“Allegations of anti-Semitism—committed by members, officials, and the leader himself—have been the running sore of Corbyn’s leftist takeover of the Labour Party ever since, and the sense of something gravely wrong has deepened with time.” The New Yorker’s Sam Knight on Jeremy Corbyn’s Anti-Semitism Crisis. The big issue here is less about Corbyn specifically, and more about the general European rightward lurch and the sense one gets that anti-semitism is back on the rise in the very places where it did so much damage just decades ago. And this is happening at a moment when America’s leadership role on issues such as these has almost entirely flatlined.
