So anti-Semitism comes from the " middle class left " ?


Trump steps up anti-immigrant campaign on eve of US election  

How credible is the mainstream capitalist news media suggestion that Trump himself is anti-Semitic though popular in Israel and having Jewish family connections ? I just read this article in " The Militant ", the voice of the Socialist Workers Party of the United States, still led -or misled - by Jack Barnes : " Join in denouncing Jew hatred -a deadly threat to the working class ". I read this curious sentence in the November 12, 2018 article :


[” Much of today’s anti-Semitism comes from the middle-class left, forces whose opposition to Israel carries over into broader Jew-hatred.
" ]
In fact the SWP now embraces Zionism and the " middle class left " has recognized this.


Is this not the same smear prevailing in the British Labor Party against Jeremy Corbyn ? Anti-Zionism is always in peril of becoming anti-Semitism ?


Do not Jewish liberals in the United States alarmed by the specter of " White Supremacy " lose moral credibility when they never criticize Apartheid Israel ?
