The first step, which many, including those in the Jewish community,
have begun to do, is to acknowledge that there is a problem and not to gloss over it as a "millennia-old religious conflict." I am not a self-hating Jew. I do not think all Jews are racist and bigoted. I also do not believe that to be Jewish is to be entirely supportive of the State of Israel. The kind of hate that has been directed at me – not because I shot rockets into Israel but simply because I express different views and that I traveled to an unfortunately controversial place – has, in its extreme-ness, caught me off guard. I expected outrage. I did not expect to lose a friend. Morgan Elzey http://mondoweiss.net/2010/03/katrina-to-birthright-to-gaza-a-young-jews-progress.html |

" Others asked me if I still could even consider myself a Jew and told me that I was a disgrace to my religion, my "people". Zionism (Jewish nationalism) has reared its ugly head in ways and in people I never thought imaginable. To question Israel is to be anti-Semitic and anti-Jewish. Apparently, to simply be Jewish, regardless of one’s religious tilt, was to be Zionist. I guess I missed the memo.

Morgan Elzey By you quoting Jews who disagree with Israel actually proves Zilch,and definitely NOT the points you and some others are trying to make! |

Israel does not have an opinion. It is not alive or conscious. People, including JEWS can DISAGREE with Rothschilds Zionist agenda. |

Although not a priori anti-Semitic, the calls to dismantle the Jewish state, whether they come from Muslims, the Left, or the radical Right, increasingly rely on an anti-Semitic stereotypization of classic themes, such as the manipulative "Jewish lobby," the Jewish/Zionist "world conspiracy," and Jewish/Israeli "warmongers."

The common denominator of the new anti-Zionism has been the systematic effort to criminalize Israeli and Jewish behavior, so as to place it beyond the pale of civilized and acceptable conduct. |
