The Left's Jewish Problem: Jeremy Corbyn, Israel and Anti-Semitism

Relations between British Jews and the left are in crisis, a situation reaching its nadir when the Labour Party was forced to suspend Naz Shah and Ken Livingstone over comments they made about Israel. Yet, until the 1980s, the British left was broadly pro-Israel.

This change did not happen by chance: political activists made it happen. This book reveals who they were, why they chose Palestine and how they sold their cause to the rest of the left. It explains why more people will march in the streets of today's Britain to protest against Israel than any other country. It is about the anti-Israel left of Jeremy Corbyn, Ken Livingstone and George Galloway, born out of anti-apartheid campaigns and now allies itself with Islamist extremists who demand Israel's destruction.
