re: #22 blueraven

I cant speak for SFZ but I believe there is an issue with the fact that the antisemitism at OWS seems to be blamed on the Israeli Lobby, instead of taking some accountability and being more forceful in stamping it out.

If you’re referring to my article (versus the OccupyLA article which linked to mine), it doesn’t actually speak to “antisemitism at OWS”, but rather those who have lied about it. If one wishes to make the case of “antisemitism at OWS”, using the cases of 2 folks — one of whom is mentally unbalanced, another who is a long time anti-Semitic protester, neither of whom actually have anything to do with OWS complaints or oganization, while pointing to Ds who’ve said the same exact thing about OWS that high-ranking Rs have (without showing the Rs), and then using that to calim the Ds are anti-Semites is preposterous, disingenuous, and a disservice to real supporters of Israel.

This would be like the tea party blaming the racism at their events on the NAACP (which of course they have tried to do)

That analogy, unfortunately, makes absolutely no sense, as I can’t even figure out how that is supposed to apply. You are suggesting that I am “blaming anti-Semitism at OWS events on the Israel Lobby”??? Where is that even hinted at in my piece???
