‘the wrong sort of Jew’ – the left’s latest antisemitic conspiracy theory

I want to start with an exercise. Google the phrase ‘the wrong sort of Jew‘ (you can repeat the test replacing the word ‘sort’ with ‘kind‘ or ‘type‘.) Scanning the results from the first few pages, one thing becomes absolutely clear – this phrase is exclusively reserved for a hard-left attack against mainstream Jewry.

Conflation – Labour Party antisemitism is in the details and the media

Yevsektsiya AND JVL antisemitic boycotts

History repeating: Jewish Voice for Labour, today’s Yevsektsiya

How is this for a fun fact: A small group of anti-Zionist Jews set out to oppose Habima theatre, discredit them, have them boycotted, and remove any official support they received. These people wanted Habima, and their ‘Zionism’ sent packing. Does it sound familiar? It shouldn’t, because those responsible were not ‘Jews for Boycotting Jewish Goods’, they were the communist ‘Yevsektsiya’ and these actions were … Continue reading History repeating: Jewish Voice for Labour, today’s Yevsektsiya
