Phizzy — You are attempting to defend the indefensible.
Have you investigated the historic links between anti-semitism and British left wing politics? It's a fascinating topic.
Are you aware of Corbyn's links to the far left? Do you know how intellectually challenged he is and the names to the Marxist academic ideologues he depends on?
If Corbyn isn't an anti-semite he stands alone among his peers.
The anti-semitism smears against the Labour Party seem motivated more by a desire to keep it out of Government, than any search for truth - Phizzy
Then why are most of the accusations of anti-semitism coming from Labour party members including senior members of Parliamentary Labour Party?
Cofty Are you seriously telling me that you deny this? - Diog
It's getting really tedious the way posters project views onto others that they have never expressed.
The far left have a serious issue with anti-semitism — contempt for Jews. We are NOT talking about legitimate criticism of Israel's foreign policy.
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.
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.
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.
some witnesses realize that they got into a religion and it turned out to be disastrous.
many decide they have to somehow get out.
some do it right away and others take longer.. where are you in your journey?
I understand why some may stay in for family reasons, that is their own decision. I cannot understand elders who continue to serve but don't believe the organisation is the 'truth'. There are a multitude of ways you could step down with honour.
Personally I was unable to pretend to believe anything. As soon as I worked out it was a lie I had to say so take the consequences.
as the clock ticks down, i just wish our politicians would get on with it.
i think teresa may has had a bitch of a job in the last couple of years and wish her well.
as a once labour supporter i could not under any circumstance support them again under jeremy corbyn and diane abbot.. i voted out, and do still have hope that the uk will prosper free of europe.
leaving neverland the micheal jackson documentary was just released and i must say watching it myself left me pretty disgusted but not necessarily surprised.. being that there is two accounts given by two separate boys, men now, leaves the impression that their stories are truthful and factual.. what one can take from this story is that mj was a megalomaniac that thought he had the power, money and personal stature to get away with just about anything he wanted, this included pedophilia with boys.
i wonder if the over oppression restrictive nature of being brought up a child in the jws religion had an effect to his loose out of control behavior of a super rich celebrity ?.
his celebrity status and wealth really came to him when he was a pubescent young boy/teen, money in such a huge amount made anything he wanted or could afford possible.. personally i think he was inherently gay and had pursued arranged marriages to protect his perceived public image, a pretentious act which was mostly devised as a money and business endeavor .
Thank you for that OC. Looks like both positions are a myth and gay men are no more or less likely to be attracted to children than heterosexual men.
so i was talking with my husband about all the things the organization is doing ie.
hiding pedophiles, lying about what 1914 was etc.
so his response was that the nation of israel had times when they weren’t doing the right thing, but it was still gods chosen organization.. another topic we were talking about was disfellowshipping.

It is the way that followers of every totalitarian regime rationalise the things they know are wrong. Either the evidence becomes too much — and everybody has their own threshold — or something happens personally that makes them wake up. Often is is hurt rather than reason that makes the difference.
