"Being an anti-Zionist is not PC, even if it is as fashionable as all get out among the radical left."

Anti-Zionism has nothing to do with being PC and everything to do with gross immorality. Israel is the only country in the world whose destruction is openly called for. The Jews are the only people who are denied the inherent right to self-determination by anti-Zionists.

Of course anti-Zionism is anti-Semitism. Can you imagine someone who called for the destruction of let us say for example Sweden not being considered anti-Swedish? What individual outside the confines of a lunatic asylum would claim that "I wish to destroy Sweden but I am not anti-Swedish"?

Israel is the only country in the world whose destruction is openly called for.

That is ridiculous. There are still plenty of FReepers who will post a whole slew of nuclear mushroom clouds after the mention of a Muslim name in casual conversation. There was a map floating around on the threads awhile back with most of the middle east renamed as U.S. oil companies (liek Exxon etc.) and I think another with Iraq written as New Texas. There is currently a thread up talking about offering Iraq statehood (nuts, but it would get rid of the country 'Iraq'). Countless countries have been chopped up, renamed, colonized, recolonised, etc. and will continue to be so for quite some time. In Europe many are just itching to get rid of their countries and create a new make believe country called the EU.

I think this MP is blatantly anti-Zionist and quite probably anti-semitic. But the concept that only Jews have been victims of history is asking a bit too much. Ever heard of the Highland Clearances? Probably not, considering it's not even taught in Scottish history books.

Several million Scots killed or forcibly exported, packed on ships 700+ per trip, conditions that were illegal for African slave ships even at the height of the trade. At least half died before landing in America, Canada, and Australia on what were nicknamed "coffin boats". Those who landed were often either bare naked or wearing burlap feed sacks.

You don't hear Scots jumping up and down whining and crying "anti-Scot" everytime something rotten happens to them or any time someone calls a fellow Scot a name or comments on how aweful the bagpipes sound. Moral of the story, we all hate a racist and will help to "out the bastard", but the incessant whining about how the world hates the poor Jews and only the Jews is run out and ragged.

Jews have a wonderful little country called Israel that can easily defend itself against 500 million Arabs, and the diaspora have achieved noted success in countries all over the world. Life is good, enjoy it. Idiots like this MP are what they are, but please, spare me the "only the Jews are hated" melodrama.
