Anti-Zionism is just Anti-Semitism misspelled. The Anti-Zionist left continues to remind us of that.
Haaretz is a crazed anti-Israel paper operating out of Israel even though a number of its high profile writers have publicly announced that they refuse to live in the country. It's also the voice of Israel's left-wing establishment. A voice that is growing crazier and crazier by the minute.
Obama however is a phone. Addressing the last HaaretzQ conference, at which the Israeli flag had to be taken down, he said, "As Israel's oldest newspaper, Haaretz has never been afraid to speak truth to power. Over the years, I've turned to you as well for your reporting and analysis."
This is the kind of deranged anti-Israel hate that Obama has "turned to" for understanding Israel.
After the last election, Haaretz's Gideon Levy, who really hates Israel demanded "The nation must be replaced. Not another election for the country’s leadership, but general elections to choose a new Israeli people – immediately."
He has justified Muslim terror attacks against Israelis. Gideon Levy demanded, "Did Israel Really Think Hamas Would Turn the Other Cheek". Levy pushes BDS and calls for the destruction of Israel via a "one state solution".
But then there's Amira Hass, who justifies Muslim violence against Jews and tried to live in Gaza. She claimed that Jews moving to Israel are committing a crime, calls Israel an "apartheid state" and called Gaza a "concentration camp". She claimed that throwing stones at Jews is, "a metaphor for resistance.” Hass is the official Haaretz correspondent.
In Haaretz's race to the bottom, Amira Hass decided to invoke the Elders of Zion just to remind everyone once again that the left is anti-Semitic and that it's opposition to Israel is based entirely on its hatred of Jews.
"Amira Hass said was that what we see today is the result of deliberate planning by a hidden group of Jews called the ‘Elders of Zion’. It was all planned. In a liberal democracy that bends to the will of the elected government, the idea of hidden plans and puppet masters is the stuff of conspiracy theorists. This is a conspiracy about Jews and secret plans for domination. You can listen to the comment itself here:"
Here's the direct quote from Hass, whose last name appropriately enough means hate.
"Did the Elders of Zion really sit together at the beginning of the seventies and then during the nineties and planned, and have all these military decrees, military orders and changes? Viewing this tremendous change, I believe that they were."
And this is Obama's source for analysis and reporting on Israel. If a Republican candidate had named a source synonymous with crazed bigotry as a source for understanding Israel, there would have been outrage. But Obama gets a pass for viewing Amira Hass and Gideon Levy as legitimate sources for understanding what is going on in Israel.
