Talk:Antisemitism in the British Labour Party/Archive 9

Reform Coalition report). The defence case tends to be articulated by individuals and organisations. Most of the reporting in the conventional news sources is highly partisan to various degrees, a result, probably, of their having a viewpoint out of sympathy with the current leftwing, pro-Palestinan views of Jeremy Corbyn, Momentum and individual MPs who now have more power than previously. A neutral approach would recognise the partisan and counter-factual quality of much of the conventional reporting and that it forms a viewpoint rather than a balanced and accurate statement of fact. Instead, we have the insistence on the reliability of those sources. To add insult to injury, while excluding defence case opinions as fringe, we also have the inclusion of individual opinions where the conform to the prosecution case on the grounds that those individuals are experts or notable. I suppose that those who are, in effect, trying to obliterate the defence case don't view the situation in terms of pro and contra viewpoints, but in terms of what is true (the prosecution case) and what is a fringe aberration. Practising "writing for the opponent" is the ideal. Most editors fall short to various degrees. Those who fall short most severely strangle attempts to include a fair account of the opposition case.

now NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg of being "anti-semites". Gerstenfeld has published books about his views on Norway and written several newspaper articles that have been controversial. Norway's largest newspaper and main newspaper of record, the conservative daily Aftenposten, has described Gerstenfeld in an editorial as a far-right extremist and fanatic. Imre Hercz, a Norwegian doctor and well-known member of Norway's Jewish community, has condemned Gerstenfeld's "propaganda war against Norway". According to expert on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict Hilde Henriksen Waage, Gerstenfeld is a central figure in a smear campaign against Norway on the Israeli far-right. Odd-Bjørn Fure, Norway's main anti-semitism expert and founding director of the Center for Studies of the Holocaust and Religious Minorities, has said that Gerstenfeld "is not worth arguing against. I prefer to deal with serious people. We do not take this person seriously

the extent of antisemitic attitudes in the UK and to correlate them with such factors as political orientation. That poll indicated that, in 2017 when it was carried out at least, contrary to your claim, the attitudes surveyed were not most prevalent in the Labour Party. Note that I did not argue that there wasn't a problem with antisemitism in the Labour Party and nor was I arguing that antisemitism among Labour Party members doesn't matter because it is worse in some other parties. In your response you argued that a poll carried out in 2017 is no longer relevant. If you have reason to think that levels and distributions of antisemitism in the UK may have changed substantially in the last two years, please supply your evidence. You also alluded to two polls carried out for

political stance and circulation size of Morning Star are not barriers to it being treated as a reliable source. It covers a range of left wing political issues and views. Given that the national press are all anti-Corbyn, it is important that we allow the voice of the LP and its supporters to emerge. Regarding this particular instance: I think JVP should be excluded, as they are too distant from the issue. I think IJV should be excluded if there is not a RS (I did not see one). JSG is small, it is not stated what the role of David Rosenberg is within the organization or that he is speaking on behalf of the organization, or the context of his words. So he is only speaking for himself, which is not enough. So, I think he should be excluded too.

