I don’t feel making a comparison of numbers is too helpful, especially when it’s a matter of official members in an organization against the total number of people with religious similarities. I can’t make much more of a comment than that as I don’t feel properly educated in the subject matter.

Also, I couldn’t agree with the last paragraph more.

Leeds Student Union did indeed reject the EUMC definition of antisemitism. Can only assume they didn’t read it properly.

I assume that’s who they mean – I’m not aware of another organisation of that name that has any members. Religious fanatics who detest other Jews to the extent that they look to Ahmedinajad as an agent of divine vengeance. I wonder what the total social security spend of the state of Israel is on “Jews against Zionism”.

JR, is that True Torah Jews Against Zionism they mean, then?

That would be very weird – it’s like invoking the Anabaptists as evidence that the Catholics have got it wrong.

I think they might mean the old Greenstein/Rance outfit, now defunct, but the same faces are to be seen in the International Jewish Anti-Zionist Network, which may last a year or so before the energy goes out of it and it’s relaunched as something else. Somebody should ask them.

“Jews against zionism” as I understand it is an umbrella for Neturei Karta and other ultra-orthodox wingnuts, many of whom like to hang out in Israel whilst at the same time calling the soldiers who protect them “nazis” and so forth. Does anyone know what this figure of 150k supporters is based on?
