Why make the forum name a question? You know the conclusion.

Plus, it's sponsored by a group that devotes most of its own web page to anti-Israel "statistics" and the promotion of anti-Israel and anti-Semitic "scholars."

Not anti-Semitic

By Ron Newman on Sat, 07/30/2005 - 10:45pm.

1) Barney Frank is Jewish
2) Democracy for America is the former Dean for America group, which had and has many Jewish members

Who said Frank was anti-Semitic? Not me.

Ron,

I did not accuse Barney Frank of being anti-Semitic. I said Edward Said and Paul Findley were, respectively, anti-Israel and anti-Semitic. Brookline Peaceworks promotes their work, and it's sponsoring the forum.

My point was: why is Frank associating with such a group?

I don't know about Democracy for America, but I know about Brookline Peaceworks, a group that hates Israel and spreads insane palestinian propaganda.

Propaganda

Well, someone's gotta spread the "palestinian propaganda" to finally balance out the pro-Israeli propaganda that went unquestioned for decades.

Ideological Quagmires

Ha! That's funny.

You have a good sense of humor. Five million people, backs to the sea, vastly outnumbered and surrounded by sworn enemies whose first principles include their utter destruction, victims of thousands of years of repression and genocide, draw some lines in the sand for their own defense. When that's reported as occupation, equated with terrorism, and consistently condemned by the Jew-hating U.N. -which, by the way has never condemned anti-Israel aggression- all of which is reported as their fault, that's not pro-Israeli propaganda.

All the monarchies, oligarchies, and repressive theocracies of the middle-east want to destroy the only democracy there, which just happens to be where all the Jews live. The palestinians are a tool of the surrounding nations, pawns to justify and commit violence with one end in mind: the end of the Jews.

That's what it really comes down to: the end of the Jews.

All I gotta say is...

My propaganda can beat up your propaganda!
