"Anti-Zionism is just the latest form of Jew hating, and I don't allow it here." If I understand this correctly, Zionism is the political movement that controls Israel today. The government of Israel is officially Zionist. Googling on the internet, I found a number of Jews and Rabbi organizations that oppose "Zionism". So you consider everyone, including these Jews, who opposes or criticizes the policies and actions of the Israeli government as anti-Semitic and you will not permit any discussion questioning these policies? I guess my next question should be: are you an American or an Israeli? I find this kind of thinking anti-American and anti-democracy. Do you apply this principle to other nations and peoples? Can we criticize Communism of China without being anti-Chinese? Can we criticize the Islam of Iran without being anti-Arabic? Can we criticize the "Christian" Anglicanism of England without being anti-Anglo? I guess this little isolated corner of the universe is reserved only for Zionist and fellow travelers. I'm new to SI, but I haven't found this kind of close mindedness on other threads I've read. In fact, I've never even experienced this kind of close mindedness anywhere in America.
