Asa Winstanley’s book shows how the Israel lobby facilitated the influence of a foreign government’s interests in dictating who gets to lead the Labour Party, causing the downfall of Jeremy Corbyn.

The British empire – and particularly the British Labour Party – bears historical responsibility for the Zionist colonization of Palestine which ultimately led to the expulsion of the Palestinians.

In “Weaponising Anti-Semitism,” Asa Winstanley effectively debunks the allegations of antisemitism the Israel lobby used to “bring down” Jeremy Corbyn, but downplays the role of British imperialism in creating the Palestine problem.

Asa Winstanley’s new book shows how the Israel lobby weaponized antisemitism to create a new McCarthyism to bring down Jeremy Corbyn and those building a genuine socialist Labour Party.

The good news of Israeli leaders smearing Emma Watson as an antisemite for a mil expression of Palestinian solidarity is that this time even establishment types questioned the timeworn strategy, and may even have noticed the anti-Palestinian bigotry that animates it.
