My suspicion is that Corbyn simply wasn't paying much attention and he signed on to the objection against wiping out this mural. I can't say about Britain, but in my experience here in the US - and speaking as one who is of Jewish descent - I really have not encountered very much anti-semitism on the left here. I think the idea that it's rising on the left is largely a myth perpetrated at least indirectly by those who equate opposition to Zionism with anti-semitism.
Except that this campaign has been going on for a long time now and people have to be on guard. Perhaps the only good thing to come out of this is a heightened awareness to be less stupid. In a way, it is the same sort of advice if heeded could have saved George Ciccariello-Maher his job.
