Is the Left anti-Semitic? Sadly, it is heading that way
There has been a lot of talk over the past two weeks about whether it is anti-Semitic to oppose Israel’s attack on Gaza. Radical Leftists and liberal commentators have insisted (perhaps a bit too much?) that there is nothing remotely anti-Semitic about their anger with Israel or their fury on behalf of battered, bruised and bombed Palestinians. And of course they are right that it is entirely possible to oppose Israel’s militarism without harbouring so much as a smidgen of dislike for the Jewish people. Some will oppose the war in Gaza simply because they are against wars in general, especially ones that impact on civilians.
However, it seems pretty clear to me that much of the left in Europe and America is becoming more anti-Semitic, or at least risks falling into the trap of anti-Semitism, sometimes quite thoughtlessly. In the language it uses, in the ideas it promotes, in the way in which it talks about the modern world, including Israel, much of the Left has adopted a style of politics that has anti-Semitic undertones, and sometimes overtones. The key problem has been the Left’s embrace of conspiratorial thinking, its growing conviction that the world is governed by what it views as uncaring “cabals”, “networks”, self-serving lobbyists and gangs of bankers, all of which has tempted it to sometimes turn its attentions towards those people who historically were so often the object and the target of conspiratorial thinking – the Jews.
Yes, one can hate Israel’s attack on Gaza without hating the Jews. But there’s no denying that the hatred being expressed for Israel’s attack on Gaza is different to the opposition to all other acts of militarism in recent times. Just compare the huge 2003 Hyde Park demo against the Iraq War with the recent London demos against Israel’s attack on Gaza. The former had an air of resignation; it expressed a mild, middle-class sense of disappointment with Tony Blair, through safe, soft slogans like “Not In My Name”. The latter, by contrast, have been fiery and furious, with screeching about murder and mayhem and demands that the Israeli ambassador to the UK be booted out. Some attendees have held up placards claiming that Zionists control the British media while others have accused both London and Washington of “grovelling” before an apparently awesomely powerful Israeli Lobby.
This is a recurring theme in anti-Israel sentiment today: the idea that a powerful, sinister lobby of Israel lovers has warped our otherwise respectable leaders here in the West, basically winning control of Western foreign policy. You see it in cartoons depicting Israeli leaders as the puppet masters of politicians like William Hague and Tony Blair. You can hear it in Alexi Sayle’s much-tweeted claim that the “Western powers” kowtow to Israel because they are “frightened of it… frightened of the power that it wields”. You can see it in the arguments of John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt in their popular book The Israel Lobby and US Foreign Policy, which holds an apparently super-powerful pro-Israel lobby in the heart of Washington responsible for the Iraq War and all other kinds of disasters. The claim is often made that Israel has corrupted Western officials, commanding them to carry out its dirty work.
Sound familiar? Yes, this has terrible echoes of the old racist idea that Jewish groups controlled Western politics and frequently propelled the world into chaos – an idea that was especially popular in the early to mid-20th-century Europe. Very often, anti-Israel protesters treat Israel not just as a nation at war – like Britain, America or France, which also frequently launch wars that kill huge numbers of civilians – but also as the warper of policy and morality in the West, as a source of poison in global affairs, as the architect of instability across the globe. Indeed, a few years ago a poll of Europeans found that a majority of them view Israel as “the biggest threat to world peace”. So Israel is undoubtedly singled out by Leftists and others, and even more significantly it is singled out in a way that the Jews used to be singled out – that is, as a sinister, self-serving corrupter of nations and causer of chaos.
Much of today’s anti-Israel protesting has a conspiracy-theory feel to it, with its talk about powerful lobby groups designing wars behind closed doors in order to isolate Israel’s enemies and boost Israel’s fortunes. And this is in keeping with Left-wing politics generally, today. The Left has increasingly embraced a conspiracy-theory view of the world. It is now very common to hear Leftists talk about the “cabals of neocons” who control world affairs, or the “cult of bankers” who wreak havoc on our economies, or the Murdoch Empire that “orchestrates public life from the shadows” (to quote Labour MP Tom Watson). All seriously analytical and nuanced readings of international trends and political dynamics have been elbowed aside by contemporary Leftists, who prefer instead to argue that dark, hidden, mysterious forces are ruining politics, plotting wars, and enriching themselves at the expense of the poor. And, as history shows us, there is a thin line between railing against wicked cabals and cults and wondering out loud whether the Jews are secretly running world affairs, or at least wielding a disproportionate influence.
Indeed, some of the most influential trends in Left-wing politics over the past five years – including the Occupy movement and the Wikileaks movement – were both given to conspiracy-theorising and both also had a bit of a problem with anti-Semitism. So Occupy was kickstarted by Adbusters, a magazine convinced that powerful corporations control the masses’ fickle minds. In 2004, Adbusters published a disgustingly anti-Semitic article titled “Why Won’t Anyone Say They Are Jewish?”, which listed the neocons in the Bush administration and put a black mark next to the names of those who are Jewish. Not surprisingly, Occupy itself, which was obsessed with the baleful influence of small cliques of bankers and other faceless, evil people, often crossed the line into anti-Semitism, as the Washington Post reported. And Wikileaks, too, which is also a borderline conspiracy-theory outfit, what with its obsession with the “conspiratorial interactions among the political elite”, has had issues with anti-Semitism: one of its key researchers, Israel Shamir, was exposed by the Guardian as being “notorious for [his] Holocaust denial and publishing a string of anti-Semitic articles”.
It is not an accident that the three key planks of the Left-wing outlook today – the anti-Israel anti-war sentiment, the shallow anti-capitalism of Occupy, and the worship of those who leak info from within the citadels of power – should all have had issues with anti-Semitism. It is because the left, feeling isolated from the public and bereft of any serious means for understanding modern political and economic affairs, has bought into a super-simplistic, black-and-white, borderline David Icke view of the world as a place overrun and ruled by cabals and cults and sinister lobby groups. And who has always, without fail, been the final cabal, the last cult, to find themselves shouldering the ultimate blame for the warped, hidden workings of politics, the economy and foreign turmoil? You got it – the Jews.

