JC: Labour peer hosts anti-Jewish speaker at the House of Lords   Topic List   < Prev Topic  |  Next Topic >

RE: [JustPeaceUK] Re: JC: Labour peer hosts anti-Jewish speaker at the House of Lords

The point about Shamir is not only that he is anti-Jewish (which he is); but
that he is positively harmful to the Palestinian sttruggle, and to any
aspiration for coexistence in the Middle East. His "solution" appears to be
an alliance between Palestinians and fascism, to bring about a conversion of
the Israeli Jews to Christianity. And no, I'm not making this up or
exaggerating; it's there explicitly in his writings.

So we should not ask people like Afif and PSC to denounce Shamir because of
his anti-Jewish rantings; we should insist that they join us in rejecting
his whole approach as an obstacle to any progressive political strategy.

I think the approach should come from a broad range of people, so Shamir cannot muddy the waters by claiming it is 'the jews' who are after him. The fact is...
