The great Joel Beinin at MERIP offers a startling conclusion from the groundbreaking showing of Rachel at the San Francisco Jewish Film Festival: "More and more American Jews find themselves attracted to the moral commitment that animates Rachel, and left cold by the tactics of pressure groups that spend so much money to shut down debate over Israel and its occupation policies. And that is why the pressure groups are beginning to fail."

" ...the pressure groups are beginning to <span style="color: #a9501b;">fail</span>." I hope that this is so, but is there any firm evidence?

ReplyDelete<span>Seriosly now...With a comment like this ( Jews rock!!!!!!! Jews are awesome people. Especially American Jews!), you are clealy insulting our intellingence! We deserve better!</span>
No TGIA, I am freely sharing my view of the Jews I have met and known. This is entirely authentic and without sarcasm. I really like the Jews I have met. I really admire them. I love the Jewish faith, and Jewish culture and traditions (to the extent I have been exposed to it.)
ReplyDeleteI suspect TGIA, that you have similar experiences with the Jews that you have met.
Yeah he had a good ol' time in Lebanon anand you putz
ReplyDeleteDope, TGIA has lived in France and Australia. Both countries have many Jewish citizens. Some 800,000 Jews live in France.

I'm not in favour of banning people, but I wish something could be done about racist remarks, even those uttered by someone suffering from infantilism.
ReplyDeleteSorry about that TGIA. I think that you probably like both Jews and Palestinians. You also want Israeli policies changed in ways that help Palestinians. This is what I was implying.
ReplyDeleteListen you little dirty ass idiot (anand), you spew so much horse shit that it must exude from all of your pores. Do you just lie in wait to say some nonfactual asinine tripe, historical quackery, or is that your stock in trade? I do not appreciate your support for anyone, support by you is an immediate insult. You are a carcinogenic creep that needs to keep his ignorant mouth shut - and by the way, you don't know shit about economics or how it is used as a weapon nor the wiles of statecraft. That is when it gets really annoying with your "free market," and "go this and go that" baby like prattle, there has got to be a mental indigent site just for people like you, make it your mission in life to find it.
