Ya think?
When you have to state the difference between antisemitism and anti-Zionism, you know there's a serious problem with the conversation.
In recent weeks Israeli nationalists have repeatedly taken their cues from the former head of the thuggish and racist Jewish Defence League (JDL). The Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA), B’nai Brith, Honest Reporting Canada and Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center have all supported long-time JDL head Meir Weinstein’s harassment of anti-genocide protesters.
I knew the B'nai Brith and JDL would be involved in that kind of stuff. They're the biggest zionist organizations in Canada and B'nai Brith has a huge influence in Canadian politics. Politicians are so scared to piss them off and being labeled as antisemite that they'll basically do anything to keep them calm, including supporting Israel's genocide and their theocratic fascist government.
