contemporary anti-Semitism has added the Jewish state to its list of targets

Yep, and there's not an insignificant number of "I'm anti-Israel but not anti-semitic" creeps right here on FR. Thankfully, few of us buy that bald-faced lie.

There's very few (if any)people on FR who are truly "anti Israel", let alone anti-semetic. There's a few of us who object to certain Israeli actions, particularly in the West Bank and Gaza, who get called both of those things by those who support those actions and would indeed do a lot more.

The irony is that the Bush administration supports us, not them.

One can be anti-Israel withought being anti-Semetic, in certain circumstances, but they tend to walk a fine line.

. . . Who would have believed that the Israel Defense Forces would fire flechette shells at a soccer field where children were playing, wounding nine people, including two children, without anyone protesting? . . .

I expect that when I tell you that I AM NOT anti Israel my statement will be met with ridicule - perhaps even abuse - or perhaps not responded to at all - ignored - silenced by silence. . . .

but what th' hell . . . I am NOT anti-Israel.

The "war on terrorism" (prior to 9/11, the Middle East conflict) is not advanced but, rather, is prolonged and guaranteed another incarnation by Israel's use, for instance, of flechette shells . Israel is not helping my country OR MY PRESIDENT by such insane behavior.
