Corbyn as ex leader would have had sight of it earlier . He's tried to fight his corner when like you say he might have been better taking some time before responding.
Suspending him seems pretty harsh and will almost certainly start off a major rift in the party just when things were starting to come together. And what for anyway ? JC and his allies were already sidelined. It seems a bit a needless.
I don't think corbyn is antisemitic at all. Just a weak leader who didn't know how to deal with the parties mechanisms well enough, and his office interfered wrongly and dragged their feet in dealing with a small proportion of nastiness to preserve criticism of Israel at all costs. Reading the report it looks like they did eventually try and sort it but the damage was already done.
