From the beginning Corbyn should have counter-attacked on precisely these lines. Are these peple loyal to the UK or Irael? That itself might have opened him up to allegations of anti-semitism, but at least he'd have followed a coherent and aggressive strategy, a counter-story. British 'nationalism' as opposed to 'nationalism' for Israel. He could have allied himself with Muslim groups in Britain and even gone to Gaza himself to the border and talked about the Israeli snipers killing children and asked the rhetorical question, what do the Jewish leaders in Britain have to say about these atrocities. Isn't the rise in anti-semitism linked to Israel's actions, not the mere existance of Jews? He could have demanded that the BBC show the Aljazeera film about the Israeli lobby and their interference in UK and US politics. He could ask why the BBC is afraid to show it? He could take on the ####ing Guardian and Jonathan Freedland, take the battle to their territory for a change, start asking them to justify their support for Israel make them ####ing apologise. He could could sack Watson and say why, because it's Waston that's bringing the Labour Party into disrepute, for starters. He should have sacked those eight MPs before they had a chance to resign. He could have taken the ####ing initiative for a change, instead of meekly reacting. The guy and people around him are weak, unitelligent and hopeless.
