The openly anti-Semitic group that calls itself the U.S. Labor Party is currently facing severe internal problems, including the defection of 117 of its key leaders, according to the American Jewish Committee’s Trends Analyses Division. Informed sources report, says AJC, that the 117 Party leaders quit the group because of the blatant anti-Semitism of Lyndon LaRouche Jr., the party’s chairman. LaRouche responded to the defections, AJC goes on, by claiming that the Party had been infiltrated by “spies” from various “enemy camps.”
