Lapid blasts UK Labor leader Corbyn for comparing Israel to ISIS
June 30, 2016Lapid referenced this morning’s (Thursday) murder of 13-year-old Hallel-Yaffa Ariel by a Palestinian terrorist in his statement, saying: “It is inconceivable that on such a tragic day for Israel, on which an innocent girl is murdered by an evil terrorist lowlife simply for the crime of being Jewish, the head of the opposition in Britain will draw an equivalence between Israel and ISIS.
“This is a vile comparison that betrays ignorance. This is pure anti-Semitism. The State of Israel is a life-loving country that operates according to principles of democracy, morality, and justice, and fights against terror groups whose sole objective is the murder and maiming of innocents.”
“I call for the Labor party in Israel to sever all ties with its British namesake until party leader Jeremy Corbyn is replaced,” Lapid concluded.