4327:... They are a US based anti-zionist activist group and, while I agree entirely with their mission statement, the relevance of their opinion on a joint editorial by UK newspapers about a UK politician is extremely questionable. Of the other two groups, Independent Jewish Voices are more credible by a long way and I would not question their inclusion. Jewish Socialists' Group on the other hand is a fringe group and their inclusion is unwarranted. It isn't really up for debate that the three UK papers represent a majority view of UK Jews on this topic. If we are to include a counterpoint to it, a single short sentence covering IJV's letter would be as much as could be reasonably justified. 3089:, which I fortunately rarely need to add anything to). But I don't see it here. Any time some public figure is dubiously accused of some offensive "-ism", it's always an accusation by a subset of people who could be offended (namely, an over-reactive and easily offended subset who imagine themselves mind-readers who always know what someone's intent is). It's implicit in the nature of that entire kind of public controversy that not every single person who could have that perception does have it, much less that they must have it because of their cultural or genetic background. Remember that it's not WP's job to determine whether someone 3165:. . What I see is far too much prose overall, no sense of encyclopedic synthesis, and repeated edit battles over include/exclude when any experienced editor/writer could sum up the fact that 29 rabbis, 12 Holocaust survivors, Labour Jewish groups and public intellectuals of Jewish background do not concur with the polled Jewish majority in a short 4/5 sentence paragraph. Since that is possible,the keep in as a significant minority/keep out as fringe tussle is a exasperatingly pointless refusal to master the art of précis, which would allow all angles to be covered in probably a fifth of the space used up just to cover some of them. 3491:, nothing, Icewhiz. The original removal was based on an egregiously false edit summary or pretext. To shift the goalposts by ignoring this fact, then to justify the deletion with other vague opinions, is a show of poor editing practice, more whack-a-mole that craft. This is relevant because the accusation of anti-Semitism is embedded in a political struggle over British policy regarding Israel and the systematic documentation of every picayune nuance in the former, while ignoring the political ramifications (here remarked on), is tantamount to playing politics with the page. I've added 3145:). Blow by blow sourcing is hectic, frantic indeed, over what to winnow, and what to glean. When that runs into a two/three year long day by day editing regime, the result is going to be awkward, inevitably. Just as an observer, I would expect that via Merton's law of self-fulfilling prophecies, esp. were Labour to lose the next election, this hullabaloo, and those who promote it, would naturally feed the resentment of the defeated esp by playing into the anti-Semitic fantasy of a small elite dictating national outcomes. 949:

series of activists; and as their approach has been to uses the results of often surreptitious investigations of individuals; the media's pattern of activity and approach does seem relevant to the topic, as it speaks to why the topic is deemed notable. They are unlikely to critique themselves, so I think there is a role for media analysis in this topic. To speak plainly, even the media deemed RS have their own motives and constraints and should not be treated in every case as neutral or without agency.

1051:. An astonishing time is spent claiming Media Lens is credible because it has won a "prestigious" award. The award in question is so unknown that its wikipage is tagged for lacking references. I'm not saying the award is not a good thing, but it's hardly a major, well-known award. The fact of the matter is, as users have pointed out, that this is a blog run by two guys convinced that the "mainstream media is lying". So in short: a non-notable blog by two conspiracy theorists, who have 5585:. Survation asked 710 Jews their opinions about the UK political parties and their leaders. If you think that the result of those polls show that Labour party members, particularly or alone, are antisemitic, ask yourself whether you would accept as a matter of fact that the results of a similar poll of Palestinians would show that Netanyahu is a Fascist and Likudniks are howling racists. Note that usage of the word 'gaslighting' is now well past the point of being tedious. 38: 2324:

for claiming his letter had the support of a large section of the Charedi community in Stamford Hill", "Mr Stern was attacked by leaders of the Strictly Orthodox community who said he did not speak for them" (Strictly Orthodox = Hareid)). A letter whose main significance is possibly being a fake and being objected to by the community at large seems rather UNDUE - but if it is to be included, then the context should be clear (C / A).

1841:

has disputed this. "religious orthodox" is also incorrect - what we have is Mr. Shraga Stern (of the "strictly orthodox" / Haredi / Ultraorthodox) is organizing various letters (that then get disputed on various grounds - we're discussing this up in the talk page) - while most of the ultraorthodox community opposes him. I would name the Jewish groups supporting Corbyn specifically - which would be primarily JVL and JSG.

4676:. Please read the page, and this section, before voting. This is not about a 'fringe source'. It is about whether to include content or not. A movement is not a source, be it fringe or otherwise. The newspapers reporting the movement's actions constitute the sources, which can be mainstream or fringe. So, since you didn't understand this, it woulde be good to read the section, grasp what it's about and then 'revote'. 4970:

that objections are extreme. If you make the exceptional claim, with no wiki policy writ to back it, that he is on the pension and therefore ratshit, unless used with attribution, I suggest you argue that at the RSN board. openDemocracy is used elsewhere on this page, and no one has thought that odd. Why it should somehow transmogrify into non-RS because Lerman also wrote a piece for it, is inexplicable.

