It is alleged that Glenn Greenwald is an anti-Israel American Jew.

More on Glenn Greenwald, 'Israel-Firsters,' and Idiot Editors (Updated)

From The Atlantic

Excerpt: " In the case of Greenwald, here is what I think, from afar, since we've never met. When I write that Greenwald's ostentatious anti-Israelism is "fine, of course," I'm not endorsing his views, I'm simply acknowledging that he has a right to say whatever he wants -- he has a right even to defend the use of the neo-Nazi-derived anti-Semitic slur "Israel-Firster" to describe Jews with whom he disagrees -- and I'm also acknowledging, in a way, that he is not sui generis: There have always been Jews who define themselves in opposition to Judaism, Marxists mainly," [truncated]

What difference at this point does it make?
