The lack of comments is not surprising. This is a case of "dog bites man" -- nobody expects any different. Which yet again demonstrates the truth that modern antisemitism is cloaked in the double standard of no expectations from the Arabs and impossible expectations from the Jews.

Israel is still the only country regularly found in "violation of human rights" by the UN "improved" Human Rights Council. Don't expect to see Iran, or China, or Russia, or Saudi Arabia, or Egypt, or even Sudan, being condemned there. Who cares that a blogger was imprisoned in Egypt for insulting Mubarak?

You are absolutely correct in your analysis.

Well said. Your point gets lost in all the hoopla about how criticism of Israel isn't anti-semitic, which in and of itself is a true statement. Why people fail to see the anti-semitism is precisely because they fail to see the context of what you just said.

It would not be anti-semitic to criticize Israel if it were factually based AND if there were equally factually based criticism of the other middle east countries.
