Somewhere in Western newsrooms and political backrooms, there must be an instruction manual or playbook entitled “How to make accusations of antisemitism with hardly any facts.” I imagine that Steve Paikin got hold of it and employed it to write his latest column. I am afraid that the piece is seriously lacking in intellectual honesty.
Perhaps you should actually read my initial comment. Or is that too difficult for you?
Your initial comment doesn’t say anything relevant to your thesis. Simply typing words isn’t an argument, and plenty of criticism of Isreal remain perfectly legitimate, and bombing children, even if you contort yourself into pretending that’s self-defense, remains wrong.
My initial comment describes all the things anti-Israel protesters are doing that aren’t “criticism of Israel.” That’s the point. They’re not criticizing Israel, they’re calling for its destruction.
