people need to keep calling foxman...here here ron!<br /><br />people need to keep calling foxman out for his bullshit. you are right it is time for him to go (along with much of the ADL top leadership)<br /><br />I am not going to deny that the man is a giant in the field and has done much during a long career watching America change (mostly for the better concerning perception of Jews), but the mosque decision was a serious mistake and worse, a bow to the right wing funders and crazies that are instrumental to keeping groups like aipac going. If the ADL was once a prime choice for a leader of the jewish left, they have given it up by choosing to chase shadows of the past rather than engaging with the battles of our time. <br /><br />I have never seen the ADL take a stand on immigration, despite the constant and unrelenting movement towards creating a demonized underclass with no rights in this country, much like the Jews of the Soviet Union. But Roger WAters plays an image for 3 seconds of a 2 hour show, and the full power of the ADL press machine and millions strong mail list goes into full effect? fuck that.<br /><br />I hope that this dust up will at least get some people to reconsider their donation and hopefully shake the cobwebs from the ADL. they are way too powerful and well funded to stay on the sidelines for the next 20 years.<br /><br />alan<br /><br />http://subdividemedia.com/campaigns<br />www.coloradoimmigrant.orgAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10103709075556345727noreply@blogger.com
