- From the accounts
of those in the Oxford University Labour Club (OULC) and elsewhere, it
is clear that anti-Semitism surfaced in the Labour party at exactly the
moment the party started to be led by a man who, throughout his
political life, had demonstrated extreme comfort with anti-Semites.
- "The decision
of the club [OULC] to endorse a movement with a history of targetting
and harassing Jewish students and inviting antisemitic speakers to
campuses, despite the concerns of Jewish students, illustrates how
uneven and insincere much of the active membership is when it comes to
liberation..." — Alex Chalmers, who resigned from the Oxford
University Labour Club.
UK Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn (left) has shown
support for the Hezbollah-trained extremist Dyab Abou Jahjah (right).
The British Labour party is currently led by a man, Jeremy Corbyn, who
has described Hamas and Hezbollah as "friends" and has spent his
years in the political wilderness with Holocaust deniers, anti-Semites,
terrorist-sympathisers and all manner of other undesirables. Now that he is
the Leader of Her Majesty's Opposition, he has tried to present himself as a
more moderate force by stressing that he has spent his life fighting racism
and anti-Semitism. In fact, he appears to have spent his life being
remarkably content with exponents of both.
His Shadow Chancellor spent the same period in similar company, but with
an even more fervent devotion to the terrorists of the Irish Republican Army.

- The leaders of both
France and Italy set aside their values to appease the president of
Iran.
- In France,
protesters demanded that President François Hollande challenge the Iranian
president about his country's human rights abuses. France's leadership,
however, raised no questions of that sort. Instead, Mr. Rouhani was
welcomed as a superstar.
- According to a
659-page report by Human Rights Watch, Iran's human rights violations
under Mr. Rouhani's governance have been increasing. Social media users,
artists and journalists face harsh sentences on dubious security
charges.
- In November, the
Iranian Supreme Court upheld a criminal court ruling sentencing Soheil
Arabi to death for Facebook posts "insulting the Prophet" and
"corruption on earth."
Since Hassan Rouhani (right) became the president of Iran,
the surge in executions has given Iran the world's highest death penalty rate
per capita.
Right after signing the Iran nuclear deal with itself -- Iran still has
not signed it, and even if it did, the deal would not be legally binding --
members of the P5+1 (the five permanent members of the UN Security Council
plus Germany) have been showing their eagerness to establish improved
relations with their imaginary partner.
Last month, after the lifting of international sanctions, Iran's
president, Hassan Rouhani, went on a five-day trip to Italy and France.
Officials from the host countries were so enthusiastic to welcome the
Iranian president, it was as if they were unaware of Iran's multiple
violations of The Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) --
which Iran did sign in 1968. They also seemed unaware of Iran's
expansion into Syria, Lebanon and Yemen, as well as Iran's continuing role in
sponsoring global terrorism.
