One can make the claim that while Jews have a right to a nation, they do not have the right to take land occupied by others. That would not be Anti-semetic.
If you claim that Jews alone among the nations have no right to a nation-state, you are being anti-Semetic.
Did I say anything against the Jews mentioned in this article, who were protesting?
No you agree with them in attacking Israel.
Have I said 'all Jews', or even just 'Jews', in any of my previous posts? To my way of thinking, 'Israel' means those in charge of the gov't. & policy.
So America is the Bush admin? That is an odd position.
Even our media speak of the 'right-wing settlers' in Israel (isn't it kind of funny that those are the ones on the further-most outposts?), and of hardcore right-wing factions within the gov't.
So? What else would you call religious-nationalists?
I think some of you need to re-appraise your too-quick dismissal of others based on what you think they mean.
When in doubt I research. On questionable statment means nothing. A series has a meaning.
Same political mix that lobbied and arranged for the various PLO offices around the world, and sent representatives to Lebanon to participate in PLO/PFLP actions, in other words.
...you are on the wrong side of the thin line.
So you are calling me a Jew-hating anti-Semite (isn't that redundant, besides being ignorant?).
I thought we were having a rational discussion.
The problem is the ADL has gone beyond being simply another civic group which looks out for its members such as the Catholic League does. Under Clinton, the ADL became a quasi-governmental organization. FBI agents are required to take ADL courses. You can bet the ADL tracks the agents it trains. The ADL has received from and given to law enforcement information few or no citizens can legally obtain. No one knows the magnitude of the corporation between the ADL and Israel but there is no doubt it exists and is extensive. Does the ADL, at times, act as the agent of a foreign power? It is very possible. The ADL worked with Louie Freeh to track Christian "extremists" in anticipation of violence by Christians during Y2K. The ADL supports hate crime legislation. One look at Europe and the laws against free speech on the books there shows where the ADL is headed. The ADL does not want free speech. Those the ADL attacks have good reason for concern.
My thinking exactly, Kermit. This reminds me of the old tussles between the Stalinists and Trotskyites.
Bugs the heck out of you eh? :)
