Why are Jewish left-wing groups barred from marching with ANSWER? What is ANSWER's real agenda?

The new Judenrein antiwar movement
The most prominent progressive Jewish organizations were absent at last week's antiwar protests, for a simple reason: no matter how left-wing you are, if you believe Israel has a right to exist as the homeland of the Jewish people, you aren't invited to speak.

The list of endorsing organizations for Saturday’s march is full of Arab and Muslim groups, but there are no Jewish organizations listed. The Shalom Center in Philadelphia, a Jewish Renewal outpost, will participate in a Friday night Tu B’Shvat service and seder [that was January 17th] and a “nonviolent civil disobedience action against the war near the White House” on Sunday. But the group will not have an official presence at the rally — in part because of concerns about the anti-Israel themes.
