Haaretz changed its headline this morning but the opening paragraph is still sitting there:
Estee Chandler, who heads anti-Israel organization, found a poster of her picture, her workplace, other personal details and names of her relatives [on the front porch] at her West coast home.
The poster charged her with using “her own presumed Jewishness as a weapon against the Jewish People and the Jewish State of Israel while conspiring with other well-known anti-Israel groups to assist in Israel’s destruction and to otherwise engender hatred and incite further violence against the Jewish People and the Jewish State of Israel.”
Chandler responds:
“I was forewarned about extremists when I first decided to start a Jewish Voice for Peace chapter here in my hometown of Los Angeles. I went into it with my eyes open. While I didn’t think anything would happen this soon, I can’t say it wasn’t something I didn’t anticipate. Ultimately I think these people really are cowards, and not really to be feared. We are the silent majority of American Jews and it’s time for us to stop being silent. If we raise our voices a fraction of the level of these people- we will become the message, too many people who are with us are afraid. Ultimately nonviolence is the only thing that has ever won out.”
For background I suggest reading Yossi Gurvitz’s Nobody mentions the Jewish Brotherhood over @ 972.
