Playboy Magazine Goes Anti-Semitic

Jews and non-Jews who can easily tell foreigners that being American is not the same as supporting the American government are incapable of making the same argument in Israel’s case. Elected officials won’t say anything because of the political cost or at least the perceived threat from Jewish voters. And there is residue from the Cold War, when Israel was seen as the region’s bulwark against the Soviet Union. Among Jews there is a reflexive “Israel right or wrong” attitude that is deeply rooted in the memory of the Holocaust. My own family lost people in the Holocaust. But the Holocaust should not be used as a moral shield to suppress honest criticism of Israel.

"Strange. The CAMERA article that Mr. Sabbah claims brands Playboy as anti-Semitic actually doesn’t say such a thing. In fact, it says just the opposite on it’s homepage! “Jonathan Tasini’s comments on Israel are not anti-Semitic. They’re just wrong.” It’s possible that some people don’t know the difference between anti-Semitism and legitimate criticism of Israel… but unfortunately others can’t seem to tell the difference between those call Israel’s critics anti-Semites and those who simply disagree with those critics."

You never cease to amaze me with clever charades for your anti-Semitism.
