The new "anti-semitism"

I'm sure you've guessed what this is about already. Just in case, it's yet another report of the campaign in America, to silence Israel's critics. What could be done, M Junaid Alam asks, when it was revealed that Israel was far more Goliath than David:
Enter the "new anti-Semitism." This doctrine turns reality on its head, declaring criticism of Israel's racist behavior to be itself racist ­ "anti-Semitic." Empathy for Palestinians being beaten, bullied, and bulldozed out of existence, the doctrine goes, is nothing but some disguised expression of Jew-hatred. Goose-stepping Germans and uprooted Palestinians are portrayed as part of the same unbroken line of anti-Semitism.
