More of Keir Starmer's legendary bad judgement, eulogising a known Anti-Semite and Misogynist.

And why should the UK care about some Yank business Keir? Are we sucking up to some peado coming over next week or something?

"The stubborn myth that #Jews are too safe to be targets is colliding with a painful new reality.

For the first time, a majority of #American Jews—including many of the young people I met—are changing their lives out of fear, a fear now validated by the #FBI, which recently recorded the highest number of anti-#Jewish #hatecrimes in American history. Jews make up just 2% of the population but are the victims of nearly 70% of all religion-based hate crimes. The question is no longer whether a crisis exists, but what we will do in response.

I know that for some, any discussion of #antisemitism is seen as an attempt to silence legitimate criticism of the #Israeli government or its policies. But that valid concern cannot become a shield used to deflect from real and rising threats."

We can, should, and must talk about what's happening in Israel and the Middle East. At the same time, we cannot blame Israel for antisemitism.

Antisemitism's rise in the West was already at record levels far before 10/7, and as we know, antisemitism pre-dates Israel's formation by thousands of years.

Beyond that it would be wrong to place responsibility for racism on the actions of any foreign government.

By way of example, AAPI hate does not fall on the shoulders of Xi Jinping, and even the claim that it would is itself a racist act.

We can vehemency despise Netanyahu and the right wing coalition in Israel for their actions- which does include their harming of the reputation of Jews, but if we blame Israel for the antisemitism, then we absolve the antisemites of their hateful conflation of Israeli's minority government with that of all Jews, or heck, even all Israelis.

If we fall into that mindset, then we've accepted the antisemitic narrative as true.
