I am no supporter of Jeremy Corbyn but I wonder are some being dishonest in their allegations of anti Semitism! He is opposed to Israeli policy against Palestinians, as are many Jews in Israel, but being anti Israel is not anti Jewish!.

The murder of an unarmed female Palestinian Nurse by Israeli Forces must be condemned by all reasonable people. The Israeli denial of Human Rights for the people of Gaza will eventually lead to an explosion of violence which is not in the interests of either Palestine or Israel!.

Many years ago I took my family to Auschwitz. It was horrific. Every child should visit it as a warning how man can be so cruel to man. I have also visited Gaza and am surprised that Israelis can be so cruel to Palestinians having experienced Auschwitz.
