The dirty little secret of the “diversity” agenda

If there’s one concept in Western progressive circles that is deemed essential for a decent society, it’s “social inclusion.” The promotion of diversity is assumed to be morally unchallengeable.
That’s also the prevalent attitude among Jews in both America and Britain.
Many if not most support liberal immigration policies and equate antisemitism with “Islamophobia.” The belief is that those who are against immigration and diversity will be against the Jews too.
In fact, the opposite is the case.
The default narrative on the left is venomous hostility to Israel. This is the “new antisemitism,” singling out Israel for demonization based on lies and distortions afforded to no other country, people or cause, and which has legitimized antisemitic tropes straight out of the Nazi or medieval Christian playbooks.
In Britain, this has all but consumed the Labour Party under its far-left leader, Jeremy Corbyn. In the United States, it is making steady and unchecked headway in the Democratic Party.
But what has not been acknowledged is that this is being fueled by the embrace of diversity.
