Self-Styled Useful Idiot Jeremy Corbyn Hits Bottom, Keeps Digging

What's he digging? Why, his own political grave, of course:
LONDON — Trying to address accusations of anti-Semitism in Britain’s opposition Labour Party, its embattled leader, Jeremy Corbyn, on Thursday provoked more outrage by comparing Israel to “self-styled Islamic states or organizations.” 
Mr. Corbyn’s comment drew instant condemnation from colleagues and Israeli politicians, who initially believed that he had said “Islamic State” rather than Islamic states. But members of his staff insisted that he was actually referring to countries such as Pakistan and Saudi Arabia — which are not self-styled and generally are called “Muslim nations” — or to organizations like Hamas. (Israelis would hardly be mollified by the clarification, given that Hamas is a Palestinian group classified as terrorist by Britain and the United States.)
So what did Corbyn actually say? It was this:
Our Jewish friends are no more responsible for the actions of Israel or the Netanyahu government than our Muslim friends are for those of various self-styled Islamic states or organizations.
The unintentionally hilarious thing is that Corbyn thinks that this is supposed to placate the Jews.

The sooner this odious creep vacates the political scene, the better.
