Corbyn wrote in a Friday article for the Guardian that the Labour would stick to its code of conduct on anti-Semitism as it respected the rights of those Jews who were in fact not Zionists.

“[T]here are also many non- or anti-Zionist Jews who should not be branded as anti-Semites simply because they are not part of the Zionist tradition,” Corbyn said in the article, adding that the pressure on the party over the code came from people who want to “restrict criticism of Israel.”

"No one can teach us about sacrifice and preach to us about loyalty, and the military cemeteries can attest to that," Tarif continued. "Despite our unreserved loyalty, Israel doesn't see us as equals. As much as we fight for the existence and security of the state, we are just as determined to fight together with you for Israel's character and the right to live in it with equality and respect," he added.

“Reform Judaism is at the forefront of standing up to these kinds of bullies and abusers, and we have consistently demonstrated this. We know that there are many who express their anger and hurt far more constructively.
“People who act abusively will never have any influence over our decision making processes.”
Rabbi Janner-Klausner has previously warned that online targeting of the Kaddish participants – including death threats – was a “path to self-destruction”.

You can't reform a religion that a fixed scripture, if they don't like the religion, then they should leave, why is that so difficult for them.

Israel hands over 10 tons of letters, meds, wheelchairs to Palestine 8 years late

https://www.dailysabah.com/mideast/2018 ... years-late

Israel controls all entrances and exits to the occupied West Bank and can prevent goods passing through as it sees fit. The policies have crippled Palestine's economy and its residents' freedom of movement.

The Church of Scotland joins its Palestinian and Israeli partners in urging the Israeli government to halt plans to demolish Khan al Ahmar

Rev Dr Richard Frazer, Convener of the Church and Society Council]

Rev Dr Richard Frazer, convener of the Kirk’s Church and Society Council, said:
‘I was horrified by the reported events and plead with the Israeli authorities to stop the evacuation and demolition of Khan Al Ahmar and other Bedouin communities across the Occupied West Bank.
“Not only do such actions contravene international law and reflect badly on a nation that takes pride in being the only democracy in the Middle East, they undermine Israel’s stated commitment to a just peace based on the two-state solution.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Khan al Ahmar at this time.”
