Unbelieveable...I can't believe this author can right such things.
Shameful.

1. Neither is to blame
Israel and Palestine are both GUILTY of their own demise it seems. Palestine keeps blowing up innocent women and children in suicide bombings...while Israel retaliates and goes overboard killing scores of bystanders just to kill 1 person in a pinto. Unfortunately I see no end to the violence unless they just separate the two countries into Palestine and Israel. Just give Palestine their own state that way if any more violence opens up then it is clear who is perpetrating it.

2. Frontpage is sad.
More propaganda, this time intended to make colleges and universities even more staid and conservative. Must teach the young people the propaganda that keeps the powerful powerful and the rich rich.

3. Really...
"“I want you to die for Israel,” said the sign of one man in an Uncle Sam costume; on his lapel was an Israeli flag, the Star of David replaced with a swastika. The American left is already all too willing to excuse Jew-hatred, as long it’s hidden behind a cloak of ‘anti-Zionism.’ How long before they start excusing violence against the Jews, hidden behind a cloak of ‘anti-Zionist direct action’? Americans can’t afford to wait and find out. Anti-Semitism, like other forms of bigotry, have largely been defeated in America; we can’t let it sneak back in through the back door, carried by the very ‘progressives’ who used to fight it. The bigots who attempt to link the abolition of Israel to other, left-wing causes must be exposed and condemned at every turn. "


well said....

NEVER AGAIN !!

5. Suddenly it's right-wingish to oppose anti-semitism
Thank you for the "progressive" analysis.

6. No!

I didn't say that. I was talking about the source. And I am sure that neocon and rw media are a bastion of tolerance, humanity and compassion that is true to their heart and doesn't have anything to do with them hating another group of people, does it?

8. But...
Isn't that off the point?

Of course, the source is suspect.

Does that make the content any less true in all cases?

In this case, the content is true.

9. Well
A lot of what Mahatir said was also very true,albeit for the anti-semitic remarks. But that still doesn't mean that I agree with his views. I am sure some are happy to read what FrontpageMag says about Muslims and backs Israel, but then they seem to forget that they have general contempt for Muslims (Palestinians and Arabs especially) and it isn't like the words are coming from some tolerant, "fair and balanced" source that is reknown for their sheer humanity and progressive ideas.

One can see through the hypocrisy and double standards of such profound RW sources and their anti-Arab agenda, but many seem to happily accept anything as long as it goes against Palestinians or any others they don't particularly like.

Hey David Duke might say that Sharon is a war criminal and he might be right about that, but that doesn't mean I am going to quote him or consider his views and statements as credible and worth putting here. You get the picture...

7. let's be accurate...
one paragraph in the article is being cited as being well said, the site itself was not being praised and the article from the site was posted by somebody else, possibly as flame bait...
