Labours ongoing anti semitism row

Because they aren't dealing with the issues, it is totally self inflicted.

Nobody answered in about just over an hours time. Seriously?

The problem is; why invent a new definition. Just why? Just why?

What are the differences? Maybe that might give clues?
i.e. if the differences in the definition is as being reported related to the criticisms of Israel, given the news on segregation in the region, one might think that if you were to want to criticise this, you wouldn't want to be called out as an anti-semite.
But as I asked, maybe there is more to the differences in the definition.

That wasn't what I asked.. why after 3 year of leadership is it now in the media?
The Tory party is weak, there are talks of a snap election again, so is this a smear campaign? I'm not saying that what has been posted is false, but there has been so much tampering in elections, fake news etc, that I tend to want to see it in mainstream news, rather than papers that have a bias, and want to understand how things come to the media's attention at specific times.
It's one thing news hitting the papers as it happens, but hitting the papers now? Why is it in the media now?

“Jeremy Corbyn compared Israel’s actions in Gaza to those of Nazi Germany at Stalingrad and Leningrad, it can be revealed.

His speech in 2010 took place six months after he hosted an event on Holocaust Memorial Day at the House of Commons that likened Israeli government policy to that of the Nazis.”

No, it is self inflicted and has been dragging on for to long. Normally I like gifts that keep giving, but this is an embarassment. Deflecting what it is could come across like having sympathy, do you have sympathy for labours anti semitism?

I think the starting point is to figure out if the Labour party is being anti-semitic and this appears to be all around the wording in labour's policies.
So what are the differences and are they anti-semitic?
You won't answer I know this direct question, so maybe time to leave it?

I thought this made sense:

robel

How can comparing Israel/Israelis/the government to nazis anything other than Anti Semitic?

If the comparison is true?
