the fact that yer man that wrote it is Jewish is somewhat incidental to what i understood the point he was attempting to make.
I disagree. Racism can be nuanced and sometimes only picked up by those it is directed at. If Jewish people feel under attack, we should listen to them. If they think their identity has been hijacked to attack Corbyn, again, we should listen. I agree though, Cohen is a smart guy regardless his background.

Robert Cohen's a smart guy and i enjoy reading his stuff.
caveat - i am not Jewish (although i did attend a Jewish school for some years since we lived in a predominately Jewish endz back in the colonies - not that that is of any consequence, however if you need a goyim to blow the Shofar for you come Purim, look no further) and as such, my opinion on any matter relating to the wider Jewish experience can be safely ignored, as it can on any number of topics.
