to not know what Ken Livingstone said?

[cjt110]

I know Naz Shah said about moving Jews to Israel or something along those lines but I saw on the News that ken Livingstone had also been suspended over a Nazi comment but it didn't mention what he said. Can anyone shed some light?

I think (?) zionism is the belief in creation of a Jewish State? Although I;m also not very clear on it. And Anti-semitism is prejudice/hatred against Jews.

So what KL is saying is that Hilter supported a Jewish state when elected but got pissed off and decided to kill them all?

Thank you CJT.

yes good point BillSykesDog

I just don't understand politics, or politicians for that matter. Why would someone say something that is very inflamatory and expect to get away with it? Moron.

Well, you don't have to understand why someone in politics would say something inflamatory.

Taking an interest in politics is knowing the context in which things are said. It includes knowing about zionism, the state of Israel, and what different people think about it.
Politics influence our lives. It's more than scandals about what particular politicians have said. :)
