At one time Foxman was a good leader and fighter of anti-Semitism, but over time, he lost sight of who the real enemy was and blindly turned on patriotic Americans.

If he had left 15 years ago, he would have had a great legacy attached to his name. As it is now, it is only fair-to-good.

Re Jesse Jackson. The SOB had a KGB operative on his staff from the late 60’s and never got rid of him. In fact, Jack O’Dell was one of Jackson’s key foreign affairs advisors and contact with the old Assad regime in Syria, among other Moslem/leftist organizations.

O’Dell was the one who kept Jackson on the Marxist-left of politics and involved in pro-PLO affairs/fronts (Palestine Human Rights Campaign, and the united Marxist-Arabist “Arab-American Anti-Discrimination Committee”).

Sometimes Foxman got “out-foxed” by the left.

I see.
I can understand leftist politics in supposedly do-good outfits

as long as they do what they claim they do!!

but with ADL, and I applaud what good work they DO do, they do NOT deliver or, imho, even seem to do anything at all.....to help innocent people who are under assault from anti-Semitic government personnel

maybe you know someone who did get some help from ADL, there MUST be some people who have......hopefully, hopefully, anyway

but just between you and me... do NOT count on ADL if you ever need any assistance defending yourself against discrimination of any kind...............they may review your case and agree you’ve unfortunately got a very good one.....they may assign you an “expert attorney” and they may SAY they will help you..... but then.....forget it.
They just might do NOTHING... just keep you waiting to hear from them... and then not answer your queries... all the while promising... well, you get the idea.

As far as I go, there are many other organizations one can donate to. ADL sounds good, given they’ve pretty well occupied the ‘anti-discrimination’ turf in the public mind........................but sounding good and actually helping people in trouble.............are two very different things.

IMHO, your mileage may vary.

his organization formed an interfaith coalition to defend mosque construction elsewhere in the U.S. …

A US controlled atoll somewhere in the pacific would be the only locale acceptable to ME

Frank was killed by progressive klansmen. Appreciate the irony of that reality and the fact that the ADL is progressive and not Jewish

Pretty sure “The Who” had a song about this.

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.....

I for one, won’t be fooled again.

Many years later, the black janitor at the factory who had testified against Frank at the trial, when close to death, confessed to the murder of the girl.

Do you have a source for that?

I believe you but I'd like to post a source when people say "Leo Frank got what he deserved."

Thanks in advance.

He didn’t speak for me or my family either.
