Do You Condemn Anti-Semitism?

Of course. The Labour Party in the UK (the main opposition party) are tearing themselves apart over it at the moment. I heard on the news that the Democratic party are having similar problems.
Anti-semitism is the stupid man's socialism. The far left see the world through the prism of power struggles. They buy into the conspiracy theory that Jews are the hidden power behind capitalism. Frequently anti-Zionism is a cover for anti-semitism.
Jeremy Corbyn (Labour leader) defended this mural that went up in London in 2012. When he was lambasted for it he hypocritically pretended he hadn't seen it before he offered his support for it.

A picture is worth a thousand words! For people who are supposed to be all inclusive, it leaves me scratching my head.

I condemn bad behaviors of any nation.
One can only wonder why the State of Israel gets a "pass" on the World stage for its brutalities.
Censorship and loss of Constitutionally guaranteed Free Speech in America is very troubling.
Very few people in Congress dare to speak up.
By the way, what is the now "official" definition of "Anti-Semitism" over there?
Or even, what is a "Semite?"

Quote from Cofty:

The numbers of Jews in America who believe this "conspiracy theory" is quite large and growing. Particularly among the young who are assimilated and question the diplomacy of the State of Israel. They too are appalled by the bad behaviors and question America's seemingly "unquestionable allegiance" and massive foreign aid to Israel while America itself falls into decay.

Jeremy Corbyn counts himself as a friend of Hamas and of Hezbollah. He attended a memorial ceremony that included paying respects to the terrorists who murdered eleven Israeli athletes at the Munich olympics in 1972.

Oh yes. According to him he has zero tolerance for racism.
Of course when the far left say that they really believe it. In the socialist worldview it's only racist to discriminate with disadvantaged people and since they believe that the Jews rule the world they can hate them with impunity.
