J Street Tries to Distance Itself From Board Member’s Hamas Flirtation

The left-wing lobby group J Street has a problem. On the one hand, their leadership has been trying hard to portray itself as just another liberal pro-Israel Jewish group that deserves a place at the communal table. On the other, the radical instincts of much of its leadership and many of its supporters are so alienated from mainstream Jewish opinion about Israel and the Middle East conflict, the organization often finds itself lurching about trying to square two points of view that are incompatible. J Street first condemned Israel’s counter-offensive against Hamas terror in December 2008

I’m sure that Peratis would have liked a tour of Berchtesgarten during WW2, or maybe even of the work camp of Auschwitz.