2929:]) had been withdrawn, and the JN that said "It appears, however, that the letter may well be authentic and the row over its appearance is part of an ongoing “turf war” within Stamford Hill as to who has overall authority in the community.". Multiple RS have covered this, have multiple RS covered the "photo opp" (and including it, anyway, does not mean as part of this incident, it should be separate. 3698:

of the source. On Lerman: I have a lot of respect for Lerman, but this page is filled with opinion pieces chosen fairly arbitrarily and we really don't need any more. Lerman is already quoted at length in the article at various points, and his opinion piece is not the best source for factual claims e.g. about the Chakrabarti report which was widely covered in news sources.

2489:. I'm unhappy at the wording: "Please indicate which of the following should be in the article." It's really not up to one editor to give other editors four different options and ask editors which one to use. Presumably, option A is the most recent version of what was in the article? Where did the other options come from? Note that the "prior discussion" ( 1182:"One of Medialens' less ingratiating habits is to suggest to their readers that they contact me at peter.barron@bbc.co.uk to complain about things we've done, so after every controversial episode I get hundreds of e-mails from sometimes less-than-polite hommes engages - they're almost always men - most of whom don't appear to have watched the programme." 2493:) is still open. You were asked to provide a suggested text for discussion, not to write a number of options and ask editors to choose between them. Personally, being unhappy with the wording of any of the options and viewing the nature of this RfC as malformed, I'm not going to regard any claims that the woding has been fixed by this RfC as valid. 5214:, a Haaretz journo, or someone else, that Gerstenfeld is 'one of the leading scholars today on anti-Semitism and on post-Holocaust studies' is familiar with neither of those scholarly disciplines, since they don't cite him. The book you refer this opinion to is edited by three people teaching at the West Bank's controversial settler institution, 3223:

an editor here. "A and B, therefore C" is acceptable only if a reliable source has published the same argument in relation to the topic of the article. If a single source says "A" in one context, and "B" in another, without connecting them, and does not provide an argument of "therefore C", then "therefore C" cannot be used in any article.

4974:, again , has nothing to do with this. The words quoted are from the Chakrabarti Report in any case do not require attribution to the author of the source where it is cited. I'll take it to RS, but really, if you make obviously strange claims without policy basis, you should be the one to address the appropriate noticeboard. 4888:

didn't challenge. So you are being totally incoherent. You cannot challenge an article by a scholar because he was in your view 'retired' in 2019, while leaving in an article from 2018 by the same scholar when, if you were correct, he was retired. This kind of random removalism hits the bottom of absurdity.

4400:

So, British Jews are percentually fringe in terms of the whole population, as ultra-orthodox Jews are fringe (under 10%) within British Jewry, and the 15% of British Jews who do not think Corbyn or his party anti-Semitic are also 'fringe' compared to the near consensus of the 85%. Not for that should

PS: Version C doesn't actually make sense in English, twice over. You can't "organise a letter" or "utilise a letter". That's like saying "erect a nap" or "snort an elephant"; those verbs just don't apply to those nouns. I think the first meant something like "a letter-writing campaign organised by

activist Shraga Stern in defense of Corbyn decried "fake antisemitism smears". While pro-Corbyn campaigners utilized the letter, Stern himself was condemned for saying he had the support of a large block of Stamford Hill's Haredi community by leaders of the community who said he did not speak for the

1492:

I didn't remove a story published in a RS haphazardly. I removed a letter to the editor, following BRD. And as you can continue to read, it is not worthy of inclusion. It was basically a letter pushed into people's hands and they didn't know what they were signing. In addition, a letter to the editor

904:

It's probably not much of an exagerration to say that WP:UNDUE is being cited to obliterate as much as possible of the case for the defence, a large element of which, as outlined in the Media Lens article, is the mis-reporting and disinformation contained in the conventional news media (see the Media

