I’m old enough to remember the radicals of the late 60s/early 70s. They hated Israel and Jews (they used “Zionists” as a codeword long before Snobama’s minions); sadly many (but not all) of those radicals were JINOs and are now the aging lefties that will vote for snobama-messiah regardless of what his campaign blog posts about Jews and Israel.

I also remember when the Communist world propagandized against Israel relentlessly (I used to listen to short wave radio broadcasts in the Seventies). They put Israel in the same category as South Africa and Rhodesia. How was I to know that (at that time) so many conservatives didn't?

The American Left and Right have always been locked in their own dimension, with liberals pro-Israel and anti-PLO (even while supporting all the PLO's buddies) and many conservatives (outside the pro-Israel Biblical Fundamentalists) the exact opposite.

The funny thing is, Jewish former liberals ("neocons" as the "palaeos" call them) are up in arms over the current Left comparing Israel to South Africa. But the Communist world has done this for forty solid years and they only recently seem to have noticed.

Yep, I remember the Communist world propagandizing Israel as another South Africa. They stared doing that right after the Six Day War, if I recall.
