Rebecca Long-Bailey shared an article promoting the modern-day blood libel that Israel trained American police in the tactics that resulted in George Floyd’s death.
On Thursday, British Labour Party leader Keir Starmer fired a top lawmaker named Rebecca Long-Bailey for spreading an article that promotes “an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory.”
The article in question included the claim that “the tactics used by the police in America, kneeling on George Floyd’s neck” had been learned from seminars with Israeli secret services, a libelous accusation that lacks even a shred of truth.
Starmer is in the process of trying to clean up the mess left by his left-wing predecessor, Jeremy Corbyn, who was deemed an anti-Semite by no less than UK Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis and was ousted after allowing the most vile forms of Jew-hatred to permeate party ranks.