No, those statements are antisemitic, just as the statements by Tories, UKIP and Brexit party supporters are antisemitic. It is the "Corbin's Labour Party as the party of antisemitism" trope that is often IME fuelled by additional motivations, as I noted above. Also, as has been noted elsewhere, far

5540:

Again, please don't gaslight. 1. a survey from 2017 is nothing. 2. 85% of British Jews surveyed say Labour is antisemitic and a good chunk say they are thinking of emigrating should Corbyn become PM. To say that others are antisemitic is just wrong. Labour has an antisemitic problem and saying "well

You'd better provide a source for that quotation - copying from a wiki article does not excuse a BLP violation. Gerstenfeld has definitely criticized Norway for widespread antisemitism there - your personal opinion (or Norwegian popular media) on the issue matters little. Here's an opinion with some

I'm not convinced on the FRINGE opposition (I think JSG and IJV both represent valid viewpoints in this debate, even though they are clearly a minority within a minority), but more importantly this fails verifiability. Neither link mentions IJV. JSG is not supported by the first link, which is about

The hysteria documented here

4445:

Correct, as usual. My apologies. Don't know what happened, but hope your hypothesis, which suggests digital incompetence rather than senile hyperbole, explains it. Either that or somehow the figure popped up from some memory that at the end of WW2, 4.4% of the British Parliament consisted of members

As to this article, we are dealing with a controversy concerning 600,000 members of a party, and the over 12,000,000 people who voted for it (2014) and their ostensible attitudes to 0.5% of the English population. Mainstream newspaper coverage is predominantly against Corbyn, and to a lesser extent,

That is called shifting to goal posts, I was asked a question and answered. I am not going to answer another one because you failed to demonstrate that your response to my first answer was wrong. The issue was not is it not antisemitic, but that it is no more antisemitic, you have not demonstrated

Currently, about 3.5% of MPs are Jewish. The highest figure seems to have been after the 1966 election, when about 6.5% of MPs were Jewish - most of them Labour, as it happens.

You're implying that antisemitism in Labour is not really antisemitism but really just made up anti-Corbyn? So when someone said the "Jews declared war on the Nazis" that was not antisemitic? Sometimes antisemitism has nothing to do with Israel, and antisemites are just antisemites and they find a

Yes, take it to the RSN board. Your link does not lead to any such conclusion. All NGOs are 'advocacy' organizations (for human rights for example, or for ignoring them), but this does not translate into wiki practice of challenging them simply because they have a point of view. NPOV is balancing

Well that was interesting. I have no idea why you started spouting about "ultra-orthodoxy" (you know that's viewed as an insult by the people you're describing?). I also have no idea why you started spouting about the hasidim. It's fairly clear though that you think the two are one and the same.

We're currently running a RfC on inclusion of material from the fringes of the Ultraorthodox community in the article - it's not clear it should be in the article at all. You can find numerous Corbyn supporters (and detractors) of any profession - naming them in the lede (in either direction) is

Exactly, the systematic process of review and expulsion is non existent in the Labour Party, that's why a complaint was filed. Years of complaints and nothing was done, Corbyn himself sometimes held back reviews. So please don't say there is a complaint and review process in the Labour party.

Surely it is better to source factial info on Chakrabarti from news sources rather than op eds, even if the op eds are written by serious people like Seymour and Lerman? Re Gerstenfeld: I support his removal, along with all of the other opinion pieces not widely quoted in secondary sources.

If we used that logic, we would void most of the page, since the statistics are that 0.1% of the Labour membership has been accused of making antisemitic remarks, while 85% of the Jewish constituency is convinced that 'Anti-Semitism is rife' within the party. The former emerges from a simple

There are a lot more examples of elected Labour Councillors who have been suspended and investigated for anti-semitism... probably more than can be comfortably included within this article... perhaps a dedicated page should be set up. 2848:. There is a consistent effort throughout the editing process here to erase any mention of Jewish voices disagreeing with the 'official line' put down by the major Jewish political bodies.
