Yes, very much so. Here's what I wrote over there: "The distinction I meant to draw was between the many Israeli policies supported by 'liberal' Zionists which clearly, right on paper, discriminate on a racial basis, and those in Western countries, which do not. I think there's a meaningful difference, for example, between American redlining and Israeli land covenants, which restrict the use of 93% of its territory on an explicitly racial basis." ... To cite one example. Here's a database of racist laws, with varying degrees of explicitness: http://adalah.org/eng/Israeli-Discriminatory-Law-Database -- "Hige sceal þe heardra, heorte þe cenre, mod sceal þe mare, þe ure mægen lytlað." ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: Marxism@lists.csbs.utah.edu Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
