EQUIVALENCE: Corbyn compares Israel to Islamic State at launch of anti-Semitism report.
“Our Jewish friends are no more responsible for the actions of Israel than our Muslim friends are for the self-styled Islamic State,” Corbyn told reporters at the event.
“Nor should Muslims be regarded as sexist, antisemitic or otherwise suspect, as has become an ugly Islamophobic norm. We judge people on their individual values and actions, not en masse,” he continues.
When asked if he just compared Israel to the Islamic state, Corbyn quickly denied having made any such connection, only to repeat his previous statement.
Why are leftwing institutions such hotbeds of Jew hatred?
