Hysterical and absurd 

Your correspondent Raphael Sylvester (Letters, November 22) like is sure that Jeremy Corbyn is not personally antisemitic.  

I on the other hand believe his Jew-hatred is a modern version of the old 1930’s antisemite who, after making negative remarks about Judaism, would then say: “It’s not you I hate. Some of my best friends are Jews”. 

Today’s version is: “I’ve got nothing against the Jews. It’s those terrible racist Israelis I can’t stand”. 
This can all be settled very quickly if Jeremy Corbyn will answer one simple question: “If you are elected Prime Minister, will you continue to maintain the same friendly relations with Israel we have at present”? 

Don’t hold your breath for an answer.
