But only a fool would think that there are not active attempts to supress criticism of Israeli government policy. Calling somebody an anti-semite for criticising israeli government policy is akin to calling somebody unamerican for criticising bush doctrine. This is my point.

There cannot be a double standard where we were disgusted at the medias refusal to question the whitehouse pre-iraq invasion for fear of being labelled unpatriotic etc. , but consider Israelis questioning Israels actions to be anti-semites.
