What i mean is that the left will support moore, nadir, chumpsky, palestinian terrorists, moveon.org etc and ignore their anti semitism because of their aims and goals.. They did that with stalin as well. The nazis and fascists didnt get this free pass. So there is a distinction being made based on motives on whether something said or someone is anti semetic or not. If Hitler used suicide bomb tactics, it would never be called a war of liberation. When Buchanan railed against the "amen corner" the left happily took him on. But when virtually the same words are uttered by moveon.org, they get a free pass. WHY?

And I'm certain someone who knows the history of anti-semitism well could make the case that it is no respector of the French Revolution right/left distinctions.

It is no respecter of political position, that's for sure. I posted an article yesterday by a Frenchwomen who makes a very good case that the French government made a deliberate decision in the 70's to side with the Arabs. They are now reaping the results of that effort.
