news report
Tuesday February 18, 2003 18:34 by Daithi
The very public dispute between left-wing rabbi Michael Lerner from "Tikkun" (a progressive Jewish community in SF) and anti-war organisers from A.N.S.W.E.R. (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism - associated with the Workers World party) continued right up to Saturday's day of action. Read the links if you are interested; in short, Lerner, a long-time anti-war activist and critic of Israel wanted to speak at a Feb 15th rally, but claims that he was prevented from doing so; ANSWER's response is that he publicily criticised ANSWER in the media and thus violated a prior agreement. His criticism was that ANSWER was linking the Iraq issue to an extreme anti-Israel position. http://www.internationalanswer.org/news/update/021103lerner.html |

Jump To Comment: 4 3 2 1Michael Lerner is "not" a zionist in exactly the same way that David Duke is "not" a nazi.
BTW: That's sarcasm, people.
lerner is not a zionist!!!!! read his site. tikkun is always being bashed by zionists as being traitors and turncoats.
Counterpunch has a good summary of the whole affair in the link at the bottom of this post. There's no way this was based on anti-Semitism, it was clearly that Lerner had attacked ANSWER and the coalition ha d an agreement that those that attacked coalition members publically wouldn't be invited. Their protest, their right.
There's also an interesting call for support for Lerner from Chuck of Infoshop fame. I think his dislike of ANSWER (which is reasonable) has got the better of him.
No one would object - nor should they - if klansmen, nazis or other scum (even "liberal" ones like David Duke) get excluded from making presentations at antiwar rallies. S
So why should zionists (and - sigh - by zionists I really MEAN zionists, not Jews) get to do so?
Zionist criminality is now so evident that anyone who supports the existence of a "state" of "Israel" should hang his or her head in shame.
While nazis and the klan TALK about killing and bombing (and occasionally actually do so) the zionist track record speaks for itself.
