The fraudian is pushing more anti-semitism bullshit today I see: https://www.dumptheguardian.com/news/2019/feb/07/antisemitic-incidents-uk-record-high-third-year-in-row-community-security-trust This latest "study" (cough) is from the not at all biased, no sir, Community Security Trust whose entire raison d'être is to "find" anti-semitism so that they have something to fight. The CST said the spread of incidents throughout the year, with more than 100 a month, indicated a general atmosphere of intolerance and prejudice. However, there were also spikes related to events in Gaza and the argument over antisemitism in the Labour party. They just drop that in there and walk away. I would love to see some of the actual instances they are claiming here. Also, NONE of the incidents are actually documented as far as I saw (at least not in the linked article) and ALL of them are "as classified by the CST" so in other words, "..it means exactly what we say it means, no more, no less". Last year, there was a big increase in the proportion of antisemitic incidents that used political or extremist imagery, from 30% to 45%. More than 450 incidents involved language or imagery relating to the far right or the Nazis. Shorn of spin, this means people have been calling out the zionist occupiers for demonstrating similar behavious to Nazis which of course, thanks to their handy, tailor-made, definition of anti-semitism is ....anti-semitic. I should be surprised Harriet Sherwood is regurgitating this pile of crap. She's usually around when Israeli war crimes or murder needs spinning.
