Amazing! And this, apparently, was too much for ANSWER. In truth, it's no surprise that ANSWER has dealt this way with Lerner; it's a neo-Stalinist group (it supported, inter alia, the Chinese crackdown at Tiananmen Square in 1989) which Reuters quaintly describes as a "coalition of anti-war groups." More significant, as Lerner points out, is that other anti-war groups acquiesced in his blackballing. "Fellow progressive Jews," he writes, "some anxious to speak at these rallies, have urged me to keep quiet about anti-Semitism on the Left. After all, they say, stopping the war against Iraq is so much more important."
