Probably.
These days you have to take what you can get…
I was wondering about a post on this but I think it speaks loudly for itself.
It is a classic. What better proof that the Guardian is rotting from the core.

” What better proof that the Guardian is rotting from the core. ”
The word of a right wing troll? You simpleton ..look at his language …demonising???? making out the palestinians are innocent etc etc this is a Israeli narrative troll post are you really so dim as to not see it|?

Better proof? What about their tolerance of posters like Berchmans with his sexual obsessions to murdered Jewish girls?

People should be aloud to talk about the pro-Israel lobby etc. without being labelled an anti-Semite.
Presumably The alchemist disagrees with this “dude” bloke over the above and the latter’s use of the word “traitors”. Automatically labelling the man as a Jew hater is IMO ridiculous.
Have you really digested the rest of his post? Especially the conclusion.

This is so unfair. I have already apologised for calling you an “occasional pervert” I will do so again unambiguously…you are not an” occasional ” pervert.

Berchmans
Am I a pervert? Did I express my desire to give a blast to a murdered Jewish child? Or was it you?
But I accept your arguments, in your perverted upside down world I’m a pervert, Islam is “gentle” and peaceful, Israel is an apartheid state etc. etc.

Hi Guys,
Two new blog posts on Israel and the flotilla fresh off the presses. Read and pass them on:
One for any opinion:
Think you might be an Israel supporter? http://bit.ly/9srn6d
Believe that Israel should be ashamed of itself? http://bit.ly/cCp1PA

“People should be aloud to talk about the pro-Israel lobby etc. without being labelled an anti-Semite.”
Sure, but he went deeper than that.
“infiltrating.. making America do its bidding…media…traitors…etc…”
This is typical American antisemitism. Not the virulent KKK/NOI style for sure.
Feels still relatively warm and fuzzy compared to Euro antisemitism and most certainly loving compared to Muslim antisemitism. Cif’s got them all, a mix of flavors like Philippine food I guess.

“, Israel is an apartheid state etc. etc.”
I have never used this expression and I wince when pro Palestinians use it as it is always about creating heat rather than light. You are mistaking me for someone who needs to use the words of others all the time to express themselves.
You are striking out my valiant pal…next time you try to pick on a pro Palestinian try to find an easier mark…you know ….a non clever one…good luck at that by the way.

peterthehungarian,
Don’t even bother.
It is not worth while engaging with Heres to Davy/abandon hope/Berchamns.
He wouldn’t recognise antisemitism if it fell on him from the sky.
His contributions here are either to sneer, make pathetic jokes, pander to his own ego or to dismiss examples of antisemitism and racism against Jews with that very patronising attitude that only the British can manage.
Heres to Davy/abandon hope/Berchamns is best ignored.

This is quite an effective post actually..not very effective ..you would have to be the product of an excellent education system for that…but quite effective!

back-handed compliment indeed.
But it probably shows you that at least this right-wing anti-semite can take a step back and and construct a coherent picture of the left-wings anti-Israel obsession.

@ The Alchemist
If the poster had made any indication that he was talking about Jews in general when saying “infiltrating.. making America do its bidding…media…traitors…etc…” then I’d certainly agree with you.
But he doesn’t. The pro-Israel lobby in the US does exert a certain influence – is it anti-Semitic to point that out?
Saying this “is typical American antisemitism” is jumping to conclusions.
Why have you and others here overlooked his sarcastic mocking of British Israel critics and their talk of “horrible bloodthirsty Israelis”???

We haven’t. That was the reason for posting his post.

A myth. The USA’s pro-Israeli stance is due to the pro-Israeli opinions of the American electorate. In fact, Israel’s ratings with the American public are far higher than Obama’s (or, indeed, of most Presidents).
is it anti-Semitic to point that out?
Yes.
