What needs to be rooted out is the conviction among Israel-defenders that criticism of Israel equals anti-Semitism. To quote the article at your beloved OpinionJournal which you gave a link to: "Let's stipulate that it should be possible to criticize Israel without being tarred as anti-Semitic, just as any European or American Jew should be able to praise the Jewish state without being accused of dual loyalty. To make either charge admits to having run out of ideas." As for my alleged bias and equally alleged anti-Semitism: I have pointed out numerous times that you are wrong on this, but since you refuse to listen anyway I am not going to dignify it with any further response.
