impose sanctions against Israel as a result, the Independent reported on Tuesday.
The motion further demanded actions against “the building of settlements, reverse any annexation and ends the occupation of the West Bank and the Blockade of Gaza.”
Human rights groups were quoted in the motion as “concluding unequivocally that Israel is practicing the crime of apartheid as defined by the UN.”
Not all the party members supported the motion. The shadow foreign secretary, Lisa Nandy, distanced herself from the motion, telling the Independent that Labour must follow a “fair and balanced approach”, while Labour leader Kier Starmer reportedly clashed with the members who supported the motion.
Nandy is the former chair of Labour Friends of Palestine and the Middle East, and in February 2020 she was backed by the Jewish Labour Movement to become the new party leader.
“There can only be a lasting peace through a safe and secure Israel existing alongside a sovereign and viable Palestinian state,” Nandy told the Independent. “Therefore we cannot support this motion. It does not address the issues in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in a comprehensive or balanced way.”
According to the Middle East Monitor, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas welcomed the motion, saying that it sends a strong message to Israel.
The motion came after a Jewish former member of the party, Dame Louise Ellman, rejoined the party.
Ellman had previously left the party in protest while it was led by Jeremy Corbyn and facing an antisemitism scandal….

To stigmatize Israel as an ‘apartheid state’ is nothing less than pure calumny. Calumniate means to spread false stories about somebody in order to destroy his reputation. That is what the Labour Party is doing here. Israel has many notable, worthy Arabs in government, the judiciary, law enforcement and the military and in all other professions. That hardly qualifies as apartheid. Rather that is proof of Israel’s general, overall, societal inclusiveness.
Have the Labourites actually looked at some real ‘apartheid states’ like Jordan, Afghastlistan, Soddy Barbaria and theocratic-fascistic Iran? They truly segregate systemically.

It simply displays in the open the ignorance and bigotry which is still at the heart of the party, One more reason why they should not be elected to government. Credit is due to those in leadership who opposed the motion
Kenneth J Johnson says
How many Muslems in the Labor Party??? Soon there will be enough Muslem citizens of the UK to take over the country. Then what is in store for the west ??? And the United States??

Welcome to the post Corbin Labour Party – the same as the Labour Party under Corbin

“The motion further demanded actions against “the building of settlements”
Meanwhile the building of muslim settlements in the UK goes on. Actually, settlements were not built, the establishment unilaterally allowed muslims to occupy existing settlements, because, that’s different. How many people were knifed this month in the non apartheid UK?
What Israel does is really none of their damned business. Stay in your own lane labour party. You have enough problems to deal with on your home front.

This is the plan of the Muslim Brotherhood unfolding with the Left serving as useful idiots making it all happen. As a Christian I feel somewhat conflicted because at one hand you feel like fighting back (and no, I’m not talking about picking up a gun and start shooting or something like that), on the other hand we know these thing are supposed to happen and that there’s no stopping it really. These are indeed strange and interesting times.

UK: Labour party passes motion to define Israel as ‘apartheid state,’ impose sanctions
………………
Despicable falsehoods.
The Labour Party is antisemitic–and enables Jihad terror.
john smith says
It is slightly better under Kier Starmer’s leadership but only slightly. It’s antisemitic roots run deep and it will take more than a change in leaders to remove them.
gravenimage says
Thanks, John. Yes–it has to be somewhat better than it was under the appalling Jeremy Corbyn.
Derek says
It’s so very distressing to have survival instinct be called out in this manner. The very survival of Jews is at stake here at the hands of a murderous cult.

Who is that smart well spoken woman in the second video? She rocks. If had no other choice I would rather follow her in to the depths of where ever (the truth zone i guess we could call it) rather than trusting the generals/politicians/etc we have in the USA today.
James Lincoln says
Ben,
Thanks for the links.
Sharifa Alkhateeb explains, in the first video, the strategy to convert people in the US to islam.
VICTOR COWEN says
Thank goodness people like this make ‘Labour’ unelectable.
Infidel says
True, but the Tories are way below mediocre, and so is the LDP. Best solution to this would be a merger of Reform+Reclaim+UKIP+Britain First+For Britain, and kick out that relic Farage, who doesn’t have a problem w/ muslim immigration as opposed to normal legal immigration in general
medaber_emet says
the UK will become muslim repoblique of England
and the chrisitans there will be dihimis
Laura says
Most labour voters do so because their fathers did. They have never questioned the policies of this rabidly anti-Semitic, pro muslim excuse for a political party. Ask them why they support labour and they struggle to give a cogent answer. Muddle headed, shit for brains idiots. who claim to be ‘Friends of Palestine’ and haters of Israel. The UK desperately needs an alternative to the 2 main parties, neither of whom could organise and manage a jumble sale.
jim says
The logic of the left seems to be that the more extreme the measures taken by revolutionaries, the more extreme the injustice they are fighting against. But this is really not the case. The Palestinians are not being treated very unjustly, in fact they are doing the most injustice. So the reverse logic of the left is characteristic of them and shows their wrongful attitudes. The same with the way they react to riots in the US. The leftist rioters must be suffering extreme abuse and injustice, otherwise they would not react with such violence. The Democrats treat the Republicans and conservatives with contempt and use illegal means to win the WH and impose their agenda. This is understood as showing how severely they are oppressed and how great the injustice they are fighting against. If the Labour ideologues looked at what the Israelis do or what Hamas and the PA does, they would not find the situation justifies their attack on Israel, but being leftists they do not look at what is happening, they simply categorize events in their ideological schemes.
JCA Reid says
How many Jews sit in Parliaments of Muslim Majority countries? How many Jews attend Muslim Universities? How are Jews treated in these countries? How many Muslim Majority Countries are actually Democratic? British Labour are a complete disgrace. I just don’t see how they can endorse such a statement.
