“Answering the question “Which of the following do you feel especially unfavorable toward?” 35 percent named Israel – scoring two points worse than Iran, the poll found.”
Just out of curiosity. How many other countries were on the list of choices, and which ones were actually listed? The results of the survey would probably be a whole lot different if it were an open ended question where the respondent had to supply the answer without any prompting.
Exactly.
Who were asked?. And VERY importantly, these questions were asked about ISRAEL not Jews. Criticism of Israel is NOT anti-Semitism!. Its no more ‘antisemitic’ to criticise Israel as a nation state than its ‘racist’ to dislike Obama.
Equating criticism of Israel with actual anti-Semitism is a lazy and cheap trick.
