Those of you who follow Israel Thrives will recall that I recently had something of a dispute with pro-Israel "progressives" on Jon Haber's DivestThis! blog.
There are some Jews on the progressive-left who simply refuse to acknowledge that which is before their very eyes, i.e., that BDS / anti-Zionism is a toxic political sub-movement coming out of the left. It is not coming out of the right, nor does it somehow float above normal politics.
No.
It is primarily a left-wing phenomenon and we need to acknowledge that because it could not be more obvious. We must stop playing ostrich.
In any case, I have responded to Jon Haber's piece, "Israel Left and Right" at my new Times of Israel blog, here:
"Anti-Zionism and the Left: A Response to Jon Haber"
Feel free to drop in and tell me why I am wrong.
