Antisemitisme in Britse Palestine Solidarity Campaign

De Britse Palestine Solidarity Campaign, een radikaal antizionistische organisatie in Groot Brittannië, heeft onlangs twee moties verworpen tegen openlijk antisemitisme en Holocaust ontkenning binnen de eigen organisatie. Zoals David Hirsh van Engage bericht:

Tony Greenstein is an anti-Zionist who believes that Zionism is like Nazism, that Zionists helped the Nazis carry out the Holocaust, that Israel, uniquely, is an essentially and unchangeably racist state.
Sue Blackwell is an anti-Zionist who is best known for campaigning to exclude Israeli academics from university campuses, conferences and journals around the world. Blackwell believes that Israel is an "illegitimate" state.
Roland Rance is an anti-Zionist who campaigns for the "dismantlement of the Zionist structure of the state of Israel".

All three have been demonizing Israel, passionately and constantly for decades. They have been fighting hard for all the staple anti-Zionist principles, without rest. Israel is an apartheid state, they say, its trade unions are not real workers organisations, they say, its universities are structures of oppression, they say, its civilians are not really civilians, they argue, its anti-racists are really racists, they declare.

But now the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) in the UK has rejected them because they dared to stand up against open antisemitism within the movement.
This weekend they came to the PSC conference with two motions (reproduced below) arguing that those who push Holocaust denial and open antisemitism should be excluded from the PSC. Their motions were almost unanimously defeated.
