They conspired with the Israel lobby to mount a vicious campaign of character assassination against Corbyn and his supporters, accusing them, even if they were Jewish, of anti-Semitism. Corbyn has been a long-time champion of Palestinian rights. The media did its part to crucify Corbyn as a bigot while Labour party officials ruthlessly purged the party of Corbyn supporters.

In his newly published book, The Weaponisation of Anti Semitism, Asa Wistanley illustrates the time of Jeremy Corbyn at the helm of the Labour Party to being vilified and expelled from the party he represented for 4 decades, as an example of how Anti Semitism can be weaponized and used to eliminate pro-Palestinian voices.
