1Matthew Yglesias » What?s Driving the Jihad Against J Street 1 Citation Meanwhile, neither American public opinion in general nor American Jewish public opinion in particular has become more hawkish or right-wing over the past five years. Quite the reverse. Obviously, this is going to be a problem for any group that wants to both be seen as ?speaking for? American Jews and also aligned with the policy agenda of the Israeli government., delicious.com

TAPPED Archive | The American Prospect 1 Citation We remember once a year that we were once slaves, but black people are reminded we were slaves every time we see a box of rice or maple syrup. Jews were slaves thousands of years ago -- on my mother's side, we were slaves a mere 160 years ago. For Jews, America was the place we fled to, for black folks, America was Egypt., delicious.com

jonathanfreedland.com- Articles: The danger of Melanie Phillips 1 Citation Of course, it is mad to blame one person for shaping this distorted world view. But when asked where they had picked up this apocalyptic impression of the state of British Jewry, the Americans apparently cited one name again and again. Melanie will doubtless be heartened by that ? but it might not be so good for the rest of us., delicious.com

abyssinia4077: Self Identity and Racial Masks 1 Citation ultimately, I have white privilege. I don't have store owners look suspiciously at me or people on the street make assumptions about me. I don't have to worry about racial bias at job interviews or all the hundreds of other ways people of color are discriminated everyday because they are instantly identifiable as not white.
But. I'm a member of an ethnic minority which has only recently become white, and a minority labeled with plenty of (often non-flattering) stereotypes. In America (I can't speak as knowledgeably to experience in other countries) Jews only started becoming white after WWII., delicious.com

1 Citation This calls out for an explanation. I think we can ignore antisemitic stupidities about Jews and money or conspiracies to control the world?s wealth. There isn?t an obvious political angle either, since Jewish or half-Jewish economists come in all stripes, from Hayek and Friedman to at least two of the contributors to this blog and, of course, Marx himself., delicious.com

Matthew Yglesias » The Changing Politics of Israel 1 Citation I think this is all correct, as are the things Meyerson says about J Street and everything Henrick Hertzberg says here. But I do think there?s one other dynamic that often gets missed here, namely the extent to which the mainstream ?pro-Israel? organizations in the United States found themselves becoming more ideological?and more fundamentally right-wing?in recent years., delicious.com
