That there is a significant number of antisemites in the momentum group is a given, the deeply left wing of any party are wedded to this "shylock" control of the money mantra.
That the Chief Rabbi is acting politically is also a given, the MOSSAD statement is clearly rubbish, but there is little doubt he has some affiliation with the state of Israel and hence deeply hostile to Corbyns support of the Palestinians. There is no chance of an existential threat to UK jews, and it was a deeply inflammatory thing to say. Religious leaders should not meddle in the democratic process in this manner and doing so provides ammunition to anti semites.
Corbyn is not guilty of being an anti semite, he is however guilty of being a terribly weak leader, demonstrated by his inability and lack of control over the anti semite agenda from both sides.
If any Jew in the UK thinks they are discriminated against, they should try being a Muslim. Then they would get some idea of hostility.
