Great letter man. Your observations and experience aren’t unique. I’ve been called an anti-semite here for admiring Gandhi and for asking questions to inform myself.

It’s also been insinuated, by some, that any criticism of Israeli policies, actions or statements makes one an anti-semite. It has further been insinuated that suggesting any level of Israeli responsibility for the negative aspects of the Israel/Palestine situation makes one an anti-semite.

I disagree and further suggest that the above attitude completely chokes off any avenue of conversation on the subject. With regard to the very, very many lizards who do NOT engage in this type of behavior I sincerely thank you for fostering a fertile environment for discussion.
