How interesting that the equation Zionism is racism, such a bloody bone of contention at the U.N.,is now cropping up in the work of Jewish anti-Zionists. 2 examples I've seen in the last month:
–Avigail Abarbanel, a psychotherapist born in Israel, living in Australia, writes on electronic intifadah that Zionism is a "fear-based, racist and
immoral ideology."
—Writer Joel Kovel, quoted in the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs: “Is Zionism racism?” Kovel asked his audience, answering, “Is the Pope Catholic?”
I know, that's just two examples. In Journalism 101, we learned that "a trend" requires 3 examples. And no, I'm not going to be the third. (Don't know enough about it to make such a damning statement.)
By the way, Kovel is "dialogue"-ing with Morton Klein of ZOA, the dual loyalty enthusiasts, "on the Israel/Palestine Dilemma," at Community Church in N.Y., on June 8, 1-3 pm. Ought to be a barnburner. I hope this is genuine? Yes here is the link. Wow, this is something– that Morton Klein is sharing a stage with Kovel. It is a sign of the left's growing power. Klein knows he needs to address us. And four days later, according to their new mouthpiece, Walt and Mearsheimer are going to be at Hebrew University. Some day these guys are going to be on "60 Minutes."
