Listened to @OwenJones84’s panel on antisemitism last night. I was struck by @Tania_Shew’s remarks on our Lobby investigation, she says that we should have chosen a different name for our series.
Out of curiosity, what does @Tania_Shew think we should have called our investigation into the highly organised and well funded community of pro-Israel actors in the U.K. and the USA? (Maybe we can consult @AIPAC’s website for inspiration). https://www.aipac.org/about 
About Us

The mission of AIPAC is to strengthen, protect and promote the U.S.-Israel relationship in ways that enhance the security of the United States and Israel.

And - just my humble opinion! - is people’s general reluctance to call a spade a spade perhaps one of the reasons why the Left has become so vulnerable to these orchestrated and cynical manipulations of the past 5 years?
Once we have decided on a name that causes absolutely no offence to anyone, can we get on with the important job of exposing the people who cynically weaponise charges of anti-Semitism? I’m sure this job can be done without causing any offence, harm or hurt to anyone at all. 🙄
In the meanwhile, you can watch the Lobby USA, the series that offended so many people in the “pro-Israel community” before it ever saw the light of day! I wonder why that is... 🤔