Who cares, actions speak louder than words, the savage Jew Netanyahu has more in tune with Joseph Goebbels than any aspect of a decent human being, the Jews are committing the Palestinians to genocide, those are the facts and actions.
The words of this article come from some chap described "as having shifted from a far left position to an extreme stance on the libertarian right",,,that figures.

You are asking me to differentiate and respect the actions of nazis, the fact that these Jews act like nazis provides a plethora of information for a just comparison.
Enough is enough, the victim card of history has been played too often.

Re: Is the Left anti-Semitic? Sadly, it is heading that way
This debate is also confusing because Islamists are generally conservative...at least according to liberal principles. Their views on women, on justice and on humanism generally, run contrary to what we would consider liberal.
The only way they fit into the LW pattern, is in their status (as victim) and the general racism with which the western white community regards them.

You hold a poor biased opinion though buddy, you are saying it is wrong to attack the Palestinians and not say when they attack Israel is the same, thy both are disgusting. Do you see how easy you are swayed on views and then make daft associations with Nazism?
That is an insult to the victims of Nazism, because it is no where even like that, to equate such bullshit is nothing but Marxist bullshit.

Re: Is the Left anti-Semitic? Sadly, it is heading that way
I'm very much against the actions of the Israeli government, but I don't hold that against all Jewish people by any extent. I feel the exact same way about the actions of ISIS, actually.
I do think it's a bit rich for a conservative to blame the left of indulging in conspiracy theories. Maybe the tendency isn't as pronounced among British conservatives (who still often talk about gay people, Muslims and "foreigners" as though they get together for secret meetings and have secret handshakes), but in the U.S., the conspiracy theories are almost exclusively formed by the right and feature the left as the people with secret agendas and nefarious purposes.

That is nonsense as well, as we have seen with Mao to Stalin etc, where extremist left wing views are appalling, what is more the point is not the view point but how that view point is expressed and acted upon

You see Korben that is an honest answer
You also seem to have a problem with sentence structures (or maybe its me you like trying to make look foolish because of my dislexia )
as said
"I don't agree with what Israel is doing"
Now if I am not mistaken the word Israel in that sentence is used as a collective noun
In linguistics, a collective noun is a collection of things taken as a whole
Are you saying Israel isn`t bombing Gaza because it sure look that way to me

You tell me. the reality is in the New Testament the Jews are blamed just as you are doing now Scrat, just as you now blame capitalism onto Jews which is odd because so was Communism, seems these Jews just cannot seem to catch a break, every fucker hates them as seen by your answer to blame them, just because they are religiously and ethnically Jews
