You might find this article interesting. Antisemitism is a slippery slope. I don't think a person can love the Lord and hate his people.

According to various media outlets, the law review’s board of directors, composed of faculty and alumni, tried to censor an article critical of Israel. Except that’s not what happened at all. The true story involves a faction of the law review secretly breaking all procedural rules and customs to publish a piece of ideologically driven claptrap.

The New York Times chimed in on the side of the cabal, claiming that the "decision to suspend access to the website is the latest example of how American universities have sought to regulate expression that is highly critical of Israel amid concerns that it veers into antisemitism." In fact, the board of directors’ concerns were entirely procedural, and they did not seek to regulate anyone’s expression.

As if this misbehavior was not sufficient, after the board of directors suspended the website, the editorial cabal apparently leaked the story to the Intercept, an anti-Israel, leftist website, to make it appear that they and the author were victimized for an article criticizing Israel.
