The deputy director of the World Zionist Organization and head of the department for fighting anti-Semitism, Yaakov Haguel, responded to anti-Semitic comments issued by a number of senior British Labor party members.
"Time after time members of the Labor party don't learn their lesson with their repeated anti-Semitic statements. They are once again trying to erase history and the great pain which the Jewish nation experienced in the previous century. It is good that other members criticized this behavior and it would be better if statements such as these will not be repeated and they will attempt to fix their problematic history and act positively," Haguel said.
