  1. Re: U Penn BDS leader: We need to demonize Israel at every single opportunity

    I'm an Penn alum and remain proud of it despite the presence of useful idiots such as Kaplan and a few others (Max Blumenthal and, gasp, Noam Chomsky are also Penn alums). However, a school with as...
  2. Re: Quebec TV Host Says Israel Doesn’t Deserve to Exist

    Speaking as one who was born and raised in Quebec, the greatest irony to me is that it seems to me to be logically inconsistent to be a Quebec nationalist and anti-Israel at the same time,...
  3. Re: Occupy Wall St; of course there's going to be some antisemitism

    The quote above is, IMHO, a neat encapsulation of what many recognise as "the New anti-Semitism", i.e., the type so common on the left. It isn't primarily racial, as was the right wing versions of...
  4. Re: Council of Europe makes "Palestine" a Partner of Europe. Israel is silent

    Who would ever take someone named "Tiny Kox" seriously? :p

    Re: StandWithUs flotilla fact sheet website

    Palestinian:

    Can you link your source for those stats? A google search yields only an identical post on Twitter for me. The numbers regarding PTSD are unrealistically high, in particular.

  6. Re: The Globe and Mail, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hamas, LLC

    I'm a reader of the Globe and Mail. FWIW, this series doesn't imply support for Hamas. Furthermore, the Globe's editorial board has been consistently strongly pro-Israel, including defense of...

    Gotta love Raw Story. Hard to imagine that they can fool anyone with that sort of piece---I would have expected them to at least try to make this propaganda bullshit believable.... So, unnamed AIPAC...

    Re: Academic Freedom to Hate

    Sort of sad that I've become familiar with Alam's garbage writings only recently. I have an uncle who was a major donor to Northeastern University. There is a large space at the university named...

    Re: Massive Show of Support for Israel

    Sounds to me as though he's being darkly humourous in paraphrasing the Iranian govt's repeated threats towards Israel and Jews (er, Zionists)

    Re: Mommy drinks because you're bad

    I know it's a waste of time, but I needed to vent, so I wrote an e-mail to this dipshit. I'm continually sickened by the moral vacousness of the far left strain in academia.

    Re: Finally, Israel strikes Gaza!

    Hard to know, though surely Hamas will inflate the numbers for their own propaganda. That being said, the death of any child, including the 2 Palestinian children killed by Hamas' misfired rocket...

    The alternate and perhaps more accurate term, Judeophobia, is gaining acceptance and could replace "anti-Semitism".

    I saw Prof. Rosenfeld speak this evening at my synagogue and had the opportunity to ask him a few questions. He doesn't paint a pretty picture. More of us need to be willing to risk public scorn and...
