Zack Polanski refuses to back Israel’s right to exist at by-election hustings
Jewish Green leader declared himself an antizionist and claimed Zionism was ‘racism’
Valoración
A Jewish Green Party candidate openly refusing to affirm Israel's right to exist and labeling Zionism as racism is not a fringe provocation, it is a signal of where the British left has moved on Jewish political identity. At a by-election, this stance forces Jewish voters to decide whether their communal security depends on liberal pluralism or on parties that treat Jewish national rights as illegitimate. The next question is whether the Green Party leadership will endorse, distance from, or discipline his position.
