And what do you make of anti-Zionist Jews such as French intellectual Guy Sorman? The latter once blurted on a TV talkshow that Israel was as transient a geopolitical construct as the ill-fated Kingdom of Jerusalem of yore (under the Crusaders' rule)... Sorman quickly added --in a clumsy attempt to placate his Jewish audience (Franz-Olivier Giesbert, Pierre Benichou, and Alain Minc(*)-- that most of his kin live in Israel. You can't brand Sorman an anti-Semite --he is a Semite! I guess you categorize him as a "self-hating Jew"?

Coining Israel as a transient, geopolitical construct is hardly anti-Semitism. In fact, he may well be right. Suspecting a Jew, however, behind nearly every bad event in the Western world can easily be seen as a form of anti-Semitism.
