The author's example of "from the left" antisemitism is the objection to Israel's Palestinian blockades, illegal settlements and the like. Then he goes off the rails in full Likud mode by proclaiming that this somehow represents "policies that would end Israel’s existence as a Jewish state." It's no wonder the ADL isn't taken seriously by many Jews. This is Greenblatt's whataboutism.
