Taro, I guess I got my grammar mixed up. Let me restate. "Zionism" is the euphemistic label used by the modern-day anti-Semitist movement to justify their conspiracy theories. Tenchusatsu

" We all know Emile is on a crusade against Zionism but that per se does not mean that he is on a crusade against anti-semitism." I am, in fact, opposed to anti-Semitism when you define anti-Semitism as the crude racial hatred of Jews because of their ethnicity. If there is such a thing as an ethnic Jew, then I strongly believe that they have the same human rights and human dignity as all men--no more, no less! But the case for an ethnic Jew is very weak when we look at the brood spectrum that comprises modern Jews. There are black Ethiopian Jews, there are dark kinky haired Sephardic Jews, there are blond European looking Jews, etc. etc. Krober and Ashley Montague, two world renowned Jewish Anthropologists, showed conclusively that modern Judaism is a religion/political ideology rather than a race. So, anti-Semitism is really a misnomer when applied to modern Jews because most modern Jews are not Semites. On the other hand, Palestinians are clearly semitic and the term anti-Semitism is more appropriately applied to anti-Palestinian racism than to anti-Judaism.
