Fraudian goes full anti-semitism/CorbynArchived Message

They seem to have gone into a full court press in the last few days, perhaps to take direct attention off the Williamson affair seeing as a lot of people are pointing out the smears and falsity of that.
Richard Zimler, author of the celebrated 1996 novel The Last Kabbalist of Lisbon
Yeh, me neither.
said two cultural event coordinators had terminated negotiations on publicising his new novel because they feared a backlash from anti-Israel campaigners. Zimler has no connections with or family in Israel.
The author’s personal publicist, who asked not to be named, confirmed that two organisations had pulled out of initially enthusiastic discussions about events with Zimler, whose latest book The Gospel According to Lazarus was published in April. They feared his Jewishness would alienate Palestinian sympathisers among their clientele and could result in protests, the publicist said.
So the people that pulled out didn't say it was because of fear of alienating Palestinian sympathisers (on a side note, interesting how they use that term to make it sound like "terrorist sympathisers" or "hollocaust deniers") but HIS PUBLICIST that claimed that was the reason.
Friends in the UK had suggested that the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaign and the Labour party’s reluctance to take a firm stand against antisemitism had contributed to an “atmosphere of fear”.
Zimler says: “If cultural organisations are afraid of hosting events for Jewish writers, then Britain has taken a big step backwards.”
"Friends" eh? Friends of a certain state perhaps?
Elsewhere the man-hating, Marina Hyde wannabe Barbara Ellen is noting that Jeremy Corbyn didnt't go to Glastonbury with the strapline:
Corbyn shuns Glastonbury and no one cares. Remainers have moved on
SHUNS?? As if attendance is required like it's a parliamentary debate on a war or something. Just because Fatberg Slim ponces off there every year doesn't mean the entire Labour Party has to.
