        Agreed. It’s also frustrating that the labeling of anything anti-Zionist as anti-Semitism just gives actual anti-Semites the opportunity to claim their actual anti-Semitism is anything but.

        I will never fault someone for standing up for their people. In fact, one has to admire the fact that this person put their money (and reputation) where their mouth is. We strongly disagree on the matter, but antisemitism has nothing to do with it.

        A question, for me, is where is the same pressure from other players? Where are the mega rich Arabs and Muslims pulling their funding because somebody didn’t put out a pro-Palestine message. Step up!

          • Arabs think of palestians as white trash cousins you don’t want at your wedding…

            I have no idea if this is true or not but it seems like a gross generalization.

            Also, US keeping them on a short lease with arms sales

            Irrelevant. I’m talking about individuals not governments.

            • Arab peoples and states behaviors speak for themselves.

              Fact that most most of the aid for Gaza came from the west, should be indication enough about how other Arabs feel about this issue…

              They are fine with palestiains suffering as along as Israel keep getting rockets.
