Israel's Latest Targets, and racism.
There have been recent discussion of of anti-semitism on this site, begun by M.J.Rosenberg and seconded by Kenneth Baer, both relying on little more than cowardly, and McCarthyite, tactics of insinuation.
"Now I understand you Jew-haters out there prefer the term anti-Zionist. Yeah, yeah."
And I have been warned that I risk expulsion?
"If you want to see the State of Israel eliminated, a nation with 6 million Jews living in it, you are advocating the mass murder of Jews. And you know that."
I do? If I wanted Apartheid South Africa eliminated, does that mean I wanted the elimination of the Boers? Do I know that?!
I will no longer use four letter words against those for whom I feel nothing but bitter contempt. And when I make accusations of racism, I will, unlike Baer and Rosenberg, be detailed and specific.
In the meantime, read Juan Cole.





Bravo!
Thank you for the action alert, Seth.
Peace.
