No movement is immune to having fools or bad people in its ranks. But I think that anyone who is high-profile and gets publicity for pushing an anti-semitic angle is worthy of the suspicion that they're more than just a garden variety evil fool.

Farrakhan just serves a bircher function of attempting to widen schisms between the Black and Jewish communities. The NOI was never lefty in nature.
