This is another nugget of gold from the Beast.

The most disturbing aspect of this is that the mainstream media – the mass-market newspapers and TV channels that are reporting the words of organisations like the Community Security Trust as though these people are above reproach – could have found this information themselves, if only they had bothered to do some research.

Ah, but how much traction would the campaign against Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour have gained, if those accusing him of anti-Semitism were found to be politically allied with the Israeli government that wants Mr Corbyn removed from the Labour leadership?

The Shai Masot ‘Israeli embassy’ scandal made it clear that we don’t appreciate interference in our politics from foreign countries, and Israel already has ‘form’ in this regard.

So, why did the newspapers and TV channels keep schtum?

Work it out for yourself.

One of the organisations weighing to accuse Corbyn of anti-Semitism last week was the Community Security Trust. This is an outfit that some have described as ‘an unelected vigilante force’.

In 2011 the Electronic Intifada published an article by Asa Winstanley about the CST’s links to Mossad, and how it also confuses anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism, its lack of transparency – it asked the Charity Commission for special dispensation so that it did not have to reveal the names of its trustees – and how it is a multi-million pound organisation, whose founder and chair, Gerald Ronson, claim to have connections to the highest levels of the Israeli government, like Benjamin Netanyahu.

There is also evidence that the CST lobbies politically for Israel.

The article concluded: “Nevertheless, the CST will need to respond to these serious charges eventually. In court in September, UK Border Agency case worker Jonathan Rosenorn-Lanng referred to the CST as “the Jewish community” — yet it is clear the group does not represent the entire community. The British government should ask itself how appropriate it is to maintain such strong links to an organization so politically compromised.”
