Isn't it sad today when Jewish critics write about Israel, the content of their concerns are dismissed, apriori, and answered by by an endless spew of personal attacks on their character.
When
it comes to this issue, only one correct party line, pro-Netanyahu position masquerading
as support for country that is always facing threats, especially when funds are
to be raised.
If you think the Stalinists kowtowed to a party line, check out the Zionists. There used to be disputes between many Labor Zionist groups with each other while the Settlers had their own differences and fanatics.
Now, there is no tolerance for anyone you disagree with. There is little difference been some of the religious autocrats there and the mullahs in Iran. Tehran has its Supreme Ruler, above the political process, and Israel its "Security Cabinet!" Who there cares about democracy?
Only one line is allowed--or else. Figure out why l00 members of the 100 member U.S. Senate groveled before embracing Israel in the same resolution, and you will understand the way this game is played.
Dissent, however mild or reasonable, is not permitted. It's always their way or the highway! We are supposed to hail AIPAC the way the Romans hailed Caesar.
Disagree, and quickly, life-long semites become anti-Semites, and people who love justice are blasted as haters, guilty for even invoking the names of people of deep knowledge like that son of a Rabbi, Noam Chomsky, a moral conscience and national treasure, now in his 80's.
Chomsky, oy vey, has heard it all from all sides, but keeps going!
May we all sing, "bidi-bidi-bum?"
