The row about anti-Semitism in the British Labour Party has become an exercise in name-calling, but behind the politics lies a thorny issue for public discourse in Europe and the Middle East. How are anti-Semitism and and anti-Zionism defined, and where do they overlap? Where is the line between legitimate criticism and abuse? To discuss, London Editor Denis Staunton, journalist and campaigner with Gaza Action Ireland Harry Browne and Yanky Fachler of the Jewish Representative Council of Ireland are in studio.
