Rahola has not said, as CarolC implies, that everyone who disagrees with Israeli government policy is anti-Semitic.

I didn't imply that, nor did I state it. What I said, and what I still believe, is that some people who read that article will get that impression. I have no idea whether or not it was Rahola's intention for them to do so. And my only reason for making that observation was to try to clarify for John Hindsill what I percieved to be McGrath of Harlow's reason for posting the link to the article from Uri Avnery.

The reality in the United States, regardless of what Wolfgang might choose to believe about it, is that there are many people who do believe that all people who oppose the government of Israel are anti-Semites. In my oppinion, this belief distorts the debate in a way that helps no-one.
